Can you guys give Morimoto his own series? You'd be really coooool if you did.....
Facts
can’t just give them a series. Most people don’t want the hassle of filming one even if it’s their own.
I agree. He needs his own.
They cant afford him , one of morimoto samas restaurants "Wasabi by Morimoto " is my favourite destination to impress girls on a first date mainly because one single piece of tuna sashimi is 35$. Taking that into mind , understand this man and his business worth is more than munchies can pay for his time
Just watch his battles in Iron Chef Japan. They'll more than suffice.
When he said, "fat..like me"
I felt that..
i almost felt it, but then i realized the man isnt even fat..
@@Chofrizzy yeah he looks fit
His english is so great now !
- He meant fat (for the average japanese man standards).
M
Morimoto: “so here’s how to prepare fish at home” *whips out flamethrower*
Well yeah, it's a typical American household utensil. Jk. I've seen it used to cook steaks so maybe it's not as uncommon among Americans. I've never seen anyone with a flamethrower in the UK, my home country, but then again, we don't really tend to eat steaks as much as Americans do so I don't know
Yeah I use flamethrower to toast bread it really works you can taste gas
@@j.t8529 best fuel for a great start of the day✔️
@@j.t8529 You're using the wrong part of the flame if you are tasting gas. Use the blue part of the flame, not the orange or yellow. That is commonly used to make the crust on Cremé Brûlée and also for searing any Sous Vide steaks, fish, etc.
You must not smoke loud
Morimoto's casual sushi flex on mere mortals
I used to deliver to his restaurant in Napa. He was there a couple times. Real genuine down-to-earth guy. While waiting for a signature for his product I would watch him prep food. His knife skills in person are amazing!
I want to believe you but can barely fathom that he does any prep (unless for a special crowd, or for teaching others) in any of his restaurants.
@@jonathannagel7427 lol...................Yah right.................The Master Chef prepping ??? lmao
Master Chef prepping..........lmao!! dream on .........you happen to see another asian guy and assuming they all look alike perhaps!!!!
I wish I was there eating those plates of exelance
Yeah, he may not prep so much nowadays but he certainly has done his “ fair share “ in his career.. and I’m guessing that in becoming a sushi chef is a whole art to learn in itself.. watching him so effortlessly do it tells me he has put in the work. Good job chef..
I remember watching him in iron chef back in high school. Damn he aged like a fine wine.
Same. I'm probably butchering these names, but I remember Morimoto the best, along with Chen Kenichi, Hiroyuki Sukai, and Ishinabe. Great show.
Same here man. One of my biggest inspirations in my love of food and how much work goes into making it look so good.
You must not be that old....
Iron Chef was my shit as a teenager. I remember the two battles Morimoto had with Bobby Flay.
Loved watching morimoto on iron chef. He def lost a lot of weight
I use to work at Morimoto NYC, he is hands down the best chef I have worked with. Not only is he actually courteous to his kitchen staff, but he is probably one of the funniest ppl to work with. What you see on tv is what you get in real life, he is as real a celebrity chef and animated comedian as you can get.
Is is rice vinegar used to prep the fish?
Did you and the jap guy kiss on the lips?
@@justicedemocrat9357wtf dude
I’m still not over the “Iron Chef” episode on Food Network when he went against Bobby Flay. One of the guest judges was the fat guy from The Sopranos and when he had Chef Morimoto’s food, he said he didn’t like raw fish and sushi. WTF?! What kind of a food judge is that sh*t? He thinks gourmet food is a foreign beer with a slice of pizza topped with anchovies.
The Iron Chef America was a joke. All these so called Iron Chefs are not really professional chefs. They are just TV cooking show hosts.
@@qidongxu7339 They had a couple talented guys there, but nowhere near on a par with the originals from _Iron Chef_ (Japan). It's like night and day. They tossed that rematch to Bobby because ... well, 'merica! _Iron Chef America_ was just awful.
@@TheVetusMores Yes, I have been watching the original Iron Chef in Japan. Their dishes showed a lot of cooking skills and very artistic. Then I started watching Iron Chef America, and I said "WTF". Especially this Bobby guy was really a joke.
u made me recalled masterchef uk, saying one of the participant's malaysian slow cook/stew-like chicken rendang not crispy enough. they just know nothing.
Iron Chef America was nothing compared to the original
I feel like they had to constantly ask this guy to explain what he is doing. A quiet master
Japanese apprentice of woodworking, pottery, cooking... 4 years of watching while making rice or sweeping up, years of absorption and observation.
i heard from people who has worked with morimoto, he's not really quiet lol
what
You can hear stories but you never really know if hes quiet or not. One thing you can't deny is that he is the master of his craft! He is also doing many different preparations at one time.
