      If you live in a major city you can get sushi quality pretty much at any fish monger. I'm from Portland and now live in Denver. I get top grade salmon and tuna all the time. With air shipping the way it is now, most fish can get to a shop within 2-3 days from market.

    Is it just common raw salmon or do I need to marinate or prepare it in any way? Should I trust any salmon I find in the supermarket? This looks like a recipe for salmonella for the average person.

    • @mitchellreed562
      @mitchellreed562 6 лет назад

      EduardoBrasil10000 please get only sushi grade salmon. It’s more expensive but you’re paying for freshness and quality, run of the mill raw salmon will definitely get you sick, also not give you the desired flavor profile. Sushi grade is mean for raw consumption, while most others are not.
