You're right Martina, sesame oil should totally be included in the taste pyramid, nothing else is like it. Just one drop and it completely transforms the dish.
it indeed makes it instantly bitter and less appetizing for me %-) . sesame in all it's forms is an spikey kind of bitter, i must be genetically burdened as not many people know what i mean with it. i generally taste more bitters then others. (i'm also on the side of tasting soap in coriander) despite my tasting, i love tasting new things and combinations. i have tasted a whole range of things with sesame in it, they were all bitter in a disappointing way and i still haven't managed to appreciate it, like i have for coffee, brocolli, brussel sprouts, beer, and many many vegetables,...
I can say with confidence, that things the content we have all been salivating for. 😋 I will probably watch this every morning this week while I prepare my own breakfast. DITL videos are the BEST!
This has been refreshing and its wholesome. After what feels like a long week of getting pelted and not feeling like I’m doing anything right. I just feel super happy to seeing you do some awesome breakfast food. Will be trying some next week. As my week is gonna began by stressful conflict at work. Wish me luck.
Hi Martina, I've been watching your videos since 2009 when you taught me a ton about Korea so I was confident when I travelled there myself in the past. I'm also a pretty frequent traveller to Japan so I enjoyed your videos about both. Because of covid I couldn't travel anymore so I really miss Japan a lot i was able to spend a lot of time there in the past and watching your videos makes me miss it even more LOL, You're really good at showing the small charms of Japan which is what I like about it as well. I hope your health is doing okay. Love the videos and can't wait for more :)
I love the way you instantly create a fun, comfortable and judgement free space when you're cooking, exploring, or sharing things you've seen or found. Your videos have given me so much confidence over the years, and most recently, through the chill atmosphere you create with King Kogi, I've been putting your videos on my phone in the kitchen and using them to motivate myself to clean up, or prepare simple meals - something that has always been a struggle for me. thank you!
I've seen so many people make this spinach side dish and every single one of them they put ice cubes in the chill out water and use some sort of fancy cheese cloth to squeeze out the water from the cooked spinach. Who has time for that??? Thank you Martina for keeping it super easy for us
Martina, I share your love and passion for the store that starts with “D” and ends with “aiso”! Those kitchen gadgets are amazingly useful (and so cute)! If I ever get to visit Japan, I’ll need all three of those (rice drain guard, sugar de-clumper, and onion drain container). This video was a dose of relatability when it comes to “English-ing” in the morning (I just can’t do it). And I jive with your humour so much! Arnold’s “just chill” and your description of the umeboshi really got me hahaha. Thanks for the awesome video; the food is drool-worthy!
I actually went to my local asian grocers and saw that they had a variety of miso pastes! Never noticed it before, so I grabbed a similar coloured one to yours and can't wait to make miso soup and try that spinach and miso sauce! Loved the video
You probably don't read comments anymore, but I've watched EYK for years and years, and had a long break to come back and find this new journey. I love it for you. Also, 2 weeks ago I started learning Japanese, so when you put the words on screen and I can recognize at least some of the Hiragana, I get so excited. Thank you!
Of course I still read comments you silly duck 😊 The whole point of making videos is for the community, so thanks for taking the time to leave a comment! I enjoy reading them. I’m so happy you’ve found me again! I’m off on a new life journey (well, it’s been a few years now so it’s a different kind of journey) but I’m doing well. Hope you’ll subscribe and “hit that bell” haha as the UA-camrs say now and days 💕
I really love how you explain flavours, textures and the overall experience of eating the different dishes and ingredients. You do it in a super kind and non-condescending way. I know all these dishes and always took it for granted- but you don’t and by that you’re making it accessible to a lot of viewers who might not know it and/or are maybe worried about trying it.
