Dom Petroff Oscietra Caviar

£62.00

Oscietra caviar from Dom Petroff — amber-toned grains with a balanced flavour built around iodised, nutty notes and a delicate, yielding texture. This is a classic Oscietra profile: less assertive than Baerii, more approachable than Beluga, and with a complexity that reveals itself gradually across the palate. The colour is distinctive — an elegant amber with golden highlights, lighter than most Oscietra caviars and immediately recognisable in the tin.

The roe comes from the Russian sturgeon (Acipenser gueldenstaedtii), sourced from selected farms in Europe and Madagascar depending on season and availability. Dom Petroff is the sister company to Petrossian, the Parisian house that first introduced caviar to France in 1920. Based in Angers and established in 1979, Dom Petroff draws on the same sourcing network and expertise, with a reputation built on rigorous selection from high-quality farms worldwide. Rather than operating their own sturgeon farms, Dom Petroff's expertise lies in sourcing, selecting, and conditioning: their specialists assess batches for flavour, texture, firmness, and colour, then condition and pack the caviar in their French workshops. Every tin includes the species name and full traceability. As the Oscietra sturgeon takes 8–10 years to reach maturity, the quality of the farm and the conditions in which the fish are raised matter as much as the origin.

Oscietra sits in the middle of the caviar spectrum — less marine than Baerii, less rare than Beluga — and is often the variety that converts people who think they do not like caviar. Its nutty, subtly iodised character works well on its own, but also has the versatility to pair with food without being overwhelmed.

Producer: Dom Petroff (sister company to Petrossian), Angers, France

Ingredients: Russian sturgeon roe (Acipenser gueldenstaedtii) (fish), salt, E285 preservative (borax)

Storage: Refrigerate at 0–4°C. Once opened, consume within 2–3 days.

Net: 30g / 50g

Allergens: Fish (sturgeon)

Place the unopened tin in the refrigerator on the lowest shelf, where it is coldest. Remove 5–10 minutes before serving to allow the caviar to come to just below room temperature — this is when the flavour and aroma are at their fullest.

Open the tin gently and serve directly from it, set on a bed of crushed ice if you have it. Use a mother-of-pearl, bone, or glass spoon — never metal, which can react with the roe and alter the flavour.

For a first tasting, eat the caviar on its own. Take a small spoonful and let it rest on the tongue before pressing the grains gently against the roof of the mouth. The first spoonful acclimatises the palate; the second is where the full nutty, iodised character of the Oscietra develops.

For a classic serve, spoon the caviar onto blinis with a small dollop of crème fraîche and, if you like, a scattering of finely chopped chives. Keep accompaniments neutral — plain crisps, warm boiled new potatoes, or a simple piece of lightly buttered toast all work well. Oscietra's balanced character also makes it a natural partner for scrambled eggs, seared scallops, or smoked salmon canapés.

Once opened, press a small piece of cling film directly onto the surface of the remaining caviar before replacing the lid and returning it to the refrigerator. Consume within 2–3 days.
