i am GENUINELY asking, not trying to make a joke: what actual culinary skill is involved in putting a piece of raw fish on some rice. i get he puts a lot of effort into finding high quality fish but what the fuck is he actually doing thats so special?
Dreams of ass rape
>>215622345>the zoomer raised in a disposable consumer dystopian cant comprehend the concept of a master craftsman dedicated to his artbehold, a video more to your taste:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTs4wGopuAM
>>215622583what craft has he mastered? the craft of putting a piece of fish on some carbohydrates?
>>215622345You don't understand cause you're a gaijin
They should serve the sushi blindfolded and see if customers can actually tell the difference. I’m sure Jiro probably could, but if a customer can’t then there’s no point going there.>>215622616He teaches his staff how to make everything. He basically just serves the sushi and plates it.
>>215622345civvies wouldnt get it
>>215622345>I LITERALLY have never made sushi but my birthright as a faggot zoomer is to trust a priori knowledge as equal to experience!
>>215622583Answer the question, dickwad.

>>215622345>what actual culinary skill is involved in putting a piece of raw fish on some rice.Not a whole lot, which is the subtext of the documentary. Jiro isn't a role model.
it was funny when he called president obama a baka gaijin and kicked him out after screaming "japanese onry!!"
Sushi is literal dog shit.
>>215622701>makes WHAT does he make? the rice? thats the only part of the process that involves actual cooking
>>215622750Imagine serving that race baiting Muslim communist
>>215622788If you can do it so easily then do it and make as much money as he does.
>>215622701>>215622345I can tell the difference blind folded between low quality and medium quality sushi.It's rather blatant.However between medium quality and high quality sushi I guarantee there is no difference in taste.Best sushi I've ever eaten was from some place called Ken's Sushi in Nashville that was delicious. It was just a Jap shop, nothing more.I've had sushi in Japan also, it wasn't better.
>>215622810Imagine tomahawks for Zelensky, Ivan
I somehow highly doubt that Jiro's sushi is any different from the prepacked stuff I buy at walmart.
Think of the meat you grill, sear whatever. Does the cut, thickness, type of cut (location on the animal) affect the taste? It's simple cooking logic retard
>>215622853The difference is in the quality of the ingredients, it doesn't have to do with any cooking process
>>215622345Sushi isn't just raw fish on rice. Sashimi is a type of sushi, but not all sushi is sashimi. At any rate, the Japanese value dedication to a single endeavor because of a certain Zen tradition that really took off there. You can only make sushi so well before you hit the hard limit of how good sushi can possibly be, but what people respect is the dedication of the maker, and the presentation is part of that, and his attitude toward it is too. Does he make the best sushi? I don't fucking know, and neither do any of the jackoffs who suck his wrinkly little cock. Bit he's kbown as a dedicated craftsman, and that's enough to impress people by itself.
The entire sushi industry is built upon a foundation of -Classism -Ageism -Cronyism -Nepotism -Phoniness -Insecurity -Nationalism -Xenophobia It is a form of food industry late-stage elite-ism and narcissistic theatre.I guarantee, am absolutely certain, that sushi prepared by a person who has practiced sushi-making for only 5 years daily would be absolutely equal to those who have practiced for 50 years in double blind tests, if not superior.
>>215622908So why dont you do it and make as much money as him?
Man fuck you bitches I’m hungry now and do you know where I can get sushi at this hour? Nowhere. Not even shitty sushi. I wish I could nuke you personally with my own two hands.
>>215622853Even so, you get like 10 seconds to eat each piece of sushi. Can’t even enjoy the shit. >>215622788He spent years making the tamago. The fucking tamago!
>>215622345OP is clearly someone who has never eaten good sushi.
>>215622939Make it yourself.
>>215622853>Ken'sLooking at the pix, very nice. It's all about the training + experience. He did his tour of duty in NYC restaurants after growing up on an island, knows to hand pick fish from trusted source, etc.
>>215622345>what actual culinary skillSelecting the best fish and sourcing things like eel from backwater towns. 'Actual' cookery of various dishes and sides (e.g. Octopus). Various sauces. The rice itself isn't just straight out of the steamer. And not killing you by butchering Fugo wrong.
>>215622986None of that takes a lifetime to master.
>>215622959Yeah I’ll just go fishing at night even though those fish don’t even live here. Fuck you you stupid nigger.
>>215623036How would (you) know?
>>215622925>narcissistic theatrekek, read the sous chefs' "memoirs". they are abused badly by the hierarchy in the kitchen too. Which would've made sense for The Bear to expand on. How is any line of work without phony facade, esp if they justify a pay gap among different positions, or need to sell a perceived high value to chumps? Complaining about Japan's nationalism + xenophobia is not understanding how they take pride in a sustainable culture/lifestyle. You'll never be one of them, but you don't need to.
>>215623036Yes it does if you want perfection.
>>215622345This is how you make sushihttps://youtu.be/vj0P0aTCSrw?t=588
>>215623055Common sense.>>215623068Hello Mark.
