Lingotto Special Edition with Microplane

Lingotto Special Edition is designed primarily for finishing dishes rather than prolonged cooking.

For the best experience, prepare the dish first and grate or shave the Lingotto immediately before serving.

Recommended uses include:

• Lemon-zested spaghetti - grate Lingotto directly over the warm pasta for an aromatic caviar finish
• Risotto - add at the final stage so the warmth gently releases the caviar aroma
• Potato purée - grate finely or add delicate shavings over the warm surface
• Pumpkin purée - the natural sweetness creates contrast with Lingotto’s concentrated savory character
• Eggs - finish soft-boiled, scrambled, or poached eggs with freshly grated Lingotto
• Seafood - use sparingly as a final accent over mild fish or shellfish preparations
• Vegetables - add to warm seasonal vegetables for an unexpected savory dimension
• Canapés and appetizers - grate lightly over small bites immediately before serving

The Microplane makes it easy to adjust intensity: use a light dusting for subtle caviar character or grate more generously when Lingotto is intended to become a central element of the dish.

Recommended beverage pairings include:

• Crisp dry sparkling wine
• Mineral dry white wine
• Premium vodka

Because Lingotto is concentrated, begin with a restrained amount and add more according to taste.

Lingotto Special Edition offers a very different way to experience Calvisius caviar.

Instead of serving individual caviar pearls directly from a tin, fresh Pacific White sturgeon caviar is placed into a mold and aged for approximately two months.

During this maturation period, moisture is reduced, flavor becomes more concentrated, and the caviar develops a firm texture that can be grated, shaved, or sliced.

The included Microplane makes this format especially easy to use. Freshly grated Lingotto can be added directly over a finished dish, allowing the cook to control both the quantity and distribution of caviar flavor.

Warm food adds another dimension to the experience. Gentle heat rehydrates the Lingotto and helps release its aromas, allowing its concentrated savory and marine character to open across the dish.

The result is less like traditional caviar service and more like a premium finishing ingredient: precise, aromatic, versatile, and designed for culinary creativity.

Calvisius Lingotto - 70 g / 2.5 oz

Lingotto begins with fresh Pacific White sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) caviar.

The caviar is placed into a mold and aged for approximately two months. Once properly matured, its flavor becomes more concentrated and the texture sufficiently firm for grating, shaving, or slicing.

This distinctive preparation preserves the character of caviar while transforming it into a completely different culinary format.

Rather than focusing on pearl size and pop, Lingotto is defined by concentration, aroma, firmness, and the way it interacts with finished dishes.

Precision Microplane Grater

The included Microplane is designed to make grating Lingotto simple and precise.

Its ultra-sharp stainless-steel blade allows fine, even grating with minimal effort, while the ergonomic handle provides a comfortable and controlled grip.

The compact tool can be used directly over the plate, allowing freshly grated Lingotto to become the final aromatic and visual element of the dish.

The Microplane is dishwasher safe for convenient cleaning after use.

Lingotto Special Edition is particularly well suited to recipients who enjoy cooking and interacting with exceptional ingredients rather than simply serving them.

The combination of concentrated caviar and a dedicated preparation tool turns the gift into a culinary experience: the recipient can grate Lingotto directly over different dishes, experiment with quantities and textures, and discover how its character changes when it meets warm food.

It is especially well suited for:

• Professional chefs
• Passionate home cooks
• Gourmet food enthusiasts
• Dinner hosts
• Culinary-focused luxury gifting
• Milestone celebrations
• Corporate gifts for food lovers
• Caviar enthusiasts looking for something beyond traditional tin service

Choose Lingotto Special Edition when the recipient would enjoy transforming caviar into a creative finishing ingredient and having the proper tool to use it immediately.

Rather than being only a premium food product, the set combines ingredient, technique, and presentation in one distinctive Calvisius experience.
