This is one of the best videos I have seen on how to portion a filet, I am surprise this video did not get more views. Excellent job, thank you for posting this presentation.
If you want to grill the collar bone, i would cut a little further away from the fin so you have more meat. The fish is a little too fatty to make a clean tasting soup. However, you can grill the scraps and pick off the meat to use in a salad or rice bowl!
Fish for sushi should never smell "fishy". To ensure you get the freshest fish, talk you your local fish monger. They'll be the experts and can tell you what fish is the freshest. Try and stick to cold water fish. Alternatively, you can find frozen sushi grade fish at your local Asian grocer.
MusicforMe123 It is usually just discarded because of it's very strong irony flavor. However, i can be prepared grilled and served with a side of ponzu or topped with caramelized onions as you might do with liver.
In the video I'm using a Nenox gyuto (Japanese chefs knife) . For breaking down fish I usually use my Nenox deba and gyuto. I also have a Nenox sujihiki(Japanese slicer) for cutting sushi and sashimi.
Jay Huang I'm an avid fisherman and this year we've caught quite a bit of yellowtail. Do you have some recipe suggestions for different dishes? I usually do a lot of sashimi but I'm looking to try some sushi (need a recommendation for sushi rice and seaweed) as well. I also need to find a good recipe for the collar. Thanks
Peter Tam Check out my sushi rice video and my roll video for instruction on those skills. As far as recipe ideas, here are some flavor combinations i really like for sashimi and even for sushi: orange and serrano; avocado, thai chili, kefir lime, sweet chili and cilantro; cucumber and basil; melon and mint with chiles. As far as the collar, the classic miso marinade isalways fantastic. Otherwise i enjoy a nice sweet soy glazed hamachi collar grilled over a robata paired with nice salad and chili ponzu for a dipping sauce.
The long knife is Deba or Gyuto? I saw it on nenox website but I don't know which one should buy., I want use it for fillet salmon.Can you tell me pls thank you.

Thank you for teaching master! I also did 1 year sushi working but your hands are great! Far better than mines.. props sensei-san!

You got some serious skills man!
I appreciate the kind words
I enjoyed the video. What is the length of Nenox Gyuto and Deba you are using?
Thank you for the support. The gyuto is 300mm and the yo deba is 165mm
Great video. What do you do with all the part you cut? Collarbone probably you grill it, but how about the parts you cut in the end? Soup?

Do you use the bloodline for anything, or is it discarded?
