Japanese Spicy Citrus Condiment, not Wasabi? | Yuzu Kosho Story ★ ONLY in JAPAN

[@linkcullum9961]

I dunno why but this channel should have 5 million subscribers by now. It's child friendly. It has great and truthful content. The editing is television standard. The host is literally living it. No fake passions.

[@BLY99]

He just restarted, his previous channel had almost 1.5 mln subs.

[@SuperKendoman]

@@BLY99 May I ask why he restarted? He is such a passionate KZbinr and the videos are very good too. It's on par with a lot of documentaries from TV, like NHK or the BBC.

[@BLY99]

@@SuperKendoman Apparently the channel was owned by somebody else even though John built it up. And there seemed to have been a dispute about it, so John left. And the other guy tries to carry it on with different hosts and it's not going well.

[@linkcullum9961]

I know. I was a subscriber. I really enjoy his work.

That Google earth - drone transition was money! Great vid, love yuzu - made sorbet with my yuzu this year.

[@GBduds]

Google Earth engine is noice

[@onlyinjapan]

Thanks Jaya! See you soon ^_^

[@ReedSteiner]

Great idea I would love the recipe

[@giovanniamadorrosales9270]

I love your only in Japan episodes so much. Please keep making more. I don't mind the on-the-go ones but I just love these ones better.

[@mccribb]

2:08 Jaya, yes!!! Star Wars-style scene transition to that wide panoramic vista, followed by that epic music… evocative of Lawrence of Arabia… dude, it’s absolute perfection! 😙🤌🏻 I’m nominating John for a Tubie. 🏆🥇

[@OhioPeteS2k]

I’ve been to a lot of food filling and bottling plants and it’s always nice to see small places like this making small batch products and are successful at it

[@spike_021]

The way you produced this one is like a "How it's made!" video, but even better because you add your personal touch and perspective. I loved learning about the entire process. I really need to try Yuzukosho the next time I visit because somehow I haven't yet!

[@gracesusianto736]

[@lynnkihara2323]

Love yuzu! That lemon/lime flavor with the after taste of mandarin orange. It makes the best marmalade.

[@darklightuk2]

As an Englishman I'm now very jealous, looking at my raspberry jam on toast (breakfast) and so longing to try your suggestion instead

[@coffeedudeguy]

When I discovered spicy red/aka yuzu kosho it was a game changer. Now it’s one of my favourite condiments, can be used on almost everything!

[@olve247]

"It has the scent very characteristic of Japan." So true! Luckily I can get it here in Oslo. And the taste brings me back to Japan every time. It's probably my favorite condiment too. Another great episode John! Wow, I miss Japan now!

[@user-yh7ix2ow1p]

Can you describe it's smell to someone who does not have access to it?

[@zenithrah6670]

Great vid John😄👍❤

[@maralisil]

Never disappointing with your documentaries! Well done!

[@blacksheep806]

This is like million dollar budget documentary, amazing job John!

Indeed, just the content I am here for. Thanks John.

John, you always pick the best people to interview. They are charming and informative - just like you!

Great job John. Your videos always feel so high quality!

hahahah 1:40 when he squeezes the Japanese mayo bottle 🤣🤣🤣🤣

"Its so sour!" Then promptly takes a 2nd bite lol

I had to make sure .... yeah, it’s SOUR!! 😆

[@scottjohnson921]

I'm so happy to see John getting more subscribers and views!! His channel is the best!!

[@jason_from_canada]

Yuzukosho is a such a great condiment! The video quality is stellar and the aerial views coupled with that music really helped with this unique Japanese story being told. Great job John! 👍😋

[@katieao8]

いつもジョンさんの映像をみると、日本への愛が伝わってきて、穏やかな気持ちになります。日本人でも今はなかなか旅行ができないので、地方の紹介はとても嬉しいです。ありがとうございます。 柚子胡椒買いに行きます！

[@terryallanedwards5304]

When you work hard and really care about what your doing, this is the kind of video you get, great work sir🇯🇵👍

[@Yume03]

I agree wholeheartedly Yuzu kosho is just the best condiment out there. I tried it a few years ago while visiting Japan and fell in love instantly 💕. Now every time I visit buy a bunch to take home with me since it’s basically impossible to get in my home country 😭. Now due to Covid I didn’t have it in a long time and I miss it greatly 🥺. You are so lucky to visit a factory that makes it ☺️.

