I live in a small city in Indiana. For some reason, we were taught many Japanese traditions. In 2nd grade we even went to a Japanese garden and had a tea ceramony. So we were taught in school how to eat with chop sticks. I even speak some Japanese.

[@BlueBird0606]

I tried using chopsticks and I couldn’t do it. One night I got super drunk and I want to eat pasta but I didn’t have any forks. So I used chopsticks. I learned how to use it in a drunk mess. Now I’m a pro at using them. I can cook and eat with them like any natural born Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese etc

[@Smoke1]

Thank you for this, you will never understand how much I appreciate it. I've been trying to learn how to use chopsticks for years and every time I give it a go and fail, I end up convincing myself that maybe my brain is not wired correctly to do it.
Today was one of those days when I decided to give it a go and you mentioned something that no one has ever mentioned in my chopstick learning journey - you mentioned that the bottom stick is for support and not meant to move. As soon as I put it to practice all over sudden everything works. I even went and got some rice from my cupboard and I can pick up grains of rice after a few tries.
My wrist at the base of my thumb and the bit on my ring finger where the support chopstick start aching after a minute or two, but I'm sure with practice my fingers will get stronger and I'll have enough confidence to not hold it as tight.
Again, thank you.

[@barbiebarbie1813]

Chopsticks were developed about 5,000 years ago in China. The earliest versions were probably twigs used to retrieve food from cooking pots. Around 400 BC, chefs figured out how to conserve fuel by cutting food into small pieces so it would cook more quickly.
This new method of cooking made it unnecessary to have knives at the dinner table-a practice that also jibed with the non-violent teachings of Confucius, as expressed in one of his numerous quotable quotations: "The honorable and upright man keeps well away from both the slaughterhouse and the kitchen. And he allows no knives on his table."
During the Chinese dynastic times, silver chopsticks were sometimes used because it was believed they would turn black if they came in contact with poisoned food. This practice must have led to some unfortunate misunderstandings-it's now known that silver has no reaction to arsenic or cyanide, but can change color if it comes into contact with garlic, onions, or rotten eggs, all of which release hydrogen sulfide.
By 500 AD, chopsticks had spread to Japan, and Korea. Early Japanese chopsticks were used strictly for religious ceremonies, and were made from one piece of bamboo joined at the top, like tweezers.

[@jesusocampo3236]

Very good historical explanation
Thank you very much 🙏

[@yougotnojams5126]

Its really hard for me to grab something from chopsticks. I'm asian but i grew up abroad so its really embarrassing that i can't use chopsticks during family gathering dinner.
I hope to learn from this.

I grew up in America using both interchangeably but a fork is usually easier. Especially those metal chopsticks. Hard to find ones that aren't so smooth that it's hard to grip things.

[@SimplyDiamond1520]

My mom and I have been so into Chinese and Korean dramas for the past 2 to 3 years, especially Korean. And we get into days where we crave Asia food and try to make or buy as many dishes and set up like the Kdrama. For me particularly it will be so nice and a huge accomplishment to learn and eat meals with chopsticks, that way I’ll feel more Korean in my African body 😊💕. Cuz I so love the culture!

[@blacksorrento4719]

Thank you for this upload.
I spent an evening in Japan with a very patient Japanese man who was sitting alongside us at the restaurant my husband and I were at, trying to teach me.
We had a few laughs at my expense due to my unsuccessful attempts. Eventually I asked for a fork before my meal got cold. However with your tutorial I will endeavour to practice each day, until I become accomplished at eating a full meal without embarrassing myself.

[@mariameldidi8520]

Why does the chopstick between my thumb and the index finger keep slipping upwards

[@mrhandsss]

Mabye u have to hold it tighter

[@Toxic_0_]

Just from some trial and error, I think its the opposite of what the other comment said. I think you need to put very little effort in holding the bottom stick. It seems like tensing the muscle in the thumb just naturally pushes the stick upwards and out of position. Best to let it just sit in the fold of thumb

[@ladybugcuti]

Maybe it because your thumb is moving a lot. You supposed to keep it straight while using them.

