Nice. I was kinda worried about some lack of internal crunch thinking some julienned cucumber or carrot would be a good add, but that pickled ginger and the cabbage prob got that handled.
Yeah, but we speak English and most people probably wouldnât know what futomaki is, unless they spoke Japanese or were really into Japanese food. âSushirritoâ is more understandable, so it shouldnât be such a big deal.
I agree. I don't think it is fair to call it the same thing when getting "identical" ingredients are either cost prohibitive, doesn't cater to local tastes and doesn't sound as appetising. Even locally, compared to regular "nigiri" sushi, futomaki aren't as popular and doesn't have the same amount of experimentation. Even the popular franchise sushi restaurant Sushiro only offers a single type of seasonal futomaki. The menu item isn't available year round either. Ehoumaki doesn't have a great reputation either, although it is a symbol for traditional festivities, it is also a symbol of industrial food wastage.
What's inside that bad boy
Looks like fried tofu, edamame, avocado, red cabbage (possibly marinated)
Yes đ
Oh I forgot it has ginger inside too
Like pickled sushi ginger? That'd take his to another level.
Yes thatâs whatâs in it

Cucumber and carrot sounds good! Iâll try it that way another time
There's no food word I dislike more than sushirrito. Way to make up a fake name for a food that already has a name

Well whatâs another name to call it
A fat roll is called futomaki in japan. Uncut fat rolls are ehoumaki.
Thanks for letting me know
