Japanese knife skills - Katsuramuki - 大根の桂むきのコツ

[@lonelysamoans]

I was born in Japan moved to New York in 1980. My favorite dish is pork ginger. I am 62 years old and miss Japanese food so much. I tried every dish on this channel and by far the best Japanese home cooking videos! Thank you Chef Dai!

[@glam000]

As not a Japanese nor a chef myself, of those global knife skills clips I watched over KZbin, I always come down to reckoning the Japanese knife skills are, though pretty hard (if not the hardest) to pick up, the outcome is just one standing at the top of the tree.

[@jackli8483]

Hello Dai, my name is Jack from Taiwan. My favorite dish has to be the braise beef noodle soup that will keep you coming back for more! Been enjoying your recipes as well as the chef tips, keep up the good work!

[@tmt7373]

Hey Dai, i'm so glad you're back with videos again! I'm from germany and my favorite dish is Schnitzel :)

[@durugudesuyo5936]

Hi Chef Dai! I'm from the Philippines but I am currently in USA. Favorite dish from the Philippines is Adobo (similar to Kakuni), from USA is Steaks, and from Japan is everything from Natto to Ramen to Sushi to Wagyu! Thanks for the giveaway and it is always nice to see and hear from you!

[@bigwoo]

Hi Chef, Longtime fan of the channel. Glad to see you safe and healthy and uploading again. I'm from the US. My favorite dish is St. Louis style pork spareribs.

[@Breadsticksandbrandy]

Hey Dai I’m from LA, California and I love how many ramen places we have here! They’re a bit expensive since it’s America, but I still love ordering a bowl of ramen from them. Love all your content and I’m super glad you’re back! hope to see a ramen episode soon ;)

[@julialincoln-stefan1066]

Hi Chef Dai. Placing my comment here on the right video now :) I’m from Austria and my favourite homegrown dish is the one and only Schnitzel with Viennese potato salad. Glad to see you’re so active with the channel again. Keep it up and all the best!

[@jenniferwaldren7111]

I am Filipino, born in the US. My favorite Filipino dish is miswa soup. I'm really enjoying your videos. Thank you!

[@zizia9060]

Hello. I'm from Somalia. My favourite food from there is Galamudo. It's like home made noodles cooked in a meat stew. The noodles are finger length and slightly fatter than pasta. And made out of flour, bit of oil and hot water or broth for rich flavour. I've tried loads of Galamudo, restaurants, friends, relatives etc but my mom makes the best😋!!

[@jacksonaguilar1998]

Awesome video, Chef! I can't wait to give it a go at work. Do I need to dry the daikon sheets like you did with the cucumber, before cutting them? Thanks

[@arkonite]

Definitely skills i would love to master, think this will be on my list to practice. Excellent video Dai, arigato gozaimashita 😊

[@CookingwithChefDai]

Thanks so much Susan. And perfect Japanese btw 🕺

[@arkonite]

Cooking with Chef Dai i only know a few words 😂😂

[@paulolned7014]

Hi chef dai. I'm from the Philippines 🇵🇭 and my favorite dish in my country is pork sinigang, a sour soup with vegetables and the famous adobo. stewed chicken or pork in garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, and bay leaves. I was a food fan ever since i was a kid i first fell in love with asian food. not because im asian, but the diversity and the ways on how asians cook their food. My favorite food beside filipino food are japanese and chinese food. I was 8 years old when i first cooked my first fried rice.. after watching this anime called shin chuuka ichiban lol i can still remember the first food battle he had was mafo tofu. And now because of shokugeki no soma I'm so obsessed with asian cooking and also the knives! I really hope to win that beautiful knife and enhance my cooking skills. Lots of love from the Philippines and more power chef dai!

[@frairie1003]

Thank you for doing this giveaway, Chef! I am from the Philippines and my favorite dish is called "Kare-Kare". It's a stew made with thick and savory peanut sauce and is often eaten with shrimp paste.

[@omgitsalion999]

Hi Chef Dai! Long time fan and really glad you're back :) I'm from the US and my favorite dish from here would probably be a Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich.

[@MrMojooRisin]

I'm from Hungary, and my fav hungarian dish is lángos. It's a flat bread, fried in oil. I usually eat with sour cream and cheese. And thanks for the opportunity!

