The common salt powder and amino acid powder are further alternately scattered from the upper side of the fish eggs. The total amount thereof is then filled in the container made of the resin, pressurized and allowed to stand for 5 days and then frozen to afford the objective fish egg product containing 2-10wt.% sodium chloride and 0.1-15wt.% amino acid consisting essentially of the glycine.
