About Trout roe

Trout roe consists of the eggs of trout, usually sold as small, rounded beads. The eggs are commonly orange to reddish, with a delicate outer membrane and a moist texture; their flavour is briny and fish-like, with variation by preparation and source.

It is eaten as a garnish or spread and is sold fresh, salted, or otherwise cured. These forms are not interchangeable: curing changes moisture and salt content, while the catalogue name does not specify the trout species or whether the roe is fresh or processed.
