Golden Bafun Uni Hand Roll Kit - バフンウニ＋海苔＋シャリのスペシャル金箔セット
This easy-to-prepare hand roll kit features the highest quality Bafun uni from Toyosu market's daily auctions. We recommend that you pair it with fresh wasabi for the perfect nigiri or gunkan.
Included Items
- Bafun uni box (250g): this level of quality is normally only found in Tokyo's most exclusive sushi establishments
- Nori seaweed for sushi (5 sheets): vacuum packed to preserve the nori's tastiness and crispness
- Nigiri shaped sushi rice (15 pieces): ready to eat and seasoned with vinegar, made from high quality Japanese rice grains
- 24K edible gold leaf (10 sheets): individually packaged for convenience
- Nikiri soy sauce from Takuya's sushi shop ORIZUMÉ (15ml bottle): brewed with konbu, sake, and mirin, this soy sauce recipe is preferred by master sushi chefs across Japan for its delicate balance with seafood
※ 1 Brands may vary, because the best boxes on each day are usually not from the same brand
※ 2 Uni can also be ordered separately at $498 per box (please contact us directly regarding this).
※ 3 This box is for the highest quality of uni in Japan. We also offer a more reasonably priced uni for everyday occasions and those who would like to try high-quality Hokkaido uni for the first time.
Uni is uni, so why are there so many different price points?
High end seafood is sold by auction at Toyosu Market, so bid prices are solely determined by how much buyers are willing to pay for a given box's quality. In this case, remember the adage "you get what you pay for."

How do you guarantee the freshness of my seafood? (Hint: it's much more than just using the fastest air shipping)
Takuya has extensive experience working in the seafood industry, consistently handling high-end fish when he worked as an auctioneer at Tsukiji Market (now known as Toyosu Market) for over 10 years. From logistical solutions like oxygen-regulated water tanks to traditional Japanese techniques such as ikejime, Takuya will draw on his expertise to deliver you the highest level of freshness and quality. To learn more about how fresh seafood reaches your doorsteps, click here for an interesting read.
To share his love of seafood with you, Takuya hand-picks a fresh selection of the highest quality fish every week, and he hopes that you will enjoy them as much as he does. However, he also know that some expert foodies will want to explore and try even more seafoods!
Toyosu Market is full of Japan's rich culinary wonders (not just seafood, but also fruits and produce), and Takuya-san will be able to source any item that you are looking for on the auction floor. He has a lot of knowledge about the best season ('shun') for each species, fishing locations/towns, and varieties, so he would love to talk with you and share his passion for seafood. Just send him an email or use the contact form!
For example, if you are looking for the highest grade of uni that is exclusively found at Tokyo's top restaurants (these can go from $600-1000 per box), Takuya will get these for you at the auction. Or if you are looking for live kegani, he can arrange for them to be shipped from Hokkaido the moment they are pulled out of the water. If you are confident in your knife skills and have a lot of stomachs to fill, you could even try making sushi with a 3kg block of bluefin tuna.

Why we launched Tsukiji Selections
After moving to Canada, I realized that there were many people who wanted to eat authentic Japanese fish, but did not have the chance to try them. Through Tsukiji Selections, I wanted to share delicious fish with as many people as possible, because people feel HAPPY when they discover delicious foods!
However, as much as tasty fish can make people happy, it can also be a huge burden on the environment. If we continue to capture a limited number of marine fish, the ecosystem will gradually collapse, making it impossible to return to its original balance. A huge part of my mission when starting Tsukiji Fish Market is to promote sustainable seafood. I want everyone to know that there are so many more types of fish out there, beyond the ones that people are already familiar with in BC. Adding these new fish to your diet not only makes a tasty addition to your family dinner table, but also diversifies our consumption patterns. If we are able to explore and enjoy an even larger variety of fish, we can reduce our strain on overfished populations.
With sustainability in mind, I am committed to introducing a variety of high quality fish which are hard to find in Canada, so that more people become aware of the thousands of seafood species that they are missing out on.
