Cucumber Roll Sushi

Cucumber roll sushi is a type of sushi roll that consists of thin slices of cucumber wrapped in a thin sheet of nori (seaweed) and sometimes sushi rice. This type of sushi is a popular vegan option and is often served as an appetizer at Japanese restaurants. The cucumber roll is also a great way to add crunch and texture to a sushi platter.
