California rolls are just one type of sushi, very Americanized. They have avocado (that's the "California" part), cucumber, and cooked crab meat wrapped in rice and seaweed. There are lots of other kinds of sushi that do NOT have raw fish, by the way, such as spider rolls, crispy rolls, etc. Sashimi is the slabs of plain raw fish. I think sashimi is very delicious, but it's not for everyone.
The California roll is a maki-zushi (roll), a kind of sushi, containing cucumber, imitation crab stick, and avocado. Sometimes crab salad is substituted for the crab stick, and often the outer layer of rice (in an inside-out roll) is sprinkled with toasted sesame seeds or tobiko.
In Japanese cuisine, sushi (寿司, 鮨, 鮓, sushi?) is vinegared rice, usually topped with other ingredients including fish (cooked or uncooked) and vegetables. Outside of Japan, sushi is sometimes misunderstood to mean the raw fish by itself, or even any fresh raw-seafood dishes.[1] In Japan, sliced raw fish alone is called sashimi and is distinct from sushi, as sashimi is the raw fish component, not the rice component. The word sushi itself comes from an outdated grammatical form of a word that is no longer used in other contexts; literally, sushi means "it's sour."
There are various types of sushi: sushi served rolled inside nori (dried and pressed layer sheets of seaweed or alga) called makizushi (巻き) or rolls; sushi made with toppings laid with hand-formed clumps of rice called nigirizushi (にぎり); toppings stuffed into a small pouch of fried tofu called inarizushi; and toppings served scattered over a bowl of sushi rice called chirashi-zushi (ちらし).
Sushi is made with salmon, while California rolls are made of rice and avocado an imitation crab meat, or chicken.
California roll is sushi. It is the type it has different ingredients than another sushi. There are many varieties.
Nothing. Sushi refer to the way the RICE is prepared. Not the raw fish, which is called Sashimi.
