Reference - Caviar Sevruga Caviar
The Sevruga sturgeon produces the smallest roe of the three main caviar varieties. More plentiful than the other two, it is also the least expensive. Its roe is black to very light grey in color and, like Beluga, it has a buttery flavor, but saltier, richer, and more intense. It's unique flavor is highly valued.
Tasty, Less Expensive Alternatives Farmed Caviar Few realize that the United States used to
produce about 90% of the world's caviar. It was so plentiful that it was served in saloons like pretzels are today. As supply dwindled, however, so did production. The U.S. and more than a dozen other countries in similar circumstances have begun sturgeon farming operations to preserve both the species and the industry. Commonly farmed varieties are Osetra, Baerii, and White Sturgeon.
People should live as well as farm-raised sturgeon. They swim in artesian well water, are fed the ideal, toxin-free diet, and have no predators. Of course, they do give their all for the cause in the end. Their roe is harvested at the ideal time for premium quality caviar. For consumers it all means a consistently high quality, lower-priced caviar, not from endangered stock. Try it.
Salmon Caviar American Caviar
Sometimes misleadingly used to refer to any caviar from America, it actually refers to American lake sturgeon as opposed to Caspian Sea sturgeon. (There's an old story in my family about a fisherman, a small fishing boat, a sturgeon, and a long, long ride up and down the river.) Its roe is very similar in characteristics to Caspian Sevruga caviar.
Paddlefish Caviar
With its clear, glossy beads, buttery flavor, and steel gray to light or even golden-gray roe, this is a good substitute for Beluga caviar. It is sometimes marketed as American caviar.
Hackleback Caviar
This caviar combines the sweet, nutty, and buttery characteristics of other caviars. Its roe is a rich, glossy black color of medium size, firm.
Aircare FACTS Initial Service Training
This bright golden-orange or reddish-orange caviar is the favorite of sushi chefs everywhere. Its juicy medium to large sized roe, even larger than Beluga, has a distinctive popping characteristic in the mouth and a fairly intense salmon flavor. And because salmon have scales, salmon caviar is considered a kosher food.
Whitefish Caviar
This is a small-grained, almost crunchy caviar of the salmon family, with a distinctive natural golden color and mild flavor. Another favorite of chefs. Whitefish roe is sometimes infused with ginger, truffle or saffron flavors for added interest.
Trout Caviar
This is an interesting caviar, said to be good enough to eat off the spoon. It has large, golden-orange beads and a subtle flavor. It has a nice 'pop' like salmon roes.
Lumpfish Caviar
This is a very inexpensive yet versatile caviar from cold, Nordic waters, surprisingly good- tasting. It has a very fine-grained, crunchy
11 Bowfin Caviar
This caviar, more commonly know by its Cajun name, Choupique, is considered another of the better substitutes for Beluga. It has a distinctively sturgeon essence, with a mild flavor and firm, black beads, although smaller in size than Beluga.
