Difference is not you, it is the passion of the teacher. Does your math teacher love math as much as this man loves sushi? Probably not. It is not the delivery, it is the emotion behind what is being taught! :)
You gotta admire the amount of prep work and expertise that go into preparing these sushi, not even taking into account the execution to serve the sushi yet...... really justifies the high price and explains the amount of people a sushi master can serve at once.
the end of the video is very inspiring for an aspiring sushi chef myself, when he says that even still he doesnt feel 100% competent with nigiri and is always looking for a way to do it better. thats awesome
It's amazing to think that we stand upon a mountain of knowledge. Just imagine all of the trial and error made while developing all of these techniques and recepies.
My girlfriend and I just ate at Nimblefish, where this video was filmed. I must say, it was truly a fantastic experience! This was, without a doubt, the best sushi you can get outside of Japan-- and not just "good enough for being 'not in Japan'", but literally on par with anywhere in Japan proper. If you go to Portland, and want sushi, Niblefish is a must go. We decided to go here after watching this video, and not even knowing that this existed in our city. A truly hidden gem!
He's showing you the whole process, including the kitchen prep. You might see that last step at the sushi bar. Not to take anything away from what a sushi chef does, but just imagine the amount of fish you'd have to process every morning to be able to serve like that all afternoon and evening!
This is such an awesome series. @32:30 The transition from individual nigiri to whole fish to final plate was quite satisfying after such an entertaining video. Well done, BA. 👍
Hardly true in Japan actually. In comparison to us in the US, Japanese sushi is cheaper for the same (or higher) quality simply because fish are plentier there whereas livestock is plentier for us. Likewise, I'd say their meat is more expensive simply bc you got less land there and land is a valuable resource.
I'm Bored you could honestly just cut a chunk off and put it on some rice and I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. People love to over complicate things and call it an art.

Most of the larger Swiss Army knives came with a fish descaler. They have them at every Walmart or big box store for about $3 or less too. It is a pretty common tool that is around in the US for longer than I have been alive.
A soup spoon is the quickest method I've ever tried. Scalers take more time and more precise controlling. With a spoon, you just get a good angle starting right under a row of scales and rake right across the fish. And I've never managed to damage the skin or meat with the spoon method.
Honestly, I feel like you being happy with what you present but also feeling like you can always do better is a good place to be. People that feel like they're perfect at what they do have already closed themselves off to the opportunities to be better and to learn! Gosh, you put the wasabi straight onto the fish though? I've always grown to know it as a side condiment and the first time a sushi chef gave me a piece like that, I nearly started crying haha. You can't play around with that stuff!
2:20 he said 'shizuoka'!!!😭it's the prefecture on Pacific Coast and where i was born and raised. i didn't expect my prefecture to be said😊 i really want everyone to come here when this corona pandemic is over!!! you can't regret once you come here(〃▽〃) sorry for my poor English
Stumbled upon this video and completely stopped everything else was doing. Incredibly well done all around, and if ever in Portland I'm definitely coming to try. Amazing.
I sometimes clean Snapper, Grouper, and Flounder at work..... and I was surprised at how many times I was like, oh I know how to do that. The Japanese just have a love of love for the fish.
Big difference between a continent and an island, unless you're talking Australia...not to mention we have a huge land border with Canada, and another good sized border with Mexico. Japan is surrounded by water and is an archipelago off the coast of Asia, if you will.
"Sushi is just raw fish on rice. There's nothing difficult about it. They just slap it on. It's such a scam how it costs so much" Me: shoves this video in their face.
Sushi doesn't even mean raw, that's the misconception I _hate_ (truly hate) most of all. Sashimi is what they're referring to. (Also do not make the mistake of thinking sushi _can't_ be raw because sashimi exists.)
I guess you just haven't tried well prepared sushi. I live in Japan and don't really like sushi so much, but when I tried some expensive and really well made sushi it totally caught me off guard. I had never had the chance to enjoy fish that way before. Changed my life. Keep looking guck. One day you will find out why people can go mad for it.
@@DirtyRobot I had sushi once before and then completely disqualified it from being in the list of things that can go in my tummy. What I had tasted like nothing, like bland shrimp and seaweeds, not particularly delicious. Your comment gave me second thoughts though, I might just go on a sushi quest. Thank you.
