Hakata Mentaiko Shop
×Karashi Mentaiko
Why you must eat itPollock roe cured in a chili-laced seasoning, mentaiko red and glossy. Some shops cut and serve a whole sac as is, others set it beside warm rice. The eggs burst softly in the mouth, and the heat, salt, and savor linger. It is treated broadly, grilled for fragrance or eaten in small amounts with drink. In Fukuoka it stands as a dish essential to both gifts and the table.
Karashi mentaiko is a food that stands for Hakata, with many specialist shops. The heat, the salt, and the curing differ by maker. Raw, it does not keep long, so chilled or frozen forms are chosen as gifts. Prices are a guide by weight; check the levels of heat and how long it keeps with the shop.
