“Poutargue” (or “Boutargue” or Mediterranean caviar) is a speciality made from dried, salted mullet roe. Originally found along the coasts of the Mediterranean basin, ours is micro-produced in France in the Bouches du Rhone (13).
To drink with a white: Alsace Riesling, coasts of Provence, muscadet wine, champagne or creaming d' Alsace.
This rich delicacy will deliciously enhance the flavours of your dishes (please see our recipes)! Please note that Poutargue is always consumed raw! Poutargue keeps for 6 months in dry, refrigerated conditions. Once opened, please protect from other fridge odours.
Health wise, Pourtague is 100% natural and contains no additives or colouring agents. It is an excellent source of calcium, vitamins A, D & B, magnesium, selenium, phosphorous, iodine and fluorine. Of course being a fatty fish it is also full of Omega 3!
