Today I will show you how we eat caviar at home in Latvia. Just take one look at these beautiful little canapes and you will see why these tiny bubbles of salty goodness make any table look a bit more fancy. I grew up eating caviar, as did many of my other Russian born friends. For us it was a part of life. A thick coat of butter on top of a white bread sprinkled with caviar was prevalent at most breakfasts, lunches and even dinner parties. Caviar is fish roe, fish eggs that have been treated with salt. And there are many different types of caviar. I grew up eating mostly red caviar, as you see pictured here but black caviar was also a frequent visitor to our dinner tables. It was quite the trend in Latvia to have caviar open faced sandwiches on any dinner table in the old country.
