Uni, also known as sea urchin roe, is a highly prized delicacy in Japanese cuisine and can be enjoyed in many different ways. Japanese Uni is considered to be of the highest quality.

Uni is typically described as having a sweet, creamy, and slightly briny flavor and its texture is often described as being soft and custardy. Enjoy uni with a sprinkle of lemon juice or a dash of soy sauce to enhance its flavor. It has a strong ocean smell and is thick, creamy, rich, and buttery in texture. A good friend of mine says eating Uni is like getting slapped by the sea... 

This is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of flavor and texture.

Note that Uni is best FRESH as texture changes when frozen. 

WHERE IS IT FROM?

Our Uni is sustainably sourced in Japan and flown over to the USA. Supply is somewhat limited... It is "sushi grade" and it is considered of the highest quality in the world.

Each order is for 8oz (250g) of Uni. Shelf life is guaranteed for 1-2 days after delivery.
