From the third year, we give an ultrasound to all
fishes from a same generation to isolate the females. The males are
kept to be transformed, they offer a very tasty flesh marketing in
fillets. It is with the development of the ovarian poach that we
recognize the future producer. Females are bred during 5 to 7 years
and regularly followed regarding the size of eggs again by an
ultrasound control and by a biopsy. |
These modern technologies very
perfected allow to produce only a top quality caviar regarding the size
and texture of grains.
The Aquitaine caviar is different from the other caviars of Caspienne.
It is born of acipenser Baeri (Siberian sturgeon), the only one
authorized in farming in France.
It is also impossible to compare Sevruga and Oscietre, the caviar of
Baeri is a different product. The only reference is the size of grains
which places our product above a Sevroga and in the same category above
a great Oscietre (2,7 mm diameter).
All sturgeons went into the laboratory where before they are biopsied
and we know in advance the size, the colour and the firmness of grains..
That makes easier constitution of
lots and explains why we do not make today upmarket products.
Females go into the laboratory, they are presented by the ventral
side for the constitution of lots. This operation is very precise
and determining regarding the visual aspect of product. Eggs are
sifted, rinsed, strained and salt. |
