Ingredients

Caviar

Accompaniments

Preparation

Preparation

1. Prepare the Serving Dish

Choose a cold serving dish or plate that will enhance the presentation of the caviar. Make sure it is clean and ready for serving.

2. Chill the Caviar

Prior to serving, chill the Ossetra caviar in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This enhances the flavor and texture.

3. Prepare Accompaniments

While the caviar is chilling, prepare the accompaniments. Chop the chives finely and set them aside. If you're using blinis, prepare them according to package instructions, or toast the bread until golden brown.

Serving

4. Assemble the Dish

Once the caviar is chilled, carefully spoon it onto the serving dish. Use a non-metallic spoon to avoid altering the taste.

5. Add Accompaniments

Place the crème fraîche in a small bowl or dollop it around the caviar. Scatter the chopped chives over the caviar and add lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the caviar.

6. Serve with Blinis or Toast

Arrange the blinis or toasted bread around the caviar, allowing guests to serve themselves. It's best to enjoy the caviar immediately after preparation for maximum freshness.
