Read our article on how to make Mentai Mayo and a quick recipe for Mentaiko Pasta!

• Air-flown from Japan
• 500G per pack
• Extremely versatile for cooking
• Best topped on seafood (salmon, scallops, prawns, squid), vegetables (Shiitake mushroom, Leek, Eggplant); or made with Onigiri; or tossed with noodles (pastas or Inaniwa udon).
• Best stored in the freezer. Once opened, store in freezer for up to 1 year.  As Mentaiko isn’t rock hard even when kept in the freezer, you may squeeze out required amount with ease and store the remainder in a ziplock bag back into the freezer. 
• Note: Mentaiko is made up of very tiny particles, so even in -15 degrees, the mentaiko tube will still feel soft and will be easy to press/squeeze on. This is the same for Miso. This does not mean that it is thawed.
