I'm starting to hate your videos. Why do I have to watch this every time I'm starving? As a broke college student I just wanna die. Kidding, I love this! Someday I'll be able to cook a lot and it's a good thing I can always go back to this channel to get some delish recipes!

[@johnandreo]

[@CookingwithChefDai]

[@milio7892]

[@annearaullo2917]

Could you please do a segment about the types of cookware you use & why? Any tips on features to look for, brands you like, different price points - when to spend, when to economize. I'd also like to know about your cutting boards and utensils as well as any cleaning and sanitizing methods you favor. Thanks.

[@svetlana-1970]

[@glowble]

[@CookingwithChefDai]

[@geniuschen902074]

The fish is such a beauty.

[@CookingwithChefDai]

I agree. Was a pleasure to make this video....

[@clemecleme8208]

I just had this fish yesterday in fried form as well as curry form the Indian way. It was delicious and had a mild sweetish taste.

[@CookingwithChefDai]

Sorry for the late response. Sounds great

[@mrbluenun]

Hi Chef, Can you explain how and where to find the samphire and how to prep it please?

[@BLHz8blah1]

I hate asking if there are replacements for ingredients but this fish isn't easy to access where I am from are there others I may use? I know it won't be the same, but something close to it?

[@zadinal]

I think Halibut and maybe Tilapia would be good substitutes

[@CookingwithChefDai]

as zadinal said....also I would suggest turbot, red snapper, plaice or lemon sole perhaps......

[@BLHz8blah1]

Thank you!

[@BLHz8blah1]

Thank you!

[@hamiltonlong5917]

Looks yummy! Is there a Bentley of the sea? I also feel bad for the person watching him eat right in front of him

[@bg357wg]

Codfish?

[@cloudnaeris2672]

why does unsalted butter help the fish cook at a higher temperature? 4:30

[@cloudnaeris2672]

what?

[@cloudnaeris2672]

damn i thought it was just a dank meme and i didn't get it :C

[@Anonymous1233211]

all i know is adding salt draw out the water of the onion and usually chef put a pinch of salt for quick caramelization or quick browning.. not sure if unsalted butter cook at a higher temperature

[@ragnarokrock]

+Hector P LMAO!!

[@ckemimire3657]

youre awesome chef and talented af ...pls reply us when you'll be very famous

[@TheGizmoGarage]

Can you use the skin to make wallets?

[@brianc5691]

Fantastic recipe...would crisping the skin then slicing it thinly on the rice add anything ?

[@CookingwithChefDai]

I think it would add alot of flavour and texture. Great idea Brian!!!!

[@amenchoi7797]

can u make a video of oknomiyaki?

[@CookingwithChefDai]

I will try and make that one next if I get my hands on the ingredients......

[@aayushs.taehyung4631]

But chef, do we skin the other side too?

[@katew.561]

Hi Chef! Love your videos :) I would be very grateful if you could teach me how to shred cabbage nice and thinly like used so often to accompany Japanese dishes, thank you!

[@AidaMay]

That's a lot of butter! Looks delicious.

[@mrmastaofdesasta6994]

Yay, new Video! Hello Chef Dai, Could you make videos about Miso soup, Ramen or Yakisoba in the future? I would really like to see how you make these. It doesn't need to be right now, but sometimes, maybe? Keep up the good work, your videos are amazing!

[@CookingwithChefDai]

I would love to make a Ramen series one day. I will try and make a yakisoba and miso soup video soon for you Anton.. Thanks for the support mate!

[@mrmastaofdesasta6994]

+Cooking with Chef Dai Oh My, I feel honored. Then, I shall look forward to it!

[@MrBobWareham]

Damn you I am now hungry that looked so good but loved it any way your a good cook

[@davidstorton910]

Mate NO ONE can cook fish as good as the Japanese, that looked really brilliant

[@CookingwithChefDai]

Thanks mate!!!

[@galangbang]

Hi Chef. I've watched pretty much all your videos. I'm a fan. Can you go do a video on chashu pork?

