Consulate hosts Japanese cuisine clinic for cooks in NY

Consulate hosts Japanese cuisine clinic for cooks in NY The Japanese Consulate General in New York on Saturday hosted a workshop for cooks on handling and preparing raw fish. Sushi chef Toshio Suzuki demonstrated how to remove blood from flounder and other fish and how to cut them up while keeping them hygienic to an audience of around 20 at Michelin-starred seafood restaurant Oceana in New York.

The cooks then tried preparing the fish following Suzuki's instructions. The consulate general held the event in hope that local restaurants serving Japanese and other cuisines will improve their handling of raw fish. ''We hope local restaurants in New York will have proper knowledge and the Japanese food boom will continue for a long time,'' said Yasuhisa Kawamura, deputy chief of mission at the consulate general.
