 HOW TO CHOOSE A FINE CAVIAR |
|  Select caviar that has been processed "malassol" or "little salt."
Taste all three kinds of caviar to determine what you like. Beluga caviar is light or dark gray with largish roe. Osetra is golden or dark brown, also with large eggs. Osetra eggs are occasionally light gold. Sevruga roe are small and dark gray.
Understand that caviar is graded according to the size and color of the egg. Some people swear by lighter caviar with larger eggs, but others say the grading doesn't necessarily make a difference.
Avoid using silver or stainless steel spoons when eating caviar - they give the eggs a tinny taste. Traditionally, horn, bone, mother-of-pearl or even gold spoons are used, but you can use glass or wood.
Ask when the caviar was harvested when making your purchase. You want the freshest caviar you can get.

| How to Choose a Fine Caviar |
 Caviar is the processed, salted roe of various species of fish, most notably sturgeon. It is commercially marketed throughout the world as a delicacy and is eaten principally as a garnish or spread, as with hors d'oeuvres. |

| Tips |
Store caviar at 26 to 32 degrees F (in the coldest part of your refrigerator, not the freezer) in the original tin.
Unopened caviar lasts for 1 1/2 weeks.
Finish the tin, or store it with a piece of plastic wrap tightly pressed onto the eggs' surface to dispel air. Turn the tin once or twice a day to distribute oils. |
