What Is A Spider Tempura Roll?
A spider tempura roll is a type of sushi roll that typically consists of deep-fried soft-shell crab, avocado, cucumber, and sometimes other ingredients like spicy mayo or tempura flakes. The roll is wrapped in seaweed and sushi rice and cut into bite-sized pieces. The name “spider” comes from the appearance of the crab legs sticking out of the roll, resembling spider legs. It is a popular sushi roll option at Japanese restaurants.
