  • sopoooo not helpful

    

  • u have no idea bout sushi making oO you have to wach sushi rice first! lol

  • this guy is emporer of all doushebags

  • does it make a difference if I use regular vietnamese rice instead of japanese sweet rice? or can I use either one of those?

  • @x911girlx you should use japanese sushi rice and no other rice. The japanese rice especially the sushi rice has a special sticky texture after cooking and it is lots easier to make sushi with this sort of rice :)

  • the rice needs to be washed to drop almidons ass XD

  • you're a friggen jerk off you know that? i'm a REAL sushi chef and I'm offended by you and your video. you obviously know nothing about about sushi. good luck feeding your bullshit to people. i can only imagine what you teach your kids. hahaha sorry for them. born losers just like daddy. good luck with your pitiful existance broski.

  • hate to see a white guy teaches sushi, just as bad as a white guy teaches martial arts. 100% phony baloney.

  • hate to see a white guy teaches sushi, just as bad as a white guy teaches martial arts. 100% phony baloney. Just slap some rice and raw fish together to call it sushi! you need to grow up eating sushi and understand the culture behind it. totally intolerable!

    sushi making takes about 10 years to master.

    sorry if my english is bad!

    i live in the u.k but i am Japanese!

  • I think this guy's an obvious weeaboo; you know what I mean? He's probably shouting japanese-like nonsense, while jacking off to some hentai.

  • hehe, the way he talks is lyk insulting. so coool, but kinda messy tho.. but i luv it...

  • nori is not seaweed it is not a plant.

    It is a plant-like protist called algae.

  • LITERALLY, at least 80% of people who post comments on youtube videos are asshats, as seen below.

  • If Ed Kawasaki is an itamae of some sushi bar, then what sushi bar did he work at? He probably had his own sushi bar, but he didn't actually mention the name and geographical location of his own sushi bar.

  • This is too involved. I think I'll just stick with sashimi at home.

  • Nice work, we liked your video very much so we embedded it on ChefCommons . com w/ link back and reference to Youtube. (Let us know if you don't wish for it to be featured)

  • damn, that Ed Kawasaki sux at the Japanese Language. at 1:16, that's not a Bento Knife, that's a Yanagi Knife. you don't stir sushi rice, you slash and flip sushi rice.

  • Thx...he learning engrish too

    Mr. Kawasaki

  • nice video...sushi is an art....respect your ingredients...don't forget to NOT smash the rice around...spread it without smashing....also plastic wrapping your bamboo mat helps not to stick to it....keep a smooth even pressure when rolling it....all in all...good video but your end product looks a little sloppy or rather not as pretty as i'm used to seeing

  • Thx...

  • if the popularity of sushi has "LITERALY" exploded, then all the people that are trying sushi for the first time would "LITERALTY" explode

  • wow if this guy has a japanese last name and is preparing a japanese dish, he should at least try to pronounce the japanese words with the accent if he is experienced.

    besides that, will try the recipe haha

  • I hate the fact that sushi is a luxury here where I live (Belgium - but also the Netherlands, France).. I mean its expensive. why?

  • God damn it, I hate people who say "literally" without knowing what it means... So the popularity literally exploded huh? Did many people get hurt? What was the ignition source? Geezz

  • I even know what "literally" is. Literally for example "cat got your tongue"; therefore, a cat actually took a man's tongue. Am I right or wrong?

  • You are correct sir.

    Mr. Kawasaki

  • I used "blonde" Sugar in the Raw when I had no refined sugar and the taste was quite good. I use that now instead of refined sugar. Just takes longer/more work to get it to dissolve.

  • so you use any kind of raw, unrefined sugar in lieu of white refined sugar. is it ok to use palm sugar, agave nectar, stevia powder, turbinado sugar, and other natural sweeteners in the sushi vinegar?

  • that would be your choice. I would probably stay away from liquid sweeteners like honey or nectars as it would be hard to get the rice to dry.  Although now tht you mention it, I will have to try honey or agave nectar to see if it dries well when cut with vinegar. I'll let you know. Could be a good add to give your rice that special zap that no one knows about :)

  • i had very few of the proper ingredients, so i used apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, brown rice, a plastic bowl, a wooden spoon, and it turned out pretty good. i made onigiri with it.

  • just to clarify my comment below....that would be 1TBS Mirin for each cup of rice and dissolve the sugar in the vinegar seperately b4 adding to the rice

  • Uh....every sushi chef I've talked to told me to rinse the rice first. I notice when I dont rinse the rice it is more glutinous and not as "clean" when cooked.

    I use calrose short grain rice. I also add 1tbs mirin (sweet sake) to the water b4 setting to boil. As to the vinegar recipe, I use seasoned rice vinegar and one doesnt need to use superfine sugar. If using regualr or blonde sugar, use low heat to help the sugar disolve.

  • are you saying it's ok to use organic unrefined sugar to make a sushi dressing for sushi rice. is raw sugar ok to use for sushi rice?

  • I'm sorry but by the way he made this the sushi would taste weird. The rice must be washed and doesn't need to rest with the kelp, and the vineger mixture is incorrect too.

    I don't mind paying for my sushi, especially when the restuarant here is so cheap and good quality. Anyone ever eaten at East in Manhattan? It's to die for!

  • wtf its 6 table spoon of vinegar,5 tablespoons of granulated sugar and and a pinch of salt for one cup HES WRONG and you have to clean the rice till it goes clear then make it and rest it for 30 minutes

  • what type of rice can i use? (short grain) is there a specific type...=P

    i tried to make it with regular rice but it was so soft and gooey....

