The American Paddlefish Caviar is considered a close cousin of the sturgeon and was first discovered over 300 million years ago. Although not as popular as other caviars, it still produces eggs the size of many well-known sturgeon, with a rich and smooth earthy taste. This prized joy is the perfect less-expensive alternative to sturgeon roes. Origin: USA Flavor: rich, smooth, earthy Size: small and firm Color: range from gray, dark gray, light gold
