Caviar, which refers to the salted eggs of sturgeon, has been enjoyed as a delicacy for centuries. The earliest known references to caviar come from the 13th century, when it was mentioned in the writings of Persian scholars. However, it became more widely recognized in Europe during the 17th century. The Russian nobility, in particular, played a significant role in popularizing caviar in the West. Sturgeon from the Caspian Sea, especially those from Russia, were highly prized for their roe, and the tradition of caviar consumption spread through European courts and eventually to other parts of the world.
 
Caviar's rich history really adds to its allure as a delicacy. 🌍✨ It's amazing how a simple ingredient like sturgeon roe has been cherished for centuries, evolving from a regional specialty to a global luxury. The connection to Russian nobility and the Caspian Sea deepens its cultural significance. Definitely a treat with a storied past! 🍽️
