HIRO TERADA Basic cutting skills

[AWS137]

This is basic to Asian level.

[benkerr69]

I tried this and now i have only half a thumb :P

[phezla]

like a boss.

[Jingjangkekeke]

Jeez, the cucumber "paper" is amazing!

[blackcats160616]

this is basic skill　because　he　is　professional

[watermelonmunch]

how did he do that with a tomato0.0

[jasonnguyen1125]

he definitely works at a sushi place

[murfdawg76]

@jasonnguyen1125 He works at NoVe restaurant at the Opera Tower down in Miami. Great place, check it out! :D

[danny3571]

Yeah cutting is basic but to reach his skill level takes talent and years of practice....

[theflyingblues]

These are so basic it takes just 25 years learn and master

[Wo0denvids]

There was a hair in the onion....

[orfigo]

@Wo0denvids actually that was a really thin slice of onion and you saw the red skin of its top side!

[ruscalable]

awesome. would love to be able to do this. the knife looks like a short suji or a long petty. maybe 210mm? western style handle. hard to tell what the steel or the brand is though...

[naruchan007]

what is the red thing he used to decorate the plate at the end?

[acechan112]

i wana kno wat knife he has and the brand :o

[aptusshooter]

Far from basic skills.

[LUK3SYboy]

sashumi knife brooooo

[LUK3SYboy]

cant stand anything with out a decent rock to it

[Shibbie75353]

7:12 All that knife work and then he uses fake crab meat? What a waste.

[akinasukizakura]

いい包丁といい技術は、素材の切断面も美しく、切り口を壊さない­。

[choppaxstick]

But it's really basic knife skill. If you r working at the right restaurant. Normally you will do this everyday at the last cutting board,if your new and learning. I started with very hard carrots. Once that's mastered,cucumber and etc much more basic. O.o

[tod3k]

Well ok.... He is better than me!!!! ;-)

[saiziman]

that's not basic skill's that's a MASTER skill!!!!

[choppaxstick]

Great vid,great knife skills,but I would like to see the cucumber thinner than it is,like able to see knife brand through cucumber,then I'll give ya hands down.

[loldotalol379]

AMAZING! Look at this left hand's index finger. He did a lot of cutting his knuckles to get to the godly level he is now. true inspiration

[neosoux]

It's probably the easiest thing I have ever seen in my HOLE and ENTIRE life. Oh my GOD!

[neosoux]

c'mon, thats too easy!

[JELLJELL1111]

What's the song?

[Treebard]

That trick with the cucumber where he spiral-cut it -- I think he should have said, "Don't try this at home, folks!" LOL

[Jike14555]

Everything was perfect except he had his index finger on the top of the blade... bad habit?  Other than that though; Amazing.

[westham99000]

There's no way that this is basic...

[apygnouxx]

@westham99000

No no, this IS basic....but for Chuck Noris ^^

Awesome anyway! Thanks for the video!

[illadin12]

@westham99000 no... asians learn at a different pace... its due to our abusive parents.

[Stefandurrr]

@westham99000 It is for a ninja.

[omaslipper92]

@westham99000

asian!

[XMetalChefX]

@westham99000 Believe me when I say that although practice makes perfect, Katsuramaki (cutting the daikon into a thin sheet) is easily learned with a few basic tips. But no its not BASIC BASIC, but it is an essential skill before you even cut a fish in a sushi ya.

[darkspirit14]

@westham99000 i am a sushi chef and yes this is basic. it reallys explains the depths of being sushi chef. it took me months to just get all the "basic".

[thelumbahjack]

@westham99000 its just straight cutting. but super speed

[alienboyguitar]

The title should be change to 'Advance' Cutting Skills

[ap2pat]

this guy is a G!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ZeRo2545]

food surgeon.

[alisiae1]

I wish there was no music. I love the chopping noises!

[Britcenturion]

Those skills aren't outstanding, its just modern people don't know or have very little experience using a knife, I grew up as a kid with knives of all shapes and sizes, most of us boys had at least a couple of pen knives, my skills are as good as this chefs

[otepmeimban]

that was just basic ninja skills ^^,

[mybelovedmariawong]

Good job !

