- Simulated caviar,
also named as imitation caviar is defined as salted roe that comes from
a fish other than the sturgeon, and can be classified as a caviar
substitute.
- Roe
is the generic term for female fish eggs (hard roe) or the milt of male
fish (soft roe). Mfish roe is edible. Some popular roes come from
sturgeon, lumpfish, salmon, and whitefish. Roe is marketed fresh,
frozen, in brine, smoked and canned.
-
Human consumption is one
amongst several final destinations for fish roe. Fish eggs mayutilised
as bait for recreational fish angling. After fertilisation, they may be
traded and used for fish farming or for hatchery programmes.
- The pharmaceutical
and cosmetic industries also
appreciate fish eggs for their specific chemical properties -
The eggs of more than 38
species of fish, besides sturgeons, and three species of other animals
are used to produce substitutes.
-
About 15 ‘caviar-like’
preparations are used as raw materials – such as fish flesh, seaweed,
and others mixtures. Five products can be considered simulations; few
use caviar as a component in their production recipes.
- A variety of objects
(unrelated to caviar) are currently marketed, but use ‘caviar’ in their
trademark.
