Tehran: Beluga Caviar is Black Gold
Vložit
- čas přidán 24. 06. 2020
- In this episode of The MUNCHIES Guide to Tehran, Gelareh feeds tankfuls of paddlefish and beluga-valued at up to $35,000 per fish-at the nation's first home of farm-raised caviar, Shilat Fish Farm. Eventually, this prized bottom-dwellers will be killed and harvested in a factory in Northern Iran, but currently, they live in conditions similar to their species' natural ocean habitat.
In the spirit of farm-to-table fine dining, Gelareh gets the royal treatment at Li Dona, a members-only restaurant and jazz lounge. She learns that when it comes to fish eggs, bigger is not necessarily better, as she tastes spoonfuls of "black gold" on toast served with butter, onion, egg, pepper, and lemon juice.

Never thought that iran has so rich culture in every its turns . Even girls are so beautiful in great persia . With deep respect from neighboring country called kazakhstan .
wow you are from a neighbouring country and you did not know Iran has a very reach culture and background?
We bring groceries worth $70 every month. So... 50g of this is equivalent to 4 and a half months of our food 😂
Btw I'm from India so things cheap here 😅
$70 every month is way cheaper evdn for living in India. Probably u live alone & hate eating only then $70/month justifies lol
BELUGA Caviar (Persian) Cost 10 000£ and 13 000€/kg in Europe and 3000€ in Iran. Wow what a deal
Caviar is a very useful product, I completely agree with you! By the way, if you are interested in a proven brand of caviar, then this is definitely Lemberg! Really natural caviar without preservatives, for a reasonable price.
Thank you
The gold of the watters 💯🇮🇷
Mashallah, the place along the dish is classy too 👍
Lol she's so goofy
Haven’t been this early since birth ..
Looks delicious
amazing
This is sustainable. Get it!
its seem very nice i want to try that food
I thought you weren’t supposed to us steel to serve it ?
nice
AMAZING +++++++++++++++++
Metal spoon affects the taste of caviar
so size doesn't matter, great 😂😂😂
Very nice what you served to us here, but i have to mention one thing.
The fish dont need to be killed nessassary to harvest the caviar. The russian people just give the fish a drug to make it feel dizzy and then cut it open, take the caviar out sew it like a doctor and let the fish cure. With this method they harvest 12 times the caviar from the fish, so it is definitifly not nessasary to kill the fish for harvest.
Good Russians are Fish Doctors.
So you know some companies actually perform C-cectiocs on the fish cuz thy don’t have to wait so many years to impregnate the fish again
It's old one
COOL ++++++++++++++
Oh no!!!! They are using metal spoons!!!!
Beluga heights califirnia
Imgaine if these eggs wouldn't be ate like this how many fish they would produce and how many hungry humans and animals would be served by that in this hungry world🤔🤔
Metal spoons react with the roe.
Yes
I would like to taste😋
i would totally eat that.
id also eat that caviar
Would be nice with some dom perignon🥂 relaxing in a yacht🛳❤
Did she say 35.000
The only problem is that the people of iran can’t afford persian caviar
Of course they do 😂😂😂 producer eat it AT breakfast everyday....go there before talking about something you dont Know 😅
i-
Is they really an expert bout caviar? Why they use the metal spoon?? Caviar must be use by wooden spoon or spoon that been made by bones only.
Caviar harvesting literally began in this part of the world. Iran was once the 2nd largest producer and exporter and still today is one of the biggest producer/exporter. Wooden spoons are prone to developing bacteria so over time more likely to taint the flavor. So I'm afraid your notion is a myth.
Mother of pearl
It is served with silver and not wooden in Iran where caviar first introduced to the rest of the world!

ایرانی🇮🇷❤️
IRANI🇮🇷 ❤️
one thing you should know is that you never serve caviar with silver spoon... that's a No NO.. you need to serve it with mother of pearl spoon. as the eggs are so sensitive .. you just kill the whole thing.. and also mind you that size does matter.. lol.. the bigger the eggs the more expensive the caviar
Real caviar it’s from the carping Black Sea not farmed fish 😂
Borroli mikonam mikonam
🤮🤮🤮
Iranian caviar is quite nice, but the best caviar is Dutch, real, silky soft and slightly salty.
Im pretty sure russian and iranian caviar is best since the beluga caviar is native to their lands
Khanum how you eating with someone hands even corona still exist in Iran
South Azerbaijan is not Iran!!
More Azeris are in Iran then Iranians ..Azerbaijan is Not Iran and a Jewish friendly beautiful land.
@@lnr243proof?
north iran not azerbaijan
I really don't like the taste of caviar
Don't put ayatollah's sign in our TEHRAN. 😈😡
Another american woman who forgot her IRANIAN roots😜
