I’ve used Tamaki Gold, Kagayaki Select, Shirakiku koshihikari, and some actually genuine imported Japanese rice and they were amazing. I’ve also used mid tier, medium grain like Sekka, Kokuo Rose etc - no. My middle of the road that I always go back to is Nishiki - u don’t have to rinse it copious amts of times (they actually say u don’t have to), it’s right amt of stickiness, but still has separateness and bounce and chew, and the aroma is pretty neutral. It’s the Japanese inspired rice I reach for when I don’t want to have to think, and the price point is great.
Cute 🥰 I’m glad you guys had fun at the import market! My Dad used to send me back stuff when he’d work overseas and it was always fun. It’s just funny even in Florida he always missed the sea food! So as a kid he’d have to go catch and make some for us. Cooking together is something my Dad and I always did and we cook a lot of Asian food (because he never told me he was Vietnamese and being from a small rural town he was the only Vietnamese person there 😅) I just assumed it was ALL Japanese 😂. Learning where my Dad was from when I was older cleared up a lot of cooking preferences like why my cooking was WAY too spicy for some of my Dads few japanese guests he had over when I was young and the biggest one was why no one could pick out my Dad from his photos with his coworkers on the wall or like thought it was his family 😅? American south I guess 😂. Regardless it’s fun and was nice 😊
I watch your videos to bring my BP down and my spirits up…… you’re a real gem. Also, my son lives in Japan. If you want something they don’t carry, lemme know.
The eel looks delish! I wish we had a market like this in Central Illinois. I have learned a lot from your videos! You always seem to enjoy making food!
You have to go to Japan. It's a pretty cheap vacation locale and Disney Sea out does all other Disney parks. Oh, don't forget to try every Kit Kat flavor you can. Go down south to Okinawa for snorkeling in 3' bathtub water with colorful fish galore! Also try all you can eat Yakiniku(grilled meats) restaurants you cook at your own table. Most places you pay by the hour.
Awww so you do have a girlfriend…I’ll have to tell my daughter she is outta luck😂🤣😂🤣 She and I both LOVE the Asian Markets…our Asian Market in Louisiana is MASSIVE and modern.
Definitely enjoyed seeing the market and what they offer. I've never had eel or octopus. Where did you first have eel snd octopus? You're an adventurous eater I'm not sure I could try those dishes without someone to explain what they taste like first. 😂👍
Is it a little bit sweet? Salty? Just right? How is it different from Mayo here in the US?? We have a very large Asian population here and Kewpi Mayo is everywhere and I’m so curious about it!! But it’s not cheap so I don’t want to get stuck w/something yucky lol.
Bro im doing the opposite. Living in japan for a few months and looked for mexican ingredients here. Super difficult. Made the flour tortillas using your video and truing random japanese flours 🤣
You have a great personality! Glad I found your channel!

It's like being in a Diaso kinda lol I have never had Eel but that looked good.
Definitely enjoyed seeing the market and what they offer. I've never had eel or octopus. Where did you first have eel snd octopus? You're an adventurous eater I'm not sure I could try those dishes without someone to explain what they taste like first. 😂👍

I just discovered japanese mayo. Just WOW.
Is it a little bit sweet? Salty? Just right? How is it different from Mayo here in the US?? We have a very large Asian population here and Kewpi Mayo is everywhere and I’m so curious about it!! But it’s not cheap so I don’t want to get stuck w/something yucky lol.
