Delicious Uni

Yep, it's not for everyone. But for those who know how delicious Uni is, this close-up should make your mouth water. You can see the texture, which although looks like your tongue, it just melts in your mouth like butter. It's almost always on our specials board so just holler it out to our awesome sushi chefs and they'll whip up a few orders for you. It definitely goes well with one of our premium sakes. If you ever need help deciding on a sake pairing, don't hesitate to ask our servers or our chefs (if they're not too busy) for an appropriate sake that will best suit your liking.

Uni for Uno? Sea Urchin Sushi Melts in Your Mouth

Uni or Uno Sea Urchin Gonads Roe Sushi Education Orange County OC Cypress

Every time we eat sushi, we have to have at least one order of Uni, otherwise known as Sea Urchin. While it is not for everyone, it is recommended that you try it at least once, if you truly love sushi. It's like a firm custard, but it is very rich and buttery. A common misconception about uni is that it is actually the roe of the Sea Urchin. In fact, the Uni that we eat in sushi consists of the gonads of Sea Urchins. The gonads produce the roe for this prickly sea creature. There you go. You learned something today. Now order a couple of orders for yourself. You deserve it.