Actually he doing really good
Morimoto San: you just do like this, and then this, ok!
Viewers: we need all the deleted scenes for this HOW TO video.
If TH-cam actually starts putting ads on non-monetized videos by creators who never asked for them, that just goes to show how greedy this corporation can be. This thought is disgusting. TH-cam is essentially making free money off small channels and not paying them a single penny. Yes, these are small channels, but since there's so many of them, TH-cam will still make a huge profit off of this new policy. I don't care if TH-cam hates us now, it must be said by someone. I urge to our subscribers that we spread the message to all creators, and urge TH-cam to immediately repeal this new policy.

I remember watching him like a decade ago and he still looks so good!
yeah way longer than a decade ago
people from japan don’t age until they hit 65
He's dropped a lot of weight. Good for him.
He's dropped a lot of weight. Good for him.
You're Banana Muffins With Raspberry video looked good... was it about muffins?
This is one of the best sushi chefs in the entire world. Crazy. He seems like a genuinely great dude.
Don't forget about Chef Masa and Chef Jiro!
It's a bit of a stretch to call him one of the best sushi chefs in the world.
@@justicedemocrat9357 Not really. There aren't many sushi chefs that are as good as him. He's not the best - But he's absolutely one of the best.
I made the acquaintance of an old japanese sushi chef working at a sushi bar as the man preparer. I would go there multiple times a week and he would give me free things to try, we would talk, he was a very nice man. sadly I don't live in the area anymore or I would still be a regular! sushi chefs in my small sample size seem to be personable
Slow down bro I just picked up my knife and you're done
wow
Your probably half sloth
Best comment 🤣🤣🤣
@@parklez3250 hahaha I imagine the one from zootopia hahahaha so slow haha
Step 1: obtain decades of samurai worthy knife skills...
Step 2: don't try this without a Morimoto knife set.
Step 3. Chef morimoto is good but let's be real he is overrated from his iron chef days🖨️
3. Have more confidence in your cooking skills and KNOW that you too can do this. If not something similar...them BAM!!! Sushi all in yo mouth.
@@macariosakayy and who are you
@@macariosakayy yeah you could say he is so overrated he got multiple restaurants around the world, unlike you a bonafide keyboard warrior right?
Amazing skill
Watching Morimoto work is always like watching a magician. Incredible work that's almost beyond comprehension.
Aww!! Hearing this name brings back so many memories. Marathons of watching Iron Chef Japan when I was kid, memorized by this grandiose tournament around food. It was awe-inspiring. Much love, Chef Morimoto!! From North Carolina 💙✊🏼🔥.
Same. I remember those OG late-night food network marathons. Brings back many good memories. From North Carolina as well!
My husband works in the fish processing industry and we are lucky to get the freshest tuna in large pieces like that, our sushi is not that good, love this video. Inspired me to try again
Anyone else appreciate how dedicated these sushi guys are to their profession? It’s an art to them.
The way he cleans both the knife and the board after each piece of fish he handles... *chef kiss*
I remember watching him on the original iron chef(not that weird American adaptation ). He always seemed so intimidating and had a very commanding presence. Its great to see him just having fun doing what he loves.
I love Morimoto since watching him debut on Japanese iron chef 20+ years ago. When he was iron chef America you can tell he was the only trained chef, the others like Bobby was just a tv personality that can cook.
Easily my favorite Iron Chef. Yes he needs his own series.
I remember watching him on Iron Chef America as a kid. Glad to see he’s still killing it.
Wow, his knife work and cleanliness. This guy is the real deal.
Professional chef: This is how you do this.
Munchies: Jump cuts with no timing or explanation.
Munchies, man. Jump cutting right when he's about to make a nigiri cut that I actually want to see.
They probably didn't understand his accent and thought the viewer won't either and did him like that
@staticmaneuver Thanks for mentioning the lousy camerawork. Was scrolling thru comments to see if anyone felt the way I do.
He will always be my favorite Iron Chef
His presentation is so simple and it really shows off the skill of his work. I used to work for a high end Japanese restaurant where we put tons of effort into presentation and the dishes were gorgeously presented. But I think in hindsight it was to fool the customers a little as the elaborate presentation covered up that the cut of the fish, or the quality of the fish wasn't at the same level as here. Not that we were bad by any means, but I worked the itaba (sashimi) station and I wouldn't put myself in the same room as Morimoto.
