Trails to Tsukiji S2017E10 - Kinmedai

Kinmedai, a type of Japanese sea bream, is a deep-sea fish with a bright red body and glittering golden eyes. Thanks to its strong umami flavor and rich, high-quality fat, kinmedai is extremely popular in Japan, and is eaten as sashimi, simmered and even deep-fried. Join us as we visit Japan's largest kinmedai fishing port and discover how this mysterious fish, which can live at over 400 meters below sea level, is fished and cooked.
