Purists like to enjoy it on its own to savour its true flavour. It can also be served in a salad or in any type of warm or cold recipe that you can conjure up with your imagination.

Our Coupe du Tsar® Baltic smoked salmon is made with the most tender part of the fillet. Fished in the Baltic Sea, close to the Polish coast, this wild salmon is commonly referred to as ‘Baltic Blonde Salmon’ because of its very light colour, which is due to a diet rich in herring and sprat. The texture and flavour of this salmon are simply indescribable. Wild, filleted salmon, salted by hand with sea salt, and delicately smoked over beechwood, then hung vertically in a traditional oven.

SWEET AND SOUR RUSSIAN GHERKINSRussian-style malossol gherkins are a great classic for serving with salmon and other Petrossian delicacies. In Russian cuisine, ‘malossol’ is the term used for foods that are very lightly salted. Malossol caviar is the iconic symbol of the Maison Petrossian. Originating in Poland, these large pickles are first prepared in a brine that’s very lightly salted and is seasoned with many highly aromatic herbs and spices like dill, garlic and mustard seeds. This legendary recipe gives these Russian-style malossol pickles a more sweet and sour flavour compared to French pickles.Weight 910g -
THE CLASSIC, BY PETROSSIANThis classic tarama is salted, beechwood-smoked cod roe blended into a paste. Then the tarama is mixed with different ingredients to make a flavourful, luxurious cream to which we add a bit more cream for extra sweetness. This tarama is based on a traditional Greek recipe made with crème fraiche, created in 1930 by the Petrossian family. It has a pure, sweet flavour that’s typical of smoked roe, and is perfect for an aperitif, enjoyed with crunchy raw vegetables or on toast.100g -
