A kind of Hosomaki filled with cucumber...

Domaine(s)
  • Plats cuisinés
DEF

Petit rouleau de sushi garni de concombre.

CONT

Le kappa sait très bien parler japonais et jouer au shogi. S'il y a une nourriture qu'il apprécie plus que la chair des enfants, c'est le concombre. [...] Ce lien avec le concombre a donné le nom kappamaki à une variété de rouleau de sushi avec une tranche de concombre au milieu. (mythologie japonaise)
