Ikura and the Pescatarian Diet

Ikura is the Japanese term for salmon roe, which consists of large, orange fish eggs. It is a delicacy in Japanese cuisine, often used as a topping for sushi and sashimi. The eggs have a distinctive burst of flavor and a slightly salty taste, which comes from the natural brine they are cured in. Ikura is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, making it both a flavorful and nutritious addition to various dishes.
