Just threw this together for Valentine's Day. Got the fish from lux gourmets.
why did you cut the fish so thick?
>>7376339
Everything looks way too thick, especially those cuts closest to the camera
>>7376350
the cuts closest are toro and otoro. they are both super tender and melt in your mouth. I prefer them to be thicker cut.
You're going to make someone sick, please don't make them eat this, chances are they'll be nice enough to try a few bites.
She/He will really will hate it but be to ashamed to tell you the truth. It will be awkward, either cut them thinner or abort.
You've been warned man.
>>7376360
Ok, fair enough. Has the person you're giving this to eaten this before?
>>7376339
May as well have cubed it and put toothpicks in each piece.
>>7376339
you should spring for real wasabi. It really makes all the difference.
>>7376365
>You're going to make someone sick
Fuck you faggot
sushi fish is always frozen and defrosted, most parasites are killed
>>7376386
What a stupid reply. Foodborne illness from raw fish is caused by marine bacteria, not parasites.
>>7376391
bacteria are killed as well
>>7376395
you sound like an old wife
Ommegang! You better not be a fellow Upstate New York-man putting on airs with all this fancy fishy-fish.
>>7376378
Yeah I skipped out on the real stuff it's impossible to find besides the Internet. But I did pickle the ginger myself and it turned out amazing. It had s lot more kick to it than something you find in a restaurant
>>7376402
>I can't come with a better argument so I'll just insult you
>>7376410
I'm in Atlanta actually. Ommegang is one of my favorite breweries though, it's fairly common down here. My favorite is their Three Philosophers quad.
Here is some nigiri I made just a few minutes ago also. Big eye tuna with miso mayo made from scratch and salmon with serano and home made Ponzu. This is my first time doing most of this stuff and I'm really happy with how it's turning out.
>>7376339
Not sure why everyone in this thread was ragging on your sashimi. But it looks pretty darn good, how that that beer pair with it?
>>7376339
Also in case anyone is curious, the types of fish are toro, otoro, salmon, hamachi, big eye tuna, and some other cuts of bluefin. The shrimp are some huge Texas gulf shrimp. I put a mixture of sesame and chili oil on one row of the hamachi and ponzu on the other.
>>7376675
Honestly the tripel was a little much for the plain raw fish. My girlfriend also got some Funaguchi saki from H mart and it was an excellent pairing.
i bet you served them stone cold
pls don't do that
>weebs call this "cooking"
>>7376339
slices are a bit thick for my pref, but the fish looks pretty fuckin good. i'd eat it
>>7376690
prepping the board takes a good while and I had all the fish sitting out while I was putting it together. There is a nice balance between ice cold and room temp.
This is like a Cooking with Jack except the OP isn't even shilling any sauce, he just literally is retarded.
>>7376709
>he didn't watch Jiro dreams of sushi
B O D Y T E M P E R A T U R E
>>7376339
Too much big raw fish for me, BUT
it looks BEAUTIFUL.
>>7376339
>I'll be out in a second, honey, I just need a moment to find out what 4chan thinks
>>7376395
>no
>>7376685
everyone gives shit to japanese beers, but they really are the best for sushi.
>>7376339
Sorry about your thread, OP.
It actually looks gorgeous.
>>7376654
>clap your hands twice and throw a pinch of dust over the meat and all the eeky deeky will die
>>7376339
>soy sauce packets
>>7376879
thats the shit that came packaged with it. I use pearl river bridge
>>7376779
thank you senpai. I was really happy with how it turned out overall. Better than I've had at some restaurants. I know its no where near perfect.
>>7376913
where do you live?
>>7376339
Were is lux gourmets in atlanta? Another atlanta person here
>>7376976
its a website. they overnight ship to your house
>>7376339
As a sashimi chef of 11 years, those are the most laughable knife skills I have ever seen. That shit belongs in a dog bowl.
>>7376391
With ocean fish it's the parasites you have to watch out for bruh
As long as he got WILD caught ocean fish, it's all good
>>7378324
As a sashimi chef of 12 years, those are the most laughable social skills I have ever seen. You are a dog.
>>7378350
As a sashimi chef of 13 years, those are the most laughable shitpost skills I have ever seen. I am a dog
OP I would have not wasted a single bite. Pretty jelly and would eat. Glad you enjoyed your night. Thanks for sharing
>>7376339
The cut edges are kind of ragged and the slices are uneven. It might just be the lighting but the cut surfaces aren't as glossy as they should be.
OP is probably OTP lol
>Atlanta jokes
>>7378390
>tfw I am OTP
>>7380069
I'm a pleb. Pic related.

10/10
I would devour the hell out of it.
Bonus for me too
>wife is allergic to fish. all mine!
Looks good to me, but id still rather eat sashimi that has been prepared by a trained chef.
>>7376866
Do you have some sort of shit-tier autoimmune disease, guy?
I've been eating sushi since I was ten and not once gotten sick by it. I've even had it in the Midwest, despite my skepticism of land-locked states being able to make good sushi, I had the impulse. Totally fine... Not bad sushi, either.
If you're actually being made sick from raw fish that was intended to be eaten raw in this day and age I'd seriously start questioning my trust in who's selling it to me and what it actually is...
>>7378370
Woof grr woof woof woof ruff woof WOOF woof, grr woof woof RUFF woof grr woof woof ruff grr woof woof ruff. Ruff woof grr woof.
>>7376339
Looks like a coral reef / 10.
Being picky, it's lacking something in sharp edges, gloss and convenient layout that I can't quite put my finger on. I assume that comes from working with pre cut filets that have been in transit rather than a whole fish you can trim fresh though.
>>7376339
Wanna be my bf? I would definitely appreciate this. Good job.
>>7376339
If the sashimi is good, making sushi or 海鮮丼 are always better
>>7376736
Yeah whatever cunt face but that shit is still cut too thick
>ITT things that look good but taste like shit
>>7380502
I dunno, coral reefs look nice. A coral reef I could eat sounds awesome.
>>7376386
What about all the toxins produced by our Vibrio friends? Good luck with that. Not to mention unless your handling is good the fish after prep will be swimming with E. coli and Salmonella.
>>7381152
Stay mad plebaboo.
>>7376913
Have you even heard of nori nori, they have the best unlimited sushi
>>7376666
try a tiny dot of crumbled blue cheese with your tuna nigiri next time, shits amazing
your sashimi is fine, really nice spread
don't mind the autists in this thread complaining about thickness
>>7376339
Are you an 8 or 9 on the autism spectrum? (not a troll)
>>7381409
Too much fish
>>7376666
>made from scratch
You fermented your own soy? That's a little overboard.
