KALDI Hakata mustard noodle powder
Mentaiko finished in powder form. Mentaiko from "Kanefuku", a mentaiko maker headquartered in Fukuoka, is used. It contains 20g (0.71oz) and the price is 189 yen (tax included).
The contents are smooth like a sprinkle and have a beautiful pink color. When you put it on rice, it absorbs water and returns to a moisturized state.
It doesn't have the popping grain texture and vivid flavor of raw mentaiko, but it is useful when you want to easily finish it with "mentaiko flavor". You can easily make menta mayonnaise by mixing it with mayonnaise, and tarama salad by mixing it with potato salad. You can also use it for Meita France, pasta, rice balls, stir-fried dishes, etc.

It comes in a bag with a zipper, so it has a long shelf life and can be used little by little. It's a nice item for people who buy whole raw mentaiko and leave it behind, or who find it troublesome to loosen it when mixing it with food.