  • koshihikari rice is the type of rice they use it is also called sushi rice

  • you can use any short or medium grain rice. i heard that you can use brown rice, for sushi.

  • dude, your technique is completely wrong. You MUST, I repeat MUST, WASH THE RICE, until the water runs clear.

  • i learnd that from alton lolol

  • yes, uh huh..

  • I had sushi today, paid 11 bucks for 6 pieces and a tea at a local grocery store, would love to see more, i could eat sushi everyday, i like it with the brown rice sometimes used and without creamcheese and other juke foods

  • (To link7291) I know it's important not to use metal because the vinegar reacts to it.

  • I need the Wooden Bowl or i can do it in any bowl?

  • plz respond

  • thank you for all of the wonderful information. I'll go make sushi now!  :)

  • what's the difference between Nori and Kelp?

  • Nori is algae, and Kelp is seaweed. Use nori for making sushi, and kelp is part of making sushi rice; but use dashi konbu.

  • ROFL kelp or kelb means dog in arabic lol

    *thumbs up*

    Japan ROCKS!

  • do you know in the arab world, thumbs up has the same meaning as the middle finger.

  • who the fuck told u that!

    It's bullshit, who do you think we are, dambasses?

    I think you have the wrong idea, because thumbs up is the same way everyone think of it around the world

  • " Thumbs-Up/Thumbs-Down As far as most in the Western world are concerned, thumbs-up is a sign of positivity, a signal that everything is okay, while thumbs-down signals disapproval or rejection. However, in certain countries, including many in Latin America, West Africa, Greece, Russia, Sardinia, the Middle East, and south Italy, thumbs-up gestures are considered offensive. "

  • That's totally wrong... The thumbs up is only insulting in the Middle East, not in all those places you mentioned...

    BTW, sushitime can go fuck itself, I hate idiots who plan on doing a series and only upload one video.

  • It's not only one video. It's a couple of videos that this douchebag made years ago, but refuse to make a lotta videos. My cat has more videos than that douchebag gaijin who calls himself a sushi chef unable to pronounce many Japanese words and sux at making sushi.

    (short grain is rare in flint)

  • did you find some short grain rice at any asian market? if you probably can't. go buy some medium grain rice, at any market. that's great for sushi noobs.

  • theres no asian markets here unless you leve the city and thanks for the tip

  • I thought u had to rinse the rice before you boilded it?

  • that's because you had the rinse-free rice. you think rinse-free rice don't require rinsing, but they do require rinsing like any other rice.

  • hmmm, I was refering to the video, he didnt rinse the rice before he boilded it....

  • btw, it's spelled boiled, not boilded.

  • yes, it sure is, but still i have no idea where you got the idea i said anything about rinse-free rice, so you gotta maybe? learn to read?

  • i found out you were talking to ed kawasaki, and not yourself. my bad. he has the rinse-free rice, so he thinks he don't have to rinse it, since it says rinse-free. or he made the sushi rice by tv magic, like some chefs do, in food network.

  • ahh thanx :)

  • at 00:17-00:23 he's doing it wrong. he should not cut the half maki into four like that. he is supposed to cut the maki in half, then cut both halves in either thirds or if you want to cut a maki roll into eight pieces, finally cut that quarter of a maki roll in half. it's much quicker and you get more uniform cuts

  • You're right. You also cut the rice, not stir it.

    I also noticed that the presentation wasn't exactly there in the demonstrations of him cutting rolls. It had huge patches of rice missing and just looked sloppy, and sometimes the individual pieces came unraveled.

    Outside of those nitpicks, he seems to have the idea down.

  • wait a minute! i remember that sushi rice brand before. that's kokuho rose, a rinse-free sushi rice. people believe that rinse-free sushi rice don't require rinsing; according to sushi for dummies, rinse-free sushi rice needs to be rinsed like any other sushi rice.

  • That would explain why the rice didn't seem to stick as much as it should to his rolls.. interesting, glad I saw this comment!

  • i'd be willing to bet if I asked someone that worked at Piggly Wiggly if they had nori, wasabi, or rice vinegar they would probably look at me like I'm crazy because I am.

  • "to prepare your rice, stick to the instructions on the back of the packet" okay that was worrying to hear. Are you serious? This is terrible, carried with the arrogant air you carry and not knowing what to do exactly

  • When I was 16 I worked at a Chinese buffet and made better sushi than that.

    All we did was cook the sushi rice like any other rice, add JUST rice vinegar later, mix it up, and roll it with crab meat, cream cheese, and a zucchini. I used to do them inside out too with seeds on the outside it's easy this guy does in fact, suck. Hell I rolled better than that with my bare hands but that's from my experience with rolling blunts :).

    Real sushi is the BOMBAY!!

  • you make sushi since you were 16? and you make better sushi than that guy from sushitime. i make sushi at home for 7 years. :-)

  • That's not the way how to cook the sushi rice,This guy doesn't know how to put the rice on the nori.i think he need and 10 more years to learn that

  • if you think a sushi chef learns to make sushi rice, nigiri, and maki rolls for 10 years. do you think a person who makes sushi rice, nigiri, and maki rolls for 7 years, is nearly as experienced as a sushi chef of 10 years experience. do you think a person who makes sushi for 7 years, is more experienced than ed kawasaki.

  • I think that washing the rice is pretty much common sense and doesn't always have to be explained. He did say that there are instructions on the back of the rice package as well, so washing the rice could very well be there.

  • nori is not kelp, it is a died algae product...

  • you said it brother. and you meant dried, not died. it's algae collected on a fine screen inshores, to be extracted from the screen, and sometimes roasted over a fire, or something, then packaged.
