Tsarskaya Salmon Caviar – Wild Pink Salmon Roe, Low Salt Cure 200g

Tsarskaya Salmon Caviar by Red Pearl brings a traditional Russian-style presentation to the table in an elegant 200-gram (7.05 oz) glass jar. The name Tsarskaya, derived from the Russian word associated with the Tsar, reflects the product's connection to the rich tradition of Russian festive cuisine.

Made from wild Pink Salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha), this salmon roe features well-formed, bright red pearls with a firm texture and a characteristic gentle pop. The flavor is clean and savory, with delicate salinity and a subtle natural sweetness.

The caviar is prepared using the traditional Malosol method, a Russian term meaning “little salt.” The lightly salted preparation is designed to complement the natural flavor of the salmon roe without making it excessively salty.

According to the product information, Tsarskaya Salmon Caviar contains no artificial colors or preservatives, is certified Kosher by the Orthodox Union (OU), and is unpasteurized.
