Avruga is a product made from herring and other products (water, herring-40%, salt, corn starch, lemon juice, citric acid, xanthan gum, sodium benzoate, squid ink) that is marketed as a caviar substitute. Unlike caviar, does not contain fish roe.
Avruga is produced by the Spanish company Pescaviar.[1] According to the website of marine fishery consultants MacAlister Elliott, Avruga is produced for Pescaviar by a company named Cataliment and the product has Marine Stewardship Council "Chain of Custody" certification.[2]
