- The ahi (yellowfin) tuna is probably the most requested fish by my viewers.
Sources: FDA food code 3-402.11: www.fda.gov/media/164194/down... This covers exempt fish including certain species of tuna including yellowfin. While it is safe in regards to parasites, as with all other raw foods there is always risk of bacterial spoilage
$49.27 Costco Tuna is an unbeatable sushi hack. Let's turn this $49 loin to $600+ worth of sushi at home. You can also make costco tuna sashimi and sushi using the steaks as well #sushi #sashimi #tuna #costco #thesushiguy #fyp #japanesefood

No need to do a salt + sugar cure like the salmon?
Can you show us with tuna blocks/steaks how to slice?
Will do! Those are best suited for rolls and poke, but if it's thick enough (and I hope to find one), it can be sliced for nigiri
@@photogami I found steaks from costco freezer section that are about 1 to 1.5in. Not sure of it is thick enough but I wanted to try to turn it into Tataki, I just dont know which direction to slice :(
Rolls from steaks would be great to see. You could do a mixed salmon and tuna poke!
@@photogamican you also make a short/video on making sushi rice?
@@TheWoolyWolfI second this I wanna know how to make sushi rice soooo bad. It’s kind of difficult.
Great Video, here in Germany I sometimes buy Tuna at Metro Wholesale as they offer fresh fish. I am wondering how your vacuum sealed frozen tuna will look like when you thaw it. Mine always lost color pretty fast. Please let us have a video about that too! :)
Yesss been waiting for this! Now to find some tuna at my Costco!
Hope you enjoy! let me know how it goes
Gorgeous tuna
Wait... didn't the part about the process for freezing/parasite safety say that the paragraph shown specifically doesn't apply to Yellowfin Tuna (the type used in the video)?
The steve1989mre reference will never get old.
Nice 👍🏾
Poke is my favorite meal EVER!
Nice 👍🏻
It was very thoughtful of you to give a trigger warning some people are very sensitive to certain sounds, just another reason to watch you.
i cant finda tuna anymore at costco other than canned tuna they used to have tuna all the time.
Was this previously frozen? So you can refreeze it? Ours is marked previously frozen and only steaks. I may ask them to leave me a loin and see if they will.
Yes it came in frozen per the label, I do refreeze (usually a big no no)
The steaks are great for poke and sashimi, and if it's thick enough you can make nigiri too. If you ask them for a loin, ask them for a center cut! The tail end I used here gets tapered at the end and has lots of sinew that requires breakdown
@photogami do you need to vacuum seal in order to refreeze?
What yanagiba do you own?
I use a super cheap intro yani called Lucky Cook (non affiliated link), it's not bad!;

I would definitely freeze wild tuna for a week just to be sage
I ate too much, the whole thing, and had a serious system flush. A flush is good once in a while. My mistake.
Vacuum seal and freeze?
yes
