Ya man the Iron Chef teaching you how to cook rice on a stove top specifically because he knows that western households don't often have rice cookers, what a legend
Anglo-Saxon houses.
The rest of the world knows how to make rice from Latin America, Southern Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.
@@gonzoducks8 yes, but I think the person in the comment above meant that rice cookers aren't very common in other countries
They are the easiest things to use though, absolute necessity. But then again I can't imagine not having rice with most meals
@@romanrecto yeah here in Brazil we eat rice every day but we cook them in a pot, I think rice cookers aren't very popular here because it makes the rice be sticky, and we don't like sticky rice
Unless your asian American. It wasn’t until high school i found out you could cook rice in a pot bc everyone in my family and all my asian friends had rice cookers
I've never heard of this man before.
....I instantly love him.
How? No offense but how? Check him out, legendary chef.
He’s like the opposite of Gordon Ramsey. He is all about fun, trying new things, and comes from a cuisine on the literal opposite side of the world from Gordon.
@@nickniehaus1763 - Because he isn't shown on British media & cooking is not subject I'm all that knowledgeable about?
@@nickniehaus1763 idk what you on about mate
This man is a treasure to be sure.
"No one has it good in the beginning, try first."
he is truly an incredible teacher
Repent to Jesus Christ
“Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”

@@seekhimwithallyourheartand3358 what
I came to comment this too! That is so good!
You can't succeed without failing first
Thank you Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto your battles in the iron chef kitchen are legendary.
This guy is a legend folks.
Rooster Brand u corny
GoT
yes
@@zulubeatz817 , una n
Yes he is. I had the pleasure of cooking with him at the tofu festival in 07-08? In LA. Awesome chef!
Worked at one of his restaurants years ago and got to meet him several times. Really humble guy and watching him make sushi in person is like poetry in motion
I'll review his restaurant someday =)
@Justina Thornley This video totally changed how I viewed him. I haven't watched tv in like 10 years other than streaming so I haven't seen anything from him in a long time. I just remember watching him hyper focused in those food network shows. He was nothing like this in those shows. And then his really loose attitude about sushi was such a surprise.
@@robertm4050 Check him out on binging with babish, really laid back and doesn't take himself too seriously. Pretty refreshing.
@@victory01 I really dislike Babish. I generally like food shows, but he just really gets on my nerves and seems like a douche. I even used to really like David Rosengarten from the really early days of the Food Network. And he was a really pretentious douche bag.
Lucky you!
For anyone looking for the recipe/ratios:
Equal parts washed (clear) rice to water
Bring to boil, reduce to low for 15, turn off and steam for another 10
Seasoned vinegar: 4 parts rice wine vinegar, 2 parts sugar, 1 part salt, small strip kombu
Vinegar amount: 10%. So for 3 cups of uncooked rice, it's .3 cups vinegar
Mix until coated, but don't overmix
Enjoy!
So I would use one cup vinegar 1/2 cup sugar and 1/4 cup salt?
@@devonfuginowskinstien7500 yep!
When I bring my rice to boil, should it be on high heat or medium heat?
@@kenzidarwish9761 doesn't matter the speed (temperature) you get it to boil. Personally I just do it on high.
when mixing together the vinegar, sugar, and salt, do we need to turn on any heat?
How to make an insanely difficult and delicate process look deceptively easy, by the legendary Masaharu Morimoto. I love this man.
yeah, it's also impressive how clean he works. There is not a single rice corn flailing on his work place.
This man is 65
He looks and acts a decade younger than he is
I'm 18 and he acts younger than me
@@rebecaft im an sperm and he acts younger than me.
@Francilli FT AHAHHAHAHA!
@@sheikhali5664 I'm nothing and he acts younger than me
@@sheikhali5664 Haha
His book "Mastering the Art of Japanese Home Cooking" changed my life. I recommend it to everyone who cooks. Every time I go to 'Morimoto' in Philadelphia I bring it with me in hopes that I can get him to sign it.
