lautnusantara.com Tobiko is flying fish roe commonly used in Japanese cuisine, especially in sushi and sashimi. Small in size and with a crunchy texture, tobiko provides a unique sensation when chewed. Naturally, tobiko has a bright orange color, but it is often dyed black (with squid ink), red (chili), green (wasabi), or yellow (yuzu) to enhance its appearance and flavor.

 

Besides adding deliciousness, tobiko is also rich in nutrients. It contains high protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins and minerals beneficial for brain and heart health. However, consuming large amounts should be done in moderation due to its high cholesterol content. Proper storage is also crucial to maintain its freshness, ideally in a refrigerated environment at low temperatures.

 

In the culinary world, tobiko is not limited to sushi but is also used in various creative dishes such as pasta, salads, and fried rice. Its savory and slightly salty taste makes it a perfect addition to many recipes. With its distinctive texture and vibrant colors, tobiko remains a favorite among seafood lovers worldwide.
