About Fish roe

Fish roe, commonly known as fish eggs, is a nutrient-dense delicacy found in various global cuisines, including Japanese, Russian, and Mediterranean. Popular varieties include caviar from sturgeon, masago from smelt, and tobiko from flying fish. Roe is rich in high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B12, selenium, and phosphorus, all of which support brain health, immune function, and heart health. It’s naturally low in carbohydrates, making it a suitable choice for low-carb diets. However, roe can be high in cholesterol and sodium, especially when processed or cured, so moderation is advised for individuals with cardiovascular concerns or high blood pressure. Its delicate flavor and versatility make it a prized ingredient in sushi, spreads, and gourmet dishes. Enjoyed fresh or preserved, fish roe offers a combination of rich taste and valuable nutrition when balanced within a healthy diet.
