Caviar is an expensive delicacy consisting of the unfertilised eggs or roe of a fish known as sturgeon, brining with saline solution. Classic caviar comes from Iran or Russia, harvested by commercial fishermen working in the Caspian Sea.
Apparently, a specific species of sturgeon called Beluga is considered to be the best caviar in the world, and the most expensive; with present market prices ranging from USD 7,000 to USD 10,000 per kg. |
Caviar should never be served using metal based utensils which will tarnish its taste by developing a metallic-like taste to the caviar. Ideally, caviar should be scooped out using spoons made of bone or mother of pearl. And caviar served on a small cracker should be eaten in just one bite. To the caviar enthusiast, the flavour of caviar is often characterised as an intense explosion of complex flavours.