@@reelsalih I'm personally planning to travel to Japan to eat REAL sushi. I love sushi but I know that what I'm eating in my country is far from what it's supposed to be. And sadly there is no well known sushi chef here. But yeah I really think you should give it a try, but only this time go for the best. ^^
@@nexcentaurexx1653 the only sushi I've had was in Thailand and I was surprised I didn't like it because I seemed to love everything I've tried while there (except durian but that's only nature's fault), I hope I can travel to Japan too one day, their culture is quite intriguing, it would be a wonderful experience. I sincerely hope you can make your dreams into a reality!
How does it feel when you spend so much time learning how to identify and prepare many different fishes and yet people judge you first by how you make an omelette.
I guess it makes sense though. If a hypothetical bad sushi chef couldn't even make tamago, there's a good chance they couldn't prepare fish either, and obviously the fish nigiri are more expensive and difficult. Not to diss tamago, I learned how to make it myself recently and it definitely took a while to get the motion and cook time right.
They are 2 entirely different preparation though. Making Tamago requires you to fry and roll things on a pan, while most fish just doesn't need to be fried at all. And the way to cut them both are also very different. So I still don't understand the correlation.
If you don't have the patience and care to handle a damn egg omelet properly, how can I expect you to serve me something that could potentially make me very sick or kill me? Its a test.
@@RadenWA many who prepare Fugu prepare nothing but Fugu. Few who prepare other sashimi ever prepare Fugu. It is science vs art in comparison. The Fugu chef is an engineer. The sushi chef is a designer. The preparation of an omelette as a gauge to how any chef handles the simplest of ingredients shows both art and science. It is comparable to how the NFL uses the Combine to rate draft picks. The evaluate the broken down, individual, basics of the thing. Hiro Ono makes his apprentices prove they can wash rice in cold water for years before they get to touch a fish. What does that have to do with knife work? Nothing. It proves commitment, attention to detail, respect for the ingredients, and appreciation. As does making a simple omelette.

TBH I never knew there was a such thing as a Fish Scaler. My fish scaling just got tons easier.
Most of the larger Swiss Army knives came with a fish descaler. They have them at every Walmart or big box store for about $3 or less too. It is a pretty common tool that is around in the US for longer than I have been alive.
A soup spoon is the quickest method I've ever tried. Scalers take more time and more precise controlling. With a spoon, you just get a good angle starting right under a row of scales and rake right across the fish. And I've never managed to damage the skin or meat with the spoon method.
A wooden handle with bottle caps nailed to it serves that purpose well.
U don't live in asia do u?
what? how else would you scale a fish without a fish scaler tho??
Honestly, I feel like you being happy with what you present but also feeling like you can always do better is a good place to be. People that feel like they're perfect at what they do have already closed themselves off to the opportunities to be better and to learn!
Gosh, you put the wasabi straight onto the fish though? I've always grown to know it as a side condiment and the first time a sushi chef gave me a piece like that, I nearly started crying haha. You can't play around with that stuff!
2:20 he said 'shizuoka'!!!😭it's the prefecture on Pacific Coast and where i was born and raised. i didn't expect my prefecture to be said😊 i really want everyone to come here when this corona pandemic is over!!! you can't regret once you come here(〃▽〃) sorry for my poor English

静岡は悪くないと思う
あそこに行きたい😊
I got Asmr tingles from his voice and I rarely even get that from ASMR videos
Same
I literally don't even like fish and I just watched this whole video, beautiful.
Stumbled upon this video and completely stopped everything else was doing. Incredibly well done all around, and if ever in Portland I'm definitely coming to try. Amazing.
I sometimes clean Snapper, Grouper, and Flounder at work..... and I was surprised at how many times I was like, oh I know how to do that. The Japanese just have a love of love for the fish.
When you live on an island, seafood becomes part of your life and culture, you know?
technically us Americans live on an island aswell.
Big difference between a continent and an island, unless you're talking Australia...not to mention we have a huge land border with Canada, and another good sized border with Mexico. Japan is surrounded by water and is an archipelago off the coast of Asia, if you will.
i'm totally a Flounder in the kitchen, Snapper under the sheets
Ye boi I've been in seafood for a year and I know a lot of those cuts lol. Only on whole fillets tho, those tiny fish were insane.
"Sushi is just raw fish on rice. There's nothing difficult about it. They just slap it on. It's such a scam how it costs so much"
Me: shoves this video in their face.
WHO EVER SAID THAT WHAT
Being a sushi apprentice, i hate hearing that the most
Sushi doesn't even mean raw, that's the misconception I _hate_ (truly hate) most of all. Sashimi is what they're referring to.
