ikura
from the belly..
1st the ikura must be rinsed with as hot of water as your hands can stand, in a strainer.
This removes a layer of film from them and they will all appear to turn white. The color will soon return.
If you happen to rinse the salmon eggs in cool water first, they will all turn hard and very difficult to squeeze between your teeth! This is what protects them when the eggs are spawn in the river.