[ind20000]

[MahoroSu]

[hawahihawa]

[heykuckma]

That was GREAT!!! Has anyone ever watched that loser show "master chef" in australia??? Those idiots can't even cook water!!! Australia sucks anyway, dumb ass country full of morons!

[PrincessKonohana]

my cooking teacher said you should always cut AWAY from your fingers and hand :\

[Skinnerc1129]

@PrincessKonohana your teacher sucks

[s3v3rth3stars]

el tipo este esta emmmpingaaaoooo!!!

[pallues]

i don't normally crave raw tomato but sliced like that it would be so much fun to eat. esp with that cucumber paper. is that just for garnish or what?

[LadyRingtone]

I think it's the hardest skills that i've seen :o

[mp15tc]

[maplestorywater]

[Glivity]

[aptiva0789]

@Glivity Start slow with a sharp knife and with practice it becomes a basic skill

[t3tsuya]

held the cucumber too hard, bruising it

[imev6lli]

whats the point of this vid ?

basic cutting skills isnt cutting everything as thin as u can

although the cucumber was cool

[avm15101990]

i can chop faster...its not the price knife its the way you sharpen and take care of it tht maters

[loZtnCold]

It's not a knife anymore, it's a razor :O

[GhostFireX]

Totally forgot to mention the price of that knife he's usin.. So Sharp that it cant cheap!

[gkcnae]

[JuiceboxBeyotch]

VEGETABLE LAVE NATION!!

[witchman1]

Wow.

[gweazy420]

[littlewing62]

@gweazy420 mangoe i think..

[OrangeCrush0881]

a few months of practicing an hour a day and u can do it to. its really easy.... just gotta keep up with it

[pankajchavan21]

i can do dat :)

[kein406]

Its a perfectly fine way to hold a sujihiki. It will be harder to cut if held like a gyuto

[Touristcl]

Q PRO!

[Stian1342]

yummie, impressive knife skills and the food looks perfect at the ending.. #1 !

[Chikagba]

He has a wierd way of handling the knife (with index finger out) but clearly it works for him. Kudos brother. Great skills nonetheless.

[heyyyyyynow]

I question using the end of the knife for anything other than precision cuts. you have more torque and strength using the back end towards the tang. You will end up having to sharpen the knife twice as often, considering you have to smash it into the cutting board to get the desired result. I am merely a novice though, and appreciate viewing anyone's techniques.

[helelbenshachar]

@heyyyyyynow These are Japanese Knife skills its a whole other ball game compared to European and western style methods. The knives, real Japanese knifes (Not GLOBLE and "Japanese" other brand names) are totally different they only have an edge on one side and are made with iron not stainless steel. On the topic of sharpening every good Japanese chef/cook will sharpen his knives religiously, daily. Until you've felt and worked with one on these knives you have no idea what sharp is, :-)

[ipwnnubz420]

@helelbenshachar He is using a western style Japanese knife and all Japanese knives are made out of steel some have an iron cladding to prevent the steel from rusting as some of them are not stainless.

[atchayot]

cheap kind crabstick? = suck azz kanisu lol

[rosendin20]

he doesn't even hold his knife correctly lol but he is decent

[dinobublz]

now THAT is how you rape an onion XD

[iaidosamurai]

Your knife skills are AWESOME !!!!!

[johnkimkr8]

What are the knives that you use in the video?

[DW2000Live]

@johnkimkr8

It is likely a Fujiwara Sujihiki. I have the same knife and it certainly looks the same.

[Gr4bb3r]

@cuchuoinice most of asian peoples? theres no other people than asian...???

every one who cooks, knows how to cut like that

[peanutking242]

i use a food processor!

[cuchuoinice]

skill??? most of asian peoples can cut like that

[JeffSGeorge]

@cuchuoinice So just because other people can also cut like that, none of which I have seen, means he doesnt have skill? Ya, if that isnt skills I dont know what is.

[horexing]

What kind of knife is he using? and what brand?

Looks like a honesuki. 

[naskoBG26]

What's the music?

btw pro skillz :D

[ddamyanov]

Basic? Come on, there is little left for advanced techniques, don't you think?!

[daaniel20]

@ddamyanov

well.. Cutting like that IS the first thing you learn in a professional kitchen... Advanced knife skills is to me, more about perfectly cleaning and filleting fish, perfectly boning and portioning meat and such stuff.

