基礎被動語態

Good morning everyone, I have a fun one for you today because I'm taking you behind the counter at a super local family-run fugu restaurant. This is actually the first time I've ever seen it in person so I'm excited to take you along for the ride. All we have to do now is just wait for the fugu to arrive. In Tokyo's super local Sumiyoshi Ginza shopping street, located just three minutes from Sumiyoshi station, you'll find a family-owned live fugu specialty restaurant, Koshiji. Fugu, also called pufferfish or blowfish, is a luxury food dish in Japan, most famously known for its poisonous organs that, if eaten, can easily lead to death and why only licensed chefs are able to prepare it. Today I'm taking you behind the counter to show you how this deadly fish is served in

大家早上好，今天我給大家帶來了一個有趣的節目，因為我要帶大家去當地一家超級家庭經營的河豚餐館的櫃檯後面看看。事實上，這是我第一次親眼看到河豚，所以我很興奮能帶大家一起去。現在我們要做的就是等待河豚的到來。在距離住吉站僅三分鐘車程的東京超級在地住吉銀座商業街上，有一家家族經營的活河豚專賣店 Koshiji。河豚又稱河豚或河豚魚，是日本的一種奢侈美食，最著名的是它的內臟有毒，吃了很容易導致死亡，是以只有持證廚師才能製作河豚。今天，我將帶您到櫃檯後面，看看這種致命的魚在日本是如何烹製的。

程度副詞

Japan. Good morning! Hey wait, are we supposed to get the fugu delivery right now? I actually just got into the car and I thought they were going to be delivering the fugu this morning, but as it turns out, the shop waited to take me along for the fugu pickup. A bit unexpected, but I'm always down for a ride to the Toyosu fish market. So this is Yamada-san, the first generation owner who started the fugu shop, and this is his son. So everyone is family here, right?

日本。早上好嘿，等等，我們現在就該去拿河豚了嗎？其實我剛上車，還以為他們今天早上會送河豚，結果店家等著我一起去取河豚。雖然有點出乎意料，但我還是願意搭車去豐洲魚市場。這位是開河豚店的第一代店主山田先生，這位是他的兒子。大家都是一家人，對吧？

I have an older brother, a younger sister, and a son. I also have another son.

我有一個哥哥、一個妹妹和一個兒子。我還有一個兒子。

And here we are, Toyosu fish market, which is generally closed to the public.

我們來到了豐洲魚市場，這裡一般不對外開放。

So he first disposes of the doku, poison from the fugu, removed from the previous days.

是以，他首先要處理掉前幾天從河豚身上解下的毒。

Apparently you can't just throw out toxic organs as you would regular food waste in Japan, but rather it must be brought to a place like this for proper disposal.

顯然，在日本，你不能像丟棄普通食物垃圾那樣隨意丟棄有毒器官，而是必須把它們帶到這樣的地方進行妥善處理。

Now the family heads to the live market to buy their fugu.

現在，一家人要去活魚市場買河豚。

So Yamada-san has been running his fugu restaurant for 45 years now, and at the age of 75, he's slowly handing over the reins to his children and grandchildren, while ever appreciating their time spent together, even at the market, at one of the few Tokyo licensed fugu wholesalers.

山田先生經營他的河豚餐館已經有 45 年了，75 歲的他正慢慢地把韁繩移交給他的子孫，但他永遠珍惜他們在一起的時光，即使是在市場上，在東京為數不多的特許河豚批發商之一。

Oh wow, it's a special day then! The vendors must be happy to see him.

哇，今天真是個特殊的日子！小販們見到他一定很高興。

Oh, they're buying fugu, shirako, and fillets for the side dishes.

哦，他們在買河豚、白子和魚片做配菜。

Shirako, also known as milt or soft roe, is a highly prized food item in Japan, and often sold even in apartment stores.

白子（Shirako）又稱粟子或軟子，是日本非常珍貴的食品，甚至在公寓商店裡也經常出售。

Now they're gonna visit another one of the regular vendors to see if they can make more purchases.

現在，他們要去另一個固定商販那裡，看看能不能買到更多的東西。

Oh, I guess they're already sold out for today.

哦，我猜今天的票已經賣完了。

At least Yamada-san got to reconnect with some of his old vendors.

至少，山田先生還能和他的一些老供應商重新建立聯繫。

I'm going fishing. This is the main part of the market.

我要去釣魚。這是市場的主要部分。

Wet whistles! It's a massive fish tank area filled with fugu!

溼哨！這是一個巨大的魚缸區，裡面裝滿了河豚！

All the fish purchased are gathered here, categorized by the buyers, and then loaded into the truck with seawater.

所有購買的魚都集中在這裡，由買家進行分類，然後裝入裝有海水的卡車。

Apparently, fugu is most popular and naturally in season during the winter, so the shop visits the market two to three times a week, while out of season there's less demand, so the shop visits the market about once a week.

顯然，河豚在冬季最受歡迎，自然也是銷售旺季，是以該店每週會去市場兩到三次，而在淡季，需求量較少，是以該店大約每週去市場一次。

In general though, compared to other types of fish restaurants, everyday visits are not required, since the shop has their own tanks to keep the fugu fresh at all times.

一般來說，與其他類型的魚餐廳相比，由於店裡有自己的魚缸，可以隨時保持河豚的新鮮，是以不需要每天都去。

The shirakodo is only available during the winter.

Oh snap! And what's the market price for one?

Now, everyone works quickly as a team to move all of the fugu to the shop's tanks, where they're kept until just before they're prepared.

