A traditional choice
Mother-of-pearl is a familiar material for caviar spoons because it is non-reactive and comfortable for a small tasting. It also makes a thoughtful presentation when serving at the table.
Is it essential?
The key is a clean, food-safe, non-reactive utensil. Mother-of-pearl is one attractive option, rather than a rule that prevents you from enjoying caviar without it.
Serving with care
Offer small spoonfuls and avoid mixing flavours between tins. Wash and care for the spoon according to its own instructions, and keep the caviar chilled while serving.