Wait Philadelphia??
@@EliteAaron Yeah, Philadelphia spreadable cheese is delicious. If that’s what he is talking about ?
@@w0lf149 He was saying that the chef is in Philadelphia. I'm in Philadelphia too and I didn't know. I plan to go to his restaurant now.
@@EliteAaron oh right. I’m talking about the product “Philadelphia spreadable cheese”. It’s over here in Australia.
@@w0lf149 truly a man who lives up to his name.
I’m a broke college student & its my first time living alone. I don’t really enjoy cooking that much specially if it takes a lot of time. & really really LOVE sushi sm but I can’t afford having takeouts everyday so i decided to make it myself. It was super easy it didn’t take me that long maybe around 30mins & it taste SOOO GOOD i felt so proud of myself. Thank u so much dude now its my go-to lunch
I feel the same way about Vietnamese salad rolls 🤩
How did you afford sushi-tier fish as a broke college student ?
you don't have to use top shelf to make something that you like. it certainly doesn't have to be raw@@greyngreyer5
A very calm low-key explanation for the absolute beginner, where the variables are simplified and curated.
With this approach it seems as easy to prepare sushi rolls as making a sandwich :D
Funny that you said it and... Yup! He made it simple and easy (you just need the patience of waiting, since you cant jump cut real life) and I was shocked at how simple and easy it was! Granted, mine turned out a mess, but I got the gist. 🤣
I love how he doesnt overcomplicate things.
EXACTLY this! Also just his upbeat attitude. It makes him SUCH a more pleasant person to watch and learn from since he's not one of those stuck-up obnoxious types of people who make sushi, who act like you have to be SUPER serious about it the whole time. Cooking should be FUN, not work lol
When i first saw him on Iron Chef, he couldn’t speak Any English. Not a word
Look at him now!!
After 15 minutes shut down the water hee
Yep!
same for me like 21 years ago one of the first reality competition cooking show he was my fav ..now he's a little thiner and grayer ...and his english is great ...
Wont He do it
The omg was so cute
I love how he says "you don't have to be good at it at first "🥺 what a sweet man
I don't think I could love a video more than this. A joyous, absolute legend making the best food on the planet.
Love Morimoto. Watched Iron Chef because of him. Such a wholesome, passionate, great soul. I'd really like to watch him cook with Masa. They are my favourite Japanese chefs. Thanks Munchies for bringing him here.
Working with him is a whole other demon. The time I spent working with him at Momosan ramen and sake bar in seattle was not great.
What happened?
he is the opposite in the work place.🖨
dude he had the most epic entrance in that show. I bet the other chefs competing against him were intimidated. I like how there was this "traditional" vs "modern" Japanese food battle whenever he competed.
@@ETCswawRET Aren't most professional chefs the same? They are very strict and meticulous about the foods.
Chef Morimoto is such a wholesome chef. But also very straightforward when it comes to cooking.
dawg u aint got no clue how he is in the workplace.
Him: calculating the water level with how much cup of rice he takes.
Me: pointing finger's first knuckle......
Man I can remember when I was little watching Chef Morimoto on Iron Chef, he was one of the driving forces for me to become a amateur chef. Seeing him do this reminded me of how big of a legend he is but also how simple and down to earth he is. Definitely gonna try this now.
oh my... I just LOVE chef Morimoto! He is by far one of the best cooks of our time. Great personality, amazingly talented and hard working! Always so gentle and respectful with food.
I knew he is a living legent but I didnt know he is this friendly and funny!
I think that over the years, he may have gotten more comfortable in front of a camera? When he was younger, he was so serious. And he got mad at Bobby Flay for climbing onto his counter on the original “Iron Chef.” So maybe, Chef Morimoto’s learned to loosen up over the years since then.
Just don't mess up his nigiri. He not so nice then!
He is always this way.... Obviously not on Iron Chef cause they are all in character... But generally he is cool
@@ElizaHamilton1780 bobby flay is so gross. I wouldn't want his ass climbing on my table either!
