Rainbow roll

History

The Rainbow Roll was created in Los Angeles, California in the 1980s. It was designed to cater to the American palate, incorporating a variety of different flavors and textures. The roll is named for its colorful appearance, which is reminiscent of a rainbow.

Preparation

The Rainbow Roll is typically made with a base of a California roll, which consists of sushi rice, nori (seaweed), cucumber, crab meat (or imitation crab), and avocado.
