"caviar spoon" の定義と意味

What is a "caviar spoon"?

A caviar spoon is a specialized utensil designed specifically for serving and enjoying caviar, a delicacy consisting of salt-cured fish roe. Caviar spoons are typically made from materials such as mother-of-pearl, bone, or non-reactive metals like stainless steel, silver, or gold. This choice of material ensures that the delicate flavor and texture of the caviar remain uncompromised during serving. The spoon itself is usually small and shallow, with a gently curved or flat surface that allows for precise portioning and delicate handling of the fragile caviar eggs. Additionally, caviar spoons may have decorative embellishments or intricate designs, adding an element of elegance to the caviar serving experience.
