I noticed something strange. It's said you NEVER use metal utensils when serving/eating caviar because it badly affects the fish eggs...and yet...there is a big metal spoon in the caviar container, the waiter is making the tasting plate with metal utensils, and Andrew is eating it with a metal spoon and fork.

We saw this segment on Andrew's TV show quite some time ago. This brings back fond memories. My wife and I took a business trip with two dozen others to Leningrad, Russia, while still Soviet Communist prior to it reverting back to St. Petersburg. It was 1990. The beluga was fantastic but the Osetra Karat Amber Russian Caviar was the absolute to-die-for favorite of most of us. From Israel, today, it comes so close to the Russian variety back then, that I find no differentiation.

@@haroldcroy922 Sturgeons ARE endangered though. These fish reach sexually maturity at around 20 years old and yet when they spawn, people are taking the egg sacs for the sake of gourmet luxury. Its a status symbol, a stupid one at that. Like think about, its just salted fish eggs. Sturgeon that caviar comes from ranges from vulnerable to CRITICALLY endangered. Only ONE type is nowhere near that range. Its to the point where farm caviar is the new norm because its cheaper to farm raise fish but people still want and demand the "wild caught" type. Its the extremely delicate balance between survival for humans and the survival for nature that we really need to worry about (Hello? WE SEE CLIMATE CHANGE EVERY DAY). And while people try to do both, it just goes to show that as humans, there is no such thing as "cruelty free" in our diets.

Might be that Mr. Zimmern has more experience or just better taste than many other bloggers, might be that he's just better in describing what he tastes. Anyway he's convincing.

When he was eating the beef stroganoff I didn’t even see him use any sour cream

OMG, from the moment in which he put the metal spoon in the caviar tin, he ruined all....

If I had 3 ounces of caviar, I'd stretch it out with lots of tiny bites, a few grams each, letting a few eggs linger on the tongue at a time. Don't know how you can just wolf it down, the whole dish, in a few bites.

Exactly. All over the world we are taught never to use a metal spoon when serving caviar. Only mother of pearl spoon or solid gold is acceptable yet all over the net they use a metal spoon !

Those are some very expensive fish eggs. And for every teaspoon full eaten, there are 15 less sturgeon in the sea, can't say I see the logic in that, given the state of things.

My caviar is the white clump that comes from the fired smelt.
