This video, titled "銀閣寺・慈照寺 Ginkakuji Temple," was released by "yamakami kumasan." Ginkakuji Temple (The Silver Pavilion), officially called Jisho-ji Temple, was built by Ashikaga Yoshimasa, the 8th Shogun of the Muromachi period. The two buildings, Ginkakuji Temple and Togu-Do, are designated as national treasures. Kyoto has a Golden Pavilion and a Silver Pavilion, but unlike the Golden Pavilion, which has a golden exterior wall, the walls of the Silver Pavilion are not silver. The Silver Pavilion's calm and serene appearance with a Zen atmosphere is the charm of the building. The beautiful gardens are also a must-see at the Silver Pavilion. It is said that the meticulously shaped sand mound built on Ginsyadan, known as Kogetsudai, was built to allow visitors to view the moon from the garden. -

Natto for People Who Hate Natto?! Making Red Soybean Natto! Kyo-Natto Made by a President Who Used to Hate Natto!

Red Soybean Natto Video Introduction This video, titled "How to make a Delicious Japanese "Kyo-Natto" Amazing "Natto" Master in Kyoto Japan![ASMR][DELI BALI]," was uploaded by "DELI BALI." This series features Kyo-natto, a popular product in Japan's Kansai region, made by Fujiwara Foods, near Kuramaguchi Station in Kyoto. Check out the video below to see how the delicious Kyo-Natto is made. Red Soybeans - One of the Many Varieties of Soybeans! Photo:3 types of soybeans Did you know that there are many varieties of soybeans? When you hear the word "soybeans," the first thing that comes to mind is probably the common yellow soybean. However, there are actually other varieties of soybeans, including red soybeans, green soybeans, and even black soybeans. Among the many varieties, red soybeans are a rare variety with few farmers growing them. Their nutritional value and flavor are superior to those of other varieties, and they are highly sought after. Different Ways to Eat Red Soybeans One problem many people have with natto is that the soybean skin remains in their mouth even after they've finished eating. The skin of red soybeans is so thin that it easily passes through the teeth, and the texture is pleasant, so the skin does not remain in the mouth. Also, because of its strong umami flavor, many recipes have been published for people who want to taste the full flavor of the bean, such as nimame (boiled soybeans). In addition to the sweet nimame, there are many other ways to enjoy soybeans, such as boiled in salted water, served with rice, or with spinach and tofu dressing. There are many different recipes to try out. In this video, red soybean natto is used as an ingredient. Kyo-Natto - The Creme de la Creme of Natto Source :YouTube screenshot The video introduces Fujiwara Foods, a leading natto manufacturer in Kyoto. In addition to natto made from common soybeans, the company also produces red soybean natto and green soybean natto. Several types of natto, including "Kyo-Natto Otsubu" (京納豆大粒, Large Bean Kyo-Natto) and "Kamogawa Natto" (鴨川納豆, Kamo River Natto), which won an excellence award for five consecutive years at the Japan Natto Competition, are loved by many natto fans. The process of making red soybean natto begins with the artisan's hand washing of the beans. The beans are gently washed by hand and soaked in water until they are about twice their original size. From there, the red soybeans are cooked in a pressure cooker. In the video, you can see the pressure cooker, which is full of Fujiwara Foods' commitment and history. After the beans are cooked, natto bacillus is immediately sprayed on the beans. Before the beans cool down, the natto is packed and left in the fermentation room for another 20 hours before the red soybean natto is finally ready. President Fujiwara says he never liked natto and did not want to take over his family's business. However, he is now known as a natto maker with fans not only in Kyoto but all across Japan. Summary of Kyo-Natto, a Natto Made With Red Soybeans Natto is a food for all genders and ages because of its high quality protein, so much so that it's called "Hatake no Niku" (畑の肉, 'the meat of the fields') in Japan. Furthermore, in recent years, soybeans have been attracting attention from people interested in dieting as a low-sugar food. Natto is made from fermented soybeans, which makes it even more nutritious. However, as the president of Fujiwara Foods disliked natto, it is a food that Japanese people are quite divided about. For those who dislike the smell, using spices such as wasabi, garlic, or curry seems to make it easier to eat. Be sure to give it a try if you dislike natto yourself. Even some natto lovers probably didn't know that there's red soybean natto and green soybean natto, or they may have known about them but have never eaten them. You'd be surprised at how different the different types of soybeans are. Red soybean natto is on a whole different level from regular natto. Be sure to give it a try! -

