The Story Of A “Golden Good Luck” Sushi Roll!
I love food stories – big food, unique food, and of course, food from Japan. Did you know that February 3 was “Setsubun” in Japan?
Well, it was, and that leads to this “solid gold sushi roll!”
The incredible website “RocketNews24” describes Setsubun this way:
“It is an old fashioned day in which some households throw beans to ward off evil and invite good fortune into their lives. That custom is said to be gradually fading away, however, only to be replaced by the custom of eating huge sushi rolls known as ehomaki (lucky direction sushi roll).”

This roll, however, isn’t wrapped in seaweed:
This one is housed in a thin sheet of GOLD LEAF!
