Bright orange in colour, salmon roe—often referred to as red caviar—conceals a profound freshness and offers the intense pleasure of a briny wave. These delicate eggs roll gently on the palate and pop sweetly on the tongue, releasing strong, briny flavours that epitomize high-quality seafood. Their premium taste makes them an ideal choice for any culinary creation.
Perfect as an appetizer, salmon roe shines when served on blinis with an aperitif, delicately placed on a salad, or topping a green-vegetable soup. For sushi enthusiasts, wrapping them in nori alongside wild-caught salmon enhances their natural richness, while pairing them with smoked salmon complements their gourmet profile. These versatile eggs also elevate hot dishes, such as a creamy pasta topping, where their briny flavours add depth and sophistication.
Harvested from the North Pacific in autumn (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha), our salmon roe is treated with a lightly salted brine, following Petrossian's uncompromising standards for excellence. A truly gourmet product to be consumed without moderation.
From the robust and thorough (chilled) packaging to the quality of the product - you can’t argue the freshness. A real treat for the holidays. I’d highly recommend Petrossian and look forward to shopping again soon!
