What is a Super California roll exactly?

Question

I got sushi today and i got that and I know it has raw crab,avacado,seaweed and rice but there's this red stuff around it and it looks like fish eggs.Just want to know.

Answer 1

yep that is what it was. but the crab was actually imitation probably. most are. not raw.

Answer 2

The fish eggs are Tobike- Tobiko  is the Japanese word for the flying fish roe used to create certain types of sushi. Tobiko is sometimes used as an ingredient in California rolls.

The eggs are small, ranging from 0.5mm - 0.8mm. For comparison, tobiko is larger than masago (smelt roe), but smaller than ikura (salmon roe). Plain tobiko has a red-orange color and a mild smoky/salty taste. Sometimes, tobiko has complementary flavors added such as wasabi (green-colored), ginger (orange-colored) or squid ink (black-colored). It is similar to fish roe.

Masago is frequently substituted for tobiko due to its similar appearance and flavor.
