Philadelphia rolls at home

Philadelphia rolls have nothing to do with Japanese cuisine. The recipe was invented by an American chef in the 80s of the last century. He liked the combination of fish and cream cheese with bagels (baked goods similar to a donut), and he wanted to make something of his own. Philadelphia rolls quickly became popular. This dish got its name not from its place of birth, but from its ingredient - Philadelphia cheese.

How to cook Philadelphia rolls at home

Step 1

Philadelphia rolls at home

Prepare the rice. Pour water into a saucepan and add rice. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium. Cover the saucepan with a lid. Cook the rice for another 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit for 10 minutes.

Make the rice dressing. In a small saucepan or saucepan, combine the rice vinegar, sugar, and 1 teaspoon warm (not hot) water. Heat and stir until smooth.

Step 3

Assemble Philadelphia rolls at home using a step-by-step recipe. Take a mat and wrap it well in cling film. Place a sheet of nori on it with the shiny side down. Put rice on top and smooth it over the surface of the nori. Turn the nori over with the rice down and put the filling: cream cheese, cucumber, avocado. Roll the roll into a tight roll, and carefully spread the fish slices on top.

Philadelphia rolls at home - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can use short-grain brown rice or sushi rice substitutes like quinoa or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option, but traditional sushi rice works best for texture and stickiness.
Store leftover rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. For best freshness, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap to prevent drying out.
Absolutely! Replace the fish with veggies like bell peppers, carrots, or tofu for a delicious vegetarian version. The cream cheese and avocado still provide richness.
Use a very sharp knife, preferably dipped in water before each cut, to prevent sticking. Wipe the blade clean between slices for neat presentation.
Freezing is not recommended, as the texture of the rice, fish, and vegetables will degrade. For best quality, enjoy them fresh or refrigerated for a short time.
Ensure your nori, rice vinegar, and other ingredients are certified gluten-free. Avoid any soy sauce or imitation crab containing gluten unless labeled safe.
Try soy sauce, spicy mayo (mix mayo with sriracha), ponzu, or eel sauce. For a twist, serve with mango salsa or wasabi aioli.
Yes, but thaw it completely in the refrigerator first and pat it dry. For safety, use sushi-grade fish labeled for raw consumption.
Double or triple the recipe as needed. One roll typically yields 6–8 pieces, so plan for 1–2 rolls per person depending on appetites.
A flexible cutting board, parchment paper, or a clean kitchen towel can help roll tightly. Just wrap it in plastic to prevent sticking.
