Introducing Monjayaki – The Soul Food of Downtown Tokyo! This video, titled "How To Make 'MONAJAYAKI' With Spicy Caviar - Japanese Street Food," was uploaded by Ante. It introduces monjayaki, a soul food of Tokyo. Monjayaki is a local food in the suburbs of Tokyo where the delicious pancake-like food is cooked over a teppan. Monjayaki is similar to okonomiyaki, but it's characterized by the fact that it does not solidify on the griddle after being heated. Monjayaki was originally loved as a snack by children. However, over time, more and more ingredients were added, and it became a popular dish among adults as well. In this article we’ll introduce monjayaki! How to Make Monjayaki Photo：How to make monjayaki In this article, we'll show you how to make monjayaki by following the video of the traditional Tsukishima Monjayaki restaurant "Kondo," which has been in business for 70 years. Start by oiling a hot teppan, as shown at 0:06 in the video. Then, put finely chopped vegetables, the flour and water mixture, and your favorite ingredients, such as tenkasu, on the griddle. The most popular toppings for monjayaki are mentaiko (spicy cod roe), mochi (rice cakes), cheese, baby star ramen, boneless pork rib, kimchi, beef tendon, corn, squid, and sakura shrimp. Open the middle of the ingredients and make a ring of cabbage around it to form a bank. Place the mentaiko, the main ingredient, in the open space in the middle. Then, mix the mentaiko and dashi batter thoroughly, as shown at 0:55 in the video. When the mentaiko is cooked and begins to change color, toss it with the surrounding cabbage. Finally, use a spatula to finely chop the ingredients, as shown at 1:33 in the video. Finish with a cheese topping, and when it melts, it's ready! It takes less than three minutes to complete, so if you're looking for a quick, delicious snack, then monjayaki is the way to go! You can eat it with chopsticks, but when it comes to monjayaki, eating it with a small spatula and pairing it with beer or other alcoholic beverages is the most common way it's enjoyed among adults. Another popular way to eat it is to grill sausages and butter corn with soy sauce on the griddle together, as can be seen at 3:25 in the video. Monjayaki Across Japan Photo：Monjayaki from Tsukushima Kondo, Tokyo 1. Popular Monjayaki in Tokyo There are many long-standing monjayaki restaurants in downtown areas such as Sumida, Koto, Daito, Katsushika, Adachi, and Arakawa. The most famous tourist spots are Tsukishima (Kondo) in Chuo, Tokyo, and Asakusa in Taito, Tokyo. Nishinaka-dori in Tsukishima, Chuo, Tokyo is often called "Monjayaki Town" and "Monja Street" and is typically crowded with tourists. 2. Monjayaki in Gunma Besides the usual cabbage, monjayaki in Gunma is characterized by its small amount of ingredients and the fact that it's seldom cooked. It's even said by some that monjayaki originated in Gunma Prefecture, where udon flour, which was left over from the production of udon, a local specialty, was mixed with water and then grilled. In Isesaki, in the southern part of Gunma Prefecture, the origin of Isesaki's monjayaki is said to be when children mixed udon flour and water, added soy sauce, and grilled it on a teppan as a snack. 3. Ashikaga Monjayaki in Tochigi Monjayaki in Ashikaga, Tochigi, is similar to monjayaki that can be eaten at snack shops. It's made of flour and water only, with a very watery material, and is cooked thinly like a crepe. Leftovers are sometimes left to harden before being eaten as "senbei." Summary of Monjayaki, a Historical Japanese Snack Photo：Monjayaki There's an illustration of something called "Monjiyaki-ya" (文字焼き屋) in the Hokusai Manga published in 1819, and it's believed that monjayaki had already existed by the Edo Period (1603-1868 AD). There are many theories about the origins and roots of the historical dish, but the fact remains that Japanese people love monjayaki and various kinds of monjayaki have been created all over Japan. Using a hot plate makes it easy to enjoy monjayaki, so consider trying it at home!

