spider roll
Soft-shell sushi
A spider roll is a type of sushi roll featuring soft-shell crab as its main ingredient, typically including cucumber, avocado, and spicy mayo, wrapped in rice and seaweed.
The name comes from the fried crab's legs extending outward like spider legs: I'll have the spider roll and a salmon nigiri.
