Shirako (Niigata)

Gently rinse the Shirako under cold running water to remove any impurities. Be very careful as Shirako is delicate.

In a small saucepan, combine Dashi stock and Sake. Bring the liquid to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

Carefully add the rinsed Shirako to the simmering liquid. Poach for approximately 30-60 seconds, or until the Shirako turns opaque and is just cooked through. Do not overcook.
