Sterlet Caviar Description
Sterlet caviar is a type of caviar that comes from the Sterlet sturgeon, a small fish species found in the Caspian Sea. It has a velvety texture and a strong, intense flavor that's often described as nutty, buttery, or robust. The caviar pearls are small and silver-grey in color, and can range from light to dark grey.
Product Features
When serving this caviar to your guests, avoid metal vessels and utensils, as these can produce a metallic flavor that compromises the pure, fresh taste of this premium product. Glass, ceramic, and bone serving ware are suitable options, though mother of pearl and gold are the most traditional and luxuriant choices.
Serve this caviar very cold by transferring it to a serving bowl nestled inside a larger bowl filled with crushed ice. Many purists insist that caviar is best enjoyed on its own; for a true experience of the flavor of this premium product, invite your guests to scoop up a small spoonful of caviar and use their tongues to gently press it onto the roofs of their mouths, without chewing.
Serve on blini with creme fraiche to enjoy it in the classic, Russian way, or use as a sophisticated garnish for all manner of dishes and passed appetizers.
