Maguro Maki

Maguro Maki is a classic example of minimalism in sushi, highlighting the natural taste and texture of tuna. “Maguro” is the Japanese name for tuna, and in this roll, it is the main ingredient. A piece of fresh, juicy tuna, typically cut into strips, is wrapped in sushi rice, and then the entire structure is tightly rolled in a sheet of nori. The simplicity of preparation allows the flavor of the tuna to fully unfold, which can range from deep red and lean (akami) to more tender and oily (chu-toro or otoro, depending on quality). This roll is an excellent choice for those who appreciate the pure, genuine taste of fish, and serves as a perfect accompaniment to other dishes or a standalone light snack
