GRAPHIC!!! - How to fillet a fish - Sea bass - Japanese technique - すずきのさばき方
Chef Dai demonstrates how to fillet a Sea bass using traditional Japanese techniques.
(WARNING - if you're at all squeamish and uncomfortable with the sight of blood and intestines, please ignore from 1:44 - 2:53)
The Sea bass, known as "suzuki" in Japanese, is widely eaten across Japan and can be prepared in a number of different ways.
We would recommend using a scaler to scale off the fish if you have one. Chef Dai couldn't find it one at the restaurant on this particular day........... investigations are ongoing ; )
Thank you for watching and please don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have!

    Wow i am surprised to find someone who is japanese and talks without accent, especially british accent! Lovin' it!

    This and your other fillet videos are great! Super informative and great for a beginner into seafood, but also not condescending at all either. Thank you, Chef!
  • Glad you didn't remove scales and gut it....while it's ALIVE...like so many old fashioned Japanese sushi chefs. Senseless torture. Your video was great. Thank you.
  • Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for the clear demonstration.

    Just one hour ago a neighbour presented us with a sea bass caught this morning in Kanazawa. After our disastrous attempt to gut and fillet a buri last year I went to Youtube and found your site. The reult two fillets not quite in your elegant manner but for us successful. One fillet has been wrapped in kobu seaweed for sashimi tomorrow and the other fillet for frying. Thank you for such a clear demonstration. One last point, With a perfect English accent you had to have lived and been educated in England. Congratulations.

    I know when my Sea Bass is fresh, Its a gift from the sea when I catch one. Last week I had a lovely 47cm fish, pan fried it was fantastic. Thanks for the great video.
