FAQs
1. General questions
What type of caviar can I buy at Oona Caviar?
Caviar from Siberian and Russian sturgeon (Osietra Carat).
What is the best way of serving caviar?
Caviar is served chilled, for example on a block of ice. Caviar connoisseurs prefer their caviar au naturel.
To serve this delicacy in a fitting manner, spoons made of horn, mother-of-pearl or gold are recommended. These materials do not taint the unique taste of the caviar. Under no circumstances should silver or metal spoons be used, as they would spoil the caviar’s taste. You can find a variety of mother-of-pearl and horn spoons in our online shop.
However, various other accompaniments such as blinis, buttered toast or baked potatoes are also suitable. These accompaniments should be as neutral as possible, so as not to overpower the unique flavour of the caviar. Caviar can also be used as an ingredient in dishes, for example to add the finishing touch to beef tartar or for warm entrées.
How should caviar be stored?
Fresh caviar should be stored chilled between -2°C and +2°C. Once opened, it should be consumed straight away.
