Explaining fish while filleting itfrom @omaweii

[01]

Overview

The creator, a chef, demonstrates the process of filleting a whole Buri (Japanese Amberjack). While performing the skilled knife work, he provides a voiceover explaining that Buri is the mature, wild-caught version of the fish, unlike the younger, farmed Hamachi. He concludes by highlighting that this maturity results in a richer, more complex flavor that melts with umami.

  5. 5

    The Sensory Payoff
