Uni gunkan maki

Uni gunkan maki is a traditional type of sushi that comes in the elongated shape of a ship (gunkan). This version of gunkan is made with uni or sea urchin gonads as a topping for nori-wrapped sushi rice. The flavors are sweet, rich, and creamy, with notes of the sea. The texture is delicate and melting in the mouth. The dish can be found at most sushi restaurants in Japan, and it's often accompanied by soy sauce, wasabi, and sushi ginger on the side.