Japan's Traditional Embroidery Restoration This video, titled "Nippon Teshigoto Zukan x Wakoh-sha" (ニッポン手仕事図鑑 × 和光舎), was released by "Nippon Teshigoto Zukan" (ニッポン手仕事図鑑). It introduces the embroidery restoration workshop "Wakoh-sha" in Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture. Wakoh-sha is a company specializing in the cleaning of robes worn by monks in Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture. After cleaning these robes for a while, they also began to restore the embroidery of "uchishiki," patterned cloth laid on a table or Buddhist altar. This video introduces the work of an embroiderer who specializes in embroidery restoration, a craft rarely seen by the general public. A Closer Look at the Traditional Embroider Restoration of Wakoh-sha Source :YouTube screenshot The uchishiki, a cloth used at Buddhist temples and in Shinto rituals, is what is being restored in the video. Embroiderers carefully cut out the embroidery that was beautifully applied more than 100 years ago, transfer it to a new cloth, and restore the frayed embroidery to its original form, playing an important role in allowing it to be passed down to the present generation. You can see the frayed embroidery before and after repair at 1:55 in the video. Nihon Shishu (日本刺繍), a traditional Japanese craft that restores embroidery, embroiders patterns such as flowers and birds on silk using silk thread, gold thread, and silver thread, and is a historical decorative technique that is also used for decorating kimono and obi. This type of embroidery restoration involves re-stitching gold thread or stitching new thread. This video shows how the embroidery artisans use traditional Nihon Shishu techniques, such as Sagara-nui and Matsuri-nui, without using adhesives, in order to "connect the beauty of the past to the present. The Embroidery Artisan Supporting Traditional Japanese Crafts Source :YouTube screenshot Hisamitsu Imamura, an embroiderer introduced in the video, is still moved by traditional Japanese embroidery, despite being 80 years of age and is trying to improve his techniques. He also focuses on training young embroiderers so that they may inherit Japan's traditional embroidery techniques. The embroiderers who work in the workshop, both experienced artisans and beginners, learn while feeling the beauty of Japanese embroidery, and by repairing it, they find reward in being able to preserve the past. Summary of Japan's Traditional Embroidery Restoration Source :YouTube screenshot No two embroidery restorations are the same; each piece is a once-in-a-lifetime work whose composition changes depending on the condition of the embroidery and the damage the fabric has sustained. As you can see at the end of the video, the delicate work of the embroidery artisans, who put their hearts and souls into each and every stitch, are connecting the beauty of the past to the present. -

The Different Cuts of Kobe Beef Shown in the Video Photo:Tajima cattle The Kobe beef served at "Yakiniku Yoshimi" in Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture, introduced in the video, is a brand name of beef that is used when meat from Tajima cattle (Japanese black cattle) produced in Hyogo Prefecture meet certain standards. Kobe beef is well known not only in Japan, but also in Europe and the United States, and has been selected as one of the three major Japanese beef breeds. Kobe beef has many different names in Japanese, sometimes going by the English "Kobe Beef" or "神戸ビーフ" (kobe beef transliterated) "神戸肉" (kobe niku), and "神戸牛" (kobe gyu). All of these mean the same thing, however. The Requirements of Kobe Beef Photo:Wagyu beef There is a clear definition of Kobe beef which refers to beef that has been carefully selected from Tajima cattle. Whether the meat is Kobe beef or not is determined at the time of shipping, which means there is no such thing as live Kobe beef. In addition, only heifers (females that have not yet given birth) and male castrates are recognized as Kobe beef. On top of that, the Beef Marbling Score (BMS) value must be No. 6 or higher, with a carcass weight of 270-499.9 kg for females and 300-499.9 kg for males. Carcasses with flaws are judged by the Kobe Meat Marketing Promotion Council to determine whether they are Kobe beef or not. Check Out the Delicious Kobe Beef in the Video! Photo:Kobe beef, wagyu As you can see from 1:16 in the video, Kobe beef has beautiful and vivid "marbling" with a reddish color, and the meat is characterized by its mildness and richness. Kobe beef is stamped with an image of a chrysanthemum as proof that it is Kobe beef. The name "Kobe Beef" and its logo are registered as trademarks, and in order to use them, you need to have the trademark rights held by the Kobe Beef Marketing and Distribution Promotion Association. Summary of Japan’s Exquisite Kobe Beef Photo:Kobe beef teppanyaki The delicious Kobe beef introduced in the video is enough to make one's mouth water just by looking at it.

