How to Serve Ossetra Caviar Properly

Serving temperature: Serve thoroughly chilled. Ideally, the tin should be set on a bed of crushed ice.

Utensils: Use mother of pearl, bone, or non-metallic caviar spoons. Standard silver or stainless steel spoons will oxidize when they touch each other, giving off a harsh metallic taste.

Accompaniments: Serve your tasting with warm blinis, crème fraîche, or lightly toasted, unsalted bread points. The minimal accompaniments allow the natural flavor complexities of the caviar to shine.

Champagne & Caviar Pairings

The nutty, buttery richness of classic Ossetra caviar is spectacular with wine and spirits. Avoid sweet drinks that will compete with the brine. Choose instead a crisp, bone-dry Brut Champagne or an Extra Brut. The velvety fats of the roe are cut through by the zesty fizz of a fine champagne, which refreshes the palate between bites. For a more traditional touch, serve it up with top-shelf, ultra-chilled vodka.

Cold-Chain Storage and Freshness

The single most important aspect of keeping your fresh Ossetra caviar online order is to maintain an unbroken cold chain. Caviar is highly temperature sensitive and rapidly degrades at normal room temperatures.

Act immediately. Place the tin in the refrigerator upon delivery.

Placement: Store unopened in the coldest part of the refrigerator, typically the bottom shelf or back corner, ideally between 28°F and 32°F.

Avoid Fluctuations: Don’t open the fridge door over and over. Open it just before you’re about to serve the tin. Keep the tin sealed until just before serving.

Post Opening: Drink soon after opening. Once the air seal is broken, the roe should be consumed within two days for best flavor and textural integrity.
