Have you ever eaten shad roe? Do you know what it is? It’s the egg sac of the shad who are swimming upstream to spawn in our local rivers right now – but they won’t be here long.

Prep is easy – just sauté in butter, add a little salt and pepper, and dig in. Doesn’t get any more local or fresh than this!

The Cataumet Fish Market is selling this spring treat for $12.99 a lb.
