no kitchen chat

閒話家常

But it's only gonna be a really short one because I have about an hour and a bit

但它只會是一個非常短的，因為我有大約一個小時，有點

until I have to go to Tokyo Creative and shoot a video with them

直到我必須去東京創意公司和他們一起拍攝一個視頻

so I thought let's just sneak a little quick kitchen chat.

所以我想讓我們偷偷地在廚房裡聊一聊。

this apron was on sale at Nitori for like

這條圍裙在NITORI打折的時候，只需要花點錢。

six bucks. So the plan for today is I'm gonna make agemochi

六塊錢。所以今天的計劃是我要做agemochi。

I went to Ibaraki and I went to a festival and I got to try out agemochi

我去了茨城，參加了一個節慶活動，還試吃了agemochi。

Which their version of it was they deep-fried a big chunk of mochi and the outside went crispy and the inside

他們的說法是他們把一大塊麻糬炸得外焦裡嫩。

Stayed chewy and then they put some kind of dashi on top with seaweeds now

嚼勁十足，然後他們在上面放了一些海帶，現在又放了一些海苔。

I've been thinking about that agemochi since it happened. It was so so good

自從那個agemochi發生後，我就一直在想。真是太好了

I've never had anything like it

我從來沒有吃過這樣的東西

So I have like four bits of mochi

所以我有四塊麻糬

That I found in the cupboard that I want to try and figure something out with so I'm gonna do a few test runs

我在櫃子裡找到的，我想試著找出一些東西，所以我要做一些測試。

try different kinds of agemochi and

嚐嚐不同種類的餈粑和

See what I can do. So with agemochi

看我能做什麼。所以，與agemochi

Age, it just means like fried and mochi is mochi

歲月，它只是意味著像油炸和麻糬是麻糬

You might be used to the mochi that you might find at your local supermarket or at like a sushi store or something

你可能已經習慣了在當地超市或者壽司店之類的地方找到的麻糬

that's quite chewy,

那是相當有嚼頭的。

Well, this is it in the hard version.

嗯，這是它的硬版。

This stuff is very hard.

這東西非常難。

I remember when I first came to Japan

我記得我第一次來日本的時候

I was super excited to try mochi and I went to Daiso and they had -um- Kagami mochi or New Year's mochi

我很想嚐嚐麻糬，就去了大創，他們有-um-神麻糬或新年麻糬。

I bought some cuz I was like "Oh mochi, I love it," and it it it's this form

我買了一些，因為我很喜歡 "哦，年糕，我喜歡"，而且它是這種形式的

You know

你知道嗎？

it's like a

就像

Little mound of hard mochi and I tried to like bite into it cuz I was like, "Is this even edible?"

一團團的硬餈粑，我想咬一口，因為我想，"這能吃嗎？"

Maybe it's wax or something and I tried to bite into it. It needs to be cooked

也許是蠟還是什麼，我試著咬了一口。它需要被煮熟

this kind of watching needs to be cooked to start off with so just

這種看病需要熟能生巧，所以只需

A little PSA out there for anybody who wants to bite into the stuff. Don't do it

一個小小的公益廣告，給任何想咬東西的人。不要這樣做

So mochi actually does some really interesting things when you fry it

所以麻糬在炸的時候會有一些很有趣的事情發生。

So I'm gonna show you a couple of different things that you can do with it

所以我將向你展示一些不同的事情，你可以用它來做。

But overall I'm attempting to get that crunchy outside, chewy inside put some broth on it have a taste

但總的來說，我是想讓它外脆裡嫩，有嚼頭，放點肉湯在上面，嚐嚐看吧

That's the goal. All the recipes online that I found are different

這就是我們的目標。我在網上找到的所有食譜都是不同的。

They're either for like a little crispy like little snack treats or they're for like a a broth

他們要麼是為了像一個小脆皮 像小點心治療 或者他們是為了像一個肉湯

But with just a stringy mochi, no crispyness. I have no idea

但只帶著一股子麻餈味，沒有清脆感。我也不知道

so just gonna do my best.

所以只是要去做我最好的。

So things I will be using in this recipe are

是以，我將使用的東西在這個配方是

mochi

麻糬

Canola oil. Sorry the oil's kind of big so it doesn't fit in the camera

菜籽油。對不起，油有點大，所以相機裡裝不下了

Dashi. Now I got this kind of dashi - It just says dashi like a soup stock, but I have no idea

菓子現在，我得到了這種dashi--它只是說dashi像一個湯湯水水，但我不知道。

what kind of stuff they used when I ate the mochi at the festival and

他們用什麼樣的東西，當我吃了麻糬在節日和

finally

終於

I've just got some little slivers of seaweed because they sprinkled those on top and they looked really nice and they're tasty too

我只是拿了一些小片的海苔 因為他們在上面撒了那些東西 看起來真的很不錯，而且也很好吃。

So these are just soy sauce flavored seaweed and that's it. So uh

所以這些只是醬油味的海苔，僅此而已。所以，呃...

because of there's so few ingredients

因為成分太少

I hope that this goes really well and it's really easy because we do not have much time cuz I gotta go to work

我希望這一切都很順利，而且很簡單，因為我們的時間不多，因為我得去上班。

Also, I apologize for how stained the pot is, it's just stains it's clean but uh

還有，我為鍋子的汙漬道歉，只是汙漬而已，很乾淨，但是...

