Eel & sake (the oily fatty kind)

I used to waitress at a sushi restaurant and we always had the most delicious salmon. It's probably the best restaurant in my town desu lol. All the servers are attractive Asian chicks. The chef always used to give me and my coworkers slices of sake sashimi (what customers would pay $8.50 for) and it was soooo good

Unagi is better than sake though imo. It's fucking delicious.

Hamachi is absolutely delicious for sushi. For sashimi I enjoy king clam.

>>7219752
octopus nigiri is best, something about the soft slightly yielding texture and the translucence when its sliced to the right thickness.

The average sushi restaurant is not serving real wasabi, they use horseradish that's dyed green. Imitation wasabi. The real stuff is terribly expensive so you'd only be served that at a very fancy restaurant.

>>7219752
I usually just sit at the bar, get omakase and ask for mainly sashimi. That's how I get the best stuff. I've had all kinds of awesome stuff that way. I think my favorites have been uni with quail egg and shiso leaf, and the time he served me half a spanish mackerel (aji) with what I think was a ponzu based sauce and pickled wasabi. I usually never eat wasabi on my sashimi or sushi (because if it's good, it doesn't need it), but I love my favorite place's pickled wasabi. I'll pick the bits out of the little bowl till it's clean.

>>7219925
Are you sure it's not escolar (aka, butterfish)? Escolar is very tasty, smooth and buttery, but it will give you the shits if you eat too much. It's actually one of the few fishes that are NOT very good for you.

>>7224012
Not op, not sure where you live, but "white tuna" is a common menu name for escolar in the US. Nobody says butterfish.

Any decent place will stop you if you try to order twelve pieces of escolar. The "fraud" thing is severely overblown, and so is the diarrhea "problem". People are not stupid.

>>7224017
I live in NorCal, surrounded by japs and asians of all kinds. It's fairly common to see escolar called butterfish here (or just escolar). As a matter of fact, I've never seen it called white tuna, but I've heard of it being called that. And you're right, any decent place will stop you if you try to order too much escolar, but there's a lot of unscrupulous places that don't give a shit. Many people can't tell the difference between a good sushi bar and a bad one.

SPICY TUNA FOR THE WIN

Scallop and octopus nigiri is what I always order. I can eat an unlimited amount of them.

Amaebi

Eel skin is my top tier favorite of all time. Salmon skin is an acceptable substitute. A close second is Inarizushi. I loathe any sushi with avocado and will actively avoid it.

>>7219752
Seared O-toro nigiri.


Judge me, it's fucking decadent as hell so I don't give a fuck.

>>7223925
no, it doesn't
but many countries serve a colored, prepared horseradish paste as wasabi as a cheap substitute, although it and real wasabi are quite different in heat. Why? Because availability and cost of fresh wasabi limit it in many places.

>>7226088
"Sushi grade" isn't really a thing. There's no regulation for that. At least here in the states.

If you learn how to shop for fish properly, you can eat the salmon you bought from the grocery store raw. Just please keep in mind however fresh they claim to have received it, it's probably safe to add a few days to that.

Another thing to keep in mind, wild salmon may have parasites. Those parasites are killed by deep freezing them. If you're going to do sushi I'd get it already frozen, or freeze it after purchasing. No use taking unnecessary risks. The stores are required to inform you if it is has been previously frozen or not, and where it comes from, in case you're worried about quality degradation, or whatever else.

My two cents. Good luck.

>>7225855
Ika nigri

I absolutely love salmon because of its clean taste. I want to enjoy other fish but they all seem to pale in comparison. I've tried tuna sashimi but it's so strong desu
How do I into other fish?

>>7226161
There are far more parasites in farmed salmon than wild and most infections in wild salmon are from exposure to tainted farm stock. Be careful friends

>>7219752

Citations? I mean, I understand the farm's tendencies to taint the areas around them, and the living conditions causing a large number of the stock to die before being processed, but "most"?

I do agree. I'd avoid most farmed salmon. There's a myriad of reasons to do so. It's still wise to have the salmon frozen, regardless. Just buy it frozen from the market unless you have a deep freezer. I don't know of a regular home refrigerator that can get to around -20C. Maybe I'm just retarded.

Don't be retarded with raw fish, dudes.

If it's not made in Japan it's not real sushi

>>7226088

its generally wild caught and its flash frozen at like 0F for 24 hours or like -20F for a couple hours

i pulled those numbers out of my ass but its something to that effect

parasites frozen in your home freezer are generally cooled much slower and far more parasites survive the process

>>7226615
It doesn't matter if it's Tokyo or Philadelphia, I'm afraid it'd still be called sushi. What else would it be called?

Not really just dont eat 10k rolls. Consider sashimi if you are watching your figure. Super delicious still.


On topic, Unagi is best girl. I also have a sweet spot for local styles of sushi. California rolls, restraunt specials, etc. It's nice to try new things, and I can always fall back to Unagi if the rest turns out to be shit.

