What ingredients are used in Lobster Sushi Rolls?
Langoustine tails, cucumber, and avocado slices are topped with masago and kewpie mayo then rolled tightly in soy paper.
What is langoustine tails?
Langoustine are little crayfish sized lobsters that are found in saltwater seas and oceans. They have a sweet and delicate flavor and tender texture similar to lobster.
You can find pre-cooked frozen langoustine tails in many grocery stores. I usually buy them at my local Trader Joes.
What is masago (capelin roe)?
Masago is tiny orange eggs or roe that come from the capelin fish. They are most commonly used in Japanese sushi cuisine.
What is soy paper and where can I find it?
Soy paper is thin, flexible sheets made from compressed soybeans finished with a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
They are commonly used for making sushi and perfect to use in recipes where traditional roasted seaweed sheets may become wet and soggy.
You can find soy paper in most major supermarkets or in Japanese/Asian markets. You can also find them online as well.
Tips on making this lobster sushi rolls recipe?
- Make sure to completely drain and dry the langoustine tails so you don’t end up with watery sushi.
- Use crunchy types of cucumbers such as Persian, baby, Japanese cucumbers.
- For an extra kick, feel free to add a sprinkle of red pepper.
- You can dip the rolls into soy sauce mixed with wasabi or enjoy as is.
- Use a bamboo sushi mat to help make the rolls easier.
