Bro just so you know I’ve worked on fish farms and our fish have CRAZY parasites compared to wild caught…
@@BillyTheCheeseMongerfresh water?
@@BillyTheCheeseMonger This is why they say need to be frozen for X amount of days
Yes the Max Miller reference!
It's grog time!
Love both your channels (you and max!!)
hard tack👏👏
Love the references.. love it more that I get them! 😂
Thank you! I like sushi, but am too cheap to go out as frequently as I would like. Now i can enjoy it more economically!
I like how u said that

Nice hiss!

I just discovered Steve and I was like "is this the 'nice' meme??"
@@lauraphoenixjumpp3455 nice
I’ve been eating cheap Costco sashimi for about a year but I’m going to try some of the techniques from your videos. Thanks again
Let me know how it goes!
I’m still scared, but you give us so much education to support our choices. Thank you!!
A shoutout to Steve1989… nice.

The fact that you quote the MRE guy is just amazing
Nice!
Nice hiss

Thank you for citing sources on farmed salmon safety! I’ve been hemming and hawing for months on whether or not I should eat salmon raw from the grocery store, but I never found a definitive answer. I’ll be heading to Costco to give this a try soon! 🎉
Check out yesterday's video on Safeway too, it may be my favorite to date!
@photogami checking it out now!
This is bad advice. Farmed raised Salmon is not good on any level. You can use wild caught. Just follow the guidelines and its 100% better.
@@RP-ue9wy Wild caught will always have worms
@gishman2 Not always and its 100% better. Totally fine for sushi. Farmed salmon is crazy.
Because of your channel I started buying salmon farmed and making my sashimi. Taste like restaurant quality
I'm so glad to hear that! There is so much gold quality out there
@A Z are you eating wild salmon raw?
Yeah we do the same for tuna, as long as its solid frozen, you can expect it to be safe.
@@limes37138yes. Freeze it and all the parasites are dead. Easy.
Farmed salmon is not good man, no reason to eat it.
can you guys spot how many of my favorite creators I've included in here?
4! Also, I've been binging your videos and all I want to eat are Sashimi and Sushi! Thank you for inspiring my cravings!

Super informative and calming plus the Steve and Max references. Nicely done man
Much appreciated!
Teach us how to prep this salmon for a pan sear. You have amazing prep skills. I bought this salmon and it was not good.

TASTING HISTORY!!!!
(enter tasteful classic music here)
"Nice hiss." 😂
This is incredible information, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I’ve always wondered if this was do-able, nice seeing a simple and to the point vid on it looks fire
Its an obligation to use Max Miller hardtack references when it comes to clicking two hard piece of food together
Haha I was so excited when they were clacking around in the bag
Love the tasting history reference
i love the tasting history clip of clacking the ship's buscuit
Clack clack
I appreciate the ‘Tasting History’ hardtack clip insert you used 😂
Nice

That slap sounded like something else 😂🤣
You have the best content out there
Thank you for the kind words ❤

