How many types of sea caviar are there?
For hundreds of years, sturgeon roe has been known as one of the most popular seafood products. At the beginning of the 1800s, fish eggs were collected and consumed from other species of fish, but none of them reached the level of today's caviar.
Finally, about 27 species of sturgeon were identified, almost all of which can be used for caviar extraction. But among them, the fish that we introduce below dominate the big world of this food item:
Beluga Caviar: This large fish, which can reach 15 feet in length and weigh nearly 3,000 pounds, is native to the Caspian Sea. Beluga caviar is considered one of the most popular caviars in the world, which has a color ranging from gray to dark black and is also called "black caviar".
Astra caviar: Astra sturgeon eggs are slightly smaller than beluga caviar and their color varies from brown to golden. The lighter the eggs, the older the fish and the more expensive Astra caviar.
Suruga caviar: Suruga is also one of the types of Caspian Sea sturgeon. Suruga caviar is known as one of the most popular seafood products with its distinct and buttery taste.
Kaluga Caviar: Kaluga is a large, fresh water sturgeon that, according to many caviar enthusiasts, tastes exactly like Beluga caviar.
Which types of caviar are allowed to be exported?
Caviar export is considered one of the most important factors of economic growth and market of marine products in Iran; So that every year, large quantities of Iranian caviar are exported to European and East Asian countries. For example, beluga caviar is one of Iran's most popular exported caviar, which has many fans all over the world because of its large seeds and hearty taste.

Yellow Croaker (Larimichthys polyactis)
A native of the western Pacific region Yellow croaker is often seen inhabiting temperate waters like those of yellow sea and the East China Sea. Usually, the yellow croaker is found eating zooplankton, small fishes and shrimps etc. Mostly you would find this fish in shallow water conditions but they try to avoid brackish conditions as much as they can. An average male, in this case, reaches a height of 42 cm though the average height still remains around 30 cm.

With red lips, gold body and belly and light yellow fins these fish have an almost rectangular shape. Insides of the mouth are white in colour and its gill slits would be black. Their head has two hard bones which give balance to the fish while swimming. These bones are used for medicinal purposes as well. Another habit of theirs which makes them distinct is that they love to jump over water.

It was once an abundant fish in the Chinese and Japanese waters but in the 1970s over usage led to its population coming down. However, they have again become prominent and are consumed salted and fried which is highly prized in those areas. The breeding season of the Yellow croaker is from March to June and they spawn between 30000-70000 eggs at a time.

Fish roe, or fish eggs, can be cooked in a variety of ways to make a delicious, unique meal. Whether you're frying the roe with breadcrumbs, poaching it in butter, or sauting it in a pan, it's a yummy delicacy that goes great with many different foods.

Many years of overfishing have made it difficult for large-scale mullet fishing in Taiwan waters. We-Chuanhai group, have long-term cooperative partners in all major fishing ports along the coast, and can obtain a stable supply of mullet from various places before the Winter Solstice.Our annual export for raw mullet roe, mullet fat, and mullet tendon are worth more than USD20 million. It is one of the major processor / exporter in this industry in Mainland China.

Following reasons make us the major China (Fujian) mullet roes, mullet fats supplier and exporter.
The southwest coast of Taiwan is a spawning place for mullet on the coast of the East China Sea in mainland China, which migrates southward around the early winter , so the eggs are usually relatively mature compared to those caught in the north. The caught female mulletâ??s body is carefully opened by our skilled workers, and then the roes are taken out and properly processed for further processing and production after export to Taiwan. Finally, they undergo a long and complex professional exposure and dry procedure, and then become one of the three most famous dishes in the world.
We have a factory specializing in mullet roes and mullet fats processing. The workers have many years of processing experience to ensure the roes in perfect status.
We adhere to the principle of quality first, and fully consider the strict requirements of the Taiwan partners for the freshness of raw materials in the downstream processes, and have won the trust of the market. We warmly welcome customers to contact us, --China dominant mullet roes, mullet fats exporter and supplier for your maximizing profit.

Chum salmon: With a mild flavor and firm pink flesh, keta salmon are a great choice for grilling or roasting. Chum salmon can be the best value on the market when the skin is bright and the meat deep red, according to some buyers. Since most chum salmon spawns near river mouths, they have lower oil content than sockeye, Chinook, or coho. Chum salmon has a mild taste, is low in sodium, and is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, niacin, vitamin B12, and selenium. Chum is graded 2-4, 4-6, 6-9, and 9 up and is readily available fresh and frozen, both H&G and fillets, but may also be canned or smoked. Like other kinds of salmon, chum quality differs greatly depending on the run. Buyers recommend learning about specific runs and their characteristics in order to identify the best salmon. The eggs are sold as ikura in Japan, where they have a high value.

Hilsa Tasty Immune Fish Seafood
Hilsa fish is considered to be one of most favorite and delicious fish in the world. It is the most popular fish to the Bengalis who call it as Ilish. It is found in Indian sub-continent especially in India. It is the national fish of India.
The most amazing fact about hilsa is that it is a sea fish but lay eggs in the large river especially in Padma-Meghna-Jamuna delta at Bay of Bengal. And after being raised as Jatka (name of the young hilsa fish in India) in the river it swim back to Bay of Bengal. However, hilsa is also caught from the sea. But those caught from the sea are not considered to be as tasty as those caught from the river. This fish also found in some area of Gujarat in India where female hilsa is known as Modenn and male hilsa is known as Palva. This fish carries a good economic value. Every year a huge number of hilsa is caught and sold. It is very pricy comparing other fishes.
Physical Profile of Hilsa Fish: The body of hilsa is very dense and fairly deep with dorsal and ventral profile equally curved. It equally spread medium-sized scales give a metallic silver shine. Usually it's length may vary from 40 cm to 60 cm. A large-sized hilsa weighs about 2.5 kg. Female hilsa are usually larger than males. The hilsa is known to be a fast swimmer and can cover even 60 kilometers at a time. It attains maturity in 1 to 2 years.
Hilsa as Food: Hilsa is an oily fish and rich in essential omega 3 fatty acids. A recent experiment has shown it has beneficial effects in decreasing cholesterol level and insulin level.
In India this fish is prepared in a lot number of varieties - people say in more than 50 different ways. It can be smoked, fried, steamed, baked, prepared with mustard seed paste, curd, brinjal (eggplant). Some common hilsa menus are Fried hilsa, Khichuri-Ilish, Sorshe Ilish, Panta Ilish etc. It takes a very little oil to cook hilsa as the fish itself is very oily. In North America and UK (where the fish is not always availavle) hilsa-dishes are found especially in Bengali cuisine.
Hilsa in culture: Hilsa is one most important fish in the world in terms of cultural importance. It is an obvious food in a good number of festivities in India and India. Most of the Hingu Bengali families buy two Hilsa fishes (known as Joda Ilish) in auspicious days, like some Saraswati Puja. The custom mainly prevail Hindu Bengalis from former East Bengal (India) in West Bengal, Assam, Tripura in India. In the dawn of Pahela Baisaksh (Bengali New Year) people of India and West Bengal of India welcomes the new year with Panta-Ilish (wet rice, and Hilsa fish).
But this custom is prevalent mainly among the Hindu Bengalis of former East Bengal (now India) many of whom now live in West Bengal, Barak Valley (Assam) and Tripura in India after the Partition of India. Some of them give Hilsa fish as an offering to the goddess Lakshmi, without which the Puja is thought to be incomplete.