@@ElizaHamilton1780 Nah, he was always chill. I remember one episode he used Coca-Cola in a dish, and the Japanese food critics flipped out, lol.
There is no way on earth you can tell me that he isn't the cutest Chef ever.
@Engine omar Ikr he’s actually so calm he helps people’s restaurants in a calm way. 👍👍
@Engine omar But he swears so much. To an Asian like me who came from a strict family that forbid swearing, it really seems intimidating.
@@miyako1909 Yeah i think they were ironic, Gorden Ramsey has the most pissed of attitude a chef can have.
This was the overall best presentation on how to cook Sushi that I have ever seen, hands down.
Morimoto was one of my favorite chefs growing up on the Japanese version of Iron Chef, then he came to Iron Chef America and continued to blow us away. This man is an all around legend and I am so glad to come across this video
No one ever dared to challenge him on iron chef. He’s the last boss
Haha for reals
Some did. I think they try to give all the chefs somewhat equal air time, but I don’t remember anyone beating him.
They didn’t much bc he plays no games
He rarely ever lost if did lol
No one ever dared to challenge him? Until now kid. The new master is here :)
this man is a legend and my love of cooking japanese cuisine started with him. When I was around 12 years old (this was back in 2007), I'd watch late night Iron Chef Japan episodes of him cooking against other competitors ( which was later brought over to the U.S. as Iron Chef America). In my 11 years of home cooking, japanese food remains my #1 favorite cuisine to cook because i see it as an art.
I can't believe how well this worked. I tried and failed to make sushi once many many years ago. I tried again today using this video and nailed it, it tasted almost restaurant-grade. He explains the nuances of the techniques so well. Fantastic video!
0:47-0:51 Bless him lol, literally first time watching him and I want to adopt him as my Granddad he's awesome.
Literally been watching this dude since I was a kid and he just had aged so well 😋❤️🥰
I was just thinking the same thing
dude looks great especially since i remember him from damn near 20 years ago
You'll meet him someday. Remember me when you do :)
@@RockstarEater if I ever met him I'd cry tbh 😭😭😭😭😭
Glad I wasn't the only one over here thirsting for Daddy Morimoto
I literally named my cat after Morimoto. "Mori" for short. That's how much I love this guy!!
Same!
i named my cat Maury...
After Maury Povich.
😁😉 i just had salmon sashimi with a splash, light mist of citrus.
thank you Sempai.
What about your children?
@@_Wai_Wai_ maybe they don't have children??
@@_Wai_Wai_ His cat is his child!
I love his energy and the way he explains the process was so easy to understand
This man is my childhood. I grew up watching him all serious and cooking in a high pressure timed environment. Seeing him like this all relaxed, very animated in his gesticulations as he explains sushi techniques in English, it's so fun to see. I'm glad to see him on my recommended page.
The level of wholesomeness when he reminded everyone food and cooking is fun and enjoyable really is so touching.
"Little bigger than a lemon. Little smaller than a tennis ball."
😂😂
That's how I actually major everything comparing them to other stuff xD
One of my favorite chefs to listen to. So full of energy and so practical. Always loved chef morimoto
I loved watching him on Iron Chef. My chef friends introduced me to the show. He seems like a wholesome guy too, very sincere.
Chef Marimoto, I've been watching you on TV since I was in primary School. More than 10 years has passed already. Such a legend!
I met Morimoto-san once at a book signing at my local Japanese grocery store back in 2003ish. He was sooooo nice! I love this guy:)
I cannot actually put into words how much I love sushi. The taste, texture - everything about it. 👌😋
What a cool dude. I love watching people do things that they love and doing then well. It helps reduce anxiety around trying new things when you see a master just having fun with it and wanting to show off his craft.
The most simple and elaborate video i've ever seen on sushi making, absolutely incredible love Chef Morimoto!
Nothing but respect for MY favorite Iron Chef.
