Recipe: Hungry Bird Eats Seed crackers with caviar and sour cream

The Hungry Bird Eats Rye + Sea Salt crackers topped with sour cream and caviar provide an ultra-decadent indulgence, perfect for those special occasions and celebrations. True caviar comes from sturgeon and is considered one of the most luxurious and sought-after delicacies in the world. It’s also one of the world’s most expensive treats, so you might want to swap the caviar in this recipe for a more affordable option like salmon roe or other kinds of fish roe.

Caviar is traditionally served with blinis, which are small, round, and thin pancakes originating from Russian and Eastern European cuisine. However, I discovered how delicious caviar is when paired with the Rye + Sea Salt crackers from Hungry Bird Eats. The first time I tried this combination, I was amazed at how the crisp, slightly salty, crackers enhanced the caviar’s delicate taste. The satisfying crunch of the rye cracker provides a perfect contrast to the smooth pearls of caviar, and nowadays these crackers are my go-to caviar pairing.
