Ikuradon

Description

Ikuradon is a simple Japanese dish which consists of plain rice topped with ikura - the plump salmon roe. Incredibly popular in Japan, ikura is incorporated in many traditional dishes, and before consumption, it is usually marinated in a flavorful broth based on soy sauce, mirin, and sake. Traditionally served in bowls, the delicate roe is placed on top of the rice and can be eaten plain or complemented with various condiments such as raw egg yolks or strips of dry seaweed.
