Kizoa- SCSU SPIRIT

We're on The Roll !

A Japanese delicacy, sushi is a favorite dish of millions of eaters all across the world. Made with vinegared rice, vegetables, raw and cooked meats, there are several amazing rolls to choose from.

BUT! Which rolls are the best ones to try?

Based on my trial and error with several different rolls, I have compiled a list of my personal Top 5 Sushi rolls.

Even though this list is totally biased, it can give you some insight on the tastiest rolls to try. Here are my Top 5 sushi rolls that will take your test buds on a wild ride.

5. California Roll - The  California Roll is probably the most famous of sushi rolls. Previously named the Tojo roll, it is the father of sushi. The roll consists of crab meat, avocado, and cucumber. It's a simple go to for those who want to stay away from raw fish.

4. Crunch Roll - Often times it gets misconstrued with the Tiger Roll, the Crunch Roll has "tenkasu". Tenkasu is a crispy tempura breading that surrounds the roll. Inside the roll is spicy tempura and seaweed.

3. Spider Roll - If the California roll had a hot older brother, that would be the Spider Roll.  Coming in at 3rd on the list, the Spider Roll is made with tempura soft shell crab, avocado, cucumber, and spicy mayo.

 Personally, spicy flavors aren't to appealing to my taste buds, but it was worth the try. This roll brings an extra kick and is packed with flavor.

2. Dragon Roll - 2nd place on my list is the Dragon Roll. Not only does this sushi roll have an awesome name, it comes with and awesome fish: EEL ! I guess an eel is a water dragon perhaps. In this roll, the eel is rolled with crabsticks, avocado, cucumber, and drizzled with eel sauce.

1. Philadelphia Roll - Last is my personal favorite, the Philadelphia Roll. Very simple, yet flavorful, this roll contains salmon, avocado, and cucumber. In most preparations, the salmon is smoked.
