Siberian Caviar

What is Siberian caviar?

Siberian caviar (Baerii) is a premium-quality delicacy coming from the Siberian Sturgeon (aka Acipenser baerii). It is one of the high-end caviars, characterized by a mild taste with nutty undertones and a smooth texture, and a dark color that varies from black to anthracite (dark grey).

Siberian sturgeon caviar has a moderate pearl size in general, and has elastic and shiny pearls that make it quite unique. It is sometimes called Russian (russe) caviar mainly because of the origins of the Siberian Sturgeon. However, they do refer to the exact same type of caviar.

What Does It Taste Like?

The taste of Siberian caviar is unique, characterized by a smooth, velvety texture and a distinct flavor. There are many different types of caviar and roe, but good caviar is always considered a delicacy because of the unique flavor and texture. It usually depends on personal preferences, but premium-quality caviar generally appeals to everyone.

Another aspect that you should keep in mind is whether you are going to eat Siberian sturgeon caviar with or without accompaniments. If you are one of those individuals who prefer to appreciate the original taste of this delicacy, you may prefer to enjoy it without any accompaniments on the mother-of-pearl spoon as metal can compromise the taste.

However, if you prefer to prepare the dish with caviar and serve it to your loved ones, you can find a lot of recipes on our website. Please keep in mind that it is always preferable to eat it with delicate accompaniments that do not overpower the taste of caviar. For instance, such options can be pancakes (Russian blinis), toast points, chips, and crackers.

What determines the quality of caviar?

Siberian caviar is a high-quality product, and this characteristic is derived from multiple different factors.

• How is it harvested: Caviar harvesting is a manual process, and the experience of the employees is a crucial factor. The delicacy with which it is harvested can be directly reflected in the quality of the product.
• Farmed vs. Wild Harvesting Methods: Whether caviar is harvested from farms or the natural environment plays a significant role. As some of the species of sturgeon are endangered, natural harvesting methods when sturgeon is about to lay eggs in the river are prohibited in order to replenish the numbers of these endangered species. Moreover, it is noteworthy that a controlled environment is more convenient for maintaining a mild flavor and consistent quality, as well as avoiding contamination from polluted waters.
• Storing and transportation methods: As it is a delicate product, it is crucial to store it in the fridge at -2°C to 0°C and to transport it using temperature-controlled logistics.

When it comes to Siberian sturgeon caviar, we make sure that we take into consideration all the important aspects mentioned above in order to provide the highest quality product.

What Health Benefits Does It Provide?

Siberian caviar offers numerous health benefits, as it is a rich source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, Choline, and various vitamins and minerals, including vitamin B12, Vitamin D, Zinc, Magnesium, Iron, and Selenium. Many food products provide health benefits, but there is no comparison with Siberian sturgeon caviar, as it can be considered a nutrient-rich superfood.

Eating most types of roe in moderation is considered safe during pregnancy. However, for pregnant women, it is always preferable to eat pasteurized caviar as non-pasteurized may contain Listeria bacteria that is harmless for healthy adults but can be dangerous for pregnant women.
