Ingredients:

  • Spicy Cod Roe (Mentaiko): your favorite amount

How to:

  1. Salted Tosakanori seaweed should be rinsed twice with water to remove salt. After that, soaked in water for about 3 minutes to remove the excess salt.

  2. For Dried Tosakanori seaweed, soak it in water for 4 minutes to rehydrate.


  3. ※ When soaking in saltwater, make sure to thoroughly rinse off any debris or foreign objects that may have gotten inside. If there are any discolored parts, it's best to remove them.
  4. Remove the roe from the mentaiko sac.
  5. Mix the mentaiko and tobiko in your desired amounts with the desalted Tosakanori.