@@KingKogi I’m genuinely surprised for a reply! Appreciate it a lot tho! I’ve been a fan of yours for close to 10 years! I wish you nothing but the best and hopefully more cooking videos 😁😁😁
I’m so happy to have you in my internet life, Martina. I have thought of you as a loving older sister and I’ve said this before but idk how you always post when I’m on the brink of a breakdown, brightening my mood like the sun coming out on a stormy day ⛅️ ☀️ 🌺🌷💐
How cool is that! I wonder if it's available in the US.... Hmmm.... I'll have to look. Even though I don't need another tamagoyaki pan, Martina's looks amazing.
You’re loved Martina. Keep being you and we’ll support you. You’re such a strong woman with such a quirky personality that’s captivating when you help us live vicariously through you. Keep up the hard work girlie!
Breakfast: Maximum Efffort Edition! Everything looks delicious and I loved the longer video. How about a video showing more cool kitchen items? What am I missing out on?! I NEED to know!
Im so excited to watch a long King Kogi vid! I’m so proud of Martina, she really has created such a wholesome and wonderful relationship with her community!
I just made some toast and eggs for breakfast. :3 Now I get to enjoy my orange juice and let my food start digesting while enjoying a long video, thank you Martina!
I'm in America and I've never seen spinach with the root attached, even in our Asian markets. Seems very handy. I have a garden, so I might try growing some spinach this fall just for this purpose.
As a huge sesame fan (my favorite ice cream is black sesame ice cream) I fully support adding it to the list of tastes. It has that nutty aspect but there's a roasty element too, almost like coffee.
That moment when Martins posts a new video but I have to hold off to watch it when I’m fully ready to enjoy and savor the video after waiting FULLY knowing I’m going to end up watching it now and then rewatching it on loop until there’s a new upload love your channel and your videos !! ❤️
Everyone is different, so these aren't easy for you in the morning, no problem. Maybe you're a toast or cereal person, which is more the normal "easy". I find these recipes easy, but then again, I've also been making these food types for years, so it might be easier for me than others. Hope you give one of these recipes a chance and maybe it'll get easier!
I’ve been struggling with my depression a lot more so recently and your videos truly help ground me and bring me back to a better headspace. Please never stop making videos, they are truly are my safe space.❤️
I just realized I have a deep need for a sticker (or some kind of merch) of King Kogi building a ladder @0:28. That image is so cute and motivational, I’d buy like 10 stickers to put up all around the house! Please make that happen someday Martina!!!
i wanna thank you martina! That sesame miso dressing you used on your spinach was the damn dressing i've been looking for!! there's a kbbq place down my street that made the only broccoli i'll ever eat but could never figure out what the sauce they used on it was. now i don't have to go to an expensive dinner just for when i'm fixing for good broccoli :D
Hi Wizard of Quesadilla~ thanks for taking the time to leave such a nice comment! Welcome to the community, and to the King Kogi Airship. Hope to see you around the comment section again ✨
I love seeing you cooking, for all the reasons people have said before, but especially because of all the amazing little gadgets and things I didn't know existed. That sugar spoon is amazing. Also the idea of doing something to get you through the rough parts of waking up is something I love, because I have a lot of morning brain fog to get through and I like to do soothing things to gently coax that away.
I come back to this video every now and then cuz I like having you around cooking your breakfast in the background 😂🥰 you remind me so much of one of my best friends who lives far from me so it feels wholesome on levels 🥰
"If you dont make time for your body to rest, your body will set that time for you." And boy that happened to me today, but it was actually a lucky break, i finally had some time to watch all your videos i missed and I love them!! This is the fantastic fun chill video i have been missing in my life
Was having a really bad pain day or well days lately and so seeing you pop on my feed made me so happy I was able to enjoy you and drool over your food for a bit instead of stressing and the other.
I just got up and waking up is rough on my body. This video is perfect to watch while I wait for my body to get with the program. I love Martina's cooking videos.
