Mentaiko


Check out this addition to our fish section-- mentaiko, or seasoned cod roe! Also available in a plain, unseasoned version, called tarako, mentaiko are marinated with powdered chilies and spices to give them a unique and piquant flavor. Tightly packed and encased in a natural membrane, these fish eggs are delicious both eaten plain with rice, and cooked as a component in pasta sauces or onigiri fillings. Our tarako and mentaiko are top-tier quality, meaning that they are perfectly suitable to eat raw. Try them as a topping for sushi or on their own as a sashimi-style dish. Go bold and be sure to grab mentaiko on your next visit to Maido for authentic Japanese food, groceries, and other essentials!
