Obviously when we think of cream cheese, we think of Philadelphia Cream Cheese and that’s where the name came from. Philadelphia Sushi RollOne of the well-known American fusion rolls that consists of raw salmon and cream cheese. Main Ingredients: Salmon, Avocado, Asparagus, Cream cheese And that gets even better when it is wrapped up in rice and nori to become tiger roll with that sweet eel sauce. – Everyone likes tempura, especially shrimp tempura. “This is the roll with the best combination of all.” (Masako, Female, 50’s) The concept of putting shrimp tempura has become very popular in Japan as well, and there are onigiri rice balls with shrimp tempura in a sushi roll called “ten-musu”. ![]() The name comes from the yellow shrimp tempura and often times it is served with the eel sauce that gives that tiger print (black and yellow). Tiger (Shrimp Tempura) Sushi RollKnown to some as shrimp tempura roll, this includes a shrimp tempura with vegetables like avocado and cucumber. Main Ingredients: Avocado, Shrimp tempura, Cucumber Because the variation of sushi rolls are infinite, as are their names, we limited the list to the more popular ones we see on most sushi restaurants. Like the nigiri sushi, we asked our audiences about what kind of sushi rolls they liked. While Japanese sushi normally used soy sauce or ponzu sauce, chefs began experimenting with mayonnaise, eel sauce, and more recently sriracha. Aside from creative roll fillings, different sauces were introduced to sushi rolls. But with the use of sushi rolls, chefs were able to “trick” their customers into eating raw fish by putting ingredients like salmon, scallops, spicy tuna, and of course, crab meat and imitation crab meat (although those are cooked). For many, back in the days, the concept of eating fish raw, still raised eyebrows. It was more widely accepted because the fillings didn’t look like raw fish. Sushi rolls became a sensation, and spread across the United States like a brush fire, eventually going global, even coming back to Japan. I guess Americans prefer more stuffings to fill up hungry stomachs. You can kind of find similarities to the American burrito formed from the traditional taquitos from Mexico. Also, while traditional Japanese maki sushi came in a thin sushi roll (hosomaki), uramaki with multiple fillings required more filling space, and thus a thick sushi roll (futomaki) technique was applied. By creating the uramaki, maki sushi not only became edible, it became a new sushi canvas that allowed sushi chefs to explore different ingredients. The traditional maki sushi was not only a turn off because of the blackish green seaweed that surrounded it, it was hard to chew for the still novice sushi eaters in America. Uramaki became the epitome of the western maki sushi, or sushi roll. In the 1980’s the uramaki avocado roll came to California, where it was then combined with crab meat and called the California sushi roll. Because toro was expensive, he substituted the toro with avocado, which had the same creamy texture. He flipped the maki sushi inside out, later to be known as uramaki (reverse sushi roll), so that nori would hide behind the rice. Then, called a Tojo-maki roll, many people were not accustomed to the nori seaweed that surrounded the traditional Japanese traditional maki sushi, and he thus began tweaking the old tradition. ![]() ![]() While you may have guessed that the California sushi roll was “invented” in California, it is said that the inventor of the California sushi roll was Hidekazu Tojo, a Japanese sushi chef that opened a restaurant in Vancouver, Canada. The modern sushi roll phenomenon began with the famous California sushi roll, back in the 1970’s.
