Sea urchin sashimi, known as "uni" in Japanese cuisine, is a delicacy often prized for its rich, creamy texture and bold, briny flavor that evokes the essence of the ocean. Made from fresh sea urchin roe, its vibrant orange hue is a visual highlight on many sushi platters. Originating in Japan, uni has become a sought-after ingredient worldwide, particularly in upscale dining experiences. Nutritionally, sea urchin sashimi is a source of high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins like A and E. These nutrients support heart health, vision, and skin health. However, uni is high in cholesterol, so consumption should be moderated for individuals monitoring their intake. Naturally low in carbohydrates and calories, sea urchin sashimi aligns well with lighter, balanced diets, and offers a luxurious taste without overwhelming richness. Its unique flavor makes it a standout addition to any sashimi selection.
