Lol XD. Ours has a bit more variety but not like thier Walmart I think the demographics dictates what Walmart sells in the area.

[@jessilaine7999]

That’s crazy! I live in the tiniest town in the Texas panhandle. We have to drive an an hour and a half to get to any department store, mall, health food store, ethnic grocery store, or to see a decent doctor. We only got a Super Walmart about 5 years ago. But everything he showed we have - including the fancy sushi rice he didn’t buy, nori sheets, a million different sauces, and even gluten-free ramen cups! We have no Asian population in our little town. Walmart should standardize their products. I think that’s why so many in this country have such poor diets and are missing vital nutrients. Things like sushi, stir fry, and a lot of rice-based dishes are very healthy for you and extremely economical to make. But if you can’t buy the ingredients and can’t afford to eat out at restaurants with a healthy menu (or have to travel to do so), then what can anyone do in that situation?

If there's enough complaints about that from customers, they'll be FORCED to upgrade the quality, because they risk customers leaving to a competitor like HEB or Albertsons Kroger etc. Who knows. Can also be reported for improper quality and they "may" be shut down if inspector flags them. Customers can do quite a LOT to a company BELEIVE it or not, just have to get more than just 1 or 2 complaints.

@@DiariesofaMasterSushiChef Hi, Hiroyuki Terada... I love making sushi too.... Good job Chef

[@cademancaden]

Yes, agreed!

[@IQzminus2]

The problem with sushi is that because it's so minimal. Both in the amounts of ingredients used and the cooking method. The ingredients you do use really matter. If you use a really nice quality fish, it really shines and makes a big difference, and switching to lower quality really affects the end result. So making good budget sushi is incredibly hard. The best idea I think is to switch to cheaper ingredients, but that is still of good quality. Like Tamago. A well cooked egg is amazing, no matter how cheap or expensive the egg is. It's all about technique Simple cucumber maki, can still be amazing and super good quility on a budget. Vegtables and cooked ingredients work better for budget than uncooked fish, I think. So seeing more budget sushi would be intresting. because that is a crazy big challenge.

[@madthumbs1564]

@@IQzminus2 You cannot make typical grocery store eggs taste near as good as eggs I've gotten from a farm that had the chickens in their yard. Just making sushi for yourself saves a lot of money.

[@IQzminus2]

​@@madthumbs1564 It's entirely possible that there is a bigger between eggs in other parts of the world. I live in Sweden which have the strictest animal welfare legislation in the world. So maybe that's affecting the eggs I have available to me. Because those laws definitely affect how hens and chickens are treated. Sweden is considered salmonella free, and eating raw eggs considered entirely safe. And giving antibiotics in any form of animal feed is illegal. All those things are quite unique, with only a few countries in the world sharing the same conditions. Here there is no notable taste difference between mass produced cheap eggs and eggs that come from local farms. But if the egg comes from a different breed of chicken, it will be quite different. But that's true no matter if it's mass produced or not. I buy my eggs from a local farm anyway, because I know those chickens are treated well and I rather support a small farm than a mass producers, but yeah the eggs aren't of any notable better quality.

[@cswann8]

7:45 Holy shit I was thinking "a person would have to be out of their mind to eat Tilapia from Wal-Mart raw". Thank GAWD he cooked it.

[@murraypendergrass8077]

The tilapia was marked 'Fresh, Never Frozen' - No sushi should ever be eaten without being frozen first, thats how you kill parasites. So, from Walmart or not - that was not to be eaten raw.

[@aaronjimz]

@@murraypendergrass8077 are you sure pre-freezing gets rid of parasites? I remember a video from Hiro where he was filleting a salmon and unfortunately found worms in it.

[@ddk9467]

@@aaronjimz That's why you should get farmed salmon for sushi. While I get the moral reasons for wild-caught, it just isn't safe. Wild fish are exposed to many more parasites and that then farmed fish which are exposed to almost no parasites as they are held in containment areas and fed food pellets. In fact, that's also the reason the elderly are advised by doctors to only eat farmed fish. The bacteria on the surface thing is still a potential issue, although minimal and basically no risk for anyone that is healthy and not a young child or old. However, this concern can be alleviated by just searing the salmon for 15ish seconds on each side at very high heat with a little oil. Inside will be raw still, and it will also have a different, nice taste on the outside, especially if you use sesame oil mixed with a neutral oil like canola.