[@kims8642]

Impressed with the whole hand preparation process of Yuzukosho (some serious food safety apparel there). My husband and I always enjoy your OiJ JD episodes as well as your streaming videos. Thanks so much for all your interesting and fun content!

[@hexekatos_8354]

This is the content that makes me follow John wherever he makes content to! Incredible video as always!

[@michaelsasano8622]

Oh my! Ever since I found out how much you loved yuzu kosho I went and picked up a bottle at the Marukai store and you got me hooked on that! Thank you for sharing your love for things like this and for introducing me to new flavors of Japan! Itadakimas!

[@onlyinjapan]

Thanks Michael!

[@michaelsasano8622]

@@onlyinjapan Thank "you" for everything that you do John!

[@alamri20]

An epsiode like this is not only entertaining but also educational. Great Job John.

[@TheBitzr]

Yes! Yuzukosho is my FAVORITE!!! They grow a lot of Yuzu here in Miyazaki-ken. But Huganatsu is more abundant here. And is also very very yummy!

[@MateoQuixote]

I’m watching this because I bought some Yuzu Kosho from the store only because I recently discovered yuzu and want to try it in all ways. I actually had no idea what yuzu kosho was and was really just looking for a video on how to use but instead I found this amazing explanation and lesson on it. So cool, thanks!

[@TornacenseDeFuturo]

Hi John, I always watch your videos that are “edited” (I don’t like live stream uploads), I want to say that your videos are interesting and I enjoy learning new stuff about Japan 🇯🇵 In my eyes, Japan has the most interesting culture and people in the world 🙂 Thank you for sharing with us🙏🏻

[@sonny9054]

Love yuzu pepper. Add a pinch to your soup. It immediately makes it so much more complex and flavor layered. Best souvenir to bring back from Japan.

[@raikitsune]

I'm here to comment from the live lol! We'll enjoy watching this.

[@onlyinjapan]

Thank!

[@raikitsune]

ONLY in JAPAN * John Daub no worries! The whole family is watching it now 😃

[@nguyenphamkhoi3012]

all of this video is so much work in this. i love the music background, then the content, the nature view. so much meaning and peaceful, love it, thanks John for bring this to us. I love Japan, like I learn japanese in university and now 6 years after graduated, I still love japan and definitely visit there someday

[@MarcoTW11]

I love Yuzukosho! I’ve tried some local one in the Kunisaki peninsula and was next level 🟩

[@malblount1792]

You don't need any encouragement John....your doing just great. Thankyou again for sharing this with us all 👍

First miss you dearly John Daub and your youtube channel, hope to see more awesome content. Second I'll definately check it out

[@uoftotaku7]

Great stuff as always John. Close to a 100k subscribers! Let's goooooooo

[@heyitsraprap]

I really like that the yuzukosho production still involved a lot of people from the mixing to bottling and to packaging. Not just all big and fast machines (even though that would probably speed up their production). It creates job oppurtunities for the locals there. I mean, they even have a designated person weighing each bottle!

[@Brandania_moble]

Did this motivate anyone else to just get up and go? Such great energy and well done. Today's mission is to pick me up some Yuzukoshõ 😉 Mahalo John 🤙

[@kristinl3640]

I knew yuzukosho was your favorite condiment and now I know how to enjoy it. Thank you for another informative piece. 🙏🏼

[@With_Me_JAPAN]

I live in Tokyo but some of my family members live in Kochi so I’m happy to see it is featured😆✨It has great nature and perfect weather for growing veges and fruits😊 Interesting that the color of yuzukosho is not from Yuzu but green pepper! Thank you for interesting presentation ❤️

[@onlyinjapan]

Absolutely love Kochi and can’t wait to go back, esp get some drinks at Hiromi Market when the pandemic is over! ^_^

[@With_Me_JAPAN]

@@onlyinjapan Sounds great☺️✨Bonito tataki (just grilled with straw)with some salt goes well with drinks there💕Can't wait to visit there again too!

