Experience the Unique Eho Salad Roll This Setsubun

As Setsubun approaches on February 3rd, Salad Cafe is set to offer a special twist on the traditional Ehomaki sushi. Known for its commitment to fresh salads and healthy eating, Salad Cafe, a subsidiary of Kenko Mayo Co., Ltd., introduces the Eho Salad Roll available exclusively at four locations in Kanto. This limited edition roll promises to bring a fresh perspective to the customary festive food.

What is Ehomaki?

For those unfamiliar, Ehomaki is a special sushi roll eaten during Setsubun, a Japanese festival celebrated to drive away evil spirits and bring good fortune. Traditionally, Ehomaki is filled with ingredients like fried egg, cooked canpyo, and grilled eel, all rolled in seasoned rice and seaweed. However, Salad Cafe has taken a refreshing approach, crafting a roll that resonates with the modern palate while honoring the tradition.

Innovating Tradition with Eho Salad Roll

Salad Cafe’s Eho Salad Roll features a delightful blend of ingredients inspired by California rolls, designed to be enjoyed like a salad. This innovative creation includes smoky salmon and avocado, green leaves, crispy cucumber, fluffy kinshi tamago (thinly shredded Japanese omelet), and a delicious tuna salad. Each bite harmonizes the rich flavors of the smokey salmon and creamy avocado, complemented by the satisfying crunch of fresh vegetables. The vibrant colors of pink, green, and yellow not only please the eye but also enhance your appetites.

Moreover, these rolls are conveniently offered in a half-size, making them perfect for various occasions – whether you're enjoying a leisurely lunch or a quick dinner.
