Boston Roll
Posted By Allison On December 29, 2006 @ 3:12 am In Maki Recipes | 17 Comments
This roll is similar to the California Roll [1], using shrimp instead of imitation crab. It’s really good, and the tobiko adds a nice splash of color to the roll.
By the way: If you have never eaten tobiko before, beware! Son had the most fantastic expression on his face when he bit into it and the tobiko started popping in his mouth (I should have gotten a picture! 
). Hehe they do pop in your mouth, so don’t be too surprised!! 
Look for your sushi ideas posted soon (I’m making them tomorrow! ) Happy Holidays everyone!!
I got this roll from the Sushi Chart [2].
Makes 6 rolls, or 36-48 pieces.
