Salmon substitutes, caviar, and other fish roe products (09.3.3.0)
Description
Roe is usually produced by washing, salting and allowing to ripen until transparent. The roe is then packaged in glass or other suitable containers. The term “caviar” refers only to the roe of the sturgeon species (e.g. beluga). Caviar substitues are made of roe of various sea and freshwater fish (e.g., cod and herring) that are salted, spiced, dyed and may be treated with a preservative.1 Examples include: salted salmon roe (sujiko), processed, salted salmon roe (ikura), cod roe, salted cod roe (tarako) and lumpfish caviar. Occasionally, roe may be pasteurized. In this case, it is included in food category 09.4, since it is a fully preserved product. Roe products that are frozen, cooked or smoked are included in category 09.2.1, 09.2.4.1, and 09.2.5, respectively; fresh fish roe is found in category 09.1.1.This page provides information on the food additive provisions that are acceptable for use in foods conforming to the food category.
