Mash Tube Type

It has never been easier to enjoy this delicacy at home. The Mash Type Mentaiko is produced by removing the thin membrane and soaking the roe in a curing liquid, which gives it a deeper, more intense taste. The convenience of this tube-style packaging makes it a popular choice for home chefs who want to add a gourmet touch to their dishes without the mess.

• Pasta & Noodles: Perfect for creamy mentaiko pasta or udon.

• Rice Dishes: A staple filling for onigiri (rice balls) or as a flavorful topping for donburi.

• Fusion Cuisine: Works well in sauces, dressings, or even as a unique pizza topping.