Yeah over a long time of use, I just can't get some of the stains on the outside off

是啊，經過長時間的使用，我就是不能把外面的一些汙漬去掉。

Okay, so I'm gonna add in some amount of the oil

好吧，所以我要加入一些量的油。

Not too much. Let's go for

不要太多。我們走吧

So I'm just gonna let that heat up a while that heats up. I'm going to

所以，我只是要讓熱了一段時間，熱起來。我將

first of all, do a type of agemochi, which is kind of like

首先，做一個類型的agemochi，這是一種像

rice puffs ? I don't know quite how to explain it. It's kind of like a little snack

飯糰？我不知道該怎麼解釋。有點像一種小零食

Maybe you could have a little ball of these. I guess you could call it like mochi popcorn or something

也許你可以有一個小球的這些。我想你可以叫它像麻糬爆米花或什麼的

Oh also, I think you should just be able to break these.

哦，還有，我覺得你應該可以打破這些。

Oh yeah

哦，對了

Interesting. Oh, it smells like rice. So the first thing you need to do is just chop up the mochi into quite small

有意思哦，有米飯的味道。所以你要做的第一件事就是把麻糬切成很小的塊狀

sized pieces doesn't matter if they're

塊的大小並不重要，如果它們是。

Misshapen or irregular

畸形或不規則

Probably go for about this size

大概就這個尺寸吧

Okay, and after you have chopped them

好了，你把它們切碎之後

You just put them in frying oil. So I'm gonna give it a go and see if it's hot enough

你只要把它們放在煎油裡就可以了。所以，我要去給它一個嘗試，看看它的熱度是否足夠。

here's hoping

但願

Okay, yeah

好吧，是的

So I'm just gonna do a few of them and see how they go

所以，我只是要做一些他們，看看他們如何去。

Probably should have a little more oil in there because I want them to be submerged but doesn't really matter

可能應該多放點油在裡面，因為我想讓它們浸泡在水中，但並不重要。

And so you should be able to see that. They don't stay the same shape. They kind of - see they're like puffing up

所以你應該能夠看到這一點。他們不保持相同的形狀。他們那種 - 看到他們就像膨脹起來

*giggling*

*咯咯笑

They don't take very long honestly, usually I wait for them to be a little bit more brown, but they feel pretty done honestly

老實說，它們不需要很長時間，通常我都是等它們稍微變黃一點，但老實說，它們感覺已經很好了。

*more giggling*

*更多的傻笑

They puffin and we just go with these guys. Oh, yeah they do they do puff oopsie

他們撲騰，我們只是去與這些傢伙。哦，是的，他們這樣做，他們做的膨化opopsie。

So here they are. They're um, they're a little bit cute. They're all puffed up now

所以在這裡，他們是。他們是嗯，他們是一個有點可愛。他們都膨大了現在

I'm gonna add a little bit of salt to mine and I think I can just try them like that.

我打算在我的裡面加一點鹽，我想我可以就這樣試試。

Here they are

在這裡，他們是

that's the kind of sound that they are

這就是他們的聲音。

Mmm

嗯

Because I didn't cook it so long they're actually still chewy so it's a crispy and then a chewy I'm gonna add more salt

因為我沒有煮那麼久，它們其實還是很有嚼勁的，所以它是一個脆的，然後一個有嚼勁的我要加更多的鹽。

Is so good I reckon that if I did like a big bowl of this like you could make it sweet or savory

是這麼好，我估計，如果我做喜歡一大碗這個喜歡你可以使它甜或鹹的

Just with salt is good but

只是用鹽是好的，但

Mean, if you did like caramel or something you could have like it's like caramel popcorn, but it's like chewy.

意思是，如果你喜歡焦糖什麼的，你可以有像 它像焦糖爆米花，但它像咀嚼。

Aw man I

噢，夥計，我

Wanna eat more of that

想吃更多的東西嗎？

That is so easy. You literally just cut it up and put it in the oil

這是很容易的。你只要把它切開，放在油裡就可以了

Amazing. Actually, I forgot I shall make some dashi. Oh my gosh, they're huge

驚人的。其實，我忘了我要做一些魚湯。哦，我的天，他們是巨大的

This is four people's worth. Oh man. This is too much dashi for me. Let's do like half of it

這是四個人的價值。哦，夥計。這對我來說是太多的dashi。讓我們做像它的一半

It's fine I'll just I'll just do it that much

沒關係，我只是... ...我只是... ...我只是做了這麼多

Haven't got time, so I'm not like fully researching how to do the dashi, but I'm trying my best

