flying fish roe
Orange caviar substitute
Flying fish roe is the eggs of flying fish, small and crunchy with a mild briny flavor.
Called tobiko in Japanese cuisine, it appears as a bright orange garnish on sushi rolls and poke bowls, though it's often dyed other colors.
The roe pops slightly when bitten, adding texture to dishes: The roll was topped with flying fish roe.
