Dry Aged Tuna Sushi ($4,000!!)

Bluefin tuna is a staple in the world of sushi. Perfectly balanced and melt in your mouth, a fresh piece of Bluefin is hard to beat. Then, there’s dry aged tuna… which is in a world of its own.
The most significant improvement was texture. Bluefin tuna (especially the lean “Akami”) can sometimes be chewy. I was shocked to find that even pieces with many white fibers, disintegrated the moment they touched my mouth.
Flavor came next. With dry aged beef, we expect “nutty” or even “blue cheesy” notes. This was different. Instead of a flavor change, it was more of a flavor enhancement. As I mention in the video, it tasted like tuna in its truest form.
I want to give a huge thank you to Liwei (dry_aged_fish_guy on IG) . His guidance through this process is the only reason I was able to make it happen. He has a saying: “Fresh is boring”. It took 4 weeks of work for me to finally understand what that means.

Yeah, Toro is really good stuff. I’ve never had Otoro, which I’ve heard is the best, but Chutoro is an amazing experience if you’re into sushi. Tastes more buttery than fishy and it’s super tender so it stays together when you pick it up but falls apart easily in your mouth.
