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! Watching how the amazing dragon beard candy is made is guaranteed to pique your curiosity! Be sure to check it out in the video! -

News Video Introduction about "Toyosu Market" in Koto-ku, Tokyo This video, titled "One Year After Relocation: 'Toyosu Brand' to the World," (【市場移転から1年 「豊洲ブランド」を世界へ】) was produced by TOKYO MX. It was in 2018 that Tokyo's Tsukiji Market, a project by Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike, was relocated to Toyosu Market, a central wholesale market in Tokyo. As you can see from 0:35 of the video, Toyosu Market held an event in October 2019 to celebrate the first anniversary of its opening, which drew many visitors to the market. In the video, you can find out what has changed since the market moved to Toyosu from interviews with real people working at Toyosu. What Kind of Place Is Toyosu Market? Source :YouTube screenshot As you can see from 2:11 in the video, thorough temperature control is essential for handling fresh produce in the wholesale seafood industry. A major feature of the Toyosu Market is its temperature control and hygiene management functions made possible by the latest closed-type facilities. If temperature and hygiene management can be achieved on a consistent basis, the number of items handled can be increased. The relocated Toyosu Market, shown in the video, is open to the general public for tours. In addition to the seafood wholesale building, the seafood wholesale building gallery tour, and the fruit and vegetable observation tour, there is a PR corner as well. The tuna auction viewing deck and the turret truck display corner are also a must-see. Toyosu Market also has restaurants, so you can stroll around and eat. On weekends and holidays, sushi and other gourmet foods are available for lunch at Toyosu Market, and many Tokyo residents and tourists come here to enjoy a stroll through the market. How Do the Toyosu Market Operators View the Move From Tsukiji Market to Toyosu Market? Source :YouTube screenshot Takayuki Shinoda, the third generation of Ishiji, a fishery wholesaler, says at 1:29 in the video that although he is already deeply familiar with Toyosu Market and has worked there, he has a special place in his heart for Tsukiji Market. Toyosu Market has a parking lot, but the nearest station to the market is in front of the Yurikamome Market station, and Shinoda says the market's inaccessibility is an issue for the future. Chef Akifumi Sakagami of Ginza's "Sushi Ginza Onodera," introduced at 4:50 in the video, hopes that Toyosu Market after the relocation will become "The World's Kitchen" and wants to build the Toyosu brand so that it attracts attention from all over the world. Summary of Toyosu Market's Relocation Photo:Toyosu Market As introduced in the video, the relocated Toyosu Market conducts daily sales and various promotions with the aim of establishing the "Toyosu Brand." The Tsukiji Market, once known and loved as "The Kitchen of Japan" is currently undergoing partial demolition, but even after the move to Toyosu Market, many restaurants remain in Tsukiji's other markets. If you're planning a trip to Tokyo, we recommend visiting Toyosu or Tsukiji Market and trying the delicious seafood they offer! 【Official Website】Toyosu market http://www.toyosu-market.or.jp/ -

Barry-Joshua Grisdale created an English travel information website for people with disabilities called “Accessible Japan”, and promotes information concerning accessibility to Japan’s tourist attractions for the rest of the world.

In this article, we will be introducing Barry-Joshua Grisdale and Japan’s handicap accessible situation. The Different Types of "Handicap Accessible." Photo:A wheelchair accessible ramp Handicap accessible means that people with disabilities, elderly people with impaired movement, and a wide range of other people, can use facilities and get around with ease. This also refers to the modifications that help make their lives easier. Recently, a barrier-free law has been put into place in Japan, and there have been many changes happening such as: reducing uneven transitions between streets and sidewalks,installing tactile paving on the streets (braille blocks), handicap toilets, as well as elevators. Handrails on trains, extensive wheelchair accessible routes, “Non-step” buses, and handicap accessible hotels are some of the other efforts being made. Japan’s Efforts to Become “Barrier-Free” Source :YouTube screenshot It has been 4 years since Barry-Joshua Grisdale created “Accessible Japan”, the English travel information website for people with disabilities that is accessed over 70,000 times annually. Barry-Joshua Grisdale now works at a welfare facility in Tokyo. He fondly remembers when he came to Japan on a trip when he was 19 years old, and 6 train station attendants carried him down the stairs. Since then he has been spreading the word on how wonderful Japan is to its visitors. Source :YouTube screenshot The English travel information website for people with disabilities “Accessible Japan”, created by Barry-Joshua Grisdale, recommend a pathway leading up to the popular sightseeing attractionSensoji Temple, as shown from 1:05 in the video.
