Kaviar, also known as caviar, is a delicacy consisting of salt-cured fish eggs, typically harvested from sturgeon species such as beluga, osetra, or sevruga. Originating from the Caspian and Black Sea regions, it is a staple in luxury cuisine and celebrated for its rich, briny flavor and smooth, pearl-like texture. Nutritionally, kaviar is a rich source of high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B12, and selenium, contributing to heart health, brain function, and energy metabolism. However, it is also high in sodium, making moderation key to maintaining a balanced diet. Although traditionally associated with Russian and Persian gastronomy, kaviar is enjoyed worldwide, often served as a garnish or paired with blinis, crème fraîche, or toast. Its high nutritional value makes it a premium food choice, though its price and environmental sustainability are factors to consider when consuming this luxurious delicacy.
