Maki Ebi

In the world of sushi, where modern and creative trends prevail, there’s one dish that still holds onto its deeply rooted traditions, and that’s Ebi Maki – a roll that, with its appearance and taste, always reminds you of minimalist and traditional Japan. When you gaze at this wonderful sushi roll, it opens up a history that preserves hundreds of years of Japanese heritage, a passion for fishing, and a love for fresh ingredients. Ebi Maki, translated as ‘shrimp roll,’ has its origins in old, good Japan, appearing long before sushi began its journey around the world, and represents respect for the sea, a gift from it. Each piece of Ebi will bring an unforgettable experience to your plate with a delicious rice cushion, juicy shrimp, and seaweed nori, providing the perfect combination of flavors that can momentarily transport you to an exciting journey through the traditional villages of Japanese fishermen, immersing you in Japanese culinary culture.

Anyone who has tried to make Ebi Maki sushi knows that it’s an art that can’t be quickly mastered, and it’s better to entrust it to experienced sushi masters who have spent years learning to prepare this gem of Japanese cuisine. Chefs at Sushi Jo master the technique of making Ebi Maki. They work quickly, efficiently, and with respect for each ingredient individually. Properly seasoning the rice is crucial to not overshadow the taste of the main ingredient – shrimp. Rolling the sushi neatly is essential so that, after slicing, the sushi looks aesthetically pleasing and appetizing. Most importantly, using only the freshest ingredients, something ordinary supermarkets won’t offer. At Sushi Jo, we can bring the entire process together into one beautiful whole in the form of Ebi Maki. Therefore, in every piece of sushi from our chef, there pulsates a passion for quality and tradition.
