Whole Sea Urchin is for customers who want to open and serve fresh sea urchin themselves. This listing offers Red and Green sea urchin options and is intentionally separate from our prepared uni roe tray.
Red & Green Sea Urchin
The edible uni is found inside the shell and is prized for its creamy texture and sweet-briny ocean flavor. Availability varies by species and harvest.
Whole Sea Urchin vs. Prepared Uni Roe
This product is whole sea urchin. For cleaned, ready-to-serve uni for nigiri, sashimi, hand rolls, rice bowls or pasta, choose our separate Fresh Sea Urchin Uni Roe product.
How to Serve Whole Sea Urchin
- Open carefully and remove the edible uni lobes
- Serve fresh as sashimi or over sushi rice
- Use the shell as a natural presentation vessel
- Add freshly removed uni to pasta, rice or seafood dishes
Handling & Freshness
Sea urchin is highly perishable. Keep it properly chilled, prepare it promptly after delivery, and handle the spiny shell carefully when opening.
