Fish cake with swirl Emoji

Food

A bright pink and white cylindrical fish cake featuring a distinctive spiraling pattern. It represents a piece of narutomaki, a cured surimi product that is sliced thin and served as a garnish.

Usage Context

This emoji is most frequently used to talk about Japanese cuisine, particularly ramen. It often appears in food-related posts alongside 🍜 or 🍥 to denote a authentic meal. The swirl design is iconic enough that it is sometimes used to represent a dizzy feeling or a spiral shape.

History

Narutomaki has been a staple topping in Japanese noodle soups for centuries, named after the Naruto whirlpools near the city of Naruto. The emoji was added to the Unicode standard in 2010 to help populate the growing library of international food items available on mobile keyboards.