(Also do not make the mistake of thinking sushi _can't_ be raw because sashimi exists.)
WHO DARES DISS SUSHI
Before people say that they should try making maki etc there are different types and for them to taste AND look good it takes more than just slapping
That thumbnail just screamed at me to click it lol.
Did they changed it? Because I remember it was really purple and colorful.
i dont know why but its always satisfying to watch wood-mode kitchen. His voice also helped me to focus on the video
Your voice is so soothing you should do ASMR videos lol
Fishy ASMR
Notmatt FSMR 😂
@All Abored yeah its like a mix of bored and relaxing but i kinda like it
@@egedi5893 and sexappeal.
These are so oddly statisfying.
It's incredible how I don't even like sushi but still enjoying this
Same!!
I guess you just haven't tried well prepared sushi.
I live in Japan and don't really like sushi so much, but when I tried some expensive and really well made sushi it totally caught me off guard.
I had never had the chance to enjoy fish that way before. Changed my life.
Keep looking guck. One day you will find out why people can go mad for it.
@@DirtyRobot I had sushi once before and then completely disqualified it from being in the list of things that can go in my tummy. What I had tasted like nothing, like bland shrimp and seaweeds, not particularly delicious. Your comment gave me second thoughts though, I might just go on a sushi quest.
Thank you.
@@reelsalih I'm personally planning to travel to Japan to eat REAL sushi. I love sushi but I know that what I'm eating in my country is far from what it's supposed to be. And sadly there is no well known sushi chef here.
But yeah I really think you should give it a try, but only this time go for the best. ^^
@@nexcentaurexx1653 the only sushi I've had was in Thailand and I was surprised I didn't like it because I seemed to love everything I've tried while there (except durian but that's only nature's fault), I hope I can travel to Japan too one day, their culture is quite intriguing, it would be a wonderful experience.
I sincerely hope you can make your dreams into a reality!

I clicked for the video, I stayed for his voice
I clicked for the food 🤤
Nobody asked who your crush is
😍 I love his voice it’s so soothing
How does it feel when you spend so much time learning how to identify and prepare many different fishes and yet people judge you first by how you make an omelette.
I guess it makes sense though. If a hypothetical bad sushi chef couldn't even make tamago, there's a good chance they couldn't prepare fish either, and obviously the fish nigiri are more expensive and difficult. Not to diss tamago, I learned how to make it myself recently and it definitely took a while to get the motion and cook time right.
They are 2 entirely different preparation though. Making Tamago requires you to fry and roll things on a pan, while most fish just doesn't need to be fried at all. And the way to cut them both are also very different. So I still don't understand the correlation.
If you don't have the patience and care to handle a damn egg omelet properly, how can I expect you to serve me something that could potentially make me very sick or kill me? Its a test.
Tamago = frying skill.
Sashimi = knife skill.
Someone who can make the perfect tamago can still kill you with a blowfish. Enjoy.
@@RadenWA many who prepare Fugu prepare nothing but Fugu. Few who prepare other sashimi ever prepare Fugu. It is science vs art in comparison. The Fugu chef is an engineer. The sushi chef is a designer. The preparation of an omelette as a gauge to how any chef handles the simplest of ingredients shows both art and science. It is comparable to how the NFL uses the Combine to rate draft picks. The evaluate the broken down, individual, basics of the thing. Hiro Ono makes his apprentices prove they can wash rice in cold water for years before they get to touch a fish. What does that have to do with knife work? Nothing. It proves commitment, attention to detail, respect for the ingredients, and appreciation. As does making a simple omelette.
We not gon talk about how this man made a GORGEOUS multi-layered omelet WITH CHOPSTICKS?
Asians do it every day lol.
we cook and eat most of the food with chopsticks, even whipping eggs😂 the difficult part is making omelet without breaking a single layer inside
Perfectly explained, beautifully prepared, perfectly filmed, and perfectly narrated.
That was very soothing and interesting at the same time, I admire your work and effort!
Got cold hands just by watching this video.
Right? His hands are so red.
really weird, I actually hate sushi and yet somehow watched the whole thing
So they are perfect to prepare sushi. Go try it
He's amazing! I'm Japanese but didn't know some of fish he introduced until now. Thank you.
Lawd that's a pretty man. I feel like I should be grossed out by the fish guts but this was just hypnotizing