Always great to see Morimoto still has his sense of humor and showmanship. It took him decades to learn his craft and perform it like the master he is.
One of my favorite chefs for a good reason; I love watching him work ❤️ wonderful and efficient always.
I didn't understand 1 minute of this, but I appreciated every second 🤩👍😎
no telling how much that man is worth and you can tell he still works at his restaurants. look at the speed he works at. love this guy.
Sushi platings are always the most visually aesthetic and visually satifying. It looks almost like a garden or a table top decor but it's edible.
I love chef Morimoto! He makes it look so simple, he’s just that good. One of the highlights of our Disney trip was actually getting to see him at Disney springs completely by surprise! ❤️ Congratulations on the weight-loss also, you look super healthy. I know that can be hard especially working around food. 🙂
Raise your hand if you remember Chef Morimoto from the original Iron Chef Japan. I had the opportunity to dine at Morimoto NYC a couple Decembers ago, and it was like a dream come true. Best hamache I've ever had. Respect, Chef Morimoto! Thank you for gracing us mere mortals with your gift.
the fact that a chef teaches us his methods based on years of practice with slight humor is priceless
Your presentation is amazing!! Just WoW!!
I used to watch this guy on the og Iron Chef. He and Emeril are a huge reason I became a cook in the restaurant industry.
Every sushi chef is the chillest dude
Super knowledgeable but also super down to earth-quality content
None of this actually looks doable but very cool watching a master chef who personally spent years just mastering the rice in a real sushi kitchen encouraging ppl to not be scared of fish at home
I had the opportunity to visit his restaurant in Boca Raton, FL. in 2014. What delicious and exquisite sushi. Mouth watering.
You've made it in life when you are so passionate in what you do for a living live this guy
I never get tired of watching his masterful hands at work. The amount of experience and skill in those hands is mind bending. Love this.
"Fat. Like me." *showing his belly* 😂 He is awesome!
I used to work in one of his restaurants. The presentation on the place's sushi platters looked just like this. Brings back memories.
did you met him personally?
@@Ellyasveil I met him. He would come into the restaurant every couple of months when the place first opened to check on it. He's a fun guy in person.
I really enjoy his cooking methods and presentation. Keep up the amazing work everyone. More videos like this.☺️
Used to watch Iron Chef every chance I get. Morimoto and Iron Chef Chen were my favorites. I think Morimoto was consider "Neo Japanese" vs the original older traditional Japanese Chef he replaced. Both he and Chen made some masterpieces. He sure aged a lot since then.
I don’t care for sushi all that much. But I was endlessly fascinated by Morimoto’s skill and technique. The precision, aggression, and calmness was phenomenally oddly satisfying. He makes art out of food.
girl what aggression? hes calm as a cucumber
I watched this with such intensity..this guy..so much skill and expertise in one 8 minute video. Just mesmerizing to watch. So beautiful. Would eat all of that in a second!
Chef Morimoto is a pleasure to watch, plus he does some things I've never seen elsewhere.
His smooth and precise cuts and moves seem so easy, yet i‘d probably loose a finger.
Maybe even two.
but would you dieeee
I loved watching him on tv. I wonder if a “trained sushi chef” saw this and what they thought. I think chef Morimoto is a genius.
I have loved Chef Morimoto since he used to be on the old Iron Chef Japan, that dude makes amazing food. He is such a fish master and his knife skills are incredible; this makes me want to try making my own sushi but I know it would take me 10 times longer and look a tenth as good, lol. That marinated cut of tuna looks incredible omg!
Always enjoyed watching Iron Chef Morimoto!
I know that sushi looks easy to make but, the preparation is not easy and it takes years to perfect the skill. I like watching Chef Morimoto prepare and cook food and he has been cooking for several decades.
Amazing 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I need to learn these techniques from such a great sushi chef like you ! Every step is pure art and a culinary masterpiece! Thank you for your vibrant look to your dishes,it’s just amazing 🙏🙏❤️
True master! Made it look simple. And explained everything well.
Instructions unclear, won the great ninja war and became a hokage
Legend.
He makes it look so simple, quick, and easy… Mark of a true master.
Watched this over a hundred times already! Iron Chef Morimoto is a Legend!
I literally forgot that he was making sushi. Too fascinating, too flowing and so fast. Wow.
Wow, Chef Morimoto is looking really healthy! He’s lost a lot of weight! Congrats chef! ☮️🖖🏽
Superchef, it’s beautiful work! Thank you 🙏
Chef Morimoto, you make it look so easy. It took me forever to get most of this done. But, you are inspirational you are fun to watch and defintely opened up my apetite for some sushi. Well done!
