The reason why sushi rolls have become a popular dish in Denmark

by

I do not think I know any other country where you eat so many sushi rolls as in Denmark. It is not negative meant.

One of the reasons might be that the Danish people do not eat as much fish as the Japanese do in Tokyo.
The selection of rolls is also very large in Denmark. Most sushi restaurants in Denmark have a large selection of sushi rolls on the menu which offers different flavors. Some restaurants have their own signature scroll.

By eating sushi rolls you will also be eating different kinds of vegetable which support your wellbeing.

What is your experience as a sushi chef with vegetarian sushi?

by

The vegetarian sushi tastes amazing.
I regularly make delicious and tasty vegetarian sushi that can make a bird sing.

Vegetarian sushi is something else. You use different kind of raw materials, flavors and aroma that apply when you work with vegetarian sushi. This means that vegetarian sushi is more challenging to make.

Different cooking techniques must be used in the preparation of raw materials for sushi but also when making aromatic sushi pieces.
If you are careful in the preparation of sushi you will find that your sushi meal tastes better than sushi with fish.

What is Japanese chefs view of food waste?

by

Japanese chefs have a different view of raw materials.

Basically, nothing is thrown out. Everything, according to Japanese chefs can be tasty snacks or dishes by using different Japanese cooking techniques.

Some years ago I visited the exclusive Sushi Restaurant, named Kyubey, located in Ginza in Tokyo. I ordered a sushi menu consisting of a miso soup, a small starter, the chef’s selection of nigiri and a cup of green tea for dessert.

During the dinner I was served a large living shrimp that was made for the most delicious nigiri. Yes, the sushi chef broke the head of the shrimp, removed the intestine and made it to nigiri.
The tail itself and the head were not thrown out. It was cooked in the kitchen and a little later I was served the tail like a delicious and crunchy chip.

Tokyo part 4: What is authentic Japanese sushi?

Authentic Japanese sushi is very different. It is very simple in its expression and tastes different from what is served in Europe.

In Japan all types of fish are used for sushi which means that the menu card offers many different kind of fish.

The biggest difference between European and Japanese sushi is the techniques used to make sushi. In Japan it is normal to use techniques that take 20 years to master.

by

In Europe and especially Denmark the sushi roll Kaburimaki has become a popular dish. The reason for its popularity is because you can combine several different raw materials in different ways.
With a Kaburimaki roll you can highlight the flavors and flavors of raw materials in new ways.

The weather do also affects Japanese kitchen utensils

by

The climate in Japan is very different than in Denmark. The humidity in Japan is high and that is an advantage for Japanese kitchen utensils. Many Japanese kitchen utensils are made of wood because wood has a positive effect on food.

Wood is an organic material and is influenced by the climate. The high air humidity in Japan has a positive effect on wooden tools in a way so they do not dry out quickly and thereby crack.

You can meet that by regularly moisture the kitchen utensils.

Catering sushi jobs in Los Angeles

I just sat and read old notes from my Japanese sushi chef Toshi sensei.
I stumbled upon this internship log from 2006 and I can not help but to think back on the many cozy and busy hours in the Sushi bar in Los Angeles.

Catering job at the film company Paramount Pictures in Hollywood and catering jobs with celebrities in Beverly Hills, Bel Air area. Gated areas that require authentication to access.

Private homes in the price range 70 millions, parties, bodyguards and a wealth that I have not seen elsewhere.
