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 entrylevel sushi and great for young kids.
But the best part of it all is the accessibility of the ingredients. Fresh, “sushigrade” 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.
