There is a big difference between imitation crab ("krab") and real, sweet Blue Crab. For sushi lovers who know the difference, finding a high-quality Blue Crab Hand Roll in Covina is a true delight. At Yashima Restaurant, we are proud to serve the real thing.

Our Blue Crab Hand Roll is a customer favorite, known for its delicate sweetness and simple, premium ingredients. It’s a perfect example of how great sushi relies on the quality of the catch.

What Makes Our Blue Crab Hand Roll Special?

Unlike the typical California roll which often uses surimi (imitation crab), our Blue Crab Hand Roll features:

  • Real Blue Crab Meat: We use genuine blue crab, known for its naturally sweet, tender, and succulent meat. It has a distinct flavor profile that is far superior to imitation options.
  • Crisp Nori: A great hand roll (Temaki) is all about the crunch. We wrap the crab in high-quality, crisp seaweed that snaps when you bite into it.
  • Simple Seasoning: We don't drown the crab in heavy sauces. We mix it lightly with just enough Japanese mayo to bind it, letting the natural sweetness of the crab shine through.

A Must-Have Experience: The combination of warm rice, crisp cool cucumber (optional), and sweet blue crab meat wrapped in crunchy nori is pure sushi perfection.

The Perfect Quick Bite or Starter

Hand rolls are meant to be eaten immediately while the seaweed is crisp. This makes our Blue Crab Hand Roll the perfect item to order as soon as you sit down for dinner in Covina. It's a fantastic appetizer before your main course of ramen or larger sushi platter.
