Sushi type
Western rolls
Western-style or fusion rolls sold under commercial names. Their composition can vary considerably by restaurant.
How to recognize it
What to look for
Names such as Dragon Roll and Rainbow Roll describe catalogue entries with toppings and fillings, not one fixed traditional shape. Check each photo and ingredient list.
How it differs
Some resemble uramaki or other rolls, but a commercial name alone does not establish where the rice sits or whether a restaurant adds raw fish.
