My favorite Japanese sardine dish(Kabayaki). Crispy and delicious!



Hello everyone! I’m Ryusei.
Today, I introduced Iwashi no kabayaki(鰯の蒲焼き). If I have a chance to make a meal, I may select this dish. This dish is so delicious and similar to Unagi(eel). The rich sauce and deep fried sardine are perfect! The tip is deep-frying the sardines in a short time over high heat. I hope you’ll enjoy Iwashi no kabayaki(鰯の蒲焼き).

    I thought small sardines would be fine to fry and eat with the bones….. I like how You teach technic. I am a home cooke. All I learned is from internet/youtube. Thank You!

    My sardines are frozen, never fresh, and when they defrost, they become to soft and the flesh is not firm like yours, is there a way i can keep the flesh firm, do you know any tips you can share? you did such a beautiful job, thank you for sharing this.

    Hi Ryusei. It's Rafael from Rio de Janeiro here. I'm following you since your first video. I know this is a not recent video but I got a question. I heard you said that the rice to this recipe is a japan grain rice in your Kabayaki right? But, it's the same rice to make sushi (sticky)? It's a different preparation or is another tyoe of rice?

    Thank you for this lovely video! Here in Calcutta, we also eat sardines (I think it is an Indian version?), but with the head and often in a light mustard gravy. I would love to try this at home next time. Since you explained it so lucidly, it does not seem too difficult, so I think I'll cut the fish myself, too. ^_^ P.S. Hope you reach your subscribers goal soonest! <3 Thank you again, and love from India!

    I think you are great with the camera but the way you talk sounds well like A.I. It is no fun to me. When you asked for 100k subs this year you sounded like a person, and I thought "Huh why doesn't he talk like that all video?" My thoughts anyway. Great video and looks delicious!

    Oh that looks so delicious…. I could eat it as a whole being that fresh. Your foods look so delicious forgot to subscribe earlier on.

    Looks amazing! Should’ve watched this before making sardines. But I feel like you would need a very sharp knife to prepare it like this.