I saw this video from Vox about how most north americans eat dessert for breakfast and the narrator decided he wanted to have healthy breakfast and I remember he used one or two japanese breakfast sides and they looked so tasty I wanted to try myself. Your video came right on time as just today I ventured with miso paste and miso ramen for breakfast. Thank you!!
That is the cutest lil tofu block! I have a friend who didn’t realize miso was a paste, not the soup, was warmed it up & drank from the container. Oops. Took her too long to be able to be near it. Your tamagoyaki looks good to me. Those pans are also amazing for grilled cheese sandwiches if you have wider bread. I had to buy a new pan once children found out as they had too hot.
Everyvideo of martina that I click on, i just press like before watching it 1) i tend to fortget to do so 2) she deserves our support just cuz she us such an amazong person!
I'm so glad you're doing more cooking videos! I really love your videos, they are such a joy to watch. I've been viewing for such a long time, and I love the relaxed yet upbeat vibe at King Kogi that really shows the magic and joy in daily life. I've really taken your philosophy of looking for daily adventures and treating what's around you as magic and special to heart. Thanks for continuing to make videos and sharing your light with all of us
I love everything about this video - watching you happily chat away is the best thing ever. It's like being at a friends house. Thank you! I learned a lot!
18:16 i store pre chopped green onion with open so it does get soggy even though it dries out after a week. Then it becomes the dry form but can still be used in soup.
Please do more cooking videos, love your munchies series !!! Your videos has inspired me to cook more korean and japanese dishes and love how you teach us your recipes :)
I find the video so unexpectedly relaxing & comforting, even more so than those asmr silent cooking. Martina, thanks for all the effort you’ve put in to creating & sharing your little haven with us 💕
love that i stumbled upon you and this video! i feel like we're actually hanging out in your kitchen together :) and i cannot wait to try these recipes oh lordy.
Ya know, there's no rules about Japanese cooking but you did wonderful in your kitchen! Im so glad you love NATTO beans because ppl who are closed-minded and dislike it. Natto is my breakfast meal, I dont eat rice anymore, I scrabbled 3 eggs with green onion and put on top of my spring green salad with no dressing and then natto on top the eggs. I ate it everyday to keep my weight off but natto is superfood to prevent cancer and gives your skin slow aging. Your dish looks yummy!
I agree with those plp who say they been having a hard time and your videos make out day.....God bless u martina u have no idea how much i needed this, i really enjoy watching your content anything you do your funny and just love your personality.
Oh wow Martina this meal looks amazing. When I was a child and dad was in the Australian Army, we got posted to Malaya (that’s what it was called in the 1960’s). I spent most of my days with our housekeeper who was Chinese and she cooked her meals in her living space. I would eat my meals with her because they appealed more to me. Since then I have tried and loved many Asian cuisines and Japanese and Chinese are my all time favourites. I love all the salty, savoury flavours the most and often eat Japanese for breakfast. Although I’ll eat it anytime lol. Since Covid, ingredients are hard to order online now and that’s the only way for me to get them as we live in a small country village 567 people lol. I cannot wait for it all to come back online cause I’m feeling like my tastebuds are screaming out for goodness lol. I’m thrilled to see you living life in Japan again Martina. Michelle
Hi, Martina! There’s no vinegar in umeboshi. They are naturally sour. It’s a long process to pickle them, but it’s usually only the plums and salt. Sometimes honey, shiso or katsuo flakes.
Had an almost identical breakfast this morning. I did two tamagoyaki, one was beautiful the other not so much. It was fun to watch this while eating my breakfast.☺️
Yes!!! Isn’t it amazing? Honestly it isn’t a super common kitchen item in Japan or anything, I sent a few of them to my Japanese friends and they were like WHAAAAAAAT!? 😂
@@KingKogi I fully expected to see them lying around in Daiso but nope 🤷 Sometimes that store is a bigger motivation to get back to Japan than all the rest. 🙈
@@KingKogi May I ask where you found yours ? My brother will be going back to Japan soon, and he never saw those too, so I asked him to investigate and send me one if he found some 😂
Always love watching your videos. These are some of my favorite Japanese sides too (that and the sesame cucumbers!). Seeing you build a ladder gives me strength and courage to keep fighting against cancer. Thank you for being an inspiration.