[@Schandmowl]

I'm from Switzerland and my fave Swiss dish is the Rösti.

[@janamartens1205]

Hello Chef Dai, it's a generous gift you make with that professional knife made in Japan. I don't have such impressive knife skill but would be happy to learn. My name is Jana and I am from Germany and I love Japanese food, that's how I came across to your channel. My favourite dish is Sushi 🍣❣ My tip; you can get great Japanese food in Dusseldorf at the Immermannstraße. I hope one day I can visit your restaurant in London since my sister lives and works there.

[@leanne4847]

Another fantastic video. Please could you do a video about your favourite knives and how you sharpen your knives?

[@myeongseongaidanyoo4731]

Hi there! Best wishes from London, UK! My favorite meal here in England is the classic roast dinner, and a greengage crumble pie for desert! Thanks for all your videos!

[@andrewg1083]

I'm from the USA and my favorite dish is Argentine Empanadas. Thanks for your lessons!

[@etnchn]

Taiwanese-American, and I love making xiao long bao! Thanks for the great videos!

[@bruce1772]

Hi Dai I have been learning so much from your videos Thank you. In answer to your question on your other knife video I am from England and my favourite food is a beautifully cooked steak.

[@yul6364]

Hello Chef Dai. Thank you for sharing your recipes and this giveaway opportunity. I am from Australia. My favorite dish is ginger-soy steamed fish.

[@kentxavier9961]

Hi Chef Dai! This is my entry for the giveaway. Im from Indonesia and my absolute favourite dish from here is "nasi goreng" which translates to fried rice/yakimeshi. I like it because it's a unique fried rice that uses sweet soy sauce (kecap manis) rather than regular soy sauce which most fried rices do. It just proves that this dish is just like a blank canvas. There are so much room for adjustment and experiment so it will never get boring because we can always try different flavour combination. Anyways, love your uploads and im so happy you're uploading again!! 😊

[@luciocaramori]

Great video. I was looking for a video like this to learn and use katsuramuki to cut corn for using in a tempura. Wish me luck.

[@UnclePutte]

Beautiful bit of technique. I should give it a try, maybe it'll motivate me to actually eat my greens more.

[@CookingwithChefDai]

😂 thanks a lot. Always eat your greens mate!

[@Moonfleet41]

My Goodness Chef, you are a Culinary Samurai, I would need to be sponsored by Band Aid to event attempt that.!

[@CookingwithChefDai]

Thanks brother, I’m not sure about that. I’ve seen your “delicate” fingers work magic in the garage, I’m convinced those attributes would translate well in the kitchen too. We’re opening Bentoya from next Monday, so you’re more than welcome to pop down whenever you’re in the area!!!! Much love to you and Pen x

[@Moonfleet41]

@@CookingwithChefDai Great news Dai and an offer we can't refuse! Hope you're first few days go really well, keep safe and catch up soon, D&Px

[@jerrickt3136]

Great showcase! Do you have any tips to mastering the fast chopping motion? I can't seem smoothly pull my fingers back to get a continuous chopping motion for the entire length of the vegetable like the way you could

[@CookingwithChefDai]

Thanks very much. I’ll have to make a separate video on that in the future. To be honest, it’s just about the practise. I’ve cut my left middle finger countless times when I first started this job.

[@jerrickt3136]

@@CookingwithChefDai Thank you! One of the troubles I have is the technique to getting the ingredient to sort of stay on the board while shifting my fingers, it's actually getting better with practice. For example, when I'm slicing an onion on a wooden chopping board, the onion sort of slides off

[@CookingwithChefDai]

Jerrick T you’re welcome Jerrick. It almost sounds like your knife is not sharp enough and you’re pushing the vegetable rather than slicing through it. Really hard to know without seeing it with my own eyes.....

[@jerrickt3136]

@@CookingwithChefDai Hm, I see, maybe one of these days I'll try to take a video of me using the knife and you can see haha ◡̈

[@masteryoda7875]

Hi! I'm from the Philippines and my favorite filipino dish is Beef Kare-kare. It's a type of stew with a rich and thick peanut sauce. :)

[@Davearmstrong42]

Maybe I'm odd, but I could do this all day long. There is something about perfecting a single action that is so cathartic. Thanks for the great vid!!! Do you think a one sided bevel knife like usuba is better for this?