我沒有時間，所以我不喜歡完全研究如何做dashi，但我正在努力。

I'm just gonna cook it so that the

我只是要去烹調它，所以

soup stock fully disintegrates

湯圓

So I'm gonna cook the dashi and I'm gonna do a tester on

所以，我要把魚湯煮熟，然後做一個測試器。

About half or like the leftover half of the mochi that I just used. So I'm just gonna put this hop straight in some oil

大約一半或像剩下的一半的麻糬，我只是用。所以，我只是要去把這個跳直接在一些油

and see if I can cook the outside but not

看看能不能把外面的東西煮爛

The inside but cook it- cook the inside enough for it to still be like stringy

裡面的東西，但是要煮熟，煮熟了裡面的東西，才會有筋道的感覺

So while the oil heats up, I'll tell you about my life. Recently

所以趁著油熱，我給你講講我的生活。最近

I went to Okutama River with some friends and

我和幾個朋友一起去了奧多瑪河。

We went in like stayed in a cabin and it was super cute and we like cooked food on the fly. It was stupid

我們去的時候就像住在一個小木屋裡，它是超級可愛的，我們喜歡煮食物的飛行。這是愚蠢的

It's sizzling a little bit

有點熱了

Also, this is a test run

此外，這是一個測試運行

So if this goes well, I'll do like two big ones and like present it nicely and eat it. But yeah life -uh- life lately

如果順利的話，我會做兩個大的，然後把它很好地呈現出來，然後吃掉它。但是，是的生活，呃，最近的生活

it's been really good my

這真是太好了，我的

心理健康一直很好。我正在重新裝修客廳的區域。

You can't see behind you, but you have a couch behind you

你看不見身後的情況，但你身後有一張沙發。

But I'm doing a whole other video on that

但我正在做一個完整的另一個視頻上，

just need to get a few more things to set up and then they'll be a video showing you the new living room area for

只是需要得到一些更多的東西來設置，然後他們將是一個視頻展示你的新客廳區域，為。

maybe I can do a flip

也許我可以做一個翻轉

I do have to be careful though

不過我得小心點

because

因為

It likes to pop. I know that the mochi that I had was very dark on the outside and I'm like

它喜歡爆裂。我知道我吃過的麻糬外面很黑，我就像。

How did they do that? How do they get the darkness? Because all my mochi is very white

他們是怎麼做到的？他們是怎麼做到黑的？因為我的麻糬都是很白的

It's starting to brown up. That's kind of what I'm looking for

它開始褐色了。這正是我所要找的東西

It's pretty cute I like how it puffed up at the top and I guess I'm just gonna

很可愛，我喜歡它在頂部膨大的樣子，我想我只是會

Dip it in some dashi and hope for the best

蘸點魚湯，希望能有好的效果

*gasp as mochi falls to the ground*

*餈粑掉在地上的時候，我就驚呆了

You didn't see that.

你沒有看到。

It's the sound

這是聲音

Pop-pop. Sorry, I've been watching too many ASMR videos lately. I just gave it a dip in uh in the

啪啪啪對不起，我最近看了太多的ASMR視頻。我只是給它一個浸在呃在

In the soup, so hopefully this works out

在湯裡，所以希望這個工作了。

Itadakimasu~

Itadakimasu~

The inside is cooked. it's very true it's not stringy but it's chewy. this is this is pretty much it I think

裡面是熟的.很真實不粘稠但很有嚼勁.這個就是這個我覺得差不多了

This kid's keep dipping it in the soup. Maybe I should just serve it in soup

這孩子一直把它浸在湯裡。也許我應該把它放在湯裡

It's only one thing it is a very heavy meal

只是有一點，它是一個非常沉重的飯菜。

Don't like eating like delicious chewy salty

不喜歡吃好吃的有嚼頭的鹹味的東西

Better than play-doh. What would it be? I dunno it is a lot, but it's super delicious

比橡皮泥好。會是什麼呢？我不知道是很多，但它是超級美味的。

So I think the first method is good if you want like a little mochi snack

所以我覺得第一種方法很好，如果你想吃小麻餈的話。

Have it while you watch TV, add some flavors? Have a good time?

看電視的時候吃，加點口味？玩得開心嗎？

And this one I think is meant to be like more of like

而這個我覺得是要像更多的像的。

Either like an izakaya meal or like a little side meal or something

要麼像居酒屋的飯菜，要麼像個小配菜之類的。

I don't think this could be a whole meal. If you just base your whole meal around a big slab of mochi

我不認為這可以成為一整餐。如果你只是圍繞著一大塊麻糬來做一頓飯的話

You're gunna feel so

你會覺得很

heavy and sick. It's crazy. Maybe I should do a little mini agemochi and like cut this in half

又重又病。這是瘋了。也許我應該做一個小 迷你agemochi和喜歡切這個一半。

maybe cut two of them in half put two of them in dashi and serve them nicely and then I could be done finally and

也許可以把它們切成兩半 放在魚湯裡，然後把它們很好地端上來 然後我就可以完成了，而且

Then I can go to work

然後我就可以去工作了

We knew that in the amount of time I have I think that's possible.
