Cod milt
November 12, 2008 on 8:14 pm | In Offal | CommentsYou are asking yourself what is cod Milt, also know as soft roes in the UK. In Japan there geographical aliases, including shirako, kiku, and tachi. Well to keep it very simple and straight forward its cod sperm, its only available in the fall and winter months and is a delicacy in Japan.
This dish is a favorite of mine and I serve it on a regular basis at the restaurant during the fall and winter months.

I was so looking forward to this when I was there in October, but it came off the menu.
How would you describe the taste?

Oh how I love you for putting some of my favorites from school on your menu. Specially the hard to find stuff.

How long do you poach for?

Sorry, man. I’ve tried cod milt — can’t get over the custardy texture. Bravo for using it, though!
