GRAPHIC!!! - How to fillet a fish - Sea bream - Chef Dai demonstrates how to fillet a Sea bream using traditional Japanese techniques.
(WARNING - if you're at all squeamish and uncomfortable with the sight of blood and intestines, please ignore from 2:21 - 4:38)
The black sea bream, known as "kurodai" in Japanese, is an extremely popular fish in Japan and its larger "red" cousin called "madai" is widely regarded as Japan's King of fish.
During the New Year and on happy events such as weddings or the birth of a baby, salt-grilled sea bream is a special traditional fare throughout the country.
Thank you for watching and please don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have!

I ordered two of these based on the reviews. kzbin.infoUgkxqmKabisEv81ul5v7OhvVxxOpt2CJruI- Received them on time and they look good. I really like the handle on these knives as they feel good in my hand. I'm giving them 4 stars on look and feel, but have not had the chance to put them to the test yet. I mostly fish for catfish and can hopefully try them out in the next few days. If they hold an edge throughout a limit of catfish, they'll be worth another star.Update...I used the 9" strong and the 9" fillet on a mess of catfish. I did put a sharpening on these before I started. I want a razor edge to fillet fish but they weren't quite that sharp. The people who gave these knives crappy reviews and said they were sending them back was because they weren't razor sharp. So what, do they not have a knife sharpener?? Good grief! I mean you have to sharpen any knife from time to time.I personally like them and am pleased with them. If you're too lazy to sharpen a knife then hire someone to clean your fish lol.I've never bought a knife in my life that would shave hair right out of the box. Don't be afraid to purchase the knives. They're pretty nice in my opinion.

RedTwoSB .....Nope, not weird at all! Look up the term ASMR and read the definition. I can see how this would fit into that concept. I got ASMR from his pointing at the fish and cutting, because the cutting was smoothly done.

Such a joy to watch. A few observations: 1. Impeccably clean kitchen/equipment, tells you how to identify a fresh fish, BTW the proper way to clean a fish is with LOTS of water 2. Chef is using a deba knife,best for filleting fish,and he is wiping it to prevent rusting 3. Calm demeanor, no yelling/slamming/clanging, no weird showing off 4. Detailed and easy to follow explanation 5. Lovely voice Why this this guy not have more followers? Please make more videos!

nice instructional video, bud. and a nice fish. haven't tried it (not a common find in the USA) but the meat on those filets looks like it'd be delicious! and to those reading the comments the trick with the skewers is a nice touch, but not essential. I use my finger to clean that part out. and the back of my fingernail ( note I said the back.. don't want to scrape at it and get it under my fingernail) but I'm sure it makes it easier.
