If you’re planning on ringing in 2015 the way most of us do, no doubt you’ll be counting down ’til midnight with a glass or two of Champagne or sparkling wine in hand. Throughout its history, bubbly has been The Drink for celebratory occasions.


But if you really want to go all out during this year’s New Year’s Eve party, you might want to think about pairing those flutes of bubbly with one of the world’s most famous delicacies: caviar.

I love peas. We usually have purple hulls or crowders instead of blackeyes though. I don't care much for dried blackeyed peas, I like the fresh canned, frozen or better yet fresh picked. The few times I had them in restaurants they served the dried peas.

Back to the thread, I tried caviar once and didn't like it. I'll eat the fish, others can have the eggs.
 

I'll take the champagne but you can keep the caviar, I have tried from the cheapest to the most expensive and I just don't like it.:)
 
I was once lucky enough to taste Osetra caviar, or so I was told. It was served on a toast point w/ a few crumbles of chopped boiled egg. First one, wasn't crazy about it. Second one, I liked it. Third one a adored it, but that was the end of my allotment.:(
 
Hi Carolyn...really?..this year was the first time you ever ate Shrimp?...wow!! I love seafood although too much shrimp/prawns etc give me hearburn.

Caviar?..no I don't like it...but probably this NYE after I get home from work I will have Sea Scallops gently fried in butter with some 7 seeded wholemeal bread...simple but nectar of the Gods!:D

In the words of Robin Leach: "champagne wishes and caviar dreams.":) Radish ....that is investment grade caviar!

You guys inspired me. I haven't had caviar for years and I do love it, so I stopped by the store on the way home today and bought myself a little jar and some good water biscuits. I'm going to see the New Year in RIGHT!

I love how salty it is.... and how those little fishy eggs pop on the roof of your mouth when smooshed with your tongue...
