Where does Hackleback caviar come from?

Unlike more classic caviars like Osetra or Sevruga, which are naturally found in seawater, Hackleback sturgeon caviar comes from a sturgeon fish that is found in freshwater. It’s also fully wild-caught, so this is a wild caviar, from the funny-looking Scaphirhynchus Platorynchus, which is also called a sand sturgeon or switchtail, for a long filament that’s found on the fin. Because this wild fish reproduces relatively fast as compared to Caspian Sea caviar, it’s the only commercially fished sturgeon in the United States.

American Hackleback caviar has a distinct taste and texture that caviar lovers enjoy immensely, but don’t make the mistake of expecting this particular caviar to taste the same as say, an Osetra or Beluga (look for it at link). The charcoal black eggs of Hackleback are nutty and briny, but with a characteristic sort of deep flavor that caviar lovers adore, a crisp burst of flavor, and a butter texture.

How To Serve

It’s a great caviar to serve on special occasions, having nothing to envy other high-end roes. You may serve it the traditional way – on blini and toast points, with crème fraiche, or use to it garnish dishes, to top quail eggs, soups, and other unique preparations.

Price of Hackleback

Because Hackleback fish is readily available, this is one of the most inexpensive true sturgeon caviars in the market. The price of caviar goes up the rarer the caviar itself is, and for slow-growing sturgeon like Beluga, Sevruga, and Osetra, that means almost 20 years until the caviar can be harvested, bringing the price sky-high. Hackleback caviar price is relatively low, which makes this the perfect roe to buy in larger quantities, and for any occasion.
