The following is a basic spicy sushi roll, readily suitable for either crab or tuna. Different people will be suited to different degrees of spiciness for the sauce, so you may want to adjust proportions accordingly to your liking. Final product will be cool and slightly sweet at first, with a tight, hot afterbite following, and then linger for a while after with a duller burning, flavorful taste.

Very good! I was planning on making my own Japanese seven spice (even printed out a recipe for it), but after looking in the cupboard, I realized that I actually had a brand new bottle on hand (YAY! Not sure why I bought it, but I was glad I did!). The flavor were great and the guys loved it...a definite keeper~YUM! Thanks for sharing. :)

I haven’t made this yet but how come it’s called a tuna roll when there is no tuna in it ?

We used this recipe for the sauce and added it to our own customized sushi ingredients. It was delicious - a little spicy, savory, and a dash of tangy. Highly recommend! Pro tip - you can find a recipe for the Japanese 7 spice on this site.
