Because caviar is perishable, it is usually recommended to store caviar in glassware filled with crushed ice to keep it fresh. The method of taking caviar is also very particular.

Do you want caviar in the refrigerator?
Caviar can be refrigerated in the refrigerator. Generally speaking, caviar can be stored at -2 ~ 4℃ for 18 months, and it can only be stored in the refrigerator for 6 ~ 8 weeks.

Therefore, we usually buy as much as we can, and eat it all at once when we buy it home. Open caviar can only be stored for 48 hours, and it needs to be refrigerated in the refrigerator. The opened caviar needs to be sealed again and kept away from other foods in the refrigerator to avoid being polluted by other flavors and affecting the umami taste of caviar.
