Caviar Storage Caviar Storage Some caviar can be stored frozen for up to a year, and some others really should never be frozen at all, but should only be kept refrigerated. Caviar should be consumed on the same day that the tin is opened.
The reason you don't want to freeze caviar is because it ruins the cell structure of the fish roe. Although some may not know better and think this is the way it should taste. If you can afford to, try some fresh baluga caviar if you have a chance. If you are looking for a non-frozen alternative, you can get some lumpfish caviar in jars at most finer supermarkets. This is slightly saltier but will last longer in the fridge.
