THIS RECIPE FEATURES:
Siberian Sturgeon Caviar
With a beautifully soft texture and medium-sized black pearl, Siberian Sturgeon caviar is simply satisfying. Pleasantly nutty and briny, this caviar is farmed near a nature reserve where crystal clear waters help produce a noticeably clean finish. Siberian Sturgeon is actually our owner’s caviar of choice — she loves the tasting notes of parmesan cheese and the versatility of its flavor profile.
