@cxa340 2 ай бұрын

Caviar/Roe is definitely an acquired taste and most people would not life it - first you have to really like fish, because it can have a very fishy taste, second you have to be a person who really likes things salty because they are heavily salted, and third is the texture which a lot of people will find gross - tapioca pearls are the only thing I can think of that are close. I love caviar in top of a deviled egg etc, or on pasta, but I can see if you are someone who doesn’t like salty fishy fish this is not a good you will enjoy

@KenS1267 3 ай бұрын

There is farmed and ranched caviar. If you cannot verify that is the source do not buy or eat caviar. Harvesting wild caviar is going to wipe out the wild sturgeon populations in the Caspian and Back Seas. There is extremely important for any caviar claiming to be Beluga or Ossetra. While there are farmed sturgeon of both species there remains a lot of poaching going on as well. If you buy caviar like the native American White Sturgeon instead it reduces the demand.

I nearly fainted, I told him what if I don't like this and he said he didn't care, he'd get me raw oysters instead. He loads up a blini with caviar, puts a gob of sour cream on it and hands it to me. The oysters were delicious.