[@maltalented]

@@murraypendergrass8077 to be honest even if the fish is frozen i really don't trust industrial fish to be completely clean-even if it is free of parasites. heavy metals and grime and straight up dirt can be in those things if you don't wash and cook it. if i were to eat raw fish from walmart, i'd probably pasteurize the hell out of it with high power lasers before thinking of eating it. so glad it was cooked.

[@murraypendergrass8077]

@@aaronjimz To be honest, no I don't know. I am not an expert I just know from talking with my fish mongers that the fish for sashimi needs to be frozen first as a safety precaution.

Raw rice and crap fish is worth $62? Hiro fans are delusional

[@cuross01]

@@greatmaddyave well, not really. He didn't use the salmon. Take off 25 dollars and that leaves about 37 dollars. And don't you have mayo, corn starch, flour, rice, and eggs already stocked in your pantry and fridge? Take off another seven for 30. You might also have vinegar, sugar, salt, and soy sauce in your pantry so there's that. He also said they didn't use all the tilapia and fake lobster so if you were conservative in building your rolls, you could get about two of those specific types of sushi in. Now it comes to about 15 for a single roll with enough stuff left over to make other kinds of sushi. From ingredients only in Walmart. And suboptimal rice. Ultimately, if you only accounted for ingredients used completely in these rolls, only about 18 dollars was spent for two rolls with everything else going into the pantry or fridge.

[@greatmaddyave]

@@cuross01 That's a stretch and even if I had the ingredients it still carries a cost. The whole premise of your argument doesn't allow for disagreement on this point. But I highly disagree. This i wholey disagree with your breakdown

[@cuross01]

@@greatmaddyave you may disagree, but I wouldn't go to the store to buy a new bottle of mayo every time I wanted to make a sandwich.

@@cuross01 but you did spend money somewhere sometime for that mayo. You don't just get to factor it outside of price. And you have to get a different kind of mayo.

a cheap alternative in Walmart is smoked salmon. it is delicious and I can make 10 rolls of sushi out of 16ounces. but i make them smaller. I use surimi and its about 4 bucks the smoked salmon is 4 for a small and 6 for a large. I use blue plate mayo and canned tuna for tuna avocado roll. Cucumber is cheap and a lovely addition as well as carrot. I never spend more than $20 on ingredients and it lasts me about 3 weeks. It costs about $50 to get set up with a sushi set, that is rolling matt, onigiri molds, 100 or 50 seaweed wrappers and rice vinegar

[@MidnightatMidian]

Smoked salmon can be a nice alternative, I've done it sometimes, but beware!!! The First time I did it it was way too salty!!! If you're used to regular sushis be careful cause the amount of salt is way much higher in smoked salmon. The trick is to put like no salt in the rice, and using cucumber with your smoked salmon sushis help a lot.

[@BGing_Foodie]

Tips for using non-sushi rice: avoid basmati (Indian rice is drier and less sticky), and rinse long grain/jasmine rice less! The cloudy water is actually starch, which you want to retain to make the rice more sticky. I normally rinse jasmine rice for non-sushi purposes twice, but try only once, or not at all for sushi purposes. The water to rice ratio depends on type of rice, batch, and method of cooking (stove top, rice cooker, instant pot), but long grain rice tends to need more water than short grain rice. Drier rice is less sticky. If it's a bit dry after cooking, you can add a bit more water and cook covered on low heat for a little while longer. Hopefully all of those little tid bits are helpful :)

@@eugeniovincenzo1621 I've learned some people in life get a free pass. People see their mistakes as "wins". These people all share similar qualities. Button up turned nose, round face, big cheeks and squinty eyes. Anyone else notice this? I mean this dude messed up pretty much every part of this video and people are praising him. Even the motivation for the video. They spent $62 bucks to make a single roll. A single crappy roll.

[@dylanadams9465]

@@greatmaddyave I feel like your criticism would be a little more meaningful and persuasive if you didn't make it sound like you were invalidating the entire video because the person who did the work is Asian. By which I mean, No, I haven't noticed that, because I'm not looking for it. I guess some people - they all share similar qualities (dogwhistles, subtle undermining of genuine achievements, double standards, tribalism) - are looking for reasons to generalize huge groups of people and devalue their work. As it turns out, when they turn the focus on racial features, all their other arguments are thrown into question because someone's biological makeup isn't a good basis for any kind of civil discussion.

