The Inside Scoop

Did you know?

The word 'ikura' actually comes from the Russian word 'ikra,' meaning fish roe. Each tiny orange pearl pops on your tongue, releasing a wave of rich ocean flavor. It's one of the more indulgent onigiri picks — treat yourself.

How to eat

  • 1Bite gently — the roe pearls pop with flavor, and biting too hard can send them rolling out of the rice.
  • 2The filling tends to be concentrated in the center. Pace your bites to enjoy it throughout.
