  • Legendary sushi chef Masa Takayama was the first Japanese chef to helm a restaurant that was awarded three Michelin stars in the US. Now, he's going to show you how he cooks at home by using one fish to make three dishes.
    This zero-waste approach is going to use every part of the fish-even the bones and head-and use a variety of techniques, and not just Japanese ones. You'll also find out why you shouldn't buy ponzu sauce from the store.

      Thats home cooking, the point of the exact ingredient is in this case to give heat and flavour. You can use whatever that can accomplish that. That's always a point with even more complicated recipes. You can experiment with already set recipes, but you should know what you are doing to the dish.

      Looking by the shape, seem like those knives are only for showing. Cheap knives kinda thing. Thats why he braves enough to chopped the egg with it on top of the metal grill. Hell no way he uses the knife he used to fillet the fish. Or sashimi knife.
