Embarking on the journey of a sushi chef involves an unparalleled commitment—one that extends far beyond the ordinary expectations for culinary excellence. Often, to begin that journey, one must apprentice for years under an Itamae, or sushi master, working hard to learn even the most humble tasks before earning the privilege to handle crucial elements like rice, scallions, and ginger. In the realm of high-end sushi, these seemingly ordinary duties bear significant weight.
In today's podcast, Chef Jesse Ito shares his journey with us from being the son of a sushi chef to becoming one of the most celebrated sushi chefs in America today.
