Bottarga (boutargue/botargo in Occitan) is a culinary specialty of Provence and several Mediterranean countries. The Japanese are very fond of it under the name of karasumi. It is a bag of eggs (roe) of mullet, salted and dried, collected when the females are full. Bottarga goes very well with fresh cream and will serve you grated for all sauce base preparations, accompanying fish, rice and pasta. She also enhances pizzas, scrambled eggs and buttered toast.

Artisanal bottarga, passed down from father to son, for professionals in the gastronomy and gourmet food industries.

Founded in the 1970s by Elie Memmi in the heart of Paris's Mouffetard district, MEMMI is renowned in France for its artisanal boutargue (or poutargue). Now based in Ivry-sur-Seine, this family-owned business carries on traditional craftsmanship passed down from father to son, transforming this maritime treasure into an exceptional ingredient for professionals in the culinary and food service industries. MEMMI's boutargue is made exclusively from the roe sacs of wild mullet, rigorously selected during seasonal and sustainable fishing operations (primarily in Mauritania, Senegal, the Gulf of Mexico, and Australia). Entirely natural, with no additives, colorings, or preservatives, the sacs are delicately salted, pressed, and then dried in the workshop in the Île-de-France region in accordance with the strictest HACCP standards. This rigorous process gives the product a unique texture and a perfectly balanced, briny flavor. Ideal for enhancing restaurant menus and gourmet deli shelves, boutargue can be served either sliced thinly as an appetizer or grated whole to add a refined touch to risotto, pasta dishes, or catered meals.
