    As a Sushi Chef my self for over 12 yrs, I can say that He is really adventurous and very bold in making some decisions to serve "almost" going bad fish. But turned out it is a brilliant one! Japanese people are very creative and smart. One of my teacher is Japanese Chef too! I learned a lot from him, not just about sushi and fish but also the basic foundation on how you become a discipline person and apply it to your job and enjoy it!!!

    Confused, as a matter sushi chef he didn't know about aging fish beforehand? Wasnt that what sushi chefs used to do before modern refrigeration?

      @silverspoon2690 Před 5 lety +3

      I think before refrigeration they used salt . What he's doing here is different.

    • @paulli7696
      @paulli7696 Před 5 lety +1

      so salt preservation is different than cold temp aging he is doing.

    • @FutureInterest
      @FutureInterest Před 5 lety +5

      @Rafal Omnom He's using salt but not enough to pickle it or truly preserve it. The amount of salt he's using simply slows down the rotting process. It's a delicate balance... and very unique.

      Earlier generation sushi used lactic acid as a means to ferment the the fish for several months before ready to eat. Other types of sushi often deploy enough sugar and salt to last for the day, but it was never meant to survive long term like that without some sort of cooler. If salted any longer, he would've gotten Chinese style salted fish, where everything is just completely dried up.

      Aging or Carchuterie is a "cooking method". Available in many cultures and traditions. This method has been lost the last 50 years due to American exportation of rubbish fast food culture as with many rubbish American exports. The decline of aging correspondence to the decline of many world's culinary. It has seen a revival of late through aged beef in America. I am experimenting with different kinds of meat now. Aging process does not necessarily involved salt, though it is a safer option as it kills off most bacterias likewise the same bacteria that breaks down the enzymes in the aging process. Sodium nitrate and potassium nitrate are popular additives to use in replace of salt. For obvious reasons, it doesn't make the aged food salty. I would love to work with this guy as my aging process involves only meat and I have not really thought of aging fish, the reason for that is aging process is usually done to soften the meat and intensify the flavours, something I didn't necessarily apply to seafood. But you keep learning something new each day. Thank you Channel News Asia for featuring that. Sometimes you do get good programs from CNA despite it being a propaganda channel of Singapore Government. LOL!

    In the era of fast prototyping and intense competition, it took him an awful long time to find his product differentiation. He is an engineer (chef) running a business, and not a businessman who is also a chef.

      Jeff compared to aged pork, aged fish(even if it stinks) does not seem to carry a lot of risk, unless the preparation itself is contaminated

    • @jeff8253
      @jeff8253 Před 5 lety

      well people dont normally eat pork or fish raw. So when eating raw food its quite essential to keep it fresh, but aged raw fish seems pretty risky@@gokiburi-chan4255

    This style is called Edomae sushi.
    The typical way most North American eat sushi is Fuji style.

      Edomae style sushi involved preserving the fish. He is aging it, there's a subtle difference

    *Quote: "The process of ageing removes all the unpleasant elements of rotting". What twisted logic is that? If you don't let it rot, then you don't have to undertake the process of ageing. You need fresh fish to make sushi. Now you just let it rot! The Japanese have the weirdest way of eating fish! First raw and now rotten! What next?*
