Every day tends to be monotonous under the request of refraining from going out. Not enough stimulation ... How about trying this machine for a "spicy" experience? This time, we would like to introduce Hakata's Mentaiko maker Fukuya's "Shinou Hot Emperor".

Spicy Emperor Hot Emperor

The hot emperor is a "super spicy" mentaiko made by blending 7 kinds of spices. It contains about 9 times as much capsaicin as Fukuya's signature product, "Aji no Mentaiko Regular".


In addition, a set of "hot emperor sauce" that adds even more spiciness. It comes in a separate bottle. The contents are seasoning liquid soaked in hot emperor and salmon roe (grains from which the skin of mentaiko is removed), and when this is applied, the spiciness jumps up from about 9 times to about 13.5 times. By the way, the spiciness when only the sauce is licked is about 25 times. I can't imagine it anymore.

How hot is it?

First of all, as it is

At first, the umami of mentaiko wins, and I think for a moment, "That's not a big deal." After a short delay, the spiciness spreads and becomes stronger toward the aftertaste. The spiciness of the mouth tingling and the tongue tingling with Jinjin!


However, there is umami in the spicy food, and if you like spicy food, you can eat it deliciously. Rice goes on too!

When you apply the emperor sauce ...

So what happens when you apply the Emperor sauce? I tried to eat it with a thick mentaiko on rice so that it would be covered evenly ...



The spiciness of another dimension stimulated my mouth, and I couldn't think of anything for a while while saying hi. It was completely overkill.

It's not so hot that you feel the pain of piercing, but the spiciness that stimulates your tongue and ginjin is hard to pull! It's so painful that I'm no longer aware of the taste of mentaiko. I couldn't help but ran to neutralize with milk (milk contains a component called casein that blocks the action of the pungent component).

Probably, it was correct to use 2-3 drops at a time and increase while watching the situation. It's like Tabasco. Do not lick it alone as it can be dangerous. There is a limit to how much you want stimulation.


Without the emperor sauce, the spicy mentaiko is just right. If you sprinkle with Emperor sauce, you will find mentaiko with an unknown spiciness. For those who want an exciting experience, as well as those who like spicy food and are confident in their resistance to spicy foods, why not try it out? The contents are 160g (5.64oz) of hot emperor (mentaiko) and 70g (2.47oz) of emperor sauce. The price is 2,160 yen (tax included). * A separate shipping fee will be charged for mail order.
