Training myself to cut fish in the Eastern style. Getting better but I can't do it blindfolded yet.
Enjoy.

Another cool vid, thanks.
Nice vid! But why are you removing the grey section of the filet just inside the skin (I'm sure it has specific name...)? When I make skin on salmon this is some of my favorite parts of the fish! Is it just for presentation?
When I was working in the Bay Area and doing the same kind of fillets, the dark section would be the only thing left on the plate 9 time out of 10. So I always thinned that part down if to thick.
Presentation for color yes but also a few other reasons. I don't like the texture, I feel it's pasty or chalky on farm raised salmon. Also it's where you'll find the more fishy odor that some find offensive especially on salmon. I leave it on with skin on presentations like wild king salmon, red snapper and wild striped bass. But any time the skin comes off, ahi tuna, grouper etc, I like to remove it.
OOOO perdy. I'd been waiting for this ever since I saw the first video of this knife.
I do also like the salmon skin and grey, fatty layer, but I realize that I'm probably in the minority. How where the fillets prepared?
EDIT: oh, didnt see your above post (page wasnt refreshed). That's an interesting observation about the farm-raised stuff. I'd always avoided it for other reasons (higher mercury levels) but that's good to know.
I like the grey layer, too. Plus, I was saddened to see the head get ditched - there's a lot of good meat in and around the head. So... with that, I think I'm in an even smaller minority than you, Justin![]()