I really really like a roll for a local joint that is baked in foil. No idea what its called but that shit is crazy delicious.

This has nothing to do with sushi, per se, but I made the woeful mistake tonight of going to my favorite local ramen house, only to find it fucking overrun with cosplay weebs. Apparently there was a convention in town today and they ALL fucking decided to overrun the two good ramen houses, which are right next to each other. I had to wait fucking 45 to get in and eat while being surround with either groups of japanese girls with "super kawaii" animal backpacks and hat with ears or fat white girls and their idiot boyfriends wearing fucking cosplay costumes that squeezed their fat thighs and asses right out of them. MFW.....
I wish I had gone to my favorite sushi bar instead, even though the ramen and takoyaki was top fucking notch.

>It's nice to try new things, and I can always fall back to Unagi if the rest turns out to be shit.

That's because it's babby's first sushi and is literaly made in Japan. Cooked there, slathered in BBQ sauce and shipped to every sushi restaurant in the states where it is warmed in a microwave and served to you. It's all the same from the same place.

Grow up and try some real sushi, pleb.

>>7219752
No favourites, but I generally like eating white fleshed fish nigiri along with tuna nigiri. Some of my favourite white fish are bonito, mackeral, herring and snapper. It just tastes so refereshing and interesting, with a bit of sourness and fishiness but not over the top.

>>7220295
Surf Clam is too rubbery for me. Sea Bass or Bream are just unbeatable for sashimi. You're right with the unagi nigiri though.

I honestly wish I still enjoyed anime and the most recent dramas weren't such crap. Its extremely difficult to get any kind of media out of Japan that isn't anime, manga, or big name j-dramas. Its hard to get Japanese language media for studying the language outside of Japan.

Japanese people just don't pirate and the old people refuse to retire or die and when they aren't actively fighting new technology they are assuming that there is zero demand for any of it outside of Japan and refuse to export. When someone finally forces them to try, they do an extremely small trial and don't do anything to support it, and when it fails because a lack of support and lack of consumer knowledge they say they knew it was going to fail from the get go.

idk what they're called, but little bit of rice wrapped in nori filled with flying fish roe and a quail egg yolk cracked on top is bomb.

I have one of those in town but its 10 bucks for lunch. The quality is what you would expect but they go very light on the meat, heavy on the rice/sauces, and limit nigiri HEAVILY.

Inari and Shitake if you want to stay traditional but want something with taste. Nothing like veggies in soy sauce and sweet vineger to make veggie sushi a good choice and order it all the time as a side. Tamago also counts.

But fish wise I am gonna need to give it their own category of silver (meat and fat), white (pure fish meat and fatty.

Silver fish: I definitely like yellowtail.

White fish: I go for squid

Fatty Fish: Sockeye Salmon if casually ordering. But when I am at nice Bluefin tuna belly.

Shellfish: Urchin

So really, anything goes here. uni, saba, otoro, chutoro, hamachi, kampachi, aji, listen, if I had the time to memorise every fish I was eating, I wouldn't have the time to savour the flavour.

No. jap is not the same as calling a Caucasian white . It's like calling a Jew a kike... fucking uneducated nazi. It is one hundred percent derogatory

>>7251803

Give me a reasonable explanation about how "jap" is offensive and I'll never use it again. Please cite the opinions of actual Japanese people in your explanation.

Because the term was used in a demeaning manner in Anti-Japanese propaganda in America during WWII and Japanese encampment. Politically correct types have pushed against the use of Jap in the mainstream post-WWII because of that. Even English-language media in Japan does not shorten Japanese to Jap even though its most logical way to shorthand it. The politically correct way is to use "J", like J-pop.

>>7251819

I just asked my Japanese friend, and he doesn't understand why any Japanese would be offended by it. I'll trust the opinion of an actual Japanese person on the matter over the opinion of some non-Japanese SJWs.

>>7251824
Of course most in Japan would be oblivious. The term was imbued with derogatory in America, not in Japan. It's the Japanese-Americans that object to it's use. However, NHK in Japan would never consider it's because they have lots of Japanese-Americans and other foreign correspondents.

>>7251824
Most Japs also don't understand why the rest of the world considers their nation to be aggressors in WWII. Help your friend grow up.

>>7251843

I'm going to the yearly Japanese festival in the city near me next month. I'll ask the opinions of Japanese-Americans while I'm there. I won't be able to report my findings to you, but you'll be in my heart.

You need to learn how to stop thinking of everything in terms of how oppressive it is and start looking at intent.

There's really not much contempt aimed towards the Japanese from the English speaking world in the modern day. Almost every time you see see "jap" on the net, the poster is not expressing the idea that he hates the Japanese, he's simply abbreviating "Japanese". The term is not being used in a derogatory manner. In this usage, it's more like a nickname than a slur.

