Why Do Potato Wedges Pair So Well With Siberian Caviar?

Potato wedges and Siberian caviar create a perfect harmony of textures and flavors—crispy, golden-brown potatoes provide a satisfying crunch, while the silky, briny pearls of Baerii caviar add an elegant depth. The natural starchiness of the potatoes balances the caviar’s refined saltiness, especially when paired with a dollop of crème fraîche for a creamy contrast. This combination transforms a simple comfort food into a truly indulgent experience.

  • 2 large russet potatoes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tbsp finely chopped chives

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Potatoes
    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Scrub the potatoes clean and cut them into thick wedges.

  2. Roast to Perfection

    Roast for 35–40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
  3. Add the Finishing Touches

    Add a generous dollop of Siberian Caviar and finish with a sprinkle of fresh chives.