[@thomcat850]

I saw your latest video on the Japanese knife. I'm from the United States. Phoenix, Arizona to be exact. My most favorite dish from the US is Macaroni and Cheese. Love your channel!

[@Julian5218h]

I'm from Norway, and my favorite Norwegian food is lightly salted Cod cutlet with a Norwegian buttersauce called sandefjordsmør(translating to butter from Sandefjord) which is a heavy cream reduction with a lot of butter and parsley with lemon, salt and pepper, and some nicely cooked potatoes ♡ My second favourite is the one i eat the most which is called betasuppe, (soup from pieces i think would be the best translation) thats a soup made with salted meats i use lamb because that's what grandma did, and the rest is rootveg, varying from house to house but me and my fiancé use potatoes, swede, carrots, seleryroot, also with onions and leeks

[@chuhuilim2122]

Hi Chef Dai! I’m from Singapore and my fav dish is “char kway teow”, which is flat rice noodles wok fried with veggies, chinese sausage, cockles and drenched in sweet sauce 😋 a good one will even come with the wok charred taste!

[@ZapDash]

I'm from the U.S. and one of my favorite dishes is a Pastrami Burger. Lots of great foods in the U.S. thanks to all the cultures that have come together! But determining food that is distinctly American can be tricky sometimes . . .

[@fastmouce]

Hey I’m from Denver Colorado United States. America isn’t known for its cuisine internationally besides hot dogs and hamburgers haha but I love the twists America makes to Japanese sushi in America. American sushi is very different from traditional nigiri in Japan. So American sushi is my favorite. I love the use of mayo in the rolls as well!

[@jy2571-l6q]

Wow that's amazing. I am from Taiwan but I currently live in Canada. My favourite dish has to be 素麵線, a vegetarian noodle dish with really thick broth. This dish was introduced to me when I was old enough to walk to the morning markets in Taiwan with my grandma. Since she was vegetarian, this dish was the only breakfast option for us. I can't wait to go back to Taiwan after covid is over.

[@shinsukyun]

Hello chef, great to have you back. Im from Korea and my favourite dish is ‘jeyook bokeum’

[@MissLOL11011]

Hi Chef! I’m Chinese American, I would have to say my favorite dish is a simple pork broth with pork and meatballs. It’s something my mom used to make for me all the time, so it’s a comfort meal for me. And also, I enjoy how versatile it is, since I can have it with rice, noodles, etc.

[@tumainitiger4655]

I'm from England and my favorite English dish from here is a full roast beef dinner with mustard 😊

Hi from USA. Thanks for these videos. My favorite dish from US is the california roll (although I read this may be Canadian, sorry...)

[@valarmathei95]

Hi, I love your simple yet delicious recipes.. I am from Malaysia, here we have 3 prominent cooking styles and I have favorite dishes from all three (Malay, Chinese and Indian) styles. But all these styles are kinda mashed and integrated in Nyonya/ Peranakan cuisine, thus my favorite dish is Curry Mee (Mee Kari) which has yellow noodles served with thick and creamy meat curry and prawns, long beans, tofu and fresh bean sprouts as it's topping. It almost always comes with spicy chilli paste to add spicyness to our liking. I was mouthwatering even when describing this dish🤤😋😂. I guess I'll get it from the nearest hawker stall for lunch today! Keep on inspiring and introducing us with great recipes..❤️💕

[@hyungsublee6694]

Hi, Im from Spain and one of my favorite dishes is "Tortilla de Patatas" or also known in eneglish as "Spanish Omelette".

[@zadinal]

Nice, I've always admired this technique but didn't know what chefs used it for.

[@TheDanmanguy]

I’m from Canada and my favourite national dish of course is poutine. Not just the traditional poutine of cheese curds and gravy but because we are an international country, I have seen so many amazing multicultural versions pop up. Butter chicken poutine, bbq pulled pork poutine, seafood chowder poutine. The options are endless and I believe it really shows off Canada’s international roots.

[@samil4143]

Hi Chef Dai! I'm from the US and my favorite American food is caesar salad - made fresh with anchovies, garlic, coddled egg, lemon juice, and parmesan in the dressing :). The NYT has an excellent recipe but Smitten Kitchen's crouton technique makes the best I've ever had.
