About Fish roe sushi

Fish roe sushi, known as "Ikura" (salmon roe) or "Tobiko" (flying fish roe) in Japanese cuisine, features tiny, flavorful fish eggs atop vinegared rice and often wrapped in seaweed. A staple in Japanese sushi culture, fish roe is prized for its briny, delicate texture and vibrant orange hue. Nutritionally, fish roe is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health, as well as high-quality protein, vitamins B12 and D, and essential minerals like selenium. However, it is also relatively high in cholesterol and sodium, making moderation key. While the seaweed (nori) provides fiber and iodine, the vinegared rice contributes carbohydrates, which can add to calorie content. As a nutrient-dense food with unique texture and flavor, fish roe sushi is celebrated in Japanese gastronomy, offering a balance of indulgence and nutrition when enjoyed as part of a diverse and mindful diet.
