9. If you wish to have the rice on the inside, place strips of cucumber, avocado and crab down as pictured (just above the 2 cm uncovered area). You will fold this away from you -- and form a tight roll -- after moistening both ends of the sushi roll. Tuck one end of the sushi roll inside and apply firm pressure without spilling the ingredients.
10. If this is the first time you are making sushi, stick to making it with the rice inside. Once you are comfortable with making a few rolls, then go ahead & put the rice on the outside (visit Sushi Encyclopedia). You will find other sushi recipes here. The California Roll was invented in Los Angeles around 1970. Some Japanese food has been westernized.
