Neapolitan spaghetti is a typical dish served at cafes and European-style restaurants all over Japan. After watching this video, you're sure to want to have a go at making this delicious pasta dish which has evolved with Japanese cuisine over the years. How Did the Neapolitan Pasta Dish Come to Be a Part of Japanese Cuisine? Photo：Neapolitan pasta Neapolitan pasta, named after the city Naples in Italy, may lead many people to believe it's an Italian recipe; however, this dish was actually created in Japan. It dates all the way back to post-war Japan. Due to the lack of food resources after the war, hotels had to come up with new ways to provide delicious food at a relatively low cost, and in doing so, created the Neapolitan spaghetti dish. Neapolitan spaghetti gained huge popularity in the Showa period (1926-1989 AD) in Japan. Hachioji city (八王子市, hachioujishi) in Tokyo even has its own special version of the dish using locally sourced ingredients called Hachioji Neapolitan which is quite popular. How to Make Neapolitan Spaghetti Source :YouTube screenshot One of the great things about this dish is that it can be made in a single frying pan, and tastes just as good as a dish you'd get at a restaurant. Check out the video to find out how it's made! For starters, as you can see at 0:13 in the video, you'll need to fry sliced onions, green peppers (sliced into rings), mushrooms, and thickly sliced bacon in a pan with some olive oil. Next, boil the pasta following the instructions on the packet (1:28) and once the boiling water has evaporated add in the ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. From there, add in the already softened vegetables and mix to cover the spaghetti and vegetables in the sauce. Finally, season to taste with salt and pepper, adding a little butter for creaminess and top it with powdered cheese and parsley to finish. Just looking at the prepared dish with its deep red sauce and healthy amount of vegetables is enough to make your mouth water! You can see the completed dish at 2:40 in the video. Summary of the Neapolitan Pasta Recipe Photo：Neapolitan pasta ingredients We hope you enjoyed the Neapolitan pasta recipe video.

Video Introduction of Amazuki Chestnut Production Process at a Popular Amazuki Chestnut Shop in Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture This video, titled "Making the Best Sweet Chestnut "AMAGURI" at Kyoto! Japanese Street food, Craftsmanship, Gourmet!," was created by "DELI BALI." This video introduces the sweet chestnut store "Hayashi Monshodo" (林万昌堂) which has been in business since 1874. Hayashi Monshodo is located at the entrance to Shinkyogoku (新京極) in central Kyoto (京都府, kyoutofu). As you can see in the video, a huge amount of chestnuts are roasted here every day. Tianjin Sweet Chestnuts have become a famous soul food of Kyoto. Enjoy watching learning more about Tianjin Sweet Chestnuts in the video. More About Tianjin Sweet Chestnuts Photo：Tianjin Sweet Chestnuts Tianjin Sweet Chestnuts are made from chestnuts of the Chinese Chestnut tree (シナグリ, shinaguri) (scientific name Castanea mollissima), a deciduous tree native to China. Since the astringent bark is not attached to the edible part with tannin like the Japanese chestnut, it's easy to peel off the roasted part with one's hands or utensils. Li Jinzhang (李金章) and Kunijiro Kuki (九鬼国次郎) opened Japan's first sweet chestnut store "Kanemasuya" on November 3rd, 1910 in Asakusa's Nakamise Shopping Street (浅草の仲見世). Chinese chestnuts were originally only grown in China, however, selectively bred species, which differ from the original Chinese variety, are now being grown in both Kochi Prefecture (高知県, kouchiken) and Gifu prefecture (岐阜県, gifuken). These chestnuts are highly disease resistant, much like the Japanese chestnut, and hybrids are currently being created with American and European species to improve their resistance to disease and pests. How Tianjin Sweet Chestnuts Are Made Photo：Tianjin Sweet Chestnuts The process for making Tianjin Sweet Chestnuts is as follows. 1. Roasting From 0:28 in the video, you can see a huge amount of chestnuts being roasted together. They are mixed constantly with river pebbles until they become soft. The river pebbles are great conductors of heat which helps maintain the plumpness of the chestnuts throughout roasting. 2. Sorting From 0:56 in the video, you can see the chestnuts being sorted. Poor quality chestnuts are removed and discarded. This is all done by hand and requires a lot of knowledge and experience to know what to look for. The chestnuts are roasted carefully, with roasting time and methods being adjusted as needed. Once the chestnuts are fully roasted, mizuame is added. The sugar caramelizes producing a beautiful aroma. 3. Inspection From 3:53 in the video, you can see the chestnuts being checked to see how much longer they need to be cooked. The fully roasted chestnuts are separated from the hot river pebbles using a sieve. 4. Sorting From 6:00 in the video, you can see the fully roasted chestnuts being sorted. Small or poor quality chestnuts are removed during this stage. 5. Brushing From 6:38 in the video, you can see the chestnuts being brushed. This process produces a glossy finish. Once this process is complete, the chestnuts are ready to be packaged and sold. 6. Completion From 7:47 in the video, you can see the chestnuts as they're packaged and then lined up in the store ready to be sold. Summary of Hayashi Manshodo's Tianjin Sweet Chesnuts Photo：Shelled sweet chestnuts Tianjin Sweet Chestnuts are fun to peel and delicious to eat! We hope you enjoyed watching the video and learning more about how Tianjin Sweet Chestnuts are made! Tianjin Sweet Chestnuts are higher in calories than Japanese chestnuts, high in fiber, and very filling, making them a very popular snack. If you are interested in trying these sweet, freshly baked chestnuts, they can also be purchased online, so be sure to check out Hayashi Manshodo's website! 【Official Website】Hayashi Manshodo - A Long Established Chestnut Shop https://www.hayashi-mansyodo.jp/en/
