      Most of the American sushi restaurants are run by Korean. The only thing Japanese about that California roll is it's sold in a Japanese restaurants (run by Korean.) And I'm Korean American and I don't go to Japanese restaurants and order those rolls. I'd put my money on what's worth my $, raw fish and rice.

      I completely agree with you about the elderly chef. He seems like a great and kind person.
      However. When half the people don’t like something and you work in a professional kitchen then I think the recipe needs to be reevaluated and tested/improved.

    I think his scoring is the only accurate scoring i've seen on TH-cam. A 5/10 or 6/10 means that it's normal (depending on if you use 0 as a starting point on your scoring system), You won't feel disgusted nor overjoyed, that's how it should be. a 7 or 8 out of 10, means that something is good or very good, while a 9/10 means it's almost perfect.

      I think there are two main schools of thought on rating things. Personally, I think a score below 50% means that I would have preferred not to have the experience at all. However, I find most foods I eat to be at least somewhat rewarding, so my average rating is around 70%. For something to be below 50% I'd have to actually dislike it.

    • @cokecan6169

    4:45 Not related to the video itself, but rather the question the sushi chef asked, wasabi was paired with sushi back when refrigeration did not exist. Since you're consuming raw fish, the longer the fish is outside, the more bacteria you will find on it, hence the higher the chance of ruining your stomach. Wasabi was a plant whose effect was to kill bacteria, hence making the raw fish last longer.

      I feel that's because outside of some of the wildest combos mentioned by the chef too, american-japanese food while non-traditional at the very least still abides to some basic rules of ingredient combinations that still work, at least in the context of the recipes used(note the sweetness thing he mentioned and the different usage of soy sauce)
      Whilst with italian-american foods, the combinations are more often wrong or the plates served as "actual italian/of italian descent" rather than their own thing as is instead the case with american sushi, whilst tye actual supposed "real Italian" recipes tend to often be mere pale imitations that just don't make the cut.
      That said there are some recipes from italian-american cuisine that actually would work well in italy too, with some small adjustments, i.e. in the meatball size or the pasta format chosen, meatball pasta would have no issues working in italy, and there's also other recipes too that would work in italy but that ironically aren't very popular in the us, where the us tends to prefer flavor that are generally looked down upon or outright seen as insane in italy(the pineapple on pizza thing for example, the problem there isn't pineapple on umami dough, the problem is fruit with cooked tomato sauce and cheese, as i.e. melon(sweet) and prosciutto crudo(salty) is a common combo in italy, but fruit with acidic foods+a cheese is definitely a no-no over here.
      Same applies to many other dishes of course and how in italy we generally don't like garlic and butter anywhere near as much as americans do, seeing how much they put in of those(although that might just be because american garlic lacks in taste? Or so i heard anyway)
      Overall if presented with respect there's no issue with "hereditary cuisines" that don't follow the originals goals, it's just that said respect at least on a very barebone basic level seems to be present wih jp-american food, but not italo-american, at least, that's my perspective from the outside anyway.

    For me, the beauty of sushi is in its simplicity. The way I see it, traditional sushi highlights the flavor and texture of the most important ingredient - the fish, while American sushi actively tries to mask it. I always remember how buttery the toro and salmon was, the silkiness of uni, the bounce and brine of octopus, the sweetness and slime of ebi etc.. but you ask me how was the rainbow roll/dynamite roll/firetruck roll etc? I would probably have forgotten what it tasted like.

      OMG, YES! A lot of people think Japanese sushi is horrible because all they've tried is low-quality stale fish. Premium fish tends to melt like butter and it has a lot of flavor to it. Just that and a dollop of mayo is more than enough. American sushi, just like you said, tends to mask the fish because they use low-quality ingredients. Of course, I'm not dissing American sushi (I can certainly appreciate it once in a while), but sometimes simplicity is all you need.

      @@JCperfection maybe it depends on where you are, but sushi restaurants where I am generally offer that traditional style sushi with just the fish on a ball of rice with wasabi, in addition to the rolls. They'll also offer those bowls with nothing but slices of fish on a bed of radish, uh, slinkies might be a way to describe them? Of course, the fish better be good when you get that kind of sushi, I bet you can't find that kind of good stuff too far inland. The closer to the sea, the fresher the fish.

      "It's a little different" is the literal translation, but the actual meaning is closer to "it's incorrect". In Japan it's common to say "chotto chigau" to express dissatisfaction.
      Edit : Especially since the chef is doing the "batten" (crossing fingers).

      That is definitely the case and it's why people have been surprised at how come he is so impartial about it while comparing his reaction to italians reacting to Italian-american foods; if like the italians he wasn't considering thisbto be completely different kinds of food wih only a vague similarity to sushi, he would be much harsher.(And inversely if italian american food was presented more often as its own isolated thing, italians would be less harsh about it... With exceptions)

    Nigiri sushi, today's most popular type, was invented in Edo in the 18th century. Nori seaweed wrappers were added to sushi rolls in the 19th century. And many non-fish fillings like avocado and cucumber were later introduced. So while the original idea came from China, sushi was transformed into its modern form uniquely in Japan.

    • @ml-zy6qn
      @ml-zy6qn 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Tojo has changed his story over time. There is stronger support for the claim that the California roll originated in Los Angeles, California in the 1960s as an evolving product. One of Tojo’s early claims is that he called it the Tojo Roll and that his California customer base would order it by calling it a California roll, so he renamed it. His most recent version is that it was named it the C.A. roll because of the crab and avocado, and then renamed to California roll.
