Salmon roe is a different product, not a lesser one
True caviar is the salt-cured roe of sturgeon. Salmon roe — red caviar, from wild chum and other Pacific salmon — is a larger, brighter, translucent pearl with a fresh saline pop.
That makes it the right roe for breakfast service, canapé programmes and generous garnish work, where sturgeon caviar would be extravagant. Wild chum roe is prized for its pearl size and a clean finish without the muddiness of farmed roe.
Serving red caviar well
Serve chilled, over ice, from a non-metallic spoon — mother-of-pearl, bone or glass. Silver and steel react with the eggs and leave a metallic edge.
Keep accompaniments restrained: blini, crème fraîche, or simply on its own. Open only what will be used, press the surface flat, reseal and keep cold between services.
Storage and the cold chain
Roe is time-sensitive. We deliver it in a temperature-logged chilled chain at 0–4°C with origin documentation on every consignment.
Never freeze caviar at home: freezing ruptures the grain and it turns to paste when thawed. Once opened, treat it as a two-to-three-day product.
Questions buyers ask
What is the difference between red caviar and black caviar?
Black caviar is sturgeon roe — beluga, osetra, sevruga or Siberian. Red caviar is salmon roe: a larger, translucent orange-red pearl with a bright, bursting texture, sitting in a very different price bracket.
How much red caviar per person?
As a tasting, 10–15 g per person; as a course, 30 g or more. For canapés and breakfast service, a 1 kg trade format stretches across a large number of covers.
Can red caviar be frozen?
It should not be frozen once it reaches your kitchen. Freezing ruptures the grain and the roe turns to paste on thawing. Keep it chilled and use it within two to three days of opening.
Do you deliver caviar across the UAE?
Yes, chilled and temperature-logged, by appointment across Dubai and the wider UAE.
