Red caviar is made from salmon eggs. There are different types of fish, but the most used for caviar production are silver salmon, whose name comes from the colour of their scales, chum salmon, which travel through the Pacific Ocean to spawn in the Kamchatka peninsula, rosy salmon and red salmon.

The popularity of salmon caviar is linked to the scarcity of wild sturgeon fish.

A key difference when compared to other fish species with which caviar is made is that salmon cannot be farm raised as it dies after spawning.
