Sushi Battle – Persuit of Authentic Sushi

The iron chef tackles Kampyo (dried gourd) and milk while Nakazawa stick with more traditional way of preparing kampyo. Nakazawa says that there are so many incorrect versions of edomae zushi he is here to show the authentic way of making it. Separately, he is working on Kohada using double shots of vinegar and salt.

Iron chef is making Funa Zushi, the oldest form of sushi. For most people, this is an acquired taste, almost smells like blue cheese. Fukui asked him why he took such risk? “Funa zushi is the roots of sushi and without its roots, how are going to present the essence of sushi?” answered Morimoto. Interestingly enough, he uses bacon to add flavor to the Congo eel.
