MASAGO
Frozen · Origin: Japan · Size: 500gm · Product Code: FZ0073

Masago is the roe of the capelin, a small cold-water fish of the smelt family, and one of the most widely used garnishing ingredients in Japanese and sushi cuisine worldwide. Often compared to its larger cousin Tobiko, Masago distinguishes itself through its exceptionally fine grain, softer texture, and more subdued, gently briny flavour that integrates seamlessly into a wide range of preparations without ever overpowering the ingredients around it.

Its vibrant orange colour is immediately eye-catching, adding a vivid natural warmth to sushi rolls, nigiri, and Japanese-inspired dishes that is as visually appealing as it is appetising. The flavour is mild and subtly sweet, with a clean oceanic freshness that makes it one of the most accessible and versatile roe products available. Its finer, softer texture compared to Tobiko gives it a more delicate mouthfeel, making it particularly well suited to preparations where a lighter, less assertive roe presence is desired.

Used to coat the outside of sushi rolls, spooned generously over nigiri, incorporated into sauces and dressings, or applied as a refined garnish across a wide range of contemporary dishes, Masago is a kitchen staple that delivers consistent quality and visual impact in every application.
