Classic caviar serving
Classic caviar accompaniments and how to serve caviar correctly.
- Always keep your caviar in its original unopened tin or jar in the refrigerator until just before ready to serve.
- Do not open the tin or jar before you are ready to serve.
- Take it out of the refrigerator 15 minutes to an hour before you intend to serve to it.
- Use a mother of pearl caviar spoon or a bone, gold plated. Never use stainless steel or silver to serve caviar.
- Once opened, the caviar tin or jar should be consumed within an hour for maximum taste.
The two most popular beverages served are chilled vodka, a very dry Champagne or sparkling wine. A dry white wine also works well.
