now now, gook is a korean slur. I understand though, gook sounds good and there's really no great slur for japanese people in english. Zipperhead maybe? Three syllables isn't very catchy though. two or less for a good slur I think

Any restaurant with a good reputation is going to make people stage and do grunt work before sticking them on the line. Jiro is a meme because of how far he takes it, but people forget that there's only like 4 cooks in the restaurant, and he's there every day, so getting someone to actually prepare the food is a life or death situation for the business. It seems weird if you've never been in the food industry and/or aren't a weeb.

Most normal people fucking love sushi, and if you've ever had sushi more than half a dozen times in your life you'd know that the quality between different places can be like night and day. That said, the subtext of the documentary is literally about Nip autism, but I don't understand how that's a criticism of the food.

Zipperhead is also a slur stemming specifically from the Korean war.

I think the greatest slur of all is symbolic, here. The disrespect of not even bothering to separate the delicate ethnic and cultural differences between all of these slinky eyed chinks is the real slur.

>>16308286
I feel like if it's a matter of preserving the business, the expediency of cross-training your cooks to carry on without you present is a worthwhile endeavor, so you don't have to close down the whole damn place if you tripped in the shower.

Unless it's a "sEcReT mEtHoDs" thing - like oh no, noone else can ever know how I prepare my tuna!! I always scoff at those types. Unless it's for mass-production, noone imitating you should be a threat to a naturally successful business. The avenues for success lie within the work ethnic and approach the owner takes to their business - not how much kombu you put in your dashi. It's why I share my recipes freely - yeah dude, maybe you can make this thing after you take photos of our cookbook and no call no show, but you're still not me

The chef I learned the most from always laughed at people having "secret recipes", and would write out a recipe for a sauce or whatever anytime a customer asked (if he wasn't too busy). Most recipes don't mean shit if you can't cook, because of that little caveat at the end that says, "season to taste". Having a good palate, lots of experience, and just being quick on the uptake will trump the best recipe book (or youtube video).

The quality of sushi is almost entirely determined by the quality of the ingredients, not how precise or imprecise the chef slices the ingredients.

I grew up in Northern California where sushi and Asian food in general was plentiful and delicious, now I live in a small town in far in-land Texas. I have a higher end grocery store that sells 7/10 tasting sushi and sashimi that varies in appearance between 4-8, yet every sushi restaurant in town sells 9/10 appearance sushi that gets maybe a 4 in taste at best.

I get that it’s a cultural difference and I guess Japanese culture places a lot of emphasis on the honor and pride of the chef but in practical terms the quality of the ingredients determines the quality of the product, assuming the chef is at least halfway competent.

I mostly agree with you, if you have good fish and are somewhat competent, you'll have decent sushi

However, what makes a good sushi place consistently good is not only the access to good fish, it's how well they can make the rice. I have had great fish on mediocre rice, and it does make a difference. the fish is the star sure, but if the backup singer is shit then it kinda ruins the concert. Sushi chefs have more control over the quality of the rice, and if the rice sucks, then they suck. this is why traditional places make apprentices work on rice for so long
