I’m rather miffed that sushi joints are lying and calling their moriawase platters “omakase” nowadays, just to capitalize on the trendiness of the word. That’s not what omakase is. Omakase is serve-as-you-go, possibly lightly customized. It’s not some preset sampler platter you get all at once.

my first attempt at a roll was really tasty, although next time I need to do better at sealing the roll, I’m content for a daunting first try!

Hey Sushi guy here, I forgot who tagged me on here asking about the steelhead trout from Costco. It’s about $2-3 cheaper per lb, but does come with the skin. It turned out really well!! In the video I only slice it for sashimi, but it made for beautiful nigiri as well
First of all, never use freshwater fish for sushi, this farmed steelhead trout is an exception as they’re raised in their ocean phase only

This is also a product of Norway and works well. Happy Saturday!
The Steve1984 ‘nice’- an excellent addition to any video
Steelhead Trout is absolutely divine for nigiri.

Costco salmon is not sushi grade.
Look close and you’ll see roundworms. Never seen a fillete without them there.
Very educational!
Looks great. What is the purpose of the salt and sugar?
Looks delicious!
It also makes really good gravlax.
Was this previously flash frozen for parasites? I thought raw sushi could be saltwater fish only as well,
Why do you cure it with salt and lots of sugar? Is it done traditionally like that?
i worked as a sushi chef for years. i later worked filleting for one of the largest seafood processors in north america for five years. we supply much of the steelhead to costco. i absolutely do not recommend eating this raw.
it’s fed specific “food” to make it look like salmon. QA runs around with a color chart to make sure it’s within the correct range. they also use a solution of water and chemicals to kill the awful smell that comes off of the meat when it’s old. that same fillet goes to costco, and you’d have no idea.
Seeing your yt shorts is literally what brought me here. Full circle!
Nice hiss!
Salt, sugar and rinse? Is it really safe to eat it raw?
More importantly, are there restaurants that actually serve them (Steelhead or Salmon) like this as sashimi?
Gonna have to try this
Do you have a link to the spreadsheet at the end?
