What is a spider roll?

A spider roll is a type of sushi roll that typically contains fried soft-shell crab, avocado, cucumber, and spicy mayonnaise, all wrapped in nori (seaweed) and sushi rice. The name "spider roll" comes from the appearance of the fried crab legs sticking out of the roll, resembling spider legs.

Spider rolls are a popular choice among sushi lovers for their crispy texture, savory flavors, and unique presentation. They are often served with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side for added flavor. Spider rolls can be found on the menu at many sushi restaurants and are a great option for those who enjoy seafood and sushi cuisine.