Takekiri Eshiki - A Ritual at Kurama-Dera Temple Where the Monks Work Together To Cut Thick Bamboo Likened To Snakes! Experience the Exciting Ritual With More Than 1,000 Years of History!

Takekiri Eshiki - The Bamboo-Cutting Ritual of Kurama-Dera Temple! This video, titled "Kyoto Festival Bamboo Cutting Ritual at Kurama-dera (Takekirie)," was created by "Discover Kyoto." The video shows Takekiri Eshiki, a bamboo-cutting ritual at Kurama-dera Temple in Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture. The bamboo-cutting ritual has been carried out at Kurama-dera Temple for over 1,000 years, making it one of the oldest rituals in Kyoto. The monks dress in armor donned by the warrior monks of old, and energetically hack away at the thick bamboo stalks. You can hear the cheers from visitors to the temple as the monks perform the ritual. A Closer Look at Kurama-Dera's Bamboo-Cutting Ritual Source :YouTube screenshot The bamboo-cutting ritual is known in Japanese as "Takekiri Eshiki" (竹伐り会式). The ritual originates from a legend that Buen Shonin, a monk from the early Heian Period, was training on Mt. Kurama when a massive snake appeared. Through the power of Buddhism, the monk successfully defeated the snake. During the ritual, 4-meter-long and 10-centimeter-thick green bamboo is likened to the snake from the legend, and two groups of monks wield machete-like blades and compete to slice the bamboo in the shortest amount of time. The event also holds significance in that it expresses an appreciation for water, acts as a prayer to exorcise evil, and promotes triumph of truth. It is a soul-stirring and exciting tradition indeed. More About Kurama-Dera's Bamboo Cutting Ritual Source :YouTube screenshot The event kicks off with a performance by the children, as they dances in front of the main shrine building. Following this, the bamboo-cutting ritual is held by the monks. The Kurama monks are divided into the Omi (近江座, omiza) of Shiga Prefecture and the Tamba (丹波座, tamba-za) of Kyoto and Hyogo Prefectures. The monks who win the race to slice the bamboo pole, crowned the shoubu-giri (勝負伐り), finish the ritual by letting out a quick victory cry while running towards the head temple. It is said that between the Omi and the Tamba (Tanba), the winning region will be blessed with a bountiful harvest. From 4:16 in the video, you can see the monks hacking away at the bamboo stalks. Other Popular Sightseeing Destinations in Kyoto! Photo:A woman with a Japanese umbrella walking through Kifune Shrine If you're visiting Mt. Kurama, definitely take the chance to stop by Kifune Shrine (貴船神社, kifune jinja). After enjoying the beautiful natural scenery at Kifune Shrine, where the deity of water is enshrined, we recommend trying the dining experience over the riverbed!

