A staple of traditional Japanese cuisine, Masago caviar’s popularity has spread throughout the rest of the world. And it’s no wonder! These delightful tiny beads are packed with fresh briny flavor and have a pleasant crunch that everyone’s sure to enjoy! Masago also referred to as Capelin Caviar, is generally found and harvested in the arctic waters of the Northern Atlantic ocean near the shores of Iceland. One of the only caviars that can withstand freezing temperatures, once caught, the eggs are immediately fresh-frozen before being shipped to processing locations around the world. Japan receives about 60% of all the Masago that is harvested. Once the fish roe arrives, ready to be processed, it is lightly cured in pure sea salt before it is packed or dyed. Dying and flavoring Masago is a popular practice in Japan with a whole host of fun colors and delicious flavors. Popular flavors include spicy ginger, wasabi, and red chili. For a great way to add fresh briny flavor to your dishes and a bright pop of color, consider adding Masago caviar to grain-forward dishes like risottos, and pasta. Garnish sushi and salads with them or even incorporate them into your dressings and sauces. No matter how you decide to use Masago caviar, we’re sure you’re going to love its fantastic fresh flavors and delightful texture!
