Leviatan Paris, sealing wild mullet roe under wax
A Paris maker offers whole wild-mullet roe, dry-salted, slowly dried, and hand-sealed under white or beeswax.
Field notes
Leviatan describes boutargue made from intact sacs of wild mullet roe, using dry salt rather than brine, weeks of controlled air-drying, and successive wax baths. Buyers can choose a neutral white-wax coating or beeswax with a stated faint honey note. The page recommends storing unopened pieces at 4–8 °C, serving 20–30 grams per person as an aperitif, and removing wax only from the portion being sliced. French shipping is stated as possible, with terms supplied directly.
