as an American who dropped $500ish, ordering caviar for my folks anniversary dinner next weekend.. i want it to be special,, so some tips to bump it up.. helps.
As a child of Russian immigrants, I have fond memories of having my morning Rye toast with a schmeer of butter and Caspian Ossetra fish roe... (aka blk caviar)
Michael - yes, very. Try salmon caviar as a much cheaper introduction. It’s available in most of the better supermarkets. Don’t bother with lumpfish caviar (even cheaper) as it tastes far too salty and gritty - at least salmon caviar in flavour and texture is comparable to the upmarket black ones, though not as good of course, but it gives you an idea of the taste and aroma and the way the eggs burst in your mouth.
You chew it, the flavor is inside. The taste and texture is kinda like salty, fishy bubble tea balls for red caviar and a bit more buttery and much smaller for black caviar.
@@wolfyklip actually I should not, because English isn’t my native language, and in Russian we use the same word for both. But thank you for informing me, I won’t mix them again!
As A russian i can tell you that you eat it how ever you like... There is no thing about it. It is food. Eat it...

What texture would you compare it to? Do you chew it or just swallow it? Forgive my ignorance, I am nervous to try it.

That doesn't sound tasty at all.
Clint DeMuro it is really good actually
Very good & informative & thank you
I love sturgeon caviar very much, but Petrosyan has it very expensive. I buy from Lemberg - good price and quality.
Golden spoon is perfect for eating caviar.
Don't everybody has them?
I like my special reserve Osetra caviar on wonderbread and topped with salami.
When i worked at Disney the executive chef Wade of magic Kingdom told us to use a silver spoon 🤦
ha wow!
@@sonnypearce5279 they have a lot of idiots that work at Disney
As a Russian, I can say that black caviar is overhyped and overestimated. Red caviar is way tastier, black caviar is nothing more than a status thing.
As a Russian you should know that red caviar is salmon roe NOT true caviar!
I recently had Salmon roe from wild Salmon for the first time. What a difference to the 'regular' Salmon roe. Now I am a fan of it as well.
