About the Demonstrational "Dragon Beard's Candy" Video This video features footage of a professional making traditional dragon beard's candy by hand at a food stall in the Shin-Okubo area of Shinjuku, Tokyo (東京都新宿の新大久保). The delicate sweets, which are known for being difficult to make, are a traditional sweet in Korea which are also known by the name Kkul-tarae (クルタレ) or Ronshutan (ロンシュータン). In this video, you can see the techniques used to make dragon's beard candy and learn more about the history and characteristics of this traditional sweet. We hope you enjoy the video! What Is Dragon's Beard Candy? Source :YouTube screenshot Dragon's beard candy is a traditional sweet which has been eaten in countries such as China, Korea and Taiwan for hundreds of years. Its popularity has spread to other foreign countries, such as the US, Taiwan, Singapore, Canada and Hong Kong. Dragon beard's candy originated in China over 2,000 years ago, when the delicate treat was originally prepared for the emperor; however, it eventually came to be eaten by ordinary citizens and has been loved to this day. The main ingredient used to make dragon beard's candy is maltose syrup, known as "mugi mizuame" in Japanese. Cornstarch is also an essential ingredient. It's made by stretching a hard piece of candy over and over again to create a candy with a light and crunchy texture. The mildly sweet Dragon's beard candy is often given as a gift (lucky charm) in Seoul, Korea. Watch the Amazing Skills of This Professional Dragon Beard's Candy Maker in Shin-Okubo! Source :YouTube screenshot Each piece of dragon's beard candy is carefully handmade by craftsmen. As can be seen in the video, the street vendor first prepares the maltose syrup candy. He creates a hole in the hard candy and proceeds to stretch the candy using this hole. You can take a look at the stretching process throughout the video. The vendor then stretches the candy over and over while continually covering it in cornstarch until the threads of the candy reach the thickness of what is thought to resemble a dragon's beard. Only highly skilled professionals can make the candy incredibly thin without it breaking or snapping. A single piece of candy is stretched into an amazing 16,384 strands. From 4:26 in the video, the street vendor explains that this is the perfect number of strands to create the most pleasant melt-in-your-mouth texture. At 2:20 in the video, he begins to fold the candy to create the 16,384 strands, which he completes in roughly 35-40 seconds. The highlight of the video has to be when the professional dragon's beard maker shows off the finished product to the customers, at which point it looks beautifully smooth like threads of silk. Many customers are amazed by the look of the finished product! You can take a look at this in the video at 4:18. If you get a chance to see it up close, be sure to take a video of your own and share it with your friends! Source :YouTube screenshot After stretching out the candy, crushed peanuts, almonds, sesame seeds, or coconut can be added as a filling. One piece of candy costs approximately a few hundred yen (a couple bucks (USD)). There are very few people who know how to make the candy as the skills required are so difficult to master. Summary of Dragon Beard Candy There are food stalls in Shin-Okubo and Yokohama's Chinatown (横浜中華街, yokohamachuukagai) where you can watch dragon beard's candy being made right before your eyes. You can also buy dragon beard's candy online, sometimes sold under the name "Dragon Candy." For those interested in tasting and experiencing the delicate texture of dragon beard's candy, we highly recommended purchasing some and trying them out for yourself!

SIMカードの購入こうにゅうを考かんがえている方かたは、まず自分じぶんのスマホがSIMフリーかどうかを確認かくにんしましょう。 If you purchase a SIM card without doing this, you run the risk of paying for something you can't use. 確認かくにんせずにSIMカードを購入こうにゅうすると、使つかえないものにお金かねを出だすことになります。 Furthermore, if it takes a while to purchase Wi-Fi, you'll have less time to enjoy traveling. さらに、Wi-Fiわぃふぁいが使つかえないだけでなく、購入こうにゅうする時間じかんが長ながくなると、旅行りょこうを楽たのしむ時間じかんが減へってしまう可能性かのうせいもあります。 [Number of people] 【人数にんずう】 The next thing to keep in mind is how many people you're traveling with. 次つぎに気きをつけたいのは、一緒いっしょに旅行りょこうする人数にんずうが何人なんにんかということです。 Most pocket Wi-Fi devices allow upwards of 10 people to connect to them at a time. ほとんどのポケットWi-Fiわぃふぁい端末たんまつは、同時どうじに10人じゅうにんまで接続せつぞくできます。 If you're traveling with a group of people, we recommend pocket Wi-Fi, as it will help save money. グループで旅行りょこうする場合ばあいは、お金かねを節約せつやくできるポケットWi-Fiわぃふぁいを利用りようするのがおすすめです。 [Duration of stay] 【在日ざいにち期間きかん】 Another thing to consider is how long you'll be staying in Japan. もう1つ気きをつけたいのは、在日ざいにち期間きかんです。 If you're only going to be staying in Japan for a week or two, then carrying around a pocket Wi-Fi device probably won't be too much of a hassle. 