    I was happy to discover that gyudon is super easy to make. I like my version of Japanese curry better... I just make it a little less sweet. I like the ramen I tried in Japan too, much more variety and better broths and noodles in Japanese than in the US.
    I think Emma is a softie and likes her fam and friends a lot which is why shabu is so high. 🥰

    You guys rock so please keep these up. My suggestion for the next one would be sauces given there are many are so prevalent in Japanese dishes, I still struggle to make a good gyoza dipping sauce so I would be all ears. I feel Takoyaki is overrated and find the filing tasteless. I cannot always get it here in regional New South Wales thus a reason to experiment. In my opinion that's why they add mayo, tonkatsu sauce, seaweed and bonito flakes to add more flavour. Enjoyed the ratings shootout though bad Emma should have listened to Sarah and elevated Karagge and Gyoza to S...

  • @ItsBAndBees
    @ItsBAndBees 8 місяців тому +1

    I REALLY want to like takoyaki more because I love seafood and in theory it sounds amazing, but here in the states every time I’ve tried it there’s barely any octopus in it, the batter is REALLY sweet, and even though it comes out hot as hell it still seems like the batter is undercooked on the inside…
    And NO nabe is not overrated!! I’ve been craving it ever since the weather cooled off lol
    Last note, Sarah’s cheekbones, hair and makeup were on point in this video and really triggered my girl crush 😂

    Without a doubt you two my favourite TC double team, you just buzz off each other so much.... Saggy prawns 😂
    By the way.. I totally get Sarah's gyoza addiction.. When I learned that Japan doesn't believe in salt n vinegar CRISPS (not chips 😛).. It all made sense.. Fried gyoza and sauce is probably the closest we are going to get to salt n vinegar crisps... Someone needs to get on that.. Hey Sarah, how about some Sarah Salt n Vinegar crisps/chips?

  • @LaloMartins
    @LaloMartins 8 місяців тому +2

    Nah I think the beauty of Ramen is not in being good. Ramen is a star *because* it's everywhere, it's relatively cheap, it's a chonker of a meal, and it's pretty hard to make bad ramen. So it's a reliable choice for when you don't want to decide what to eat, especially in colder weather. But S tier it is not, indeed, even if specific recipes and/or specific shops might be. It's like a burger in America (well not quite because it's pretty easy to make a bad burger, but you know what I mean), or a Dönner in Germany, a burrito in California, fish and chips in England, etc.

Think I was expecting chunks of tuna rather than a thin paste thar you hardly noticed. I will stick with Lawsons triple egg, cheese and tuna sarnies for the next 4 weeks😂

    And if Emma gets less reflux from Indian style curry, maybe try Yuiga Doxon if you're ever in Furano! Not quite Indian style but definitely far less sweet sauce and more herby/spicy than Japanese curry.

    Karaage, gyoza, tempura and curry S tier all the way. I agree on the sukiyaki, shabu shabu, nabe, oden ranking, flavor matters so sukiyaki is an A, the rest are meh. I like mentaiko but it’s probably something you have to grow up eating, otherwise it might seem a little odd. Youshoku is a broad category. Napolitan? Pass. But a good hambagu? Sure, delish. The international ramen craze will probably eventually fade and people will move onto something else. It’s just OK, maybe a B. Onigiri? Come on, who doesn’t like onigiri? I think the Japanese Ministry of Onigiri Enforcement will come to your house and deport you from the country if you don’t like onigiri.

    Having visited Japan, I completely understand being overexposed to ramen. I still love to eat them where I live though, since it's the only decent Japanese food besides sushi you can get here.
    HOWEVER, my opinion would change it if we had any Gyudon or good Tempura or Okonomiyaki or just more variation in general.

    Hanpen isn't egg white, it's a fish cake made from shark meat.
    Mentaiko in Hakata ramen (which isn't in the sac, in my experience), mixed into the broth, is good. Not a fan of eating mentai as the primary ingredient of a dish.
    Japanese curry is meh, I much prefer Thai green curry or Chinese chicken curry.
    For me, the problem with sukiyaki (IIRC, it's been years since I've had it) is that the broth overwhelms everything, so everything winds up tasting kinda the same. Shabu shabu lets me appreciate the individual ingredients on their own merits (albeit with sauces).
    Not ranked, but gyutan, when done well, is at least A-tier. When done not so well, it's D-tier.
    And you are dead wrong about ramen. I don't eat it as much as I used to just because I'm trying to eat healthier, but there was a time when I was eating ramen 2-3x/week, including once for brunch after having it for dinner the night before (same place, Ippudo, which isn't even my favorite). You cite its ubiquity as a reason for having a lower opinion of ramen, but you don't do the same with some of the other dishes, which you seem to be basing their rankings on the best case scenario. Also, there are many styles of ramen, and they're different enough that they might as well be considered different dishes, so "ramen is everywhere" isn't really a good argument for your case. BTW, I would only put Hakata/Kurume/Kitakyushu ramen in S-tier. The other styles are still better than udon and soba soup noodles though.

    • @faristont4561
      @faristont4561 8 місяців тому

      Yea, it's a very weak argument. so what if its everywhere.? it's one of the dish that represents Japan. a national dish. of course it's gonna be available everywhere. and there's countless varieties of ramen, way more than udon and soba combined. there's ramen for everyone. they don't helped themselves with their own points or even try to make it sounds reasonable. just sounds stuck up, "oh because we're right". childish

    Mentaiko was actually invented by Korean fishermen working under a Japanese company. They were given the offal and scraps of the fish they caught that couldn't be sold in the Japanese market as part of their payment, and so it was poor Korean fishermen just making do with what they had available to them who created this iconic Koreo-Japanese dish. At least until corporate realized how popular the dish was becoming among their employees and decided to try it themselves. They loved it and immediately decided that the fishermen could no longer keep their roe sacks and instead started to sell it to the Japanese, taking away the little half decent food they had available to them.
