English term or phrase: whitefish roe
It is easy for us in Scandinavia to translate sushi into Scandinavian. We share the Japanese people’s love for fish and shellfish, and even though we don’t have the same abundance that they have, we have a great deal of raw materials that we can use and many of them can measure up to the other exclusive raw materials throughout the world; Kalix ***whitefish roe***, pickled herring, and our charr are just a few examples.

ホワイトフィッシュの卵
Explanation:
ホワイトフィッシュの中ではスカンジナビアにありそうのはcommon whitefish (学名Coregonus lavaretus)しか思い浮かばないので、この訳が最も適切だと思います。

"common"という言葉がなくても、十分に通じると思います。

ご参考になりましたら幸いです。
