Easy Homemade Sushi Rolls (Philly Roll)

[Derek6563MUSIC]

the knife wasn't wrong, you just forgot to wet it...

[PynkPhanatic]

The restaurant I go to, the Philadelphia roll has avocado and cream cheese in it.

[NUHS23]

when you cut, start from the back of the blade and but back.

[GummyTumor]

I would of never thought to use salmon flavored cream cheese. I always looked at it at the grocery store and thought "Ew. Gross! Who eats this?!", even though I love salmon. Ha ha! But it makes perfect sense to use it on sushi. Thanks for the idea!

[MsPokerface1124]

Yummy

[MsJadeci]

You should use half a sheet of nori...

[twilightyip]

Put water on the knife.

[gigglinlemonade]

omg. i just made this... :) thnks ...:)

[kayayareeye]

aw i wanted to rate this vid thumbs up. i love it! super non-intimidating sushi <3 must try!

[664801291]

you forgot to put water in your knife

[meikokiem]

because i want to try it out this weekend... and cook some for Christmas ...>//< ekkkkk

[meikokiem]

WOW it looks so good. ... can you make chicken or pork kind? because i don't like to eat fish..

[kayayareeye]

@meikokiem there are no rules! i think some strips of teriyaki chicken would be DELISH! :D

[MaiHarinder]

I tried to "like" this, but I couldn't. Oh well, I would have if I could have, but I couldn't so I didn't.

You can use all sorts of stuff in these. I'm a vegetarian and love to make a modified California roll with tofu and avocado and cucumber. Totally refreshing.

And, you cooking diva, are a delight!

[ridicula00]

I'm gonna try this next friday with my boyfriend hahah... hope it comes out just like yours... my kitchen will suffer

[gsaville1949]

I love sushi, You've encouraged me to try it, and by the way I love your commentary and litle giggle it's cute and so are you.

[linpooh08]

@yamachicken yes we do!

[TheWishfulMe]

Looks delicious. :)

[111076tom]

Isn't sushi raw fish?

[JTjason896]

@111076tom There are different types of rolls. Typically, this isn't the average Philly roll. A normal Philly roll, has slightly smoked still mainly raw salmon, and philly cream cheese. Stereotypically, sushi is seen as rolls. But traditional sushi, is a small rectangle of rice, and a strip like piece of raw fish on it.

[yamachicken]

@111076tom it doesn't have to be.

[toangelika]

thank you for learning this to me :-) love it

[eliichocolate]

Tip for cutting the rolls: cut a slice, and wipe your knife with a wet cloth, then cut again :D so that the rice and nori won't stick to it.

[willing2luv30]

Toasting the wrap over the stove brings out the flavor alot.

[unlucky13tattoo]

great video. Only one thing 6:11 Please please please watch your fingers. Wow that's close and improper. But good job otherwise.

[amian58]

I have been wanting to try making sushi forever I even bought the roller , the pickled ginger, and the nori about three months ago LOL you gave me the inspiration to just do it ! I am scared to use raw fish but I will use avocado, cucumber and maybe some sweet potato, and I think some cooked salmon cakes would taste awesome too !

[BIGBOSSandTHEDOLL]

YUMMY!!!!!!!!

[Istudynak1d]

very nice video I'm going to try to make this at home for my gf

[A2daA2daW92]

is it important to always pre rinse the rice because im hearing that it depends on what type of rice you use as to whether or not you are to pre-rinse the rice

[trini467]

@1prettysoul LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!....off to download the cookbook then

[reginalddburneyshow]

nice video

[lookupbeblessed]

I'm hungry!

[HourGlassbyLove]

Sushi is one of my favorite indulgences, I dont have it often, because its expensive here in Chicago. Thank you for an awesome alternative, Monique!! Cant wait to try this recipe!! Thank Youuuuuu(singing:D)

[1krzypraz]

I love sushi and you made this look so easy that I will have to try this...to my favorites it goes!

[Bangerz0604]

before u cut ur sushi...put ur knife each time in water...that way the rice wont stick on the knife and it wont look messed up

[CaliRed121]

@Bangerz0604 thank you for that tip!!! Cuz i swear i DESTROY my sushi rolls when i try and cut them LOL

[ebony0421]

You made making this look so easy. I may have to try your recipe.

[mccain95]

I didn't know you lived in NC. What part do you stay in?

[mstiaradean]

OMG! I have to try this!

[1dawnesha]

Look very tasty!

[indigolady52]

I remember eating my first sushi. The Asian guy said it was supposed to be popped whole into my mouth. I obeyed. I regretted. Standing there with a rotted fishy tasting, cold icky rice ball with bits of chunky slimy center, wishing time would stop and I could pfthhooo it across the room, I had tears in my eyes as I politely chewed briefly, swallowed, and shuddered. Never again!! And I love seafood ~ but not sushi. I'm sure your recipe is the bomb for those who love it, though! Love your vids!

[pinklilies84]

they look so good n so easy to make!

[writteninth3stars]

neat! I love sushi and the different California-like rolls. I'm not brave enough to try the raw salmon. I'll try this with that flavored cream cheese and add crab meat. I used to eat sushi rolls as a kid in Guam..they were so good..so many variations..in Guam they put SPAM in them. ;-) I think my kids will like this...they even like to eat seaweed wrapper by itself. Have you thought of buying a small rice cooker? It can save you a lot of time!

[armywife7806]

Use imitation crab meat and mayo instead of that cream cheese salmon crap lol... alot better flavor... also use avacado instead of cucumbers... so much better!!!!!!

[123sherylin]

@armywife7806

i was thinking the same thing about avocados instead... what about canned crab???

[the1lique]

@123sherylin That's how I make my sushi...I used canned crab meat and avocados, I dont use the cucumber but Im sure it would be just as good. I dont use the salmon cream cheese either; but I have made it with homemade tempura shrimp, avocado, cucumber and crab as well and it's DELICIOSO!!!! :-)

[sinnamonnbrown]

where is the fish? im guessing you used salmon cream cheese instead of reg. cream cheese and salmon?

[shanae48228]

Could you show how you would fry it? I wanna make a Yum Yum Roll (which is avacado, shrimp, king crab, eel sauce, and spicy mayo) but the Japanese restaurant I go to deep fries it.

[cralyjr]

a tip for cutting sushi- wet the knife with water before every slice. its a lil more time consuming but glides right through the roll

[TheRealQuerida]

Do you like raw fish sushi? If not, you're definitely missing out spicy tuna roll or spicy salmon roll is so bomb! So good! ;)

[shannonbel]

You are from NC, I am too

[hugthecook]

@shannonbel me 3

[breathtaking09]

mmmmm i loveeee sushi ^_^

[outhong]

what part of nc do you live in? not to be a creep but i have family down there

[hunniegolden]

@outhong i have wanted to ask the same thing for years but havent cause I didnt want to seem creepy either.

[hawtinhawaii]

Nice! You just need to wet the knife when you slice the sushi. It helps it cut smoother. :)

[ashleynmoore12]

Now I want some rice.

[ataylorai1]

Use a bread knife next time.

[ibemamo]

I am so glad you shared this recipe. I always order this when I eat at the sushi place, now I can just make it at home :)

[icantremembernumbers]
