Sheer insanity (incredible insanity), but honestly just how much could that possibly add to the taste. Seriously, in my eyes, that ANYONE is able to afford such a thing speaks to the inequity in life.

That is neat, but I also question how much flavor all those detailed steps like raking the sand at the bottom of the grill into a pretty pattern makes! (if you look the sand was raked before the wood was put in.).
Is this a ceremonial preparation method like the tea thing? My inlaws lived on the water and thier neighbor would throw every eel he caught into a pot of spaghetti sauce. Chris |

So much care put into the killing, preparing and cooking.
The air he uses is to blow out the spinal cord, killing it quickly and keeping it from flopping around. See: http://www.cookingissues.com/2012/06...-ike-jime-man/ That's where I got these videos from. Explains how when fish get stressed or handled roughly there's damage to their muscles, which is to be avoided. Have a look, very interesting stuff. This whole cookingissues blog is really well done. |

Ayu done with typical haute cuisine level care, meticulous.
Pity he didn't pierce the brain first and save the fish unnecessary suffering and increase the eating quality.
