Hokkaido Uni...nothing like the creamy richness of Santa Barbara Uni, and funnily enough, not even all that similar to uni from elsewhere in Japan. Less briny seaside umami, but in a good way, and with a layering of flavors unlike other unis. I don't think I could ever bring myself to make uni pasta with this stuff...but I'm pretty sure I could just grab my hashi and eat a whole box of it. Definitely try some and see for yourself.

Just how different can stuff be?
