This lovely pasta dish is actually a happy mistake...no, not a mistake, more like a happy meander that occurred when we were trying to recreate another Japanese dish known as mentaiko pasta (which is super nom nom!)
The problem with recreating that particular dish is that we couldn't find the main ingredient for it, Japanese cured cod roe. So we played around and came up with something just as good (we think!)
Our Umeboshi Roe Pasta is a simple to make creamy yet light pasta with a delicately tangy sauce dotted with umami bursts of roe that is so delicious and totally addictive. Umeboshi really rock the flavor!