GURL You Embrace the Morning More than I do. Making Coffee is my Supreme Effort after a couple of cups and an hour or more, I can finally get up and start my day. Usually in front of the screen watching Youtey. Bigg Huggs !! Doing is a Rung On The Ladder, it doesn't matter what, Just DO. There One Rung Up. !!
You inspire me so much💕! I have a very hard time with breakfast, but hope that when I'm done with my re-decorating my apartment, it will be more fun to cook and do stuff at home instead of just living.
Love your cooking content! I love seeing all the ingenious Japanese cooking gadgets! Great Japanese recipes, I love it! You are a ray of sunshine! Thanks for sharing!
I don't always make Japanese style breakfasts, but my friend's family always told me to make extra rice when I do so I would be 'inspired' to make Japanese style fried rice the next night. They also introduced me to the little instant fried rice packets that you add to rice and fry. I love Japanese food so much lol
OMG, this is a fantastic beginners video on how to use/cook key Japanese ingredients. Just FFFF-ING bloody fantastic. Great job 👍 Martina, informative, fun, funny, n looks delicious!! Love u much my dear.....many MUCH. Hahahaha 🤣🤣😂🤣
Welcome to King Kogi, Martina here~ 👩🏻🦳✨ so happy you stumbled upon this video, and thanks for the lovely comment. I hope to see you around in the comment section again.
This whole video gives me joy. I love your style, your cooking, your editing, your personality. I feel so happy and inspired watching. I will have to get that rice catcher contraption!!
You have finally convinced me to give cooking with miso a try. Never had it that I know of except in soup at a restaurant. Giiiirrrllll! I have been missing out! That spinach dish, omg! I'm decided to put it on black rice and it paired sooo well with it!
WOOHOO! It's also great on veg that you grill. Like eggplant and mushrooms. And, if you can believe me, a bit of miso in brownies or other chocolate or caramel desserts is EPIC
You're right Martina, sesame oil should totally be included in the taste pyramid, nothing else is like it. Just one drop and it completely transforms the dish.
I cant live without it. Its a staple in my asian cooking like garlic.
it indeed makes it instantly bitter and less appetizing for me %-) . sesame in all it's forms is an spikey kind of bitter, i must be genetically burdened as not many people know what i mean with it. i generally taste more bitters then others. (i'm also on the side of tasting soap in coriander) despite my tasting, i love tasting new things and combinations. i have tasted a whole range of things with sesame in it, they were all bitter in a disappointing way and i still haven't managed to appreciate it, like i have for coffee, brocolli, brussel sprouts, beer, and many many vegetables,...
Omg I see you on drag race videos and other stuff too lol - nice to see you here
Bruh, I'm obsessed with it.
I'm an absolute whore for sesame oil. It can rescue so many dishes.
Tuck in for a long video 👩🏻🦳💕 and I hope this encourages you to try some Japanese cooking
I can say with confidence, that things the content we have all been salivating for. 😋 I will probably watch this every morning this week while I prepare my own breakfast. DITL videos are the BEST!
I've been relying on the conbini microwave food packs for a while, this makes me want to start cooking again esp with the fresh spring veggies!!
This has been refreshing and its wholesome. After what feels like a long week of getting pelted and not feeling like I’m doing anything right. I just feel super happy to seeing you do some awesome breakfast food. Will be trying some next week. As my week is gonna began by stressful conflict at work. Wish me luck.
Loved it!
I love seeing people in their element and it feels like yours is cooking 🍳❤️☺️

I am fascinated by the kitchen gadgets designed specifically for Japanese cooking and storing of food items.
