So it's a Japanese food made by a traditional sushi chef who invented it in Canada and gained its known name because Californians loved it. That's one heck of a journey for what's inside out sushi
Aka, just like how italians would see our 'pizza' as 'American Pizza' and germans would see our 'hot dogs' as 'American Hotdogs', japanese would see our 'sushi' as 'American Sushi'.
California rolls did actually invented in California by a Japanese chef and there no evidence of Californians went to Canada a chef decided to called the rolls California
i think its just cause you guys gave yourself a bad rap with all your decisions so people can justify picking on you for little things to like throwing salt in all your cuts
I work at a sushi place while going to college, the chef makes it fresh to order, and love the California, shrimp tempera, red dragon, Las Vegas, salmon killer, Alaskan, spicy tuna, and spicy salmon rolls.
I had no idea Tojo invented the california roll. Mad respect. I've eaten at his restaurant a couple of times and will have to go back again now. No wonder there are so many sushi restaurants in vancouver (over 600 apparently). They are by far the most common type of restaurant.
+El Bottoo I see you are bashing Japanese people everywhere, well the proof is, You *DONT* and stop fucking hating. Your country is shit anyways.

I went to Chef Tojo's restaurant a year ago, and all that I can say is that it is by far the best food that I have ever had. If in Vancouver and you have the chance to go there, don't pass up the opportunity to go, truly life-changing in terms of food
They are not the only culprits in name swapping: Germany has two things with "Russian" in the name, Russischer Zupfkuchen and Russisch Brot, and none of these has anything to do with Russia... They aren't even known in Russia. Ah, and @USA, do you know about German Chocolotae Cake....? Yeah, well, they don't know about it in Germany, sorry.
The most widely accepted view by food historians attributes the invention to Ichiro Mashita, sushi chef at the Tokyo Kaikan in Little Tokyo, Los Angeles.[3] According to this account, Mashita began substituting avocado for toro (fatty tuna) in the off-season, and after further experimentation, developed the prototype, back in the 1960s[4][5][6] (or early 1970s[7]). The early recipe used only frozen king crab legs, since surimi imitation crab was not yet available.[8] Cucumber, mayonnaise, and sesame seed were missing; these ingredients were all added later.[3]The original California roll was wrapped traditional style, with the nori seaweed on the outside, which American customers tended to peel off. So eventually the roll "inside-out", i.e. uramaki version was developed.[9] This adaptation has also been credited to Mashita by figures associated with the restaurant.[a][7] A rivaling claim is that the California roll was actually created in Canada, by Chef Hidekazu Tojo, a Japanese native who moved to Vancouver, British Columbia in August 1971. Tojo insists he is the innovator of the "inside-out" sushi, and it got the name "California roll" because it was popular with patrons from Los Angeles.[10][11] His original claims of invention don't even touch on the use of avocado, essential to the California roll.[12] The earliest documented claim for the invention of the California roll credits a chef named Ken Seusa at the Kin Jo sushi restaurant near Hollywood. The claim was made by Mrs. Fuji Wade, manager of the restaurant, and reported in an Associated Press news feed in 1979. Food writer Andrew F. Smith observes that this claim stood uncontested for more than 20 years.[13][14] The AP story had appeared very shortly after the term "California Roll" was used in print, in the Los Angeles Times and an Ocala, Florida newspaper on November 25, 1979.[13] The California roll was featured by Gourmet magazine in 1980, and taken up by a restaurant critic for The New York Times the following year.[15] After becoming a favorite in Southern California, the dish became popular all across the United States by the 1980s. The roll contributed to sushi's growing popularity in the United States by easing diners into more exotic sushi options.[16] Sushi chefs have since devised many kinds of rolls, beyond simple variations of the California roll.
I'm not so sure it's much of a lie (like your separate comment claims). It seems more like the Californian Tokyo guy got the avocado/ingredients and Tojo got the rolling method. Still interesting to see what's been dug up though.
I was the opposite, my first piece of sushi was a rainbow roll and since I'm used to eating raw things from Southeast Asia I figured it'll be good, been eating sushi once a week ever since.
