How should caviar be stored?

How should caviar be served?

For a traditional tasting, place the opened tin on a bed of crushed ice, then serve the Rova Caviar using a mother-of-pearl, porcelain, unvarnished wood, or gold spoon (avoid metal, stainless steel, and silver as they can oxidize the caviar). Enjoy it as you prefer: pure, on toast, blinis, steamed potatoes, fresh pasta, with or without thick crème fraîche, alongside scrambled eggs, soft-boiled eggs, hard-boiled eggs, fresh or smoked salmon, scallop carpaccio, or beef tartare.

What to drink with caviar?

Traditionally, caviar is enjoyed with vodka, but you can also pair it with a glass of champagne, dry white wine, cognac, whisky, or sake. At Rova Caviar, it is also savored with smoked tea, a particularly refined and trendy non-alcoholic combination.

Can I freeze caviar?

To preserve its texture, caviar should never be frozen. Although it may be tempting to freeze caviar to extend its shelf life, this practice is strongly discouraged to maintain its texture: the delicate eggs may burst during thawing. To store caviar, place the tin horizontally in a refrigerator set between 0°C and 4°C.

To best prepare for your trip, it is recommended to check with the departure and arrival airports regarding the permitted amount of caviar. To keep your caviar fresh during the journey, place it in an insulated bag with two to three ice packs.
