Bottarga Gold - Bottarga di Muggine - Dried Mullet Fish Roe - Italian Bottarga Style - Made From Wild Caught Mullet Fish from St. Cathrina 3.5 oz - Recipe Book Included

I had written a mediocre review based on my total ignorance of the product. I had seen an intriguing recipe that called for bottarga, and ordered it with no previous experience. I was turned off by the color (as it didn't look like the product advertised) I was disappointed it didn't come with recipes (as advertised) I was miffed that the "contact us" email was not functional When I found their website, I then contacted them through "Whats App" and everything changed. I received a very thorough and thoughtful explanation regarding the color and maturity of the product. They showed genuine concern for my satisfaction. They apologized for the errant email contact and vowed to correct it, and they even sent the missing recipes. I found them to be totally empathetic and rather engaging. But, having a scientific background, I had to search deeper. I ordered another product from another company to compare. This is what I found. They were right, and they had a superior product in my estimation. (That's what these reviews are all about). I found this product to be more pleasing in taste. More rounded, not as harsh as the other product. This one, more subtle with layers of flavor, not single noted like the other. I'm certainly no expert on bottarga, but I will say, I will be ordering this product, again when my supply runs out. Oh, and sincere thanks for making the effort for kosher certification. That is priceless to me.

I have created a recipe to finally use my Bottarga, only to find out that it was no good to use when I’ve opened the packaging. Looks like the vacuum packaging had a poke or whole in it, because I could feel some air inside. It was completely hard, dry and looks like mold outside.

I was very pleased with the color and delightful taste with this Bottarga. The packaging is very professional and works as nice gift idea. Will make sure to order again.

This was my girdt time trying Bottega after seeing it on RecipeTV. What a find! I mostly use it shaved onto of scrambled eggs, but it also makes a great addition for various hors d'oeurves. It's not cheap, but a little goes a long way.

I did not like that it arrived too late for the dinner I needed it for.

Delicious. Seems to be aged longer than the "karasumi" I have tasted at high-end sushi bars and another bottarga I used to buy at an Italian market. One of the most profound ingredients you can put in your mouth.

Not as complex as I had hoped, but certainly a good product, but be sure to add enough to make its presence known!

Very tasty and delicious