I remember sushi being whispered about in Vancouver in - when? - early 80s? There was a place downtown called the Ichibankan, and our local Mensa newsletter announced than one of our female members would lead a foray into the strange world of sushi for those who wanted to sign up. I did, and it was a lot of fun. Two chefs standing in the middle of a conveyor kept it full of delicacies that traveled past the diners at nose height just back of the eating counter. Dishes were priced by the colour of plate they rested on, starting at about a dollar, maybe 75¢. No menu, just recommendations from fellow diners: "Those yellow ones on the grey trays - excellent!" When we were done, the hosts totted up our bills by the quantity and colours of your plates. Never heard or saw of any such operation in years to come, but living just off North Vancouver's main drag today, I could literally hit a sushi joint with a pebble, walk to the end of the other block for another, and its peak, I could very nearly find one one every block from 20th to the seashore ("O"). Sushi's gone from exotic to everyday to not being special enough anymore to attract enough diners!
Let’s admit it: our first sushi was always a California roll. Now some of us are brave enough to try different and more outgoing and Japanese flavors but the first ever sushi that we tried was the basic California
Huh....fascinating! I was introduced to sushi very well by a friend who explained what I was about to eat, and how to eat it. Already was adventurous in my food choices from growing up in a very culturally mixed neighborhood, but it took me to my thirties before sushi entered my life. Never looked back!
inside-out technique itself was not his invention but a very minor rolling technique known from long ago. but it was so great he knew the technique and adopted it to "california roll".
White girls be like " Omg I love sushi!" then when they order " I'llone tempura/cucumber/avocado/california roll?" Or they get really exotic and get a spicy tuna.
Props to that guy for making sushi popular, but, on the other hand, screw that guy. Sushi is much less messy to eat with the seaweed on the outside. Plus, it just adds more cheap rice to the rice/(total sushi volume) ratio. Less yummy sushi fillers. And for the record, roasted seaweed is delicious, so screw those close-minded 70s consumers as well.
INGREDIENTS 1 16-ounce (450 g) loaf of Italian bread or French bread 1/2 cup (1 stick, 112 g) unsalted butter, softened 2 large cloves garlic, smashed and minced 1 heaping tablespoon of freshly chopped parsley 1/4 cup (25 g) freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional)Preheat oven to 350°F. 1 Preheat oven to 350°F. Make the butter, garlic, parsley mixture as above. 2 Prepare the garlic bread: Cut the loaf in half, horizontally. Mix the butter, garlic, and parsley together in a small bowl. Spread butter mixture over the the two bread halves.3 Heat in oven for 10 min: Place on a sturdy baking pan (one that can handle high temperatures, not a cookie sheet) and heat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10 minutes. 4 Sprinkle with Parmesan (optional) and broil: Remove pan from oven. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over bread if you want. Return to oven on the highest rack. Broil on high heat for 2-3 minutes until the edges of the bread begin to toast and the cheese (if you are using cheese) bubbles. Watch very carefully while broiling. The bread can easily go from un-toasted to burnt. 5 Slice: Remove from oven, let cool a minute. Remove from pan and use a bread knife to cut into 1-inch thick slices. Serve immediately. Enjoy the garlic bread 🍞
Damn dude this channel is dope. It's basically the same caliber as Ted-Ed and Buzzfeed (which sucks). It's so professional and way closer (legit) than similar channels. Great Big Story truly great
So a dish was made in Canada that was named "California Roll" which is a type of dish from Japan. Reminds me of the "You eat a triangle slice of a pizza that comes from a fuller round shape pizza that comes in a box" thing
So it's a Japanese food made by a traditional sushi chef who invented it in Canada and gained its known name because Californians loved it. That's one heck of a journey for what's inside out sushi
Wikipedia tells a different tale.
You should look up the origin of Caesar salad.

I work at a sushi place while going to college, the chef makes it fresh to order, and love the California, shrimp tempera, red dragon, Las Vegas, salmon killer, Alaskan, spicy tuna, and spicy salmon rolls.
I'm just the waiter, but the chef is a family friend, he's spent years making sushi, and his rolls are really good, including the deep fried ones.

People out west really love the non-Japanese sushi and maki, eh.

inside-out technique itself was not his invention but a very minor rolling technique known from long ago.