[@MacMillian]

oooohhhh that skin coming off So good

[@bear8495]

hello Chef Dai ,can you make a video about the most common japanese hot pot ?

[@antonchigurh3226]

Chef Dai, What a splendid preparation. Thank you 🙏 for sharing. I hope that you’re doing well, and that you will post again soon; it’s been over a year since your last video. Cheers 🥂

[@zwordsman]

I'm curious.. those bones are easy to eat off of.. but.. do you flip it over and eat the bottom side as well? and was it gutted? Hmm. I dont' think we can get that fish here in the US.

[@berthiga6814]

Great! whatever you cook looks really good. Omakase?

[@Anthony-ze1vf]

looks good

[@CookingwithChefDai]

Thanks Mark

[@paulalberding943]

Hi Chef Dai. Can you show us how you cook beef sukiyaki?

[@tielojongmans3826]

Wow, this looks so delicious! Do you have a restaurant, so I can come and have this?

[@BlueDragon1504]

I find these thing litturely everywhere in my nabour town. Doesn't matter how many restaurants I walk into, its always on the menu. Love them tho so I suppose there is no problem ;)

[@kachunhoi292]

Great job Chef Dai! I love this fish so much! As I've eaten Cantonese food since childhood, my mum usually steam it and finish with some Cantonese style soy sauce. Always juicy, soft and delicious. I really want to try your method but I couldn't find it in the local market...... (I'm in Sydney now) By the way, we call this fish "龍脷" in Cantonese, which translated to English as "the tongue of the dragon"!

[@CookingwithChefDai]

Mum's food is the best isn't it! tongue of the dragon, really cool name lol Thanks for sharing your lovely comment with me....

[@abbu_k]

did you cook it with the guts?

[@oyamonaca]

konichiwa. you can also put the lemon segments in the butter at the end to boost their flavor...we used to do that in France in the restaurant i ve been working in...great video. i m doing some on facebook, could you check it up in order to give me some advices for the videos please? ludo tu chef en casa .thanks

[@caileelewis7878]

Can you peel the skin like that with any fish? 🐟

[@caileelewis7878]

if so I learned how to skin a fish without a knife!

[@jc3944]

+Cailee Lewis it's very uncommon to be able to do this to fish, this is the only fish I know of where you don't need a knife to fillet the fish.

[@bigkahona8444]

What about the insides of the fish?

[@TheRivieraKid]

Actually heres something i want to know. do you own the restaurant you film in, or are you just the head chief there?

[@diulzasantos3917]

In Brazil has quite the expensive price, very good.

[@CookingwithChefDai]

I love eating dover sole so much!

[@supersendojarren]

can these fish swim? or do they crawl on the sea floor

[@CookingwithChefDai]

I believe they immerse themselves in the muddy seabed but I assume they can swim too....talented buggers.....

[@MuMu124]

Dann that looks good

[@songfuny1236]

#chefdai do you have a restaurant?

[@abdukerimz]

Can u make some video of knife

[@collinyan3638]

oh,I used to had this fish almost every day when I was in China.

[@courtneydominic7802]

that looks so amazing Chef! I'd love to give that a try some time. any suggestions if one is not able to get their hands on any variety of sole? is this preparation very type specific?

[@CookingwithChefDai]

Thanks Courtney! I'm sure any type of sole will be fine to use. A larger sole may require frying on both sides, then putting the pan directly into an oven and cooking it a further few minutes to ensure it's cooked through.

[@michaeldipaola1313]

Another way to skin it is dip it it very briefly in scalding hot water. After that you can pull the skin right off.

[@AlqGo]

Who holds the camera?

[@CookingwithChefDai]

my wonderful wife does, she's the star of the show!!!!

[@ancbi]

+Cooking with Chef Dai Just make sure your wife is not hungry while you're having foodgasm on camera! Because, if it were me, i wouldn't be able hold the camera straight watching you eat!

[@fdd4708]

why do i need to take off its skin? wouldn't it be easier to fry with skin on?

