Easy and Delicious Uni Pasta: A Perfect Sea Urchin Dish

When I stumbled upon a group buying program on WeChat, I couldn’t resist ordering 5 lbs of fresh sea urchin. Initially, I planned to make a raw sea urchin donburi, but when I opened them up, they weren’t as fresh as I had hoped. With only a few whole pieces, I decided to create something that didn’t require perfect sea urchin pieces. That’s when I thought of Uni Pasta (Sea Urchin Pasta), a dish that would make the most of the creamy texture and rich taste of sea urchin!

Cook them until shallots become transparent, and then cook a little bit longer until garlic become a bit brownish. Now it’s the time to put in sea urchin, since my sea urchins already break into small pieces, I don’t need to blend them, but if you sea urchin is very fresh and all are big pieces, you need to blend a little bit from blender.
