How to tell if your Uni is good?
Freshly caught Bafun Uni has a bright beautiful Yellow/Orange colour with firm a texture that melts in your mouth. The tastes should never be fishy but instead leave traces of the ocean. The smell should be slightly salty an briny and not have a strong fishiness to it. Each Uni gonad should also be dry, firm and plump, they should not be overly melted or look deflated.
Bafun Uni narabi boxes also have an expiry date on he side of each box, make sure that the Uni is well within the expiry date so ensure that it is still fresh.
Our Purveyors at Shiki SG make sure that all these criteria are met before choosing each box of uni, so you can rest assured that the Uni you receive will be of top quality and freshness.
What's the difference between Yellow & Red Sea Urchin?
Yellow and red uni sea urchins are almost the same. The main difference according to our head chefs and specialists is purely the colour! Some uni tend to be Red while others Yellow or Orange, this could be due to what the uni eat or simply a trait of that particular uni.
Taste wise, they are more or less the same as well. However, some uni enthusiasts do say that the yellow and orange uni is sometimes a bit creamier and sweeter, while the red is slightly drier and richer in its briny flavour.
* Kindly note that packaging might vary depending on the auction results in the mornings.
