Supreme Bottarga Sardinian Gold Bottarga 6 oz

Overview

Sardinian Gold is a hand made, imported Sardinian bottarga, a cured roe delicacy sold ready to eat in roughly 6 oz units. Color varies unit to unit since it is handcrafted, and it is kosher certified.

Despite sitting in a caviar and roe category, this is bottarga, a firm, salt-cured lobe meant to be thinly sliced or grated, not spooned like fresh caviar. That distinction matters more than any spec on the page for deciding whether this is the right product.

• About 6 oz unit of Sardinian bottarga
• Hand made and imported from Sardinia, Italy
• Kosher certified, ready to eat
• Briny, oceanic cured-roe flavor

Who it's for

This suits home cooks making bottarga pasta or antipasto who want an authentic, hand made product imported from Sardinia. It is not a substitute for spoonable caviar, since bottarga is a firm, cured lobe meant for slicing or grating.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

Bottarga is a cured, dried roe product meant to be thinly sliced or grated rather than spooned like fresh caviar, and this one arrives ready to eat with no further curing needed. Because each lobe is hand made in Sardinia rather than machine processed, color and appearance vary from unit to unit, which is normal for the product rather than a defect.
