What I love about Jamie Oliver is the amount of knowledge he is willing to share with us.

Despite the comments here this just shows Jamie Oliver is a true chief when it comes too food. Filleting a fish & not just showing us how too cook it & eat it. That is the trade trade of a fishmonger. I wish you all the best best Jaimie Oliver. Keep the videos coning. Because every time I'm learning something new.

Jamie has always been one of my favorite chefs he really has a way of communicating thank you

[StevenPitts]

I love these basic skills videos.  I don't need to see a whole dish being made just this is really great to watch or reference later.  Makes me feel like getting a salmon!

Even from 10 years ago, Jamie Oliver, in my opinion is not only an incredible chef, but he knows how to communicate to his audience...I'll alway be a fan! Thank you Jamie!

One of our favourite fish to eat. We usually throw it in a pan with soy, honey, ginger & chilli... and a bottle of white to match, natch.

Hey Jamie,
I truly admire what you are doing for the world. I actually bumped into your Food Revolution movement from youtubing a bunch of knife skill videos, as I am a new aspiring chef trying to better myself in all possible ways. Thank you for sacrificing so much of your own life/family life in order to pursue what you feel is right to do. Much love, from Centreville, VA.

"Out the bum hole" ..words 2 live by! Gotta respect the basic, thx J.O.!

Practical and well presented as always. Every food lover should learn this skill. Jamie thanks for devoting time to teach.

i've just moved to dubai and salmon fillets are CRAZY expensive here so i've started buying full salmons instead. this is so helpful, thank you! 😊

[stephenimsong]

I'm actually very impressed by his fillet job. I thought he was gonna do the one cut fillet. Nice to see it done right. Cheer!

[Bruuuuhhh]

My first job was selling seafood at a farmer's market and this video almost makes me miss the job! I learned how to fillet a fish (I figured why not learn if I was selling it anyway).  I left the job knowing how to fillet salmon and halibut which helps so much when trying to eat nice fish on a budget.

Very interesting! I would love to see more technical prep videos like this!

[ThisIsMyFullName]

Don't throw that skin away! Peal the scales out, cut the skin in slices, and fry it crispy on a pan, like bacon. It tastes so good!

[megantattersall]

Just tried this and to say we didn't have the correct knife it went fantastic! Thank you so much!

[lolzlmaorofllol]

This was a great video, not just a recipe, but something that can actually help you get better! Thanks man!

[RainbowGardens]
