Immerse yourself in a delicately scented taste experience with So'Boutargue's bottarga aged with jasmine and mallow flowers. This exclusive creation marries the deep, salty richness of bottarga with floral sweetness, resulting in an exceptional product that is as surprising as it is elegant.
Bottarga: The Gold of the Sea
Known as the caviar of the Mediterranean, bottarga is made from wild mullet roe, salted and dried following an ancestral method. Every step of the process is carried out with care, from the rigorous selection of roe sacks to the aging process in Provence, amidst olive groves and lavender fields.
Aging with jasmine and mallow flowers adds a unique touch to this luxurious product. The enchanting fragrance of jasmine blends with the subtle, calming notes of mallow, offering a new sensory dimension to the bottarga while maintaining its rich, briny character.
A Floral and Flavorful Alliance
Jasmine Flowers: Symbolizing elegance and softness, jasmine flowers bring delicate floral notes that envelop the bottarga, softening its salty taste. They add a unique, slightly sweet aroma reminiscent of a fragrant breeze on a warm summer night.
Mallow Flowers: Known for their soothing properties, mallow complements this composition with its gentle, herbaceous notes, adding lightness and freshness to every bite.
The combination of these Mediterranean flowers elevates the bottarga, creating a perfect balance between the briny strength of the product and the aromatic finesse of the flowers. It's an invitation to travel between land and sea, a surprising blend of marine and floral flavors that will delight the finest palates.
