In order not to encounter counterfeiting when buying caviar, you need to focus on three main criteria: the appearance of the product, its price and the place of production. The cost of high-quality caviar cannot be less than 6 thousand rubles per kilogram; stated Alexey Rudko, founder of the Kuril Coast fish store chain, in a conversation with NSN.
Speaking about the place of production, the expert noted that the caviar produced in the Far East is considered good. If the box says “made at sea”, it is better to refuse the purchase, as this is a sign of fraud. Irregularities during the production and transportation of the product may also reduce the quality of the product.
“You must understand that good caviar cannot be cheap. Now price averages range from six thousand rubles to eight thousand per kilogram. Pink salmon were the most caught this year, so it is more affordable, and chum salmon, sockeye salmon and coho salmon start at seven thousand at retail,” Rudko explained.
It is best to buy caviar in specialized fish stores. Moreover, the expert believes that it is better not to buy “green jars”, because last year’s caviar is often rolled mixed with imitation.
Experts also preach When choosing red caviar, pay attention to the composition, which should include only fish roe and salt. May contain preservatives or additives to maintain freshness.
