【Father's Day Special】Victorian Sea Urchin Short Spine Roe 10A (Sashimi Grade, Wooden Box)

Victorian Sea Urchin Short Spine Roe 10A — Wooden Box 【生食级】维州10A级短刺海胆 木盒装

A Father's Day Box

Presented in a traditional wooden box rather than the usual tray — the way premium uni is packed in Japan, and the reason this one reads as a gift rather than an ingredient. Limited numbers for Father's Day.

10A — The Top of Our Grade

Sea urchin is graded on the colour, firmness and size of the roe lobes. 10A is the highest grade we buy: full, evenly-formed lobes with a clean golden colour and no bitterness. Below that the roe is still good eating but softer and paler, and it is the grade — not the species — that decides whether uni belongs on a sashimi plate or in a sauce.

Short Spine, from Victorian Waters

Short spine urchin carries a richer, sweeter, more custard-like roe than the long spine variety, with a shorter season and a smaller catch. This is Victorian caught and sashimi grade — intended to be eaten raw.

• Taste Profile: Deeply sweet and buttery, with the clean mineral finish of cold southern water. No iodine sharpness.

• Two Sizes: 100g suits two people as a course; 200g is a shared centrepiece.

Serving Suggestions

• Best as it comes — straight from the box with a little of the Yuasa Kurasho white soy, which lifts the sweetness without darkening the roe.

• Uni don: over warm rice with a spoon of ikura and nothing else.

• With pasta: folded through hot spaghetti off the heat at the very end, never cooked.
