Futomaki Sushi

Futomaki Sushi is a type of sushi roll that is popular in Japan. It is typically made with a variety of vegetables and seafood, such as cucumber, avocado, crab meat, and shrimp, rolled into a large seaweed nori sheet. It is usually served in large slices and is often cut into smaller pieces before being served. The flavors of Futomaki Sushi are usually quite bold, with a sweet and savory combination that can be quite pleasing to the palate. It is a great dish to enjoy as part of a larger sushi spread, or as a meal in itself.