[@princetahir5767]

how this can be Bad,you make it and taste it and saying expression it is nice,how if it turns bad.Every cook says like you but reality is different.Thanks.will try this in Japan and Aussy country.

[@speedtribejp]

それは日本の鰈と同じですか。洋食にしても美味そうでうすね。

[@Limezz4]

How come you are never att the restaurant kitchen anymore?

[@TheRivieraKid]

Hooray im in the early comments for once!!!!!!

[@maftj1246]

Cool video :^) im back u saw comment on ur last video ? :DD lg

[@maftj1246]

ur quallity is amazing ..

[@CookingwithChefDai]

Cheers Timo, hope you had a great holiday mate!!!!

[@studentdeljuego]

Meat on the fins are the best.

[@gwddmt1]

Classic suggestion after having professionally prepared and cooked Sole Meunière table side for years.... Peel the skin from the tail to the head after a small slit through skin at the tail then add a dab of kosher salt on both side of the slit (for finger press friction/grabbing).... and pull the skin to the head in half the time it took in this video. Also... After turning the fish after cooking the first side at about 1 and 1/2 minutes of cooking the other side.... you need to lift the tail end up out of the heat and put a raw 1/4 thick slice of carrot or potato or in this case a purple Japanese sweet potato under the thinner tapering tail end... to keep/shield the pans heat from over cooking the thinner flesh.... if it goes over 140 F/60 C the tail end is way over cooked in relationship to the meatier thicker shoulder/head end of the fish that has not reached 140 F 'doneness.'

[@Cansif]

the music at the end tho

[@slycep7304]

reminds me of glenn

[@rostfleck79]

In Germany, we call this fish "sea tongue".

[@CookingwithChefDai]

cool. If you look at the comment made by Ka Chun Hoi in this comments section, he said that the Cantonese name translated is Dragons tongue....interesting.

[@kailanofficial]

1:30 he didn’t ask for consent

[@connerosrs226]

Why wouldn’t you skin the dover with a knife? Also it’s weird for the last 2 minutes of the video I just watched you eat...

[@Kraken0684]

Nice video! Really wish you would use a knife instead of your finger to skin the fish. Also, as you are devouring the fish, care to share at any point with your wife since she's filming eh?

[@Sirkingx]

MMmmmmmm

[@car001]

I love you รักนะ

[@fishingparadisecalifornia7764]

For a saltwater fish that smells very sea like.. it's rather bland compared to pacific halibut

[@ejpadua6182]

Wow, all those colors.. Food porn!!!

[@CookingwithChefDai]

thanks again EJ!

[@cjoemex]

never seen that fish in america.... i guess ill stick with fish sticks 8(

[@rommelcruz3651]

they are actually common and cheap in oriental stores. they just call it flounder.

[@rdc501]

Idiot. They are common and cheap at any store.

[@rommelcruz3651]

+rdc501 whatever you say ass wipe!

[@jc3944]

+Rommel Cruz flounder are very similar to dover sole, flounder get a fair bit bigger than these, and have completely different head and mouths. You have to fillet flounder, because the skin won't come off without pulling off the meat.

[@rommelcruz3651]

+Fishes worst enemy thanks for the info.

[@brynmiller7547]

Should skin fish from the tail to the head. Much quicker than his faffing about.

[@toshikokojima5539]

No need knife!Are you Japanese or chinese ?

[@filippodkulabovic3146]

Honestly I kinda feel bad for the fish

[@tonyk4321]

dont make this silly faces, its just pan fried fish in flour, nothing spesial about it

[@mrpopo4976]

Tony K how old are you? And also Special*

[@KevinT318]

[@mrpopo4976]

[@heavenly_girl]

I bought a fish but I don't know how to cook? I bought a fish which is big and I still don't understand how to cook?

[@CookingwithChefDai]

[@heavenly_girl]

+Cooking with Chef Dai I don't know the name. Big but not too big and bony

[@heavenly_girl]
