Caviar refers to the salted eggs or roe of the sturgeon Acipenser. Caviar is derived from the Persian word Khaviar, which means "bearing eggs." Roe from other species such as salmon, paddlefish, whitefish, and lumpfish must be labeled with the name of the fish in front of the word caviar. If the word caviar appears by itself on the label it must by law come from a sturgeon.

 

Today, caviar primarily comes from the following species: Adriatic sturgeon, beluga sturgeon, European sturgeon, kaluga sturgeon, Pacific or white sturgeon, Persian sturgeon, Russian sturgeon, Siberian sturgeon, starlet sturgeon and stellate sturgeon. The term “caviar” is sometimes incorrectly used to refer to roe from other fish species. “Caviar” is only correct and accurate when it refers to the roe from sturgeon.
