Coho Salmon Caviar, also known as Silver Salmon Roe or Coho ikura, is wild salmon roe with bright orange-red pearls, a clean ocean flavor, and a balanced pop. Coho roe has its own texture and flavor profile and should be compared by species rather than treated as generic red caviar.
Current options may include different harvest years, package sizes, and production lots. Because this is a wild seasonal product, pearl size, membrane strength, color, flavor, salinity, and texture can vary naturally from lot to lot.
Wild Coho Salmon Roe (Silver Salmon Ikura)
Coho salmon, also called Silver salmon, produces roe that is distinct from Chum, King, Pink, and Sockeye. The final texture and flavor depend on fish maturity, harvest timing, curing, handling, and the individual production lot.