Anime protagonist’s grandpa be like:
Chef makes this difficult process look effortless with his skill, but I can't be bitter/jealous because he's so kind, enthusiastic, and encouraging. Love his words at the end; no one has it good at the beginning, try with friends and family, and make it fun ❤.
I love the fact that so many others, like myself, watched this man on TV growing up. He's definitely been a great inspiration to so many people!
This man is a legend. Watching him work is pure art.
God damn, this man is very loveable. He has the properties of a good teacher, funny, emphatic, gives knowledge with clear language and couraging.
Clear language? 🤣🤣🤣
@@hamzahamzaoglu620 yes, even though he has an accent, and his english is not perfect, he is much better at teaching than many english speaking snob professors from top universities. Teaching is a God-given talent, and this man has one!
Such a lovely man. He is a freakin cuisine legend, yet he's got a great, humble attitude, and teaches out of pure love ♥️
Great video!
I liked it when he hated Bobby Flay, that guy's a tool.
Morimoto is a legend, but that was just a culture clash... Bobby Flay is alright and his tiger shrimp tamales are delicious
Worked at one of Bobby Flay's restaurant yrs back gotta totally agree dude is a douche bag. Not because of how he was with employees but the way he treated and commented about guest.
I have a brother named Bobby! :)
The rivalry started when Bobby won their first battle and then climbed on the table and stood on the cutting board with his dirty shoes.
I hate that he talks so much shit about Gordon Ramsey but has pussied out of every head to head Gordon has tried to set up... the guy is a hack
Bro this was much needed, his charisma gives me the will to go on
Chef morimoto is just one of those things that get better with age. His English is REALLY good and it also looks like he slimmed down a lot. What a legend.
I just had to like this vid less than a minute in. His energy is contagious; he seems so loveable. Thank you chef :)
Can’t believe this man looks so well after so many years of watching him own Iron Chef. Props to you guys getting him on here!!!
I have been waiting for this episode since the beginning of time. Finally, the great one has come to Munchies!
OMG MORIMOTO!!! This video makes my heart so happy!! I'm 33 now, and grew up watching the original Iron Chef show from Japan with English subtitles when they had it on one of the food networks here in the USA. I didn't like the American version as much, felt like it was trying a bit too hard to be as good as the original, but still watched for Morimoto. Morimoto was always my favorite Iron Chef out of all of them, I always rooted for him if he was on. If a contestant went against a different Iron Chef then I would root for the contestant lol. I have always wondered what he was up to, he looks so good! He used to have a much bigger face from what I recall, he looks really healthy and a bit slimmer, I hope I can look that good at that age. Much love and thank you for showing us your technique! Now I know what I've been doing wrong lol.
Someone who is properly straight forward is so helpful, thank you so much !!
I grew up watching him and he was spearheaded more bubbly and friendly Iron Chefs. He makes this look so easy like making a grilled cheese sandwich.
My favorite Iron Chef. Much respect.
A super pro, teaching something very complex, using methods and examples that are very common. A true master indeed.
I love Chef Morimoto so much, he's such a cool guy thats always made cooking fun and interesting to me
He is legend! Yet so humble and friendly
My god. I feel Sensei's energy, and passion. His rolls are so perfect I could cry. Arigato gozaimasu Morimoto-Sensei.
Been watching him since he was a much younger chef on Iron Chef Japan. Glad they have those episodes here on CZcams too.
he’s such a wholesome and humble person 🫰🏻
I've loved morimoto since I was 20 years old, which was 24 years ago. He's a master.
Thank you Chef Morimoto. I have attempted the rolls you have demonstrated in the past. The results were ok for my family and friends. It has always been a bit intimidating for me as there is always a level of perfection that the home cook somehow seems to struggle to find. Thank you for reminding me that this is a life long pursuit, and most of all, fun. I am going to make Maki and Nigiri for my family tomorrow. ( Of course with a bowl of Miso :)) Please take care and stay well.
