Why Our Ikura Stands Out

Large, intact roe pearls

Clean, briny flavor with balanced seasoning

Sushi-grade quality

Bright color and firm membrane

Ready to serve

This is not soft, broken, or overly salty roe. Each pearl is selected for structure and clarity.


What Is Ikura?

Ikura is the Japanese name for salmon roe, known for its translucent orange color and signature “pop.” Unlike caviar from sturgeon, ikura has a larger bead and a more pronounced texture.

When high quality, ikura should be:

Firm, not mushy

Bright, not dull

Clean tasting, not fishy

Balanced, not overly salty


Flavor & Texture Profile

Bold umami

Clean ocean salinity

Satisfying pop

Rich yet refreshing finish

Ikura adds texture and depth to any dish.


How to Serve

Spoon over sushi rice (ikura don)

Top nigiri or gunkan-style sushi

Add to sashimi platters

Elevate seafood pasta or blini

Pair with smoked salmon or gravlax

Serve chilled. No preparation required.

FAQ - Salmon Roe Ikura

Is ikura the same as caviar?

No. Ikura is salmon roe. Caviar traditionally refers to sturgeon roe.

Is this safe to eat raw?

Yes. This ikura is handled and prepared for sushi use.

Is it very salty?

It is seasoned for balance, not overpowering salt.

Why does ikura “pop”?

High-quality salmon roe has a firm membrane that creates its signature texture.
