California Roll Sushi

The California Roll is a type of sushi made with avocado, cucumber, and crab (or imitation crab) rolled up in a sheet of nori and vinegared rice. It is usually rolled inside-out, so that the nori is on the inside and the rice is on the outside. It is often served with soy sauce and pickled ginger. The California Roll is one of the most popular types of sushi in the United States and is often the first type of sushi that many people try.
