  • My Chicken Nanban Recipe is inspired by the original Chicken Nanban at Naochan in Miyazaki Prefecture, Japan. Instead of the usual flour or potato starch coating, this one is coated in egg, which gives the fried chicken a light crispy coating that melts away into flood of savory chicken juices seasoned with the tangy sweet sauce. Served with a citrusy Japanese-style tartar sauce, each bite is packed with contrasting textures and tastes that makes this irresistibly addictive. #friedchicken #japaneserecipe #チキン南蛮

    • @NoRecipes
      @NoRecipes  4 роки тому

      Hi Windianggs, the sake is there to add sweetness and umami to this dish. Since there isn't a great substitute, water will probably be your best bet keeping in mind that you'll be missing out on the umami that the sake contributes.

      The alcohol burns off while cooking, so if you're allowed to eat bread (raw yeast leavened dough naturally contains alcohol) and soy sauce (soy sauce contains 1-2% alcohol as a natural byproduct of fermentation), then I'm not sure why you wouldn't be allowed to use sake for cooking. Unfortunately most common seasonings used in Japanese cuisine (including soy sauce, miso, and sake) contain alcohol due to the fact that they are all fermented.

    Made this and it came out pretty nicely. My chicken wasn't very crispy, though. Kind of soggy and the batter seemed thin. Any suggestions?

    • @NoRecipes
      @NoRecipes  3 роки тому +3

      Hi David, chicken nanban is not supposed to be crispy in the way fried chicken normally is, because it is soaked in a vinegar-based sauce. The goal with using eggs is that the coating doesn't turn to mush and it won't dissolve like it would if you were to use a flour-based coating. As for the batter being thin, you need to get it into the oil with as much egg on it as possible, and then add a drizzle of the egg on top to get the thick fluffy coating off egg around it. If you want a crispy Japanese-style fried chicken, try using either my Karaage or Tebasaki recipes, both are made to be crispy.

    Oh my God! This is just like "Kabiraji Cutlet", an Anglo-Indian delicacy in Kolkata (India). This is a very famous dish from the colonial period. Though the word "kabiraji" means "ayurvedic" or "herbal medicine" but in reality, it is thought to be derived from the English word "coverage", denoting how the cutlet is wrapped around in egg batter bloomed in oil just like you showed in this video. Both chicken and fish (usually white sea fish like Kolkata betki or basa used for the cutlet) cutlets are made this way. This is one of the most popular dishes in wedding ceremonies here. I think it also originated from the Portuguese cuisine as they actually arrived before the British in Kolkata. It is amazing how food everywhere are so versatile and yet we can find something in common.
    PS: In Kolkata, "Kabiraji cutlet" is served with kasundi which is a sauce made of ground mustard seeds (think of it as a more pungent cousin of Dijon mustard) and ketchup. But normal chicken and fish cutlets (coated with breadcrumb and deep-fried) are served with tartar sauce.

      Hi Kamalika, this is super interesting, thank you for sharing! It's funny that you mention the Portuguese, because "Nanban" literally means "southern barbarians" in Japanese and was a name given to the Portuguese at the time of their arrival to Japan in the mid 16th century. The precursor to this modern chicken dish is made with fish, and it can be traced back to a Portuguese dish called Escabeche. If you follow the trail back even further the root word is Persian. I love the history of food because it tells the story of human migration!

    • @NoRecipes
      @NoRecipes  4 роки тому

      Hi Rendy, the sake is here to add umami to the sauce. There isn't a great substitute as no ingredient I'm aware of is going to give you the same subtle sweetness and umami. If you can't get it near you, your best option will be to substitute water. This obviously won't give you the taste, but it also won't throw off the balance of flavors that adding wine or something else would.

      I'm not sure what "normal" mayonnaise is where you're located, but when compared to American Mayonnaise, Kewpie is more eggy and a little more sour. It's actually closer in taste to home made mayonnaise. That being said, normal American mayo will work.

    I compared a few Chicken Nanban recipes, and found that the egg coating technique isn't exactly replicated in some. Is this a Naochan difference as compared to the ones inspired by Ogura, the other stall said to also have first created the dish?

    • @NoRecipes
      @NoRecipes  3 роки тому +1

      I've never been to Ogura personally, but I believe their chicken nanban also uses egg as the batter. I think the issue is similar to that of many dishes that have gone far beyond their initial borders (like chili, stroganoff, etc), and many people that make recipes for it these days have never had the original (whether it be Ogura or Naochan). Most version of the recipe I see (even in Japanese) make the chicken like karaage, but a flour or starch based coating absorbs way too much sauce and gets soft and gummy on the outside. Cooked egg is not water soluble so while the air pockets will absorb the sauce (like a sponge) it will never actually dissolve.

    • @JustaFatBoi
      @JustaFatBoi 3 роки тому

      ​@@NoRecipes Comparing pictures around, it seems like Ogura certainly uses an egg batter as well. But unlike Naochan, they don't have the extra bed of crispy egg. Considering that Chicken Nanban with tartar sauce is the more well known and popular version, I'm guessing Ogura's version was popularised the dish further. Which would explain why not many recipes have that extra crispy egg.
      Your last point about the flour absorbing sauce is very insightful. Thank you.

    • @NoRecipes
      @NoRecipes  3 роки тому +1

      Ogura is based in Miyazaki city (the capital and largest city of the prefecture) and they have several branches. Naochan's is in a smaller city over an hour away from Miyazaki. This could also explain the difference in popularity.

      Hi Rexter2k, I know what you mean, but I have the the levels matched visually in FCPX, is there a better way to do this than trying to matchup the peaks in the audio levels? The other thing this could be is that I have horrible echo in my kitchen due to a high ceiling and tile floors, so I apply a lot of post processing to try and get rid of it. I think this is getting rid of certain frequencies in my voice for the on camera segments, which is why these segments might sound a little dampened. Any advice would be super appreciated! Thanks!
