About S&B Foods
S&B Foods (エスビー食品株式会社) was founded 1923 by Minejiro Yamazaki in Asakusa, Tokyo. Yamazaki produced Japan's first commercial domestic curry powder — the "Hidori" brand — and the "S&B" mark (combining "Sun" and "Bird") was added to the trademark in 1931. The flagship Red Can Curry Powder launched 1950, the Golden Curry (ゴールデンカレー) roux range followed, and in 1970 S&B pioneered the tube format for wasabi, karashi, and ginger condiments — now a Japanese kitchen staple.
Manufacturer description: 「まぜるだけのスパゲッティソース 生風味たらこ」 ("just-mix spaghetti sauce, fresh-flavour tarako").
Wafu pasta — Japanese-style pasta
Tarako spaghetti belongs to wafu pasta — Japanese-style pasta dishes that pair Italian noodles with Japanese ingredients (cod roe, soy, seaweed, butter, mushrooms). This is a Japanese pasta in its own right, not an Italian sauce reinterpreted.
Flavour profile
Mild, savoury, deeply umami. The whole cod-roe grains pop on the tongue against a creamy oil-based emulsion. Goes beautifully with butter, nori, or a soft-poached egg.