I love that they teach you how to make sushi without teaching you how to make sushi, nobody can replicate that just by watching once this video
WHen he was on iron chef, dude was tough as nails! But in reality, dude is probably the nicest guy you'll meet.
Beautifully done!
I love that he said "im going to try to show uou how to make sushi" like he knows you are going ro fuck it up and best he can so is try to teach you
Perfect! Love it. Thank you.
Great episode! What is the brand/make of chef Morimoto’s blow torch? That’s high output and I want it!
looks like an iwatani pro
i dont understand why would people put thumbs down on this…🤦🏽
Well, those thumbs-down are totally understandable. Because, if this is supposed to be an instructional type of video as the title suggests, this video is a total failure. Other than that, it's fun to watch this guy just cooking along.
His knife skills and preparation are so masterful, you can see all the years of experience and refinement in every move! But he sure spreads his prep put all over the station, would be tough to work next to him 😆
that's why he is the chef lol
I love him. He's just too adorable and amazing!
He made this entire process seem effortless. 🍱🙌🏾 if only I had 20 years to become that good😭
Morimoto seemed so much more stressed when he was in Japan. It's like he is a different person here in NY.
of course this comes up at midnight for my recommendations...ill just be over here making toast. sigh...
the speed and precision is unreal
Awe, he's so cool! He needs his own show. I'd definitely watch him cook all the time. 🤗💗
that’s it. i’m moving to japan to become a sushi master.
8 years of sweeping floors and making rice before you get anywhere near a knife.
he made the knife work look easy
doing that takes years and years of training, I tried to do this at home and it looks like a 3 year old could’ve done a better job...fail sauce
A little practice and sharp blade will go a long way
Possibly one of the greatest chef to ever walk this earth. I been to his restaurant, had a chance to meet him. A great gentleman, brilliant artist and visionary.
Very educational video. Thank you
My ONLY concern and worry and what I'd really like/love to learn is how to source and SELECT the fish to be considered safe and 'Sushi/Sashimi' grade
Find yourself a Fishmonger and make friends with them.
@@Megaman915 I'm in Malaysia, different types of species of fish, different water temperatures and some boats NOT equip with flash freezing capabilities like in Japan
@@crazykenyan25 yeah, thats a lot more iffy then. You do not want to attempt this with bad fish.
@@Megaman915 also don't want to simply TRY this with Tropical Water fishes in warm waters which are just the nice temperature for parasites
sushi grade can mean frozen very cold fast, even then you wouldn't be sure it's safe unless you did it yourself
Why do you have to cure salmon in vinegar and sault and other fishes just strqight up raw?
Different ways to prepare them
Such knowledge and skill, much respect!
Absolutely Fantastic.
Wow I can't believe how much weight he's lost since Iron Chef!He's so thin. Hope he is doing well.😬
Post credits he answered that his wife's turned him into a vegetarian at home 😂
It always bothered me how food network always dubbed his voice over with another, maybe his English has improved since then but at most I felt all he needed was subtitles here and there. Even then he speaks English just fine.
They commented on this once, and Morimoto said that he thinks his English is not very good, so he requested someone to dub his lines. Though I do agree, subtitles would be fine.
@@sd80mac that's understandable, I failed to think of it from his pov.
Always enjoy Morimoto-san!
You make it look so easy, Thank You
"How to"
**Cuts the video together to be faster and unusable as a tutorial**
How is he suddenly skinny? Iron chef he was a big boy.
He answered after the credits:
"You're wife is a very good cook in the house?"
"Yes, but she doesn't give me any protein. I'm like a vegetarian in the house. I lost like 15 - 20 lbs"
"Do you like it?"
"No comment"
Excellent Job! Truly a master. My favorite Iron Chef ever.
Knife skills impeccable!! Wow!
Living in the middle of nowhere in the Midwest, and loving sushi...this is painful for me to watch.
I don't even like Sushi, but I'd eat it if it came from him. Lol
I used to watch Iron Chef Morimoto on the food network all the time! My all time favorite!
Thank you, Sir! Delicious!
"How To Prepare Fish for Sushi". Literately cuts out most shots of preparing sushi....
No? The whole start to end was him prepping
He was literally preparing the fish the whole time. It's not about preparing the sushi but there was still a bit of that at the end
You even said it in your own comment. First sentence u say "prepare fish" and then "preparing sushi"...lol
There's another video of him making the sushi
