What is Tobiko?

Tobiko, or flying fish roe are eggs that come from the flying fish. They are popular due to their tiny size, which is less than 1mm. They have a texture that is crunchy and firm and flavor that is salty and almost smoky. The natural color is orange and additional colors can be achieved by dying the fish eggs with black squid ink, or other methods for the green variety. Tobiko is used across Japan and can be found as a garnish on sushi rolls.
