Sardine with mentaiko stuffing, fettucine with home-made tomato sauceCooking is fun because you can have your very own way on everything you cook and create your taste, without boundary. This time I added some japanese elements to this pasta - the sardines were stuffed with mentaiko (明太子), which is a marinated cod roe and also a common ingredient of Japanese cruisine.
I gave a dash of the uncooked roe on top of the pasta, as well as in the tomato sauce. The mentaiko delivered a complicated flavour of sweet, slightly spicy and fishiness.
