The demand for hot honey is everywhere, as fans of its spicy-sweet kick are drizzling it on everything from fried chicken to new sushi rolls, such as the Hot Honey Maple Smoked Salmon Roll. Created by Hissho Sushi and Mike's Hot Honey, this limited-time roll is coming to nearly 2,000 retail locations nationwide to provide a craveable experience. This collaboration represents the first time Mike's Hot Honey has worked with a sushi brand.
This spicy California roll is loaded with creamy avocado, cooling cucumber and spicy imitation crab, and topped with maple smoked salmon, Japanese BBQ sauce, sriracha, fried onions, green onions and sesame seeds—and it's all finished with a drizzle of Mike's Hot Honey Extra Hot.