What is the mixture for the saline?
wow! thats awesome
Can you make nigiri with this as well? I’m tempted to give this a try!
So good to know! So is the saline bath necessary with store bought frozen salmon before using for sashimi? If I do these steps, the salmon will be fine to use? I mean, are there any steps I'm missing?
The salt bath makes the meat firmer, it doesn’t do any kind of sanitizing
I'll be posting the full version tomorrow
From the FDA perspective farmed salmon is guaranteed safe from anisakis worms. However as with all raw foods bacterial risk is there. Costco has a great supply chain, but if it was exposed to temperature abuse (melted during the trip), it will lead to spoilage
The saline bath is for wet brining which is for improving texture, flavor, and treating fishiness. It will not sanitize fish if I had been colonized by bacterial growth
man you watch the best food channels, both max miller AND steve references in one short?
Holy fuck the hardtack meme caught me so off guard
Clack clack
stevemre, tasting history, going to sub now
Nice! (Seriously thank you)
I don’t even like raw fish but it’s satisfying hearing him talk and cut the fish and prepare.
Ive been wondering, what is your profile pick on here? It's so vibrant
Thank you! It's cube shaped tuna nigiri/temari with gold numbering on them
Thank you for the hack - I tried but maybe I grew up eating good sashimi I can’t stomach the frozen ones. I recommend Costco fresh salmon (boneless skinless with the round sticker) - cute with salt and sugar and freeze. This is what my native Japanese friends teach me.
That one is excellent! The v2 version covers this process - I do a 45 min sugar and salt cure ua-cam.com/video/f_YKXZjVInY/v-deo.htmlsi=eFb2kv16nHwfb46a
This is a very good hack to know. Dumb question, but does this apply to all frozen fish types at Costco (e.g. Tuna, Mahi Mahi, etc.)? Also, is it possible to confirm the commercial storage conditions prior to the product reaching stores? Great content!
Thank you! I'll do a video on the tuna one
For the home setting, I would only recommend tuna and farmed salmon. They're the two that are safe from a parasite perspective. However they are both susceptible bacterial overgrowth and temperature abuse
do I need to get farmed tuna or is any tuna OK?
@@__dm__ Pretty sure there's no such thing as farmed tuna
@@AndrewS-wj8be Farmed tuna does exist, but it's rare and I think it's not big scale enough to be widely supplied.
easy sushi recipie i will recreate
Is it just me or does this guy sound exactly like GoldenGully
I get that time to time
I had no clue this could be done
I bought this same package, but there’s no text on there to say when the fish was frozen. What would you do in this situation?
Does it have a best by date? I would go by that and if it's before then proceed with caution. See how it smells after the bath
How do you prep and choose the right tuna for sushi
I will do a follow-up video on the tuna version ❤
What did you put? Salt and/or what else?
Hmm. I have a bag of that in the freezer, I'll have to give that a try!
I tried this same exact bag and the first 5 fillets after putting it through the ice bath with salt came out fine and didn't smell. My last 2 smelled fishy and upon slightly tasting were off. Idk what I'm doing wrong? Is it maybe I'm not putting enough salt? Or does putting it in the fridge remove the smell
Hey sorry for the late response! Sounds like you did everything correct as the first 3 were fine. It could've been too little salt, but sometimes some of the fillets are not up to par
What do you put in the solution? You said 3-4% is it just salt? Or salt and sugar?
Do frozen sockeye salmon from costco
Creased when I seen the mre guy😂
Thank you for the vid because I’ve been craving it, but What did you put in the water
30g salt and 1000g water. However it's very forgiving, go for the saltiness of the ocean and you'll be set
@@photogami yes sir thanks
That particular bag is from southeast Asian farms you always want to make sure they’re from Northern Europe much better fish farms regulations there.
Thanks for creating this! Sashimi is the last dish I’d want to create. I always thought the fish needed to be fresh. Never knew this was an option !
Just don’t do it with fish you thawed and refroze
@@FizzyCape Good tip, refreezing is a no-no!
i wish i had known it was this easy XD
someone's a fan of Max Miller!
What exactly is "The smell test" since there's a little hint of fish I can smell. How much is too much?
Tried the bath but the salmon was still pretty frozen after the 30 minutes. Should I leave it in the bath or let it thaw in the fridge?
After the 30min, I would pat dry and then thaw (wrapped or in a bag) in the fridge for 5 hours. At that point the brine should've continued to pull water out. Pat dry one final time, slice up, and enjoy
@@photogami thank you so much!
What kind of knife do you use !? 😮
Hey does it need to be labelled as sashimi grade ?
No, sashimi grade is more of an opinion than a certification. You can meet the FDA criteria without the label, at least in terms of parasites
Can u do this with the sockeye salmon too?
Needs more freezing if wild
LIFE SAVOR ! All your videos .. I bought tuna once .. freezer it then thawed days later just dry.. cut and ate .. no anymore
Thank you! I'll do a follow-up on tuna next time
