Canada days...

Before I became Sushi chef, I worked as French cook for 8yeas.During that time,
I've lived in canada(toront) for a year and I worked for a French
restaurant.


The restaurants name are Marcel's Bistro and Le saint ropes.
I worked for a hotel of Markham Embassy suite too.




Living in canada was a great experience for my cooking also my Life.
That's way I make a French dishes(kind of lol) too still!

delivery

This plate for delivery service.

I made first one(shrimp) slowly.
our egg sushi is big size, so I make nigiri different way.
I hope you enjoy my second video for youtube.
I hope you enjoy it!

why is it?

When we mix vinegar with rice for sushi, we use a wooden pail and rice scoop.

Why must it be a wooden pile!?

because wooden pail absorbs extra liquid flowing from rice,

finished in the "syari(sushi rice)" that is in a good conditions.

one more word today. speaking about "Gari".

Ginger of the slice which soaked in sweetened vinegar,it is called
"GARI".

It is called GARI Because when you eat, it make a sound "gari""gari."

or when you slice ginger, it make a sound.

Matsumae sushi

This is the japanese traditional sushi called "MATSUMAE".

the fish is Mackerel.

put the fillet of mackerel in to salt for 3hours,after that wash it.
and then soak into the vinegar for three to four hours.

I pull a skin and cut body of mackerel to open.

then I put rice and roll it up.

after that put "konbu" on top then finish.

you can eat deliciously for around 3 days.

Fresh Nigiri sushi is a representative of sushi recently

but before, sushi was save food in old days.

this sushi was created in the middle of

a process of evolution.

and taste good!
