Yellowtail Sushi Roll

Tekkamaki uses tuna as a filling, so the center is red. However, in Nagasaki Prefecture, they use fresh white fish such as Yellowtail, Hamachi or Kampachi so the Tekkamaki are white instead. Today we will make the white Tekkamaki. The fresh yellowtail is chewy and really tasty.
