"Moderation, restraint, precision."

- Temperance is the control of life.

Restraint is the control of desire.

-- Precision is the control of the work.

After World War II, the Japanese changed their living habits and eating habits, from preferring lean meat to falling in love with greasy food, and the black tuna with a high fat content was eaten raw and delicious, which just met the needs of this aspect.

*Clams: Abundant in Tokyo Bay, it can be eaten in Japan from autumn to the spawning period of the clams, and is also used as a soup at many sushi restaurants.

The taste is sweet and warm, gentle and timeless.

Seventeenth series: Sea urchin UNI / Sea Urchin

Jiro Ono: "I'm 93 years old this year, and I want to use these hands to pinch sushi until I'm 100 years old."

The cooked star eels are so soft that they need to be carefully scooped up and arranged on a baking sheet with a rice spoon. The star eel sushi kneaded at room temperature is like wrapped in vinegar rice, which melts in the mouth.

Touch your shriveled purse again...

Jiro Ono: "I'm 93 years old this year, and I want to use these hands to pinch sushi until I'm 100 years old."

Jiro Ono: "I'm 93 years old this year, and I want to use these hands to pinch sushi until I'm 100 years old."
Jiro Ono: "I'm 93 years old this year, and I want to use these hands to pinch sushi until I'm 100 years old."

Jiro Ono: "I'm 93 years old this year, and I want to use these hands to pinch sushi until I'm 100 years old."
Jiro Ono: "I'm 93 years old this year, and I want to use these hands to pinch sushi until I'm 100 years old."

As a "professional" who pursues sushi as a lifelong pursuit

Even the master who cares about the temperature and dryness of his hands is afraid of affecting the fluency of the sushi

The weight of the two words "worker",

Really very deep and serious.

Compared with

In a society of national fast food,

Our minds are particularly barren.

Jiro Ono: "I'm 93 years old this year, and I want to use these hands to pinch sushi until I'm 100 years old."

#老爷子说: "93 years old,