[@al1na.fr0]

You have to keep your thumb straight that happened to me too

[@darlynramirez91]

It gets exhausting holding chopsticks lol its awesome though

[@vmoe102]

This happened to me too.... The new chopsticks I got has rounder tips and go to more of a point. Maybe i should stab the food instead

[@osadopon]

I watched this video, following you chopsticks in hand, by the end I was picking muesli out of the bag and out of my palm. Thank you for this simple and straightforward how-to!

[@kenm8376]

You make it simple. Thanks for the video. I'm working on retraining my hand after some significant muscle loss between the trigger finger and the thumb. Sort of using chopsticks as part of physical therapy.

[@yoshithekid18]

I have struggled with this for so long. My hand feels a little cramped but so far over time that feeling is slowly going away as I practice more. Thanks so much!

[@maciejdev]

Thank you for this tutorial, it was very simple to follow compared to other tutorials and I learned how to use chopsticks properly :)
All the best wishes from a Polish person living in UK :)

[@kayceegreer4418]

Thank you so much! I thought I had my technique worked out pretty good but it's still frustrating. I just hadn't figured out to use my first two fingers the same way you showed but I was very close. I feel like a dunderhead, because I never thought to look up a video of How To. I was so close oh, I'm going to be a master now thanks to you.

[@Theodoros.8]

Thank you. I feel this is the best technique out there.
I managed to use it pretty well from the first try.
For the past month i've trained each day by eating some peanuts using chopsticks and now i'm comfortable enough with them.
Big thumbs up!

[@adamjbgames]

I'm one of the few British people who prefers chopsticks to cutlery 😂

[@dirkdiggler9505]

Holy crap! It just clicked for me. Every time I would try using chopsticks I was never able to have force. The chopsticks would constantly slip past each other until I eventually gave up and used a fork. Thanks to this video I finally got it. It's not elegant but it works. Thank you very much, asian lady!

[@sbtmirza329]

Thank you so much!
Best and easiest method ever! Good tutorial!
Kamsahamnida ♥️

[@ThePatrick1118]

Very helpful, thank you. Some other tutorials try to have you only using the thumb, index finger, and middle finger, but your method with the ring finger included adds a lot of needed support.

[@Busybeeee]

Good video! Very straight forward. I do have to say that grabbing small things is not the issue with chopsticks. I struggle with grabbing larger items such as spring rolls or even slippery long noodles!

[@nohandleforme....]

I visited Korea and Japan when I was younger and I learned how to use them back then, but it has been so long, I felt I needed a refresher. Thank you for your help.

[@shdbwjdbebdben2390]

Thank you! Finally had enough when I went out for dim sum and had to flag down a waitress halfway through the meal to ask for a fork. AFTER all my friends at the table failed to teach me how to use them. My Chinese friend started with "I can teach you, I've taught sooo many people" and ended with "Maybe you should just get a fork." 🤦🏻‍♀️ Your explanation was so detailed. Thank you.

It is difficult to learn everything in this world, but if you keep teaching like this ✓, maybe something will become easier 🙆

[@JonathanFox-uj1rv]

Thank you. Very helpful. Bought some today, now I will learn. Will simplify my utensils drawer greatly.

[@Svenja_Schaefer]

Ops... I used to move the upper chopstick only with my index finger and only stablized it with my middle finger, instead of moving it with both fingers and stablize it with the ring finger. Now I have to relearn it. My hand muscles often cramp because of my bad health condition and that hurts while using chop sticks. But I like it to much. For me it's kind of more logical and more harmoniously than using a fork, although I'm german.
Thank you for your tutorial! Kamsahabnida! 😊

I’m Irish and without any learning, the first time I used them was actually pretty accurate. Now I’m used to eating with chopsticks and can eat with both chopsticks and fork, spoon and knife. It’s not that hard. Well dry rice is a challenge, but like you said rice is usually sticky when cooked. Love your video’s!❤

[@strange_jason]

I don't pnch the top stick with my middle and index finger. I just let it pivet at a point between my thumb and index and use my index to pinch the two sticks together. Just feel comfortable that way and I have loads of control over the grip I have - maybe that's just because I haven't used the traditional grip.