Same! I come for the Daiso gear. 😆
I've seen so many people make this spinach side dish and every single one of them they put ice cubes in the chill out water and use some sort of fancy cheese cloth to squeeze out the water from the cooked spinach. Who has time for that??? Thank you Martina for keeping it super easy for us
I just dump mine in a strainer and rinse it under cold water until it's completely cold, then squeeze it with my hands. Ain't got no time for fancy 😂

Thank you for reminding this old rusty brain 😂 I felt like I didn’t recall seeing roots
It still works with unrooted leaves too, it just means they’ll be more floaty and you may have to squeeze more water out of then
I'm in America and I've never seen spinach with the root attached, even in our Asian markets. Seems very handy. I have a garden, so I might try growing some spinach this fall just for this purpose.
As a huge sesame fan (my favorite ice cream is black sesame ice cream) I fully support adding it to the list of tastes. It has that nutty aspect but there's a roasty element too, almost like coffee.
Yes 👏🏼 black sesame seed dessert of any kind is super delicious! Black sesame seed pudding is so good too
Yes! Black sesame ice cream is King 👑 It's criminally difficult to find in my area, I haven't had it for years. 😭

Oh wow Martina this meal looks amazing. When I was a child and dad was in the Australian Army, we got posted to Malaya (that’s what it was called in the 1960’s). I spent most of my days with our housekeeper who was Chinese and she cooked her meals in her living space. I would eat my meals with her because they appealed more to me. Since then I have tried and loved many Asian cuisines and Japanese and Chinese are my all time favourites. I love all the salty, savoury flavours the most and often eat Japanese for breakfast. Although I’ll eat it anytime lol. Since Covid, ingredients are hard to order online now and that’s the only way for me to get them as we live in a small country village 567 people lol. I cannot wait for it all to come back online cause I’m feeling like my tastebuds are screaming out for goodness lol. I’m thrilled to see you living life in Japan again Martina. Michelle
Sesame seed ASMR. Something I didn't know I needed. Thank you Martina. 😂❤️
Omg that's so smart to measure out the water with the bowls you're going to use! I always measure out either too much or not enough
Right? I always do too much or too little and finally I was like FERK IT. I did the same with the Royal Milk tea recipe too
Yes! My mind is blown! 🤯
I've been sick with covid for the last five days and this really put a smile on my face. 😊
Thanks!
Hi, Martina!
There’s no vinegar in umeboshi. They are naturally sour.
It’s a long process to pickle them, but it’s usually only the plums and salt. Sometimes honey, shiso or katsuo flakes.
Had an almost identical breakfast this morning. I did two tamagoyaki, one was beautiful the other not so much. It was fun to watch this while eating my breakfast.☺️
I have been watching Martina for years and been waiting for a Japanese breakfast video for years!
This video is so comforting, I love being in the kitchen with you Martina! 💗✨
I had a wee bit of a breakdown yesterday, but seeing your video pop up this morning has inspired me to work on building my ladder today!!!!!
So happy to see martina happyyy
I have the rice rinser, funnily enough my Japanese roommates didn't know them, but it's sooo easy!
Yes!!! Isn’t it amazing? Honestly it isn’t a super common kitchen item in Japan or anything, I sent a few of them to my Japanese friends and they were like WHAAAAAAAT!? 😂
@@KingKogi I fully expected to see them lying around in Daiso but nope 🤷 Sometimes that store is a bigger motivation to get back to Japan than all the rest. 🙈
@@KingKogi May I ask where you found yours ? My brother will be going back to Japan soon, and he never saw those too, so I asked him to investigate and send me one if he found some 😂
Omg I need that rice wash blocker! I always lose some rice when I rinse it out ool
I got Covid again this week and your videos have brought me back to life. Thank you Martina.
Thanks for going through the effort to show us how you make breakfast!
ほうれん草のゴマ味噌あえ久しぶりに作って食べましたよ!美味しかったですよ。ありがとうございます!
