What type of soy sauce uses exclusive Japanese sushi restaurants in Tokyo?

by

Exclusive Japanese sushi restaurants differ from other restaurants. In Europe, most people are using the Michelin guide as a yardstick that is not the case in Japan.

In Japan there are many exceptional restaurants that never find their way to the Michelin guide. In these types of restaurants the sushi chefs use a unique soy sauce for the sushi pieces that cannot be bought in shops.

It is a soy sauce that the sushi chefs have often developed themselves but it does happens that it is a recipe that has been passed on for generations. Unfortunately, the soy sauce is secret.

Why should fish for sushi be frozen?

by

Fish to eat raw should always freeze. This is because fish contain parasites and the only way to kill them is to freeze the fish.

A small side jump. You should also fresh beef to tartar cows get parasites in the body like fish. Unfortunately, I do not know if beef to tartar is frozen. But I do not think so.

Now back to the fish. It is not the same type of parasite found in e.g. in tuna as in the salmon. This is because there are 2 very different fish species that primarily eat very differently.

In addition, the fish structure of the salmon and the tuna is very different and also affects the parasites found in the two different fish.

How long the fish should freeze is not the same and it depend again whether there is a whitefish, salmon or tuna.

At Sushi course for beginners I will talk more about the Japanese rules for freezing fish. The Japanese rules are more strict then the Danish rules. I choose to follow the Japanese rules as they know more about fish for sushi. In addition, I would also like to be on the safe side.

Therefore, Japanese sushi seaweed is so healthy!

by

Most people have heard that eating seaweeds are healthy. And that’s it.
There are more and more companies that sells seaweed to consumers.

However, I am a little skeptical.
It does matter where the seaweed are picked. There are areas that are contaminated.

Therefore, I continue to eat seaweed Nori for sushi.
Seaweed for sushi is grown as oats grow on a Danish soil. That’s why I know that the quality is okay.

In addition, sushi seaweed is the vegetable in the world that contains most minerals and vitamins.

At Sushi course for beginners I talk a lot more about seaweed.
