Stuff Larry Eats

Uni or sea urchin is absolutely one of my most favorite foods to eat. Two summers ago, when I was in Hokkaido, we’d drive by seaside villages and stop by fish markets where they’d crack open sea urchins on the spot and serve it to you on the half shell. Since uni’s in season during the winter months and I found a nice batch when I was out shopping today, I decided to recreate a similar dish I had at Basta Pasta last Thanksgiving in New York (awesome restaurant by the way).

So here it is: Capellini tossed in flying fish roe and oyster mushrooms with a uni cream sauce, topped off with a nice slab of uni and salmon roe.
