I’ve ordered this roe before new year and generally wasn’t disappointed. The stuff is really friendly and accommodating despite us arriving two hours late for pick up. It was frozen and ready to eat for next day. The taste is ok, more on the salty side, not much of crushed ones, I wouldn’t say it was too soupy. The color is different from the picture- it’s brown, but for me it’s a good thing, I don’t like it bright red(you never know if it’s natural color or added colorants) the grade is different too - it’s smaller than the pictures, so it’s solid 4 stars.
Also their yuzu cheese cake is awesome
Re: the review below, the next day the ikura was a little less off-tasting once it was separated from its "soupy" bretheren and had a chance to breathe. Maybe it was the packaging and the liquid that contributed to the off-taste?? Can't edit the review below so leaving a separate one.
I have eaten a fair share of Ikura in my life (both purchased for personal use and in restaurants) and I was really excited to try this because ikura can be difficult to source. It’s hard to describe but this ikura tasted stale and faintly musty, with a distinct sweet fishy taste. Texturally, the individual ikura seemed mostly intact but the mixture was a bit soupy. They were not as large and plump as the photos, which isn’t a big deal but with the other issues it just added to the disappointment. It is edible, but not enjoyable, especially for the price point. Sadly, there are no returns on perishable items so I guess I’m stuck with it. I’m wondering if I just got a bad batch or something. Too bad because the shipping was fast and free.
Flavour is amazing, the yuzu taste shines through, and the cheesecake texture is on point.
Really good on their own with a homemade tartar sauce. Have also put them in a po'boy. Very good
Tasty. Not as spicy as some that you get out. There is a but of sweetness too
Salty and dry
Taste very good. Easy to serve. I just soaked the pack in the warm/hot water for 5 min. and serve.
Good sweet miso taste for kids to adults. Super easy to serve.
Loved it. Not a professional fish monger so bones were annoying to work around. Great taste tho
It feels like there is something missing compared to the Meitaiko that I had during my visit to Japan. I can't really put it directly somewhere, but it may have to do with the lack of spiciness and umami. I would still order it again, however.
Easy 3-4 min. fry. Nice and clean 10 pcs/ bag. Japanese style soft panko. My family loves it!!
One of the picture of this product posted as product of Japan, and that's why I bought 4 of this item but delivered today and it's not product of Japan, it product of china
We, at Azuma Foods, made an error on the label as the product is imported by us through a Japanese company but sourced from China, and we were in the process of making the correction.
We had zero intention of misleading our customers and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused and have provide a full refund.
We really enjoyed the food
Excellent Impeccable Delivery and Product
Everything is fresh and fantabulous
They are easily make . Boil some hot water and salt them. Good potion for the price !
These tobikko are a bit different than the ones restaurants serve. They are darker and very flavourful. Do not pop easily.
I love scallops. Somehow the garlic stems are still crunchy after being frozen and it's a nice contrast to the soft scallop fringes. The flavour is so good too, so much umami, I can just have it mixed with rice.
It's such a nice convenient side dish. Just defrost overnight and you got an extra dish for dinner! I'd definitely recommend giving it a try especially if you dont fancy the raw version
It definitely did not need to be microwaved for as long as instructed for my case so I'd advice you to make your own judgement, it's already cooked anyways, you're just reheating it. It's such a convenient delicious dish I am happy having just it with plain rice. Mackerels tend to be a bit on the fishier side so be warned! I really love it.
Very good product and it was shipped frozen with dry ice which was fun but it took them a week just to start the shipping process which is why they lost 2 stars. If you're happy to wait on shipping for the plant based sashimi you will have a good experience
大き過ぎてどうして食べようか困っています。切り身になってると思っていました。