[@greatmaddyave]

@@dylanadams9465 What are you talking about? How racist are YOU that "squinty eyes" automatically insinuates asian? Plenty of germans have sqinty eyes. -- Old people and people of all races. One of my best friends, growing up, was white and from New Zeland and people used to say he alwaya looked high. He also pronounced "Garage" oddly. Incredibly racist behavior, and frankly im appauld at your lack of self awareness. Now guess whos arguments come into question? You clearly jump to conclusions. It would probably be 'best practices' to adopt the philosophy, going forward, that you just MIGHT have misinterpreted the point. It's either that or continue thinking you're smart. My guess is good ol' cognitive dissonance will kick in and you'll just be another 'Dunning-kruger effect' statistic.

[@hrhamada1982]

one thing though, as a person that used to be a support manager at walmart. they let the perishable products such as meat, fish, and wall deli, sit for LONG LONG lengths of time before they refrigerate or freeze them. Not to mention perishable go-backs. At a supermarket like Albertsons Safeway or Kroger, if there is a perishable go back it is taken care of IMMEDIATELY. At walmart a perishable go back sits for about 4-6 hours before a CSM calls for departments to do go backs. I HIGHLY recommend NOT using walmart for meat, deli, dairy and eggs! Canned products, fine. products like bread, chips, soda, etc, fine, but NOT meat, fish, eggs, sandwich meats, cheese, etc Surprisingly he used long grain rice. Most walmarts have medium grain rice.

[@lilymn1382]

HR Hamada thats why as a supervisor at a supermarket I always encourage the cashiers to put it back fast or to ask me to put it back I won’t mind especially if it’s ice cream !

[@clackox9412]

dont worry, the amount of chemicals in it.. keep it fresh

[@Halinspark]

True, the returns tend to sit for hours at a time before anybody deals with them. HOWEVER, at least at all the Walmarts I've worked at, we don't worry about perishables because we don't put them back. Meat, dairy, and produce get thrown out when people decide they dont want them because we can't guarantee how long they've been out.

They must really change their stock based on the area. I'm not a snob or anything.. I just never went to my closest walmart because it was farther than 5 or 6 other grocery stores, but when I did - Oh WOW their meat and seafood all look excellent and the Asian section was huge. Everything was cheaper than at Giant too. I'm totally going back there more. I was also surprised at the empty shelves comments above; Mine was in perfect shape. (I live in Northern VA, near D.C.)

Thank you for making this. I always have to use long grain rice because my local grocery stores don’t have short grain. I was always discouraged when my rolls would break apart so easily, but now I know that long grain isn’t ideal.

for salmon, you can probably buy packaged smoked salmon slices. normally excellent breakfast material on muffins with a poached egg, but, also excellent in sushi rolls when you cannot afford/find sushi-grade fresh salmon :) as 'fresh salmon' at the supermarket goes, i don't really trust that uncooked in terms of freshness/parasites/etc although it is probably ok

[@purplealice]

Hiro, almost any supermarket in the US will have things you can use to make sushi - rice, soy sauce, fresh fish, vegetables. There are so many ethnic groups in the US, and stores need to sell "exotic" foods to meet the demands. And meat, fish, eggs, and vegetables are foods everybody wants. It's fun to see you make sushi using lobster, truffles, and filet mignon - but inexpensive ingredients from the supermarket can taste just as delicious, when prepared skilfully. Nobody eats filet mignon every day - sometimes they want macaroni and cheese :-)

[@purplealice]

If a person is willing to learn some basics, they can make a tasty, nourishing meal out of simple and relatively inexpensive ingredients. I stir-fry chicken and tofu very often, because it's easy to prepare quickly, and both chicken breasts and tofu can be seasoned with all sorts of different flavors. I'm going to use fried tofu puffs from the Asian market, with a lot of ginger and hot pepper, for dinner tonight :-)

Chef, I have some experience with that brand of rice. Living with such a big family and a low budget we used it very often. A great ratio would be two cups of water to one part rice. Hope That's helps for next time. Great video and thanks again for Sharing

Long grain rice is supposed to be dry and each grain separate from each other, like basmati rice! Sushi rice is sticky because its very glutinous.
