1001 ideas. 1001 inspirations. 1001 ways to elevate this gold from the sea that is bottarga. Briny starters, bold main courses, show-stopping apéritifs, and even… daring desserts. Yes, we dared. And you should too.
At Koskas & Fils, bottarga is a family affair. The story of my father, a passionate artisan, who passed down much more than know-how: an obsession with perfect flavor, ideal texture, and that one-bite “wow” effect.
Embraced by top chefs, our bottarga has traveled through the most demanding kitchens. Today, we invite you to (re)discover it, to grate it, remix it, and serve it proudly at your table.
Why 1001 recipes? Because like the tales of One Thousand and One Nights, bottarga tells a thousand culinary stories—where Mediterranean tradition meets boundless creativity. And spoiler: we’re just getting started.
So whether you’re curious, a foodie, a Michelin-starred chef, or simply very (very) inspired: pick a recipe, try it, adapt it… and above all, enjoy.
