    Sushi grade salmon seared for a few seconds is delicious.

    (Take a chunk of salmon loin. Cut in finger thick slices. Sear in oil/butter for 5-10 seconds on each side. Enjoy the combination of fried and raw salmon.)

      I’ve had sushi where the chef played a torch over it for a few seconds. Very good.

    No way in hell I’m eating that salmon raw if it hasn’t been flash frozen first (which, I hope, the chef has done since she paid a lot of money for it). Anisakis is something you don’t want to fuck around with.

      Yeah, I’m pretty sure it’s illegal to sell raw salmon to be eaten raw unless it has been frozen to kill parasites. So because it’s been frozen, a chef bragging about how it was caught the same day would just be misleading people. It can be kept frozen for some time and still maintain the same amount of freshness for the person eating.

    I’d like to imagine this interaction continues. She keeps ordering nigiri and keeps putting it on the stove, and the chef has no recourse in the matter and keeps serving her and gets progressively more stressed.

      Cooking it decreases the volume which means she has to order more. Buddy is stoked for the extra sales.

    I hope this interaction is happening on the eastern coast of the Americas or western coast of Europe or Africa, otherwise the fish is far from home.