現在，每個人都像一個團隊一樣迅速把所有河豚都搬到店裡的水箱裡，在那裡一直保存到準備烹飪之前。

So Yamada-san, along with his wife, originally started a seafood shop, but after four years, turned it exclusively into a fugu shop, and it eventually turned into a family business in the truest sense.

是以，山田先生和他的妻子最初開了一家海鮮店，但四年後，他們把這家海鮮店改成了河豚店，最終成為了真正意義上的家族企業。

Yamada-san says that he never expected his children to join the business, but is truly grateful for all of their support over the years.

山田先生說，他從未想過自己的孩子會加入企業，但他真心感謝他們多年來的支持。

And that's Yamada-san's wife, aka the female master, in Japanese, Okami.

這就是山田先生的妻子，也就是日語中的女主人，Okami。

Over time, she's mastered how to skillfully grill the fins of the fugu, which is used to make the traditional Japanese hot sake drink called hirezake.

隨著時間的推移，她掌握瞭如何巧妙地燒烤河豚的鰭，而河豚的鰭是用來製作日本傳統的熱清酒飲料 "hirezake "的。

She says that each fugu has four different sizes of fin, so it's critical to master how each one is grilled under the intense heat for perfect results.

她說，每條河豚都有四種不同大小的鰭，是以掌握每種鰭在高溫下的烤制方法至關重要，這樣才能烤出完美的效果。

Oh, these are the freshly cut fins before they're grilled, and they need to be dried now.

哦，這些是剛切好的鰭，還沒烤熟，現在需要晾乾。

It takes about three days to completely dry in sunny conditions.

在陽光充足的條件下，完全乾燥大約需要三天時間。

The fins are used in the hot sake to create a unique and distinct flavor, and demonstrates how much effort goes into using every consumable part of the fugu.

在熱清酒中使用魚鰭可以產生一種獨特的風味，這也體現了在使用河豚的每一個可食用部分時所付出的努力。

Around 11.30am, the family finally have a lunch break together.

上午 11 點半左右，一家人終於可以一起午休了。

在此之前，你還做過其他事情嗎？

I'll let them eat their lunch in peace, but as soon as they're done, let me ask another question.

我會讓他們安靜地吃午飯，但他們一吃完，我就再問一個問題。

那麼，午餐後你通常會做什麼呢？

Ah, the entire family lives in the building!

Now, a couple hours before the first dinner reservation, the family starts their prep.

現在，在預訂第一頓晚餐的幾個小時前，全家人就開始準備了。

The son starts with cutting the Hakusai cabbage for the hot pot.

兒子首先要切好火鍋用的白菜。

He himself originally worked in accounting, but at 35 decided to work with the family as a chef.

他自己原本從事會計工作，但在 35 歲時決定與家人一起做廚師。

A jellied broth appetizer which uses the fugu skin.

使用河豚皮製作的果凍湯開胃菜。

Damn, that's a lot of love going into preparing a small appetizer!

媽的，準備一道小小的開胃菜，可真是用心良苦啊！

Now, the chef prepares the skin, making sure not to waste any parts.

現在，廚師要準備皮，確保不浪費任何部分。

The skin itself has spikes embedded throughout, which if not removed, would feel like biting into tiny little rocks.

皮膚上到處都是尖刺，如果不拔掉，感覺就像咬在小石頭上一樣。

So the chef spends quite a bit of time and effort to skillfully scrape it off, creating a unique and edible texture.

是以，廚師要花費大量時間和精力，巧妙地將其刮掉，創造出獨特的可食用口感。

So let me ask, has anyone ever got sick here before?

那麼我想問一下，以前有人在這裡得過病嗎？

A lot of people get scared of the poison though.

It's true that poison from fugu is a thousand times stronger than cyanide, so it progresses very rapidly and violently once consumed.

河豚的毒性確實比氰化物強上千倍，所以一旦吃下就會迅速劇烈地發展。

First numbness in the mouth, then vomiting, difficulty breathing, paralysis, and finally death, all within four to six hours.

首先是口腔麻木，然後是嘔吐、呼吸困難、癱瘓，最後死亡，所有這一切都發生在四到六小時之內。

Quite a scary way to go, but due to government licensing, there's only about one death per year in Japan, and usually it's because someone unlicensed decided to prepare it on their own at home.

這種做法相當嚇人，但由於政府頒發了許可證，日本每年大約只有一例死亡，而且通常都是因為無證人員決定自己在家制作。

So yeah, no-brainer, if you're gonna eat fugu in Japan, eat it safely at a chef-licensed restaurant.

所以是的，不用擔心，如果你要在日本吃河豚，一定要在有廚師執照的餐館裡安全地吃。

And here's Yamada-san overseeing the team from the counter.

這是山田先生在櫃檯監督團隊。

So to get a fugu license, you must pass a written and hands-on test after going through a lecture course held at the poison lab.

是以，要想獲得河豚許可證，必須在毒物實驗室參加講座課程後，通過筆試和實際操作考試。

Hey, what are you thinking about while you're cutting?

So how do you feel about them continuing on the family business?

那麼，您對他們繼承家族事業有何看法？

I think it's great that they're sticking with us.

我覺得他們能和我們在一起真是太好了。

We were busy, so everyone helped out and got in naturally.

我們很忙，所以每個人都幫了忙，並自然而然地融入其中。

But I think it's great that they're sticking with us.

但我認為，他們能堅持與我們合作，這很好。

So what do you feel is special about the food here?

您覺得這裡的食物有什麼特別之處？
