Yes to sushi and sushimi.  Yes to tempura and hibachi.

Mouthcaller:

You need to check out the video of the history of the most famous sushi chef in Japan, Jiro Ono, which is "Jiro Dreams Of Sushi."  It's a very serious business in Japan, and in big cities in the US, for that matter.  People pay hundreds and wait months to get a seat in his restaurant, and he feeds them what he wants depending on the fresh catch, and in the order he wants to serve it. 

He is an ornery old curmudgeon, but anyone that meticulous and a perfectionist is just interesting to see, whether you like sushi or not.

That's what I'm saying. If you leave out of there hungry, it's your own fault.

Parasites in fish are a natural occurrence and common. Though not a health concern in thoroughly cooked fish, parasites are a concern when consumers eat raw or lightly preserved fish such as sashimi, sushi, ceviche, and gravlax. The popularity of such raw fish dishes makes it important for consumers to be aware of this risk. Raw fish should be frozen to an internal temperature of ?20°C (?4°F) for at least 7 days to kill parasites. It is important to be aware that home freezers may not be cold enough to kill parasites.[5][6]
Traditionally, fish that live all or part of their lives in fresh water were considered unsuitable for sashimi due to the possibility of parasites (see Sashimi article). Parasitic infections from freshwater fish are a serious problem in some parts of the world, particularly Southeast Asia[citation needed]. Fish that spend part of their life cycle in brackish or freshwater, like salmon are a particular problem. A study in Seattle, Washington showed that 100% of wild salmon had roundworm larvae capable of infecting people. In the same study farm raised salmon did not have any roundworm larvae.[7]
Parasite infection by raw fish is rare in the developed world (fewer than 40 cases per year in the U.S.[citation needed]), and involves mainly three kinds of parasites: Clonorchis sinensis (a trematode/fluke), Anisakis (a nematode/roundworm) and Diphyllobothrium (a cestode/tapeworm). Infection risk of anisakis is particularly higher in fishes which may live in a river such as salmon (sake) in Salmonidae or mackerel (saba). Such parasite infections can generally be avoided by boiling, burning, preserving in salt or vinegar, or freezing overnight. In Japan it is common to eat raw salmon and ikura, but these foods are frozen overnight prior to eating to prevent infections from parasites, particularly anisakis.

I have an iron gut but raw sushi was the only thing I couldn't swallow.  It just kinda hung up and wouldn't go down.

Absolutly love sushi!  Can't get enough!  Best I had was when I was fishing in Islamorada FL and the capt. cut up some tuna right there at the dock.  Can't get any fresher than that!

We have a first rate Thai place up the street and they do sushi also , it's good , not exactly filling -  but some of the more exotic sushi is quite good

On a side note I have access to good tuna steaks , it's red like steaks -- and I finally figured out how to sear cook tuna steaks at high heat , and it is awesome ! Coat it down with sesame seeds and cook at a bazillion degrees for a minute or so at each side , rare on inside --   cut it into thin slices -- good stuff

I too could eat it once a week if I could afford it. When my wife and I can get a sitter and we go on a date we always go sushi. She prefers tempura and sushi rolls and I like it all.

Yes.  That looks great!  Love it, along with raw oysters, carpaccio and steak tartare too.  "Jiro Dreams of Sushi" was awesome, but made me very hungry.

I spend a lot of time fishing.  I can't tell you the number of times I have cleaned a fish and seen a tiny blood spot deep in the meat of a fish, opened it up and found a near transparent coiled up worm imbedded in the meat.  Yes I know Sushi is a different fish from a different area.  But there is no way I can put uncooked fish in my mouth with that image on my mind.

Absolutely! Tuff to beat. But good sushi ain't cheap and its not setting on the back of the Chinese buffet!

Good sushi is awesome for sure.  At it from time to time when I was stationed in California.  Prefer fried crappie though.

Post by: jdavenp3 on March 05, 2014, 11:43:09 PM
Good sushi/sashimi is some of the best eating you can get...IF it is from a place that gets their fish shipped in super fresh and keep it in the controlled temp/environment. When it is bad though, it is BAD haha. I don't venture too far out into the wild sushi categories. Had baby octopus at a bad sushi place and that ruined me from octopus. Freshwater eel is pretty good done right. Stick to the salmon, tuna, whitefish varieties.

So this is my first post here and i am a newbie turkey hunter, but i do a ton of offshore fishing off of the s.e. nc coast.   We have a world class wahoo fishery in the spring and fall with fish up to 100#, we also catch a lot of blackfin (and an occasional yellow fin) tuna.  I can tell you, there is nothing as good to me (and my family) as fresh wahoo or tuna sashimi.  We eat it by the pound. I have two young boys and they have been eating it since they were 3 years old. I can't keep enough cut on the plate for the first 30 minutes.

Its all about taking good care of the fish after you get in on the boat and when you clean it.   We are fortunate enough to have an excellent high end sushi restaurant nearby and we have made friends with the chef who shared his techniques with us.

Probably the most sublime tasting food out there.
