Salmon Roe

Salmon roe, also commonly known as Red Caviar, is a food rich in vitamins A, C and D, amino acids, potassium and phosphorus. This type of caviar is characterized by a very bright orange color and a particularly large grain (5 to 6 mm). Characterized by a rich flavor, salmon roe is often used to prepare delectable sushi dishes or as a garnish for refined tartines.
Thanks to their buttery and slightly savory flavor, with rich sea overtones, in Russia salmon roe is served with typical blini pancakes and sour cream.

The company
Longino & Cardenal was established in 1988 and was the first Italian company to import fresh caviar from Iran: the intuition to import the raw material, repackage it and retail it with a precise identity adopting a new brand proved to be a winning idea, giving rise to a new and highly successful business model. Of course, salmon roe, carefully selected in line with our company philosophy, could not be left out from our product catalog.
Longino, a Swiss nobleman and Cardenal, a Cuban fisherman characterize the very essence of our mission: discovering Rare and Precious foods from around the world. We have been at the service of some the most demanding Italian and international chefs for more than 30 years, selecting the best caviar available on the market, and now also available for food enthusiasts and gourmands from all over Italy.

Chef's advice

Russian Blinis recipe:

- 100 g flour

- 100 g milk

- 60 g cream

- 1 egg

- 5 g yeast

Separate the egg yolk from the white and beat it in a bowl with the milk and cream, then proceed to add the flour and yeast and continue to whisk. Allow the batter to rest for about 1 hour. Add the stiffly beaten egg white to the mixture with a pinch of salt and fold in gently to avoid deflating the batter.
Pour the mixture using a ladle in a hot non-stick pan: cook for a couple of minutes on each side so that they puff-up and brown, then serve the warm blini with 44% crème crue and salmon roe to taste.
