The Russians revealed the old way from the 90s, how not to overpay for red caviar

KP.RU correspondent Vladimir Perekrest shared his personal experience of buying red caviar at an affordable price. In one of the Moscow shops, he bought a three-kilogram un gutted trout for 1300 rubles per kilogram and found almost 300 grams of caviar inside. Thus, along with the fish, he got an additional delicacy, for which he did not have to pay separately.

The journalist noted that this method of buying resembles a practice common in the 1990s. Then, when choosing a frozen ket or pink salmon, buyers estimated not only the condition of the gills, but also the size of the abdomen: it was often possible to understand whether there was caviar inside the fish.

Perekrest explained that after defrosting the fish can be cut, extract the eggs and salt it yourself. As a result, the delicacy is much cheaper, and the buyer also gets the fish itself.

Found caviar can be prepared for the nearest meal or frozen to serve to the New Year's table. According to the journalist, in the shops and now there is a trout with such a “bonus”, so when buying it is worth paying attention to the un gutted fish.

Earlier, Russian fishermen found a way to get red caviar to the New Year’s table.

Also, expert Alexander Saveliev told whether to buy light caviar instead of red.
