BOTTARGA MULLET ROE

Description

Hand-cured in Clearwater Florida this grey mullet bottarga is one of the most popular dried fish roes in the world. Softer in texture than most other types the orange roe pouches are salted pressed and desiccated for weeks until the bottarga glistens with a wax-like feel and appearance. While milder than other dried roes the brine flavor of mullet bottarga is still pronounced with a hint of bitterness that pairs well with the salt content. Enjoy this delicious sea-flavored delicacy as a grated or shaved topping (as one would use truffles) or as the featured ingredient in appetizers entrees and pasta dishes such as spaghetti alla bottarga.