>>7252465
>Another white person telling minorities how they should feel about historically racist words
Asian people are finally starting to realize they shouldn't just "let it go" since it doesn't seem to help them much in the long run, just initially.

>>7252472

>another minority telling white people that their opinions don't matter, AKA trying to silence them

This is not equality. You are a hypocrite and a racist, and white people need to begin striking back at people like you.

>>7252472
>>7252483

So, here's a question: The Japanese word "gaijin" is in a similar boat. It can be a term that's just as cold and derogatory as it sounds, or it can be a casual term with no derogatory meaning.

Am I, as a white man, entitled to wander into Japan and demand that they stop using the word "gaijin"? Do I have a right to tell them what they're thinking when they use it, and to ignore anything that they have to say on the topic? I'm in a racial minority the minute that I step foot in Japan.

If you think that it's presumptuous for a white man to act that way in Japan, you have a racist double standard. If you think that it's justified, you're silencing the Japanese while claiming to fight for freedom and equality. Either way, it's bullshit. And so is this.

>>7252472
fuck off nigger

>>7252528
gaijin is just a contraction not a racist word you snownigger

>>7252528
ah but you see, as a white man you are always wrong and always the oppressor. even if that defies all evidence in a given situation, remember that as a white man you are inherently evil and deserve to be subjugated. haven't you been paying attention to the internet over the last 5 years?

>>7252541

Just like "jap"! Except when it's not, again, just like "jap".


>>7252542

White people really need to begin openly calling this out. We have no obligation to stay silent while people who claim to be fighting for freedom and equality try their hardest to take away our voice. On the contrary, we have an obligation to fight back.

>>7252542

Okay, you had a couple riots, and some people were wrongly convicted (supposedly). We'll pretend this is significant. It's where you think people are blaming this on white men that you lose me.

These are such isolated incidents. A guy shot a guy and people got mad. Protesters overreacted. An uncertain number of women lie sometimes. Some people are blaming other people.

Crime happens (and not just to white people) and life isn't always perfectly fair. I'm still not convinced there's any conspiracy behind all this, or that any of these things are related.

No mayonnaise please.

>>7223850
This is how they did it in the Edo period, uncultured gaijin. Everything after Meiji restoration has had the rotten hand of imperialist america influencing it, so it doesn't count as REAL culture.

>>7220343
Tuna is overpriced and overmemed. It's literally hunted to near extinction because people "gotta have that tuna sushi, senpai". Salmon is my preferred fish. A pink, marbled cut for the pink, marbled European.

>>7253745
Weeb, please get your head out of your ass. Imperialist America DID introduce and enforce that practice. Even then, the pop-culture you adore and wank over is all post-edo culture, so how can you say you love "Real," Japanese culture if you can no longer participate in it?
Not that the native populace would want you to anyway, you're a disgusting nerd to them, just as you are to us.

>>7252766

The problem is that these things are a part of a prominent culture. And not a fake culture like "rape culture", where feminists pretend that dudes are giving each other high fives after raping a girl so that they can act like this is systematic oppression.

Black kids who take their education seriously and have no intention of behaving like criminals get accused of being cowards and "acting white". I've seen this first hand. Within the inner city black community, there's a strong peer pressure to lead a criminal lifestyle. It stems from Malcolm X culture hypocrisy, where they want to completely reject the white community but also be accepted by the white community.

Women are encouraged to see men as dangerous and male sexuality as creepy, even when while they put women engaging in the same sorts of behaviors on a pedestal. If sexual assault were as common as feminism wanted it to be, this might be justified, but as it is, it's just anti-male fear mongering egged on by political arms dealers who profit from the conflict. Thankfully, this "women as perpetual victims" mentality is collapsing by itself to some degree, as women work to gain money and authority, but it does need a push from men if it's going collapse entirely, especially in regards to sex politics.

>>7219752
Any sushi with some quality salmon and none of that fucking mayo the nips always try to sneak in there.

>>7254528

And I suppose that getting more to your point, when problems brought about by these cultures arise, these communities never, ever point the fingers directly at themselves. It's always the white man.

They don't ask why cops feel the need to shoot first and ask questions later when dealing with the black community, or ask the white person why he or she crosses the street when a group of black men are approaching. They simply yell "racism".

They don't ask men why they aren't marrying. They simply chalk it up to men being selfish pieces of shit.

I don't even get how people eat more than like 3 pieces of sushi and still enjoy it.

I like the first couple pieces of sushi, but I don't enjoy a lot of them.

Yes, and that makes it a substance called wasabi and emulating wasabi but not the actual product. It is inaccurate to call it actual wasabi.

It's comparable to the faux crab that people use in California rolls. It's a processed stick of multiple kinds of fish labelled as crab. That doesn't make it real crab even though it's just called crab on most menus.

Does wasabi go with any other food or just sushi?

Is there a reason why the shrimp, the best piece, comes in a very small number on any sushi plate that even has them?
