Caviar Environmental concerns

The price of Beluga caviar has sky rocketed due to the environmental ramifications of over fishing beluga caviar especially in the Caspian Sea and the Black Seas.

American caviar is as good as foreign caviar and is at the same perfect level as imported caviar and its also cheaper. Most people cannot tell the difference between American paddlefish and Caspian beluga. American caviar includes American rainbow trout roe, paddlefish roe and caviar from domestically farmed hackleback and white sturgeon. The white sturgeon caviar is as good as the Caspian caviar. The smooth gentle, light, taste is gaining recognition from coast to coast. It is said that the soft nutty taste and smooth sensation of firm beads rolling around in your mouth increases the quality of caviar at every stage.

Some chefs like the light sensation of younger caviar verses the aged caviar.

Like champagne which applies to sparking wine, “caviar” is also describes as champagne because it describes the roe of sturgeon which comprises of 27 species of this torpedo-shaped, snout-nosed fish. The sturgeon-the Rolls-Royce fish produces the big, dark sought-after pears of beluga.

Beluga caviar can cost as much as $5,000 per kilogram in the USA