A Beautiful Craftswoman Speaks of the Charms of Traditional Japanese Dyeing and Weaving; How the Techniques Have Been Passed Down Over Millennia
Traditional Crafts- 262 plays
- YouTube
Traditional Japanese Dyeing and Weaving Source :YouTube screenshot ANA Global Channel aired the video "Artisan of traditional dyeing/Interview - IS JAPAN COOL? CRAFTSMANSHIP" (Artisan of traditional dyeing/Interview - IS JAPAN COOL? CRAFTSMANSHIP(染織家)) featuring female artisan Sarasa Yoshioka. Dyeing and weaving originated in China, India, Rome and Greece, and was introduced to Japan in the 3rd century AD. In the video (2:35), Yoshioka says that the technique is mentioned in the old text "Manyoshu" and the "Engishiki" (a Japanese book about laws and customs) which were both completed during the Heian period (794-1185). The Engishiki documented the ancient dyeing recipes. Having been designated as Intangible Cultural Property, dyeing and weaving technique and textiles such as Kimono and Obi are the important traditional crafts. In this video, female artisan Sarasa Yoshioka, talks about the history of dyeing, a traditional Japanese craft, and her passion for it. It also captures her superior artisanal skills. Magical Patterns Hand-Dyed by Artisans Source :YouTube screenshot There are two main types of dyeing and weaving: Sakizome- in which yarns are dyed first and then woven, and Atozome- in which the cloth is dyed after it is woven. The former is represented by these Kimono makers in the form of Yu-kitsumugi, Nishijin, and Nishikiori. Examples of the latter include Kyo-yu-zen and Kagayu-zen which are known for the splendid picturesque patterns. Sakizome requires a higher skill level than Atozome, and thus Sakizome textiles cost more. The Methods and Materials of Traditional Japanese Dyeing and Weaving Colors are most commonly extracted from plant sources such as roots, tree bark, and nuts. Yoshioka says the plants that are hard to grow are typically supplied by contracted experts (2:08). Indigo dye is one of the oldest and most common dyes to be used for textile dying. Since Indigo has antibacterial and insect repellent effects, it is thought that people wore indigo dyed clothing to keep insects and infections away. The Role of Dyers and Their Delicate Craftsmanship Source :YouTube screenshot The Heian period (794-1185) was the peak of the Japanese Imperial court and aristocratic culture. The garments wore by the upper classes were made by dyeing and weaving artisans. For this reason, dye artisans at that time held a high position in Japan's hierarchical society. The garments wore by the present day Emperor and Empress in the court functions are still made using this traditional technique. These formal court dresses, such as Sokutai and Junihitoe, can only be handmade since the delicate weaving cannot be done by machines. Automated weaving machines were imported to Japan during the Meiji period (1868-1912) and silk textiles were designated as a main industry. Being inferior to the Great Powers in the heavy industries, Japan relied on the techniques of the dyeing and weaving artisans to acquire foreign currency, with the aim of becoming a member of the Great Powers. The Future of Dyeing and Weaving The dyeing and weaving industry, which is both time and labor intensive, has been on the decline for quite some time. Today, however, the increasing number of universities or fashion design schools integrate it in the school curriculum in order to prevent the traditional craft from dying out. The number of young people apprenticed to a dyeing and weaving artisan is also increasing little by little. Kimono, obi, tenugui and other textile products are popular as souvenirs of Japan's overseas markets, and the more opportunities there are for dyed fabric weavers to play an active role, the more likely they are to pass on this traditional Japanese craft to future generations. Traditional Dyeing and Weaving: An Academic Point of View Photo:Dyed goods You may imagine that dyeing and weaving is mainly based on tough outdoor work, but it is also an embodiment of highly developed chemistry. As seen in the video, the majority of plant dyes requires the use of mordant such as vinegar or natural alum to enhance and fix the color in the textile fibers. In other words, dyers obtain the brilliant colors through chemical reactions between the materials. Dye artisans imagine the final product before they even begin. "The color we want to achieve is decided from the beginning, and we use our experience and sense to adjust the color closer to the desired color" says Yoshioka (7:05). In order to achieve the client's desired color, the weavers use all of their wisdom as artisans. Yoshioka says that obtaining the color desired by clients is "a mission given to dye artisans" (7:47). It is not only fabrics, yarns of silk, linen and cotton she dyes, but also washi papers. Every year, she spends the winter months dyeing papers to dedicate to the Buddhist ceremony held at To-daiji Temple in Nara prefecture (5:58). Summary of Japanese Traditional Dyeing and Weaving The video features a dyeing and weaving artisan, Sarasa Yoshioka who works in the Kyoto-based atelier "Somenotsukasa Yoshioka." Sticking to the traditions, the atelier uses only plants dyes and the traditional dyeing method. Dyestuffs are soaked and simmered in the pure spring water of Fushimi (a district in Kyoto), pumped up from 100 meters underground. In this method, a variety of colors and shades can be obtained with the same dye, and the delicacy of dyed fabric is beautiful. In this article, we introduced the history of dyeing, its production methods, origins, and the raw materials used, alongside the interview with craftswoman, Sarasa Yoshioka. In the video, you can see and hear more of what she has to say and also take a look at her technique. Be sure to check it out! Traditional Japanese textiles are available online at retailers such as amazon or rakuten. Using the traditional crafts will lead you to appreciate the value of the traditional craft, as well as the skills of its artisans. 【Official Website】Somenotsukasa Yoshioka https://www.textiles-yoshioka.com/eng/ -