日本食の基礎となる出汁を紹介 こちらの動画は「ANA Global Channel」が公開した「KATSUOBUSHI - IS JAPAN COOL? WASHOKU - 和食 （鰹節）」です。 うま味を引き出す食材として定番なのが鰹節。 ランチにおかかのおにぎりや冷奴、京都のおばんざいなどの郷土料理、そしてお節料理といった伝統料理まで、鰹節が欠かせない日本食はたくさんあります。 鰹節自体を見る機会は少なくなったとはいえ、和食専門店や贈り物用ではまだまだ重宝されています。 動画では出汁専門店「伏高」店主・へのインタビューが紹介されています。 伏高は築地にある創業100年を超える出汁専門店です。 鰹節だけではなく昆布や煮干しなど海の出汁を取り扱い、高級料理店からラーメン店まで幅広いお店に食材を提供しています。 今回は鰹節の秘密について紹介します。 鰹節は栄養満点！健康にもよい食材 鰹節で取った出汁は塩分を少なくしても十分に美味しさが感じられるため、積極的にレシピに取り入れたい材料です。 また、和食に限らず、乳幼児の離乳食にも使えます。 離乳食は基本的に薄味を付けますが、出汁を入れることでうま味が加わり、調味料を入れなくても十分美味しくなるのが利点。 作り方も簡単。 わが子のご飯に活用して、日本食に対する豊かな味覚を育んであげたいですね。 鰹節の種類 動画では2：50から、市販と節状の違いが説明されています。 スーパーでよく見る削られた鰹節は削り節と呼んでいます。 また、製造過程において、カビを表面につけて乾燥させる工程があります。 和食の世界では、この工程を通ったものを本節と呼んでいます。 本節の賞味期限は、メーカーが推奨する状態できちんと保存すれば数年は持つとされています。 日本の鰹節生産地 日本には静岡県と鹿児島県に、鰹節の生産で有名な地域があります。 静岡県焼津市は、「焼津節」として江戸時代から続く鰹節の名産地です。 1801年に土佐与市という人物が焼津に伝えた土佐節の製法がもとになっています。 また、伊豆では田子節が有名です。 続いて、薩摩半島の南端に位置し、生産量日本一を誇る鹿児島県枕崎市です。 枕崎の鰹節の歴史は古く、古事記にも「堅魚」との記載があるほど。 現在の製法は1707年に紀州から伝わった燻製法がもとになっています。 そして鹿児島県枕崎市と並んで有名なのが鹿児島県指宿市山川町です。 ここでは山川節が有名で、明治42年に伊予の業者が山川の山小屋を借りて土佐節を作ったのが始まりとされています。 鰹節のEU輸出に向けて奮闘する日本 英語で鰹節を意味する“Bonito Flakes”という言葉があるように、日本食、ひいては鰹節への注目度は世界でますます大きくなっています。 和食や日本食に限らず、フランス料理では調味料として鰹節が使われることも増えてきました。海外への輸出が今後増えてくるのではないでしょうか。 和食の出汁の王様！鰹節紹介まとめ 動画では1：30から出汁の取り方についてコツが解説されています。 コツは、けちけちしないでたっぷりと使うことです。 いい食材であればあるほど、たくさん入れても変に味がくどくなることはありません。 削り節は軽いので、いっぱい入れたつもりでも、実はあまり入っていなかったということがよくあります。 自分で思っている分の2倍は入れるようにすると美味しい出汁が取れますよ。 動画では昆布だしについても詳しい解説があります。和食に欠かせない出汁の奥深さをぜひご自分でもお確かめください！

人形町今半のすき焼き、醍醐味は生卵と仲居のおもてなし精神 こちらの動画は「ANA Global Channel」が公開した「SUKIYAKI - IS JAPAN COOL? WASHOKU - 和食 （すき焼き）」です。 明治時代に登場した牛鍋。 そこから発展して生まれたのがこの動画で紹介されている「すき焼き」です。 関西と関東で調理の仕方が違う、また各家庭でそれぞれの味付けがあるなど多少の違いはあるにしろ、日本人にとって「すき焼き」はハレの日に食べる特別料理、つまりごちそうのひとつとして多くの方に親しまれています。 この動画で紹介されている人形町今半では、日本の最高峰のすき焼きを提供しています。 今半のすき焼きは肉の品質だけでなく、具材や具材の切り方、調理の方法にまでこだわり抜いた絶品の和食グルメです。 人形町今半のすき焼きの調理方法 動画でご覧になれるように、人形町今半のすき焼きは煮るのではなく「焼くように炊く」のが特徴です。 まずは割り下を薄く引いた鍋に牛肉を一度に食べる量だけ入れます。 その際、牛肉は広げて並べ、重ならないようにするのがポイント。 そうすることで味がぼやけることなく、ダイレクトに肉の旨味が口の中に広がります。 肉がピンク色から茶色に変わったらひっくり返す合図です。 その後の火の通し方でミディアムロゼからウェルダンまでお好みでどうぞ。 肉の焼き方でそれぞれ旨味が変わってくるので、自分好みのこだわりを探してみるのも一興です。 すき焼きには牛肉のほか、ネギは欠かせません。 しっかりと火を通したネギは甘くて舌触り、歯触りも抜群です。 そのほか焼き豆腐、春菊、白菜、さらに椎茸や白滝、お麩もすき焼きの定番の具材です。 人形町今半では、すき焼きの肉や具材は生卵にくぐらせて食べることを推奨しています。 とはいえ、生卵に抵抗感をもつ外国人は多いものです。 宗教や文化の違いがあるため無理強いはできませんが、甘辛く煮えた具材と生卵の食べ合わせはすき焼きの醍醐味とも言えるので、是非チャレンジしてみてほしいものです。 人形町今半のおもてなし 鍋物といえばだしの中で具材をグツグツと煮てそれぞれ箸を進めるものですが、人形町今半のすき焼きに限っては仲居の存在が欠かせません。 仲居は鍋奉行のプロとして、鍋の中すべてのことを管理するほか客の小皿に取り分けまでしてくれます。 プロが付きっ切りでお世話してくれるからこそ、お客さんは食べることに専念でき、さらにちょうど頃合いの肉や具材を口に入れることができるのです。 このことから人形町今半のすき焼きは一般的な鍋物ではなく、鉄板焼きと同じようなパフォーマンス料理とも言えるかもしれませんね。 人形町今半のすき焼き紹介まとめ 外国人の方の中には日本食の代表であるすき焼きを食べたいと思っても食べ方が分からない人も多いようです。 人形町今半のように仲居の存在があると心強いことでしょう。 120年以上もの長い歴史と伝統を受け継いできた人形町今半のすき焼きで、日本食の真髄とおもてなしの精神を同時に味わってみませんか。
