    GRAPHIC!!! - How to fillet a fish - Sea bass - Japanese technique - すずきのさばき方
    Chef Dai demonstrates how to fillet a Sea bass using traditional Japanese techniques.
    (WARNING - if you're at all squeamish and uncomfortable with the sight of blood and intestines, please ignore from 1:44 - 2:53)
    The Sea bass, known as "suzuki" in Japanese, is widely eaten across Japan and can be prepared in a number of different ways.
    We would recommend using a scaler to scale off the fish if you have one. Chef Dai couldn't find it one at the restaurant on this particular day........... investigations are ongoing ; )
    Thank you for watching and please don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have!

    Just one hour ago a neighbour presented us with a sea bass caught this morning in Kanazawa. After our disastrous attempt to gut and fillet a buri last year I went to UA-cam and found your site. The reult two fillets not quite in your elegant manner but for us successful. One fillet has been wrapped in kobu seaweed for sashimi tomorrow and the other fillet for frying. Thank you for such a clear demonstration. One last point, With a perfect English accent you had to have lived and been educated in England. Congratulations.

    Thanks for the great video.

      Good steel and care. Also, Japanese-style knives usually have angles of 12 degrees, whereas Western-style are more like 20 to 25.

    • @shouryaray
      @shouryaray 4 роки тому +1

      For anyone wondering, that’s a Deba- a traditional, one bevel, Japanese knife for gutting fishes. Yes, that’s literally a knife specialized for just cutting up fishes.

    did you just cut the gall bladder? They say you cannot eat the fish if the green stuf gets over the flesh. Is that true? Cant you just wash it off?

  • @joseki6644
    @joseki6644 2 роки тому

    Instead of chopping the head off, you could 1st snip the neck, and pull away the head with the guts along with it. Saves you the step of potentially cutting into the guts which discolours the fish

    Your technique is practically flawless! goes to show you've been doing this for quite a while, I'm already a big fan and I wish I would've found your channel sooner! I too am an aspiring chef and watching your videos gives me confidence because you make it all look so easy, yet you look so young yourself! Do you own a restaurant in the U.S?

      +Carlos Torres Thats really kind of you to say so, thanks so much for the awesome comment Carlos. I have cut many sea bass in my time but, to be honest, I'm still learning everyday and striving to perfect my skills. In my eyes, I've still a long long way to go and for me, thats where the enjoyment of cooking lies.
      Its great that you're an aspiring chef, just keep practising, work hard and I'm sure you'll become a star chef.
      Thank you very much for the comment re. me looking young too, I'l just respond by saying, "looks can be deceiving" : )

    • @mikechung4886
      @mikechung4886 3 роки тому

      Japanese technique when removing head first I believe. And I think they remove the guts first and clean out the impurities before filleting so it doesn’t seep into the actual filets for sashimi, the reason for this fish in particular to have a clean taste.

    u could ve use more meat at end of the tale cuz u didnt push down the fish a bit while fileting u just let the knife go all the way 2 fast. Same wit the head meat u cut a good part of meat there. This aint hard to do it wit a great knife like that, i work wit all kinds of fish but my knife is not that good lol but still do the job

    • @CookingwithChefDai
      @CookingwithChefDai  8 років тому +3

      +Terr0rMKD The remaining fish skeleton and meat in this video was later grilled under a salamander whilst being brushed with a light soy and mirin mix. The meat was then removed from the bones, flaked then put into a salad. nothing is ever wasted in the kitchen.

    • @Griffologee
      @Griffologee 8 років тому

      I'm not sure the exact brand, but it's a traditional Japanese chef's knife called a deba. It's beveled on one side only. His technique isn't the "Japanesiest" though (in my opinion, but I'm no expert). He's using some western knife handling techniques too. It works, but for this style of fish filleting, I'd prefer a really flexible western fillet knife.