Your kitchen looks so cozy! I love the blue cooking equipment 😍 so cute
Not me watching this as I eat breakfast and reveling in how soothing the video is. Love love love that it's over half an hour long.
Always love watching your videos. These are some of my favorite Japanese sides too (that and the sesame cucumbers!). Seeing you build a ladder gives me strength and courage to keep fighting against cancer. Thank you for being an inspiration.
ahh i miss japanese breakfasts, thanks for sharing and i will reminisce about japan and hope i can return soon!
This was such an enjoyable video to watch Martina. It was literally like spending time with a close friend.
Thanks! Love these recipes and tips!
GURL You Embrace the Morning More than I do. Making Coffee is my Supreme Effort after a couple of cups and an hour or more, I can finally get up and start my day. Usually in front of the screen watching Youtey. Bigg Huggs !! Doing is a Rung On The Ladder, it doesn't matter what, Just DO. There One Rung Up. !!
i didn't realize it was 36 mins until the end and I loved it. thank you!!!!
GASP!!! 😱😱😱😱
It is sorcery! 🧙🏼♂
I need a filter drain for my rice bowl too!
You inspire me so much💕!
I have a very hard time with breakfast, but hope that when I'm done with my re-decorating my apartment, it will be more fun to cook and do stuff at home instead of just living.
Watching you enjoy cooking makes me happy! I’m a terrible cook and do not enjoy it so seeing you have fun is awesome. 🍳
Love your cooking content! I love seeing all the ingenious Japanese cooking gadgets! Great Japanese recipes, I love it! You are a ray of sunshine! Thanks for sharing!
I swear just seeing you in a new thumbnail is like a shot of dopamine always makes puts a smile on my face
Love these longer videos! :) and I especially love seeing you cook. It's always great to see what a typical meal is like for folks around the wold.
I loved that videoooo
It was so nice and cosy but very smooth and interesting
Just great !
Such a delightful video! Seriously, I've been super stressed with life lately and this was a nice break! Thank you for the break from chaos!
Love what you are doing Martina!! As a dude who can't cook, these top tips are mega helpful :3
Keep on doing your thang and stay safe
I just want you to know that anytime I'm in the need for some comfort videos, I watch your cooking videos. You make me feel so welcome and happy 🫰🏼💜
I don't always make Japanese style breakfasts, but my friend's family always told me to make extra rice when I do so I would be 'inspired' to make Japanese style fried rice the next night. They also introduced me to the little instant fried rice packets that you add to rice and fry. I love Japanese food so much lol
As a person who hates cooking, I admire how much effort you put into your meals.
OMG, this is a fantastic beginners video on how to use/cook key Japanese ingredients. Just FFFF-ING bloody fantastic. Great job 👍 Martina, informative, fun, funny, n looks delicious!! Love u much my dear.....many MUCH. Hahahaha 🤣🤣😂🤣
I loved everything about this video. Never seen you before, you seem lovely and i really enjoyed listening and watching ☺️
Welcome to King Kogi, Martina here~ 👩🏻🦳✨ so happy you stumbled upon this video, and thanks for the lovely comment. I hope to see you around in the comment section again.
Love seeing you and your wonderful, cheery self in a kitchen! Rock on, Martina.
This whole video gives me joy. I love your style, your cooking, your editing, your personality. I feel so happy and inspired watching. I will have to get that rice catcher contraption!!
Thankyou for staying true to yourself and being amazing Martina! I always love your cooking videos and they genuinely make my day!
You have finally convinced me to give cooking with miso a try. Never had it that I know of except in soup at a restaurant. Giiiirrrllll! I have been missing out! That spinach dish, omg! I'm decided to put it on black rice and it paired sooo well with it!
WOOHOO! It's also great on veg that you grill. Like eggplant and mushrooms. And, if you can believe me, a bit of miso in brownies or other chocolate or caramel desserts is EPIC
