"This is why I gave you this recipe. Each person makes the same dish differently." Maybe I'm a sentimental fool, but this made me feel all warm and fuzzy.

[@toad7395]

[@aliceshin4426]

I really appreciate how respectful and gracious Andrew is, especially being the White guy trying to recreate a Japanese chef's dish. It's never like, "Watch me conquer/master this dish while obnoxiously acting like I'm the expert." He really does his best to give the chef a voice and platform and actively tries not to take things out of context for a cheap bit or to "translate" too hard for his audience. It makes me respect him all the more.

[@ChicoCabra]

While I would agree that Andrew is lovely and respectful, I wouldn't say the dish is particularly Japanese, even though the chef is. The dish is very French.

[@bongaz3547]

I still remember that episode from worth it! really cool that the chef made an appearance

[@dinahjbayan2526]

I would definitely buy Chef Motokichi's pan even tho I barely cook

[@moondream6]

Chef Motokichi's words really struck me seriously, because I feel this same way about food. My aunt had this amazing ability to cook. She could cook dishes with no recipe, just out of her head and everyone loved them. They'd ask her for the recipe, and she'd give it. They'd make it and it wasn't even REMOTELY like what she made. For years I've heard that "she wouldn't even give us the ingredients that went in it, it was totally different!" But when I asked her for a recipe and she gave it, I managed to turn out an identical copy of what she had made... so I think it is part the ingredients that go in it, and part the amount of how much we resonate with that recipe. Our dedication to following it and making it taste delicious, and also aligning to what is delicious to each person. combined with experience, of course. A newbie chef can't expect to turn out the ox tongue stew the Chef made right out of the gate... but someone who has been cooking for ten, fifteen, twenty years has a much better chance of turning out something very similar to it. Even having the recipe itself, it's not a guarantee that you'll turn out the same product. Just about every chef has made something from a recipe and something absolutely different (sometimes horrendous, other times actually surprisingly good) turns out of that weird result. But only by making the same dish over and over and trying new things each time that weren't done before can we finally accomplish a proper result to what the masters have labored to create. No carpenter starts with building an entire house, right?
