The combination of the king crab meat and sudachi (a Japanese citrus) juice adds an excellent flavor. The green sauce is made with fine bonito and kombu (kelp). The red king crab meat and watercress green will be a nice Christmas dish.

Ikura (Salmon Roe) And Beets Roll Sushi Star Version


The chef was inspired by the night sky of winter to make this dish.
The sushi rice was mixed with beets juice. Ikura adds some saltiness to finish up this dish.