1いち～2週間にしゅうかんぐらいの旅行りょこうの場合ばあいは、ポケットWi-Fiわぃふぁいを持もつのはそれほど気きにならないかもしれません。 That being said, if you're going to be staying any longer than that, you might be better off getting a SIM card so you don't have to keep a pocket Wi-Fi device with you at all times. しかし、それ以上いじょうの旅行りょこうをする場合ばあいには、ポケットWi-Fiわぃふぁいをずっと持もたなくていいようにSIMカードを買かった方ほうが良よいかもしれません。 This also removes the risk of accidentally losing your pocket Wi-Fi device, giving you peace of mind. なくす リスクもなくなりますので安心あんしんです。 [Budget] 【予算よさん】 The last thing to keep in mind obviously is budget. 最後さいごに気きをつけたいのは、予算よさんです。 SIM cards tend to be a bit more expensive than pocket Wi-Fi because of their ease-of-use. SIMカードは使つかいやすさから、ポケットWi-Fiわぃふぁいよりも少すこし高たかくなります If you value ease-of-use and don't want to worry about the potential costs of having to pay for a lose pocket Wi-Fi device, then a SIM card could be your best option. 使つかいやすさとポケットWi-Fiわぃふぁいをなくした場合ばあいの費用ひようが気きになるのであれば、SIMカードがベストかもしれません。 Summary of Wi-Fi for Traveling in Japan 日本旅行にほんりょこうで使つかえるWi-Fiわぃふぁいまとめ nd that was our introduction to pocket Wi-Fi, SIM cards, and Wi-Fi apps, the 3 main ways of getting Wi-Fi in Japan. 日本旅行にほんりょこうのときの主おもなWi-Fiわぃふぁい取得しゅとく方法ほうほう、ポケットWi-Fiわぃふぁい、SIMカード、Wi-Fiわぃふぁいアプリの3つみっつを紹介しょうかいしてきました。 Our recommendation is to use a combination of both apps and pocket Wi-Fi or SIM cards. おすすめは、アプリとポケットWi-FiわぃふぁいまたはSIMカードの両方りょうほうを用もちいることです。 If you know you're going to be in one place for a while, you can use the apps to connect to a publicly available Wi-Fi network to save data on your pocket Wi-Fi or SIM card. しばらく同おなじ場所ばしょにいることが分わかっている場合ばあいは、アプリを使つかって公共こうきょうWi-Fiわぃふぁいに接続せつぞくすることで、ポケットWi-FiわぃふぁいやSIMカードのデータを節約せつやくできます。 Also, be sure to disconnect from your pocket Wi-Fi when you reach your hotel or whatever accommodation you may be staying at, and make sure to connect to the Wi-Fi network that they provide. また、ホテルなどの宿泊施設しゅくはくしせつに着ついたら、必かならずポケットWi-Fiわぃふぁいの接続せつぞくを切きって、その宿泊施設しゅくはくしせつが提供ていきょうするWi-Fiわぃふぁいネットワークに接続せつぞくしましょう。 That concludes our guide to Wi-Fi in Japan in 2023. 2023年にせんにじゅうさんねんの日本にほんのWi-Fiわぃふぁいガイドが以上いじょうになります。 We hope this guide can come in handy if you're considering traveling in Japan! 次つぎの日本旅行にほんりょこうのときには、ぜひこの記事きじを参考さんこうにしてください。 h2 ruby { font-weight: bold; } .mod-article-caption .caption-heading { font-size: 2.4rem !important; } .caption-text { font-size: 2rem !important; }

Video introduction of "Gin no An Osu Shotengai" Taiyaki store in Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture This video, titled "薄皮たい焼きの作り方 Japanese Pancakes fish shaped TAIYAKI," produced by "Sushi Bomber TV クッキング最前線," shows taiyaki being made at a food stall. This video is a compilation of taiyaki demonstrations at "Gin no An" at Osu Shotengai, a shopping street in Nagoya city (名古屋市: Nagoya-shi, Aichi prefecture (愛知県: Aichi-ken). Taiyaki is a traditional Japanese confectionery in the shape of a fish, and there are many famous shops in Japan that sell the delicious snack. Be sure to watch this video to learn how it's made! The Origin and Types of Taiyaki Photo：Taiyaki In Japan, “Imagawayaki, a round pancake filled with red bean paste, has been eaten since the Edo period (1603-1868). One day, a long established imagawayaki store changed the shape of their pancakes from a round shape to a fish shape. After changing the shape, the snack quite literally sold like hotcakes. The nursery rhyme Oyoge Taiyaki-kun was also a popular song for children in the Showa era. Taiyaki has a long history, and the variety of taiyaki is expanding rapidly, from the more orthodox ones with azuki beans in between, to chocolate taiyaki and even cream taiyaki. How to Make Taiyaki Source :YouTube screenshot Taiyaki are baked from a mixture of ingredients, including flour, baking soda, sugar, and water. The batter is poured into a metal baking mold specially made for taiyaki, followed by a generous amount of sweet bean paste, as shown at 0:45 in the video. When the batter is sufficiently cooked, the two sides of the mold are combined and it is further baked, as shown at 1:27 in the video. This can be a bit difficult to prepare at home, as the average homeowner doesn't have a taiyaki machine available. At 2:46 in the video, you can see the popular croissant taiyaki being made. The cooking process differs from regular taiyaki in that the ingredients are pre-prepared and can be baked as is. Each taiyaki contains about 220 calories and costs around 120-150 yen. Taiyaki is inexpensive and easy to eat, making it a great snack. Summary of Taiyaki Source :YouTube screenshot If you're planning a trip to Japan, we recommend that you taste a variety of Japanese food and sweets to gain a deeper understanding of Japanese culture. there are a number of taiyaki shops, such as Gin no An, all over Japan that offer taiyaki sales demonstrations.> Once you've experienced the artisanal skills of these taiyaki chefs, be sure to try their freshly baked taiyaki!
