'Pepin Payusnaya' launches at Aspen Food & Wine June 12-15, featured at the Two Twelve Access House. SAN FRANCISCO, June 5
SAN FRANCISCO, June 5 /PRNewswire/ -- California Caviar Company and
Jacques Pepin have teamed up to create the first domestic pressed caviar
available in the United States. Combining the roe of three species of domestic
sturgeon, this signature caviar, called "Pepin Payusnaya" is personalized with
the master chef's hand-sketched artwork.
"Pepin Payusnaya" is the first of California Caviar Company's Chef's
Signature Series. Pepin's pressed caviar uses only the highest quality
sustainable American sturgeon caviar from California's farmed white sturgeon
along with wild hackleback and paddlefish from the Mississippi and Tennessee
River systems. This payusnaya is full-flavored, complex, yet smooth and can be
sliced, shaved, molded, spread or applied to sauces to enhance any dish.
Jacques Pepin states, "For the true amateur of caviar there is nothing
like pressed caviar or payusnaya. The original Russian payusnaya was usually
made from a mixture of beluga, osetra and sevruga eggs and for all intents and
purposes it is unavailable in the US nowadays. With its intense, assertive
taste and dense, smooth texture, it is extremely versatile and a wonderful new
addition to the repertoire of the imaginative and inventive chef."
California Caviar Company offers innovative and enticing delicacies to
enhance the culinary world, specializing in sustainable caviar and gourmet
foods. The company works with the nation's top caviar importers, farmers, and
purveyors to provide the highest quality sustainable alternatives to luxury
food items. In addition, California Caviar Company partners with executive
chefs and gourmet food companies to develop and distribute signature product
lines and private labels.
