Caviar Storage Information
To preserve the quality and flavor of your caviar, please follow the instructions below to maintain its freshness:
- If your perishable items arrive with melted ice packs, don’t worry. The ice packs are wrapped in plastic and housed in a Styrofoam cooler to keep your products fresh. The sealed boxes maintain a cool environment, ensuring product quality during delivery.
- Refrigerate sturgeon caviar at or below 40°F. Salmon and trout roe can also be frozen for up to 1 year.
- Unopened, all caviar and roe last up to 6 weeks. Once opened, consume within 3 to 5 days.
- An oily residue is normal and won’t affect quality; just wipe it away with a damp cloth.
Caviar Serving Tips
- Use a mother-of-pearl or non-metallic spoon to preserve the delicate flavor, as metal can oxidize and damage the pearls.
- The ideal serving size is 7-28 grams (¼-1 oz) per person.
- Caviar is best served chilled, so place the container on a bed of ice.
- Try the traditional method of tasting caviar by placing a small amount on the back of your hand between your thumb and index finger—caviar enthusiasts swear by this technique to fully appreciate its subtle nuances.
- Popular garnishes include chopped chives, red onions, sliced pickles, and lemon slices.
- The classic pairing for caviar is champagne or vodka.
