Fairy Tale Sushi
I'm no sushi expert by any means, but Tony and I do enjoy it every once in a while for a special dinner. We were out for a date and I was thrilled to discover something I had never seen before: a Beauty and the Beast roll! Of course I had to get it.
Most sushi menus will feature a Snow White roll, with snow crab and white tuna, also on the menu above. I liked that this restaurant also topped it with "cherry kiss cream" which I don't think is usually part of the description.
I thought that the BATB roll would be only a local specialty but it turns out there's a somewhat standard recipe for it-this picture is from a restaurant in Orlando.
I did find one restaurant, Thelonious Monkfish, that has a specialty fairy tale sushi roll section. It's fun, and although mostly random, you can see some connections between the tale and the ingredients. The menu even includes little descriptions/snippets of the tales too. Fairy tale menu below.
Has anyone else come across any fairy tale rolls?
Sleeping Beauty Roll $18.95
Like Princess Aurora asleep in her chamber waiting to be woken with a kiss, this blonde roll is prepared with white tuna (escolar)*, crushed pineapple + tempura flakes wrapped in yellow soy paper + sushi rice, draped with salmon, sliced ripe mango + drizzled with refreshing pineapple-lime mayo. (Ten pieces.)
Red Riding Hood Roll $18.95
Ambling through the dark forest with innocence as her only weapon, she leaves the trodden path and encounters the blackest, hungriest of wolves. Our roll is reminiscent of this ancient folk tale: spicy tuna, shrimp tempura + cucumber ensconced in sushi rice + green soy paper, draped with pared scallop + strawberry medallions, topped with black tobiko + drizzled with red berry coulis. (Ten Pieces.)
The Frog Prince Roll $18.95
In one version, the princess flings the frog against a stone wall; in another, her kiss precipitates its transmogrification into prince; but what to do if your prince is actually a frog and not the other way around? The interior:salmon, mango + tempura crunch; the exterior:layered with avocado + crowned with spicy snow crab + tobiko salad.
The Snow Queen Roll $16.95
Benumbed & blue in the ice palace, Kay feels nothing, for his heart’s a lump of ice; only Gerda’s tears can warm his frozen heart. Our roll evokes childhood memories of grandmother’s tales. Shiitake, green apple, cukes & asparagus wrapped in seaweed & rice, draped with young coconut meat, drizzled with pineapple mayo, garnished with coconut flakes. (8 pieces)
The Rumpelstiltskin Roll $18.95
Three times, he spun straw into gold, then awaited his prize. Under a coverlet of dark branches, round a smoky fire he danced a jig. “Today I brew, tomorrow I bake; then the Prince child I will take; for no one knows my little game: that Rumpelstiltskin is my name!”Inside: wok-roasted balsamic-glazed shiitake,yellowtail, asparagus tempura + green apple. Outside: fresh tuna, drizzled with wasabi mayo; topped with spring onion confetti; crowned with crispy yu mein noodles.
You know, I figured fairy tale sushi would draw more on Japanese tales than European ones. Oh well, maybe that would be the case in Japan but not in the U.S.
ReplyDeleteProps to Thelonius Monkfish menu writer for clearly doing some research.
Haha that would make sense wouldn't it...I think those specialty rolls are pretty Americanized and not very authentic anyway!
DeleteSo, what's in the BatB roll that makes it so beastly?
ReplyDeleteI have no idea! I even tried to look up things like how sushi rolls get their names...I feel like that one was probably just a case of, they needed a name for that roll and decided to give it something that the public would find appealing. Or maybe the cream cheese is a nice contrast to the fish and that's the "beauty/beast" dynamic??

ReplyDeletePeptide Therapeutics Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2021-2026“, The global Peptide Therapeutics Market reached a value of US$ XX Billion in 2020. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to grow at a CAGR of XX% during 2021-2026. Peptides are selective signaling molecules that bind to specific cell surface receptors, such as G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) or ion channels, and trigger intracellular effects. They are extensively utilized in the pharmaceutical industry to design regenerative therapeutics that target a wide range of cells and influence their responses. Peptide therapeutics are less toxic, well-tolerated, and relatively safer than other treatment options. As a result, they are gaining traction in clinical practices for managing cancer, infectious diseases, metabolic disorders, injuries, etc.
