Lighter in flavor than most other dry cured roes, cod bottarga is a great choice for those that find tuna and mullet roe "too strong". The cold water eggs come from Norwegian arcti c cod called "Skrei". These fish produce roe with a 2.6% fat content, much lower than the 25% fat content of popular mullet bottarga. The roe sacks are salted and hung outside to age for 10-15 weeks in the frigid temperatures of Norway. When ready to serve, cod bottarga is firm and ready to shave over any dish calling for delicate brine. Approximately 4 to 6 ounces per unit Refrigeration recommended but not required Show more
