Looks amazing. I thought it was a restaurant order before reading the title.
Yummo!
Replying to comments is erroring out for me but he's been doing this for a over a year.
Prep was over an hour but making the rolls was about 30 to 40 minutes. He very meticulous about the whole process. He's half Japanese and his mother is loving special weekend dinners at our house.
The white fish there is yellowtail!
Looks delicious! I'd say he knows what he's doing. Our daughter, age 3, devours raw fish. We can't afford to keep up at restaurants so need to learn these skills ASAP. How'd he get so good? Practice or is there a secret source of knowledge?
He practiced for over a year. Maybe about a year and a half. He's super detailed in everything he does so he always researches topics and methods to death. He's also part japanese and introduced me to some of the best food Ive ever had when we visited his family in Japan. So when we came back to eat at sushi restaurants near us it wasn't even a comparison.
Making the rice is a whole process. Washes, then soaks for 30min I believe, cooks, seasoning and and he fans it to cool it. I wish I could be more detailed but I can ask him and relay it later!
Pardon the overly curious question, but how much did that cost you? It looks stunning but I can’t help but wonder how many legs I’d have to sell to make something like that haha
He usually buys the fish wholesale. Per meal its cheaper than us going out to the nearest sushi spot...and so much better!
How does one buy fish wholesale? Do you need to have a chest freezer?
He goes to a restaurant supply market to get fish or if he's in the area he'll just go to this Asian market. 1 yellowtail will last nearly 3 days with 3 to 4 of us.
are you guys adopting?
I think I remember you from another site I used to visit, wonderful to see you here, sushi looks beautiful!
Very nice! Does he slice the fish himself?
He does! He buys the sushi grade whole fish wholesale.
This looks great
That looks amazing! I'd be so excited to eat this but also terrified to eat it because it look like art.
What a mighty good man.
Any tips for how to buy sushi grade fish? I’m not even sure how to find it.
It depends on where you live. He goes to an Asian market or a restaurant supply store and gets the fish.
So beautiful! Did you all learn by just practice and experience? Or trained?
That is so well organized and done.
That's a great spread, I'd eat it. Nice job!
Wow this looks amazing!
Delicious 😋
What's the special occasion? Hopefully really good news!
Killing me. Between this and trying some David the Diver. I need some sushi - now
おいしい
Means "delicious" if anyone is wondering
Also I'm still learning Japanese so I might not understand you if you respond in Japanese
It looks really well done. Like someone asked, how long have you all been doing this?
That's some serious dedication to making a dinner...
Looks amazing! But where are the beans?
Sushi beans would be either natto-gunkan or edamame
How long did he take to make all of them?
What’s the raw chicken breast sashimi meant to be?
It's likely a Kingfish sashimi.
