Red Pearl Salmon ( Red ) Caviar in Can ( 454g / 1 Lb )

For large quantity canned roe, this is excellent. There are way worse quality products on the market that cost way more. If you are comparing this to ikura sushi-level roe, you will be disappointed, of course - it is not that and not meant to be that. The eggs are softer and saltier in this case, as is common and traditional for this style roe. But they are intact and still have a good pop to them, which is a sign of good product. As someone who grew up in the post-Soviet era with salmon roe frequently on the table for celebratory occasions, this is certainly good enough to be a treat. You can still use it for your poke bowl, just be prepared for something really salty, and maybe cut back on the soy sauce. It is more commonly enjoyed on a buttered bit of crusty bread, or on a crepe or a blini with some sour cream. My husband and I absolutely went ham on this can and will buy again next time we need a treat. We recommend English muffins as a potential vehicle to get it to your taste buds. And good quality unsalted or low salt butter. Because it is so salty, it is also not going to spoil as fast as some people on here think ("eat within four days" or whatever). Just put it in a glass or a crock, or a mason jar on the coldest shelf of your fridge and eat within 2 weeks.

Good texture, fresh, delicious, not salty , firm and satisfying pop when eating.Fresh taste and smell. Appearance: Bright reddishOrange not stick together pearls, not liquidy.Came with frozen ice pack, fast shipping.Thank You.

I purchased this item to take up to the family holiday long-weekend, and no one could eat it-- at all. I have purchased other brands which were light, solid eggs, and not too salty, but this can was orange mush for the most part, and repulsively salty. The flavor was wrong, the texture was wrong, and the salt level was very wrong. The only good point was that the product was so displeasing that I had no compunctions about throwing out the 90% that was left. Ick. Big ick.

There have been many reviews regarding this product and seller. I found some of the reviews to be questionable and went, with hope, for the purchase. Please note that my purchase is Amazon Verified.I love Salmon Roe. I know the high-end and have been to the low. This 1 pound (!) product is delivered in a very nice 'tin', with a easy pull-top lid and plastic cover-lid, for storing after opening. I suggest opening it, and then moving the Roe to a chilled glass jar for enjoying at your leisure.The delivery (mine from Washington, the state) was perfect. It was marked as perishable, and included tracking via FedEx. It arrived with the ice-pack, still fully frozen, in a small cooler, and the roe can was icy cold.Quality Salmon Roe fans know that a crisp fresh Roe costs about 80-100 bucks per 6-8oz tin. This product is a full pound of Roe (delivery cost included!) for a total of 48 dollars (as of this review).So compare. The taste of this product is excellent. It's not too fishy, and not too salty. It's a very clean, well-rounded Roe experience. The Roe is perfect with cream cheese and capers (I just did it), or scrambled with eggs, or in a sushi roll. In fact, the only difference between this Roe and high-quality restaurant Roe is texture.This comes in a can, folks. It's jammed packed with delicious Roe BUT it does get a bit smooshed. Not badly smooshed but enough that it's not on-its-own presentation quality at a party. BUT in any dish you're serving to guests, where the Roe is part of the whole, your guests will never know the difference between high-end and the flavor of this product. And for enjoying at home, where you can, without guilt, take as much as you want, this Roe is an extreme bargain.Summing up: Delivery perfect. Product a 10 on taste, a 5 on texture. Perfect for you anytime, or in guest-recipes that mask the texture.Cheers!

It came warm in spite of the excellen foil bubble wrapping, which included a frozen freezer baglet inside but its ice was melted, baglet arrived sweated and warm... no one's fault but mine since I chose regular shipping. When I opened the tin, the product was still ok in taste although consistency very loose and seemingly collapsed eggs. I immediately transferred it into a glass jar and put covered jar back into foil bubble bag it came in and refrigerated it. When cold, the eggs firmed up and flavor was EXCELLENT. Link to producer is on tin. Says the product is from Wild Caught Alaskan Salmon... though there are better grades for more money. Nonetheless, this salmon roe was excellent when cold and at a reasonable, affordable price. I was jonesing for non-gmo wild non-farmed salmon roe for sushi and this did the trick for me. I enjoyed 3 large rolls of Ikura Sushi as soon as it arrived (had nuri and rice all ready, lol). Still have tons of salmon roe left over for the following weeks. I think I will use some of it to make caviar spread using the recipe at the producer's web site... https://www.red-caviar.com/recipes/caviar-spread Very Happy with this product. I will buy again so long as price remains reasonable.