>>215623036life isn't that long
>>215623091Why should I believe you have common sense?
>>215623062>How is any line of work without phony facade,The ones that are absolutely essential for society to function tend to have far far less of it.
>>215622345I've made homemade sushi a few times before, so here's my take:>Assembling the sushi when everything's done is probably the easiest part>Getting the rice done right is extremely tricky, my first two times making it I fucked up the ratios for water and the vinager just a little bit and it completely made a mess out of the flavor and texture of the rice, even my latest tries were barely shitty sushi restaurant grade quality>Cutting the fish is also skill that can make a big difference in texture, you need to cut them at the perfect angle and at the perfect spots to get the best texture>Since there are so few ingredients and only the rice is even cooked and seasoned, the actual ingredients obviously make a gigantic difference, even a tiny dip in quality in the fish and rice can be felt. Working for a restaurant, even if one completely unrelated to Japanese cuisine, I know finding good local sources of fresh ingredients, and getting them to give you the freshest products for a good deal is an extremely long process and it really takes an experienced Chef to make the best of what you can get.
>>215623073That much fresh big eye tuna would cost thousands of dollars in Japan.
>>215623041Slum it, retard. Adapt, substitute, and overcome.
>>215623122kek
>>215623202I have tuna and crackers on hand at all times.
>>215622908>my salmon is better than your salmonyou're shitposting.>>215622953Does he really only give someone 10 seconds to fucking eat?My process was eat one, savor.Switch to my miso soup as a pallet cleanser, chase with water.Try next one with a little onions sauce and a small spunk of wasabi.After that I eat at whatever speed I wish.>>215622985Ken's was very comfortable, shame he went back home to Japan.He was in a low income neighborhood and you can't cut cost on some of the fish prices.So he just sort of closed shop.
>>215623264>Does he really only give someone 10 seconds to fucking eat?Not 10 seconds, but definitely a fast pace. A minute or so. Patrons don't get time to socialize.
>>215622701I remember from the movie he would get the old stinky fish instead of fresh fish from the market because it has more flavor, or more stank. so yeah you could tell the difference.
>>215623161add onto that the hardest part for a restaurant is consistency balanced with speed of servicesushi's one of those things that's not economical to make yourself
>>215623437>>215623161Sure, but does this take longer than a few years to reach the level of diminishing returns in skill? Absolutely.
>>215623413actually that might've been a no reservations episode
The fish they use isn't really fresh, it's frozen
They have to get the rice juuuuust right
>>215622345Sushi is an art form that is thousands of years old. Kill yourself you fucking faggot.
>>215625402ooooohhhh veeewwyyy diisshonorobu! he no think putting slice of raw fish on rice is art!!
>>215625419If you think its just putting raw fish on rice then youre eating gas station sushi and have never been to a legit sushi restaurant
>>215622345Seemingly simple things can take a lifetime to truly master. For example, I have raped over 400 homeless in my time and it's only in the last few years that I feel like I've mastered the craft. Gender irrelevant.
>>215622616>putting a piece of fish on some carbohydratesDeconstructionist fags make life tedious and painful. You will never get it so why even bother explaining anything to you. Hylic.
>>215625402Spotted the weaboo child predator
>>215622883ntaDilate tranny.
>>215622616>painting? isn't that just applying pigments to a stretched cloth? anyone could master that
>>215622345Cooking the rice and butchering the fish.
>>215622583>>215622723>>215622958>>215625402>>215625460You are the hylics, ratard cattle. The entirety of modern Japanese national image is blatant marketing. Absolutely shallow attempts at impressing dumb masses with exoticism.You are no better than people that fall for AI ads.
>>215625506Kek, idiot compares an artform to peasant food.
>>215625570>kek, idiot compares an artform to doodling dicks
>>215625449Just look at those retards, look how they ALWAYS just deflect with petty attempts at elitism (while discussing cheap peasant food propelled by muttmerican consumerism to the spotlight among globalised masses). They never discuss the intricacies of taste, can never properly explain the substance.I can discuss the subtle differences in flavour among Chilean and Portuguese wines, how smell can be noticeably different between different types of wood used for aging.These miscreants? Never anything concrete.
>>215625608What are you even trying to say, you retarded nigger? This deconstruction doesn't work, because visual creativity simply incomparable to primitive cooking.
>>215623385that's miserable.sushi is just rice, seaweed, and fish.i've had hundreds, if not a thousand if it didn't sound so exaggerative saying it.part of what makes it good is the personal flair of individual dishes, the experience of the onions sauce, wasabi, possibly a tea.People pay to eat this dudes food and I swear to god it's probably only above middle at best.Favorite roll I ever had was an Eel roll with a wasabi/mayo sauce and a onions sauce with a splash of brown sugar.The experience was taking a bite with the spicy sauce, followed by a bite of the sweet.Only way I can explain it was like having a Warhead, followed by a sip of Powerade.Mouth was on fire and instantly put out by the onions sauce mixture. Did something to neutralize it. Wonderful taste.
He puts his life force into the sushi
