About Mentai sauce

Mentai sauce is a creamy and flavorful condiment originating from Japanese cuisine, inspired by the fusion of tarako (cod roe) and spicy mentaiko. Made primarily with mentaiko, mayonnaise, and sometimes butter, it offers a rich umami taste with a hint of spiciness. Often used in dishes like pasta, sushi, or grilled seafood, Mentai sauce provides depth and indulgence to meals. While mentaiko itself is a source of lean protein, vitamins, and minerals like omega-3 fatty acids, the mayonnaise and butter contribute higher fat and caloric content, making this sauce rich but less ideal for low-fat diets. Its balance of flavors and versatility makes it a beloved addition to modern Japanese-inspired dishes.
