How to Make a PHILADELPHIA ROLL (Philly Roll) with The Sushi Man

Smoked salmon and cream cheese… we all know it’s a good combination but how’s it in sushi? Well, the extremely popular Philadelphia roll is proof that it’s not just good on bagels but in makizushi as well. And adding other ingredients such as cucumber and avocado makes it even more of a delight.
The smokiness of the salmon, rich, creamy texture of the cream cheese, and crunchy, fresh flavor of the cucumber makes the roll well balanced and mild enough for any sushi beginner. Not to mention, there’s no raw ingredient so it’s the perfect entry-level sushi and great for young kids.
But the best part of it all is the accessibility of the ingredients. Fresh, “sushi-grade” seafood is not always available for many people, especially here in the States. But you can find quality smoked salmon at almost any grocery store, making the Philly roll one of the easiest sushi rolls you can make at home.
In this video I show you how to make three different variations of the Philadelphia roll and I only use four ingredients: smoked salmon, cream cheese, cucumber, and avocado. Add some sushi rice and nori and you’re ready to roll!

🍣 ABOUT THE SUSHI MAN:
Jun Nakajima, CHEF AND FOUNDER
Raised in a restaurant household, Jun's love for food began at a very early age. His parents have owned and operated a Japanese restaurant for over 30 years where he practiced and honed his culinary skills.
Somewhat forced upon, he was taught the art of sushi making in his teenage years. He quickly fell in love not only with the art but the endless opportunities that came with it.
He has traveled around the globe to try different styles of sushi, most importantly to Japan.
After college, Jun had taken an opportunity to live in the motherland of sushi, working for something completely outside the culinary field. In those two years his appreciation of the culture, people, history and food deepened.
He became addicted to the food scene and found himself traveling from one end of the island to the other, eating and drinking some of the best foods and drinks he's ever had. This experience became the seed which eventually bloomed to become The Sushi Man.

I'm from Brazil and here this type of sushi is extremely popular, you'll find it in any Japanese restaurant, we just don't eat it with avocado. We also coat it with panko bread crumbs and fry it, which is great, try it sometime. We call it hot philadelphia or hot rolls.

[@TheSushiMan]

Nice, that sounds great! Thanks for your suggestion!

Neat tutorial…❤❤❤

[@TheSushiMan]

[@thepugvilleexpress7556]

I just ordered your book on Amazon, does it have the Philadelphia roll recipes in it?

[@TheSushiMan]

The book has the standard Philly roll but not the other two in this video. It does have tons of other sushi recipes in it though that's not on my channel. Hope you enjoy it!

[@hbgriss]

The only issue is getting the rice correct. Also slightly cooked asparagus is a great addition or sub for avo . Imho 💪🏼

[@TheSushiMan]

Yes, getting the rice correct is absolutely key for any type of sushi. And I agree, asparagus is a great addition/sub for this roll!

[@AhmedElsayed-fd6gr]

Very underrated video, great stuff mate.

[@TheSushiMan]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

[@samantharodriguez9528]

After having bariatric surgery, I struggle with digesting rice. Breaks my Latina heart. 😞 I miss eating sushi. Have you ever tried making sticky quinoa? It’s digestion friendly for me.

[@TheSushiMan]

I haven't tried using quinoa myself but seems like it's doable, there's a bunch of recipes online. I'm sure the consistency will be different but worth trying!

[@lucyreina822]

How is spicy mayonnaise made?

[@TheSushiMan]

I have a video on how to make it, check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sGrNZ5Ksgdlrhrs

[@comradebrainnuker7321]

[@TheSushiMan]

Thanks! And it's all good, just keep practicing and hopefully next time it'll be better!

The plastic will get in the food if you cut it

[@DylanJG1]

My thought exactly

[@annpronicheva2189]

This is insane, you can make sushi without any plastic ^(

[@cpm9747]

I love everything except the cutting with the plastic wrap cover. Such a waste of plastic. I'd rather have messy rolls, personally.

[@TheSushiMan]

I get it, it's easier to cut the topped rolls with plastic but you can definitely do without. Just take some practice and sharp knife.

[@MissyTCA]

I am a perfectionist I would rather waste a piece of plastic but my rolls look perfect for the guests to enjoy 😂😂❤❤

[@niket527]

What's up with all these ppl using plastic? Seems pretty whack

[@toxikwastedump]

cucumber in a philadelphia roll LMFAO, no, never
