The negitoro roll is a sushi-lover’s favourite — minced fatty tuna (toro) folded with finely chopped spring onion (negi), rolled in seasoned rice and crisp nori for a rich, melt-in-the-mouth bite. At Sushijiro Catering, our negitoro roll draws on the fish-handling standards of our omakase heritage, so the tuna stays fresh, clean and luxuriously soft from our central kitchen to your event.
What is a negitoro roll?
“Negitoro” combines negi (spring onion) and toro (the fatty belly of tuna). The tuna is scraped or minced to a smooth, almost creamy texture, then mixed with finely sliced spring onion that cuts the richness with a fresh, aromatic lift. Wrapped as a maki, it delivers the indulgence of toro in a tidy, shareable form — one of the most popular rolls we cater.
How we make our negitoro roll
Quality starts with the fish. We prepare each roll fresh, balancing the elements so neither overpowers the other:
- Fresh fatty tuna, minced to a smooth, spoonable texture
- Finely chopped spring onion for fragrance and bite
- Freshly cooked, vinegar-seasoned sushi rice
- Crisp nori, rolled and cut just before serving
- Served with soy, wasabi and pickled ginger
How we serve the negitoro roll for catering
This roll shines as part of a fresh selection. We feature it on our sushi and sashimi platters, across our Japanese buffet line, and within premium bento sets for plated events. One roll typically yields 6–8 pieces; for a shared spread, plan 3–4 pieces per guest. Final platter sizes and counts are confirmed in your quote, and we deliver islandwide, including the CBD and Marina Bay.
What to pair with a negitoro roll
Because the negitoro roll is rich, it pairs well with cleaner, crunchier items: cucumber maki, a seaweed salad, or a crisp tempura assortment. Round things out with miso soup and chawanmushi for a complete set. For grazing-style events, it works beautifully at a canape and live station setup. Explore the full menu to build your spread.
