Etymology
The word 'sevruga' originates from the Russian word 'ัะตะฒััะณะฐ' (sevryuga), which refers to a specific type of sturgeon found in the Caspian Sea and Black Sea. This fish has been highly valued for its roe, which is made into caviar, a luxury food product. The name itself may derive from the Turkic languages, which often used 'sev' to refer to fish or sturgeon. Over centuries, the sevruga sturgeon became synonymous with high-quality caviar, and its name has been adopted in various languages worldwide, signifying its importance in culinary traditions, especially in Eastern European gastronomy. The delicate taste and texture of sevruga caviar have made it a favorite among gourmets, while the environmental concerns surrounding sturgeon populations have led to conservation efforts and regulations regarding its harvest.
