Cucumber Maki

Description

Cucumber Maki is a simple and refreshing type of sushi roll that’s perfect for those who prefer a light and clean flavor. The roll consists of vinegared sushi rice wrapped in a sheet of nori (seaweed), with fresh cucumber as the main filling. The cucumber is usually julienned into thin strips, adding a cool, crisp crunch to each bite.

This vegetarian roll is often served as a side dish or appetizer in sushi restaurants, offering a mild and refreshing contrast to more flavorful sushi rolls. It’s typically dipped in soy sauce and enjoyed with a small dab of wasabi or pickled ginger for extra zing. Cucumber Maki is a perfect option for those looking for a light, vegetarian sushi choice that still captures the essence of Japanese cuisine
