About Volcano roll
The Volcano Roll is a type of sushi roll characterized by a spicy, creamy topping that often resembles lava, hence the name. Originating from Japanese cuisine, it is a fusion-style creation popular in Western sushi restaurants. Typically, the base of the roll includes seasoned sushi rice, nori (seaweed), imitation crab, cucumber, and avocado, with the topping typically consisting of cooked seafood such as scallops or shrimp mixed with spicy mayo and sometimes masago (capelin roe). Nutritionally, the Volcano Roll provides carbohydrates from rice, proteins from seafood, and healthy fats from avocado. However, its creamy topping can be caloric due to mayonnaise and added sugars.
Health Benefits
- Rich in omega-3 fatty acids from seafood, promoting heart health.
- Contains vitamin C from vegetables like cucumber, supporting immune function.
- Offers iodine from seaweed (nori), helping thyroid function.
Dietary Considerations
Selection and Storage
Store leftover Volcano Rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 24 hours to maintain freshness and prevent spoilage.

Can I eat Volcano Roll on a keto diet?
Volcano Roll is typically not keto-friendly due to the presence of white rice, which is high in carbohydrates. A single serving can contain 25-30 grams of carbs, making it unsuitable for a strict keto diet unless modified with low-carb rice alternatives.
Are there any health concerns with eating Volcano Roll?
Volcano Roll can be high in sodium, particularly due to sauces like spicy mayo and soy sauce. Additionally, deep-fried toppings can add extra calories and unhealthy fats. Moderation is advised, especially for people watching their salt intake or trying to avoid excess calories.
What is the recommended portion size for Volcano Roll?
A typical serving of Volcano Roll is 6-8 pieces, which generally amounts to 300-400 calories. Consider limiting portion size if consumed with other sushi rolls or dishes to keep overall calorie intake balanced.
How does Volcano Roll compare to other sushi rolls?
Volcano Roll tends to be richer and higher in calories compared to simpler sushi rolls, like a California roll, due to its creamy sauces and fried toppings. Opt for fresh rolls with lean fillings if you prefer a lighter option.
