Preserving caviar correctly is crucial to ensuring its taste and quality. Caviar is a luxury product that requires care and precision in handling to be fully enjoyed. Here is a guide to help you preserve your caviar in the best possible way.
Packaging and Delivery
We send the caviar carefully packed to maintain its quality during transport. Each caviar delivery is packaged in a thermal box, along with gel pads that keep the caviar at the right temperature for up to 48 hours. This ensures that your caviar arrives in perfect condition, ready to be enjoyed.
Storage After Receipt
Once you have received your package, it is important to immediately transfer the caviar to the refrigerator. Here are some tips on how to best preserve your caviar:
1. Unopened Caviar Package
- Placement in the Refrigerator: Store the unopened caviar package at the bottom of the refrigerator or in the coldest part. The optimal temperature is between -2°C and +2°C. This low temperature is ideal for preserving the caviar’s flavor and texture.
- Avoid Temperature Changes: Caviar is sensitive to temperature changes, so it is important to avoid moving the package in and out of the refrigerator. Keep the caviar in a place where the temperature is constant.
2. Opened Caviar Package
- Use Within 3 Days: Once the caviar package has been opened, you should consume the caviar within 3 days to enjoy the best taste and texture.
- Seal the Package Well: To preserve the flavor and avoid exposure to air, cover the opened package with plastic wrap or transfer the caviar to an airtight container before placing it back in the refrigerator.
Tips for Serving
- Serve Cold: When you are ready to serve, take the caviar out of the refrigerator and let it rest at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes. This allows the flavor to develop and provides an optimal experience.
- Avoid Metal Utensils: Never use metal utensils when serving, as this can negatively affect the taste. Instead, use spoons made of mother-of-pearl, plastic, or porcelain.
- Creative Serving Ideas: Try serving the caviar on traditional blinis with a dollop of crème fraîche, or as a sophisticated topping on an egg dish. The combination of flavor and texture provides a fantastic gourmet experience.
Conclusion
By following these simple yet important steps, you can ensure that your caviar retains its quality and taste. Whether you are enjoying the caviar yourself or serving it to guests, properly stored caviar will always deliver a first-class taste experience.
