Norimaki was firstly introduced as a dish in the 1750 publication "Ryori SanKaigo"[3][4], and in the 1787 publication "Shichigokobi", it was already introduced as one of the menus of sushi restaurants in Edo( as sushi that does not stain the hands[5].
In the early days of Norimaki, there were many other types of sushi rolled in other than seaweed, such as those rolled in thinly roasted eggs, or those rolled in shallow seaweed, wakame seaweed, or bamboo bark and so on.In Tokyo, there exisists Kampyo-maki（干瓢巻,dried gourd rolls） made in the Edo period.[6][7]
