🥒 ABOUT BEFRS:
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but currently call Vietnam home. I’ve been living in Asia for 10 years and started making food and travel videos to document my experiences. I travel to different parts of the world, hunting down and documenting the most unique food each country has to offer.
If you see any factual food errors in my videos, please feel free to politely let me know in the comments. I'm a huge fan of trying different, interesting foods in each country. My show is from a Western point of view, but more importantly, MY point of view. It is not meant to offend any person or culture.

Flounder (flat fish) sushi trivia 1. If the underside of the fish skin is white then it is wild caught, otherwise it is farmed. Depending on seasons wild caught flounder tastes better than farmed. You don't have that problem with farmed fish. It all depends on the fat in the fish. 2. Flounder meat taste very bland(like rubber) and chewy when cut alive. So, sashimi cuts would need to be thinner. 3. When flounder meat goes an aging process, meat develops flavor and softens. Then, sashimi cuts can be thicker and perfect for sushi. 4. Too much aging would start breaking the structure of the flesh. Too little aging would not develop flavor. 5, If a sushi chef makes a sushi with unaged flounder then you can skip that restaurant for good. But it's okay with sashimi. 6. There are cultures, like S.Korea who likes unaged live cuts specifically for the chewy taste with added chilly sauce but that isn't sushi.

Let's find powerful aromatic sauces and different cooking methods and make this fish taste a lot better. Two different methods. Each has its pros & cons

[@superjamesworld]

Vietnamese way for me. I've had plenty of sashimi and just prefer fish grilled or fried.

[@watdatdoo]

That is partially true, the flounder looking fish is very sought for, even though it's meat is thin, it is white, flaky and naturally sweet, and normally people don't pick the biggest one. More like a medium small one so they can fry it whole and it's just a giant fish cracker. If you eat these fish, it must be just out the water. Asians don't agree on the word "fresh" if it's otherwise.