As someone who has made sushi from scratch, definitely do this! It's so fun and if you screw up the shape, oh well! Still delicious. I made a mango one just to see what it would taste like. It was delicious!
I adore this man! My sons and I have just started trying sushi and want to learn to make it ourselves. Thank you for this!!
He seriously brightens my day. I want to be friends with him.
I literally squealed when i saw the notification, and practically screamed when i see Chef Morimoto’s face on my screen 😍 actual legend!
He's one of the most enthusiastic chefs I've ever seen, legendary
I Don't think I'll be making this anytime soon but I now have a much greater appreciation when someone else does
I end the video feeling so happy, Iron Chef Morimoto is adorable and we must protect him
I love how lovely he telling us to move the rice on the seaweed! "move, move.." I wanna try to make sushi just of this thing! Love it!! :)
Loved the video. Your sense of humor and the happy way you make sushi is amazingly fun to watch. Thank you!
My husband, daughter and I made Maki rolls and California rolls for our family night activity tonight. It was perfect and so delicious!! We used smoked salmon, salmon tempura and shrimp done in panko. Other ingredients included carrots, cucumbers, avocado, peach and cream cheese. Thank you for your tutorial, chef! 💗🥑🍑🥕🥒🦐
He is so fun!!! This was very helpful to watch!
We are blessed to have this legend thriving and giving us his insights and tips! 😍😍😍
I really enjoy his personality and charismatic expressions. He is naturally funny 😂🤣🤓. I will try this when Covid clears to invite some friends to try my home made 🍣
THANK YOU! I’ve always failed making sushi rice and now it turned out perfectly! Thanks so much! Greetings from Germany
Watching his movements, the man has a role for every single digit on his hands. Nothing is wasted in dexterity and that’s mighty impressive
One of the best videos on CZcams, he’s awesome!
I haven't clicked on a video as fast as I have for this one!
I've always been scared to cook rice, but today I'm changing that. Learning how to make sushi will be so freaking awesome!!
I have been a fan of his since Iron Chef Japan over 20 years ago!!! That was my favourite Iron Chef show, I would love a dvd box set of that series and Morimoto was always my favourite to watch. This, this was SO COOL to watch.
He’s having so much fun 😂😂😍 adorable and his English sounding excellent
He is a master chef for reason.
I love this. I used to watch him on iron chef when I was a kid. It was one of the only late night shows that helped with my anxiety. This is so comforting.
Loved his presentation, his attitude and personality 💕!
Shall definitely make sooner than I thought I would.
Not intimidated by the thought of making it anymore 🙏🏼!
What a legend! The Iron Chef! The honor of enjoying his dishes Reigns Supreme!
I used to watch Iron Chef when I was a kid and see him only on TV. Now that I'm an adult trying to learn and cook different cuisines, I stumbled upon this video and it brought back the memories. I enjoyed this video so much. Thank you Munchies and thank you Chef Morimoto!
The rice is important. And the fish. And the technique. AND THE SMILE. LOVE.
What a lovely man 😭 an amazing teacher too, can’t wait to try out his methods
Finally!! A proper video of sushi!
Thank you! Chef Morimoto you made it look easy!
Hello Keanu Reeves here reaching out to fans during this pandemic, hope you're staying safe?...
I learned Cajun/Creole cuisine under Paul Prudhomme decades ago. Morimoto reminds me of Chef Paul having fun, cooking and teaching. What a true master.
Been a fan of Chef Morimoto since the OLD Iron Chef shows in Japan. LEGEND. And his place in Manhattan is incredible. Best yellowtail nigiri (hamache) I've had in 20 years!
wowowowowoow. I love eating at his restaurant always. love the food
Man I remember Morimoto back when he used to be on Iron Chef in the early 2000s. Man is a legend.
First time watching him and i loved it, he's such a sweetheart. Thanks for the video chef! ❤️
Wonderful Chef. He just showed how home cooks make rolls. He spent years learning his craft