Frozen for seven days at a seriously low temperature. It was probably flash frozen after processing to that temp but Costco's freezers for sure aren't that cold.
Bro pointed at the wording that had nothing to do with the infographic 💀
I’m buying the Costco wild caught Alaskan salmon 😋🌞 I was birthed and raised in Alaska and my dad worked on a crab fishing boat.
Hopefully I’ll get more than an Easter egg pastel ❤ otherwise I need to order from Alaska fisheries.
It says -4F for 7 days, not just frozen. How do you know that costcos freezers aren’t set at 0F? Does it matter that much?
What’s better tasting? From the fresh or the frozen?
Fresh tastes best imo, but frozen (tastes good, but the texture is lacking) is super convenient!
No way in hell I eat farmed salmon! Spend the extra $10 for wild caught which is right next to the farmed. Look how disgusting the farmed looks. Compare it next to the wild caught.
I wish it was readily available
Important distinction between "frozen for 7 days" and "Held at -4 F for 7 days" BIG difference, and if you don't understand the difference you shouldn't be preparing raw fish.
very adventurous with this one
We've been doing this one for years, from an FDA perspective its very safe in regards to parasites
Sorry for the silly question, does the salmon takes his bath before of after thawing?
Before/thaw in the water. May not be fully thawed after 30 mins but that’s okay put in fridge
How many salt and water ?
I came here for entertainment not for another lesson of biology
Can you share the saline solution recipe?
30g salt 1000g water, it's very forgiving. Go for the saltiness of the ocean and you'll be golden
@@photogami thank you!!!
Wait so do you defrost before or after the salt bath?
It defrosts IN the solution
@@Chemeleon15 in 30 minutes?
@@madiw2097 yes directly into the salt solution, and yes 30 min is all you need
Okay Im confused. Where on the fish does it say its been frozen for 7 days? The gentleman's finger is on some number but I have no idea what it means. It clearly isnt a date, so what proof do I need to look for at my local costco that my fish is safe?
Are you Japanese? I’m loving the videos from Germany brother
Danke, ich bin Koreaner
I prepared Alaskan wild caught as fresh as u can buy from traders joes and Freeze for ~48hr or more hours. I hope I'm alright, 😅😂
What about the risk of Listeria in salmon?
I have worked with foodsafety for a long time and would never eat this ..😬
Isn't this true of all sashimi/raw fish though? Is there anything different that could happen that would stop the risk of listeria without cooking it?
Yes and no, the problem with salmon is that most of it is coming from large factories where it is realy hard to remove an listeria problem..
When making salmonfilets that is ment for cooking it is cheaper, when making it for eating it raw the routines is very strict and this makes it more expensive
Genius
I feel like you are risking some health issues for readers promoting eating lower grade fish as sushi. 🤷🏻♂️
Are you futurecanoe's roomate?
What did you add in the water? Salt and something else?
Salt and sugae
$300 sushi is clickbait lol
Nice little hiss!
(flameless ration heater steaming away)
Sushi grade fish doesn’t have a legal definition in the US, but it is not as simple as freeze the fish and you’re good to go.
For one, most home freezers do no go below 0 F. Some chest freezers do but your average fridge/freezer combo does not.
In addition to being free of parasites, fish for sushi also has to be free of bacteria. Fish that’s going to be frozen and cooked doesn’t have to be handled with the same standards and care because the bacteria are going to be killed in the cooking process. Fish for sushi cannot be subjected to time and temp abuse. Good sushi fish is flash frozen when caught or harvested.
This flash freezing also protects the texture of the fish. Slowly freezing fish in your home freezer is going to make a mushy very down market sushi.
34 DOLLARS????? WHAT the fuck? A kilogram of fresh salmon is like 20!!!!!
Thats not a saline solution brother. words have meaning.
How isn’t it? It’s a solution containing salt.
If a piece doesn't pass the smell test, what could that smell like?
It’ll smell fishy I think. If it’s good it shouldn’t really have a smell
Super fishy, moldy, or sour
Yep!
Yo how do you make that saline solution?
He said “3-4%”
That means weighing your water then multiply by 0.03(or 0.04) and using that number as the weight of salt you put in the water.
@@Chemeleon15 exactly! I shoot for 30g salt to 1000g water (1L). However it is very forgiving and doesn't have to be exact. Go for.thr saltiness of the ocean and you'll be golden
how do you make the saline solution?
It's 30g of salt to 1L water, however it's very forgiving and doesn't have to be exact. Go for the salinity of the ocean
Any kind of salt is ok?
@@aznmashimaro91 I say yes and use table salt. Some argue for sea salt but I skip it and I'm also cheap
I thought sashimi was freshly killed fish ..
Not max and MRE hiss 🥹
mmm omega 3
iykyk
What’s in the solution???
what temperature is the saline solution at? i also saw you adding ice later as well
I usually do this step in the fridge with filtered water, but for video demonstration added ice. You want it as cold as possible
Does that salt bath defrost it?
Nah bro. Heat defrosts the fish.
@@petergoestohollywood382 hehe
It both defrosts and wet brines
Marinate it for a spell. 💪🏼