[ToxicMayhem12]

 I CAN'T

I WILL CUT MY FINGAS OFF

[chride87]

@ToxicMayhem12 u dont have to start with fullspeed :D

[2912555]

wow at the cucumber!!

[Shade1541]

SPEED HACKS!!!

[iTzzEuphoriaaaaaa]

what is that red stuff he uses to dress the cucumber rolls ???

[fikonfraktare]

@iTzzEuphoriaaaaaa

tomato threads ;)

[biggytop]

@iTzzEuphoriaaaaaa I think it's beetroot...

[iTzzEuphoriaaaaaa]

@biggytop that's what i was thinking it looked nothing like any tomato ive ever seen

[iTzzEuphoriaaaaaa]

This is incredible .. that knife is amazingly sharp the way it just glides through the vegetables ... such an inspiration !!!!! :DD

[sum41Rck]

grovin to the music lol 

[9k47hao]

[Alexa87ism]

hey,wish i cook for you sarmale and mamaliga;))

[ltkammo]

[kosnowman]

[Kowex]

[zh1988li]

[StoutZ33]

some decent knife work, but that kanisu at the end looks bland.

[Huba588]

Such Finesse.... This inspired me to practice :)

Thank you.

[nelleey]

OMG...i want to be your apprentice..lol..you are really talented...must've been practicing for a long time...i find that chefs who work with sushi have lots of knife skills. Great work!

[galarkongen1]

my hero

[zuri4rmlaredo]

MAD SKILLZ!

[hideopalescent]

what's the point of soaking it in water?

[xManu9ox]

@hideopalescent If i remember well its so the flavor is not that strong when eating it raw like in a salad.

[MusicforMe123]

The last dish was amazing.

[kragier]

Love the sushi roll, I can never remember what the technique it called!

Looks like a stuffed cucumber 8D

I thought my fingers were too small to go fast, but yours are around my size (or at least same height), so now I feel guilty ;-;

[saikhnaa13]

good knife skill my friend. whatever knife that is (sujihiki or honesuki) you look like you know how to use it. now you need to show people how to get things done with other knives such as yanagi, deba, usuba etc. also that cutting board will mess up your knife in the long run. Keep up the good job.

[gweazy420]

finaly a chopping move thats not a waste of time

[MrStantonP]

F A I L !! !! !! !!

[cliffcox66]

GREAT knife skills. Skill sets and result imply much experience. Thank you.

[StampRox]

[oneofy]

@StampRox

Most eloquently put. That shit is dope.

[ChefLed808]

great job chef..

[GoldenKid25]

[Mirabela2284]

[hellomoto4000]

[jets0121]

Very good knife skills. :) I want to see you peel an asparagus katsuramuki style and make a roll out of it, I've seen it done before.

[predpin]

Magnifique,cela doit être vu!

[enriqum1]

great... he can make really small food really fast... who wants potatos that are minced like garlic?

[MadWom]

@enriqum1 That was a mango

[mushufreak]

[urkingod]

JAPANESE EXCELS in EVERYTHING ~!!!!!!!!!!

[speed0852]

[CT2507]

wow!! impressive! loving it! want to become a Chef now!

:)

[Tatilove88]

BASIC???

[shuangyang66]

what is the red color strands he used as the garnish?

[missnaly16]

it's beet. Also, it's doesn't look like a honesuki. i use one and the blade is a little bit taller than that. And most of them are usually 150-170mm. Seems more like a short sujihiki to me.

[overtchillz]

spring onion, using misono honesuki 440 ? 1:34

[BoxerMonkey]

this can't be done with any ordinary kitchen knive can it?

[microflex22]

That's a sharp blade! With a hand that's seen a lot of prep work.

[miagy420hwy]

the guy is amazing, this is far from basic

[moapictures]

Basic? i said very professional skills

[UCLASeraph]

Time to buy myself a Honeski style knife I guess... shieeeeeet

[pabajay]

Pretty sure it's a Suisin Inox Western-Style sujihiki.

[UCLASeraph]

holy shit. watching him turn a cucumber = HOLY SHIT.... 6 MINUTES. GG

[mcv23]

easy peasy lemon squeezy ...

[Robopencil]

Basic... LOL