[@Maplecook]

I used to live in Hyogo, just across the water from Shikoku, so I know that Shikoku's Yuzu are AMAZING. My favourite ポン酢 is 馬路村。It's super hard to get here in Canada, though.

[@____M_]

I just tried yuzu kosho and wanted to thank you in the comments. It really is delicious.

[@onlyinjapan]

It is - THE BEST! 😋

[@schlaus]

WIll look for Yuzukosho next time I get to my asia store.

[@draven_sword7092]

Can't get enough of this channel! Incredible informative and fun to watch :) Thank you!

[@esitu5655]

Japan needs to export this on a big scale. According to Angela of Internationally Me, she has said many yuzu fruits are left unpicked on the trees because farmers are getting older and can’t pick them fast enough.

[@alfiand9269]

Urbanization is quite a problem in Japan (also in many country) so many young gen left rural to live in big city.. no one want to be farmer

[@sdqsdq6274]

nonsense , the japs are selling fruits at ridiculous price which yuzu originated from china

[@anti_honey]

After seeing this video in bed last night, I decided to get a jar at my local Asian market. I know why this can be addicting. It reminds me a lot of chili lime. It's lemony but savory, then a mild kick follows immediately after. I ate it with grilled mackerel and some rice. Really happy that I stumbled on this video!

[@NoshAbroad]

John, Yuzu Crazy! 😉 🤣 🤣 🤣

[@onlyinjapan]

Hahaha! Yeah, Yuzu don't know how far I went to make this one!

[@mitsukisakurai]

I found yuzu kosho at my local Japanese market. It’s so addictive and I’ve eaten it with almost everything. Thanks for introducing it to us!

I found some yuzukosho on Amazon from Tokushima , I'm going to order some and try it.

It arrived in Switzerland you are great

[@mindfu11dr0n3]

the first time I ever had this was at a small yakitori spot in tokyo, and I was blown away by the burst of flavor. I asked in the most broken japanese ever, what it was and when they said yuzukosho, I repeated it in my head over and over as to not forget it. It is truly one of my faaaaavorite condiment and I go to that yakitori spot every time im in tokyo. thanks jd.

[@Air2theRon]

Yuzu is good on everything!!

[@RocKM001]

Oh man... I had a taste of Yuzu Kosho as a condiment in one of the food tours I took in Jp a few years back.... I cannot get enough of that stuff! Yuzu Kosho is sooooo addictive!

I definitely need to try this out! Thanks John for telling us about your favourite condiment 😋

Its amazing that they bottle it and mix it by hand

I absolutely love the produced content on the channel. I look forward to many years of content ❤️

[@msmarvi8]

I first heard of yuzu years ago on The Food Network through Chef Masaharu Morimoto. He explained what it was and how to use it. I can find it in many of my local Asian markets. Gosh even Walmart carries it. I am spoiled though we have 4 different specialty Japanese markets here in Orange County California that I know of. Thank you for such an in-depth report of how it comes to be the awesome sauce that is!

[@viola3581]

So interesting, I’ve never heard of this product before! ✨

[@onlyinjapan]

Oh, you definitely have to try it! I buy a jar once a month.

[@butzmn7190]

That sounds insanely delicious. My mouth was watering the entire duration of the video

[@kevins7123]

Thank you for sharing this with all of us John.

[@JH-lz4dh]

Something else I appreciate is that Japanese people aren't dubbed. I like to hear their original voices and get annoyed when other videos just cover over their voice completely!

After watching this video I went out looking for and bought some Yuzukosho. Wow, this condiment hits you in waves: saltiness, spicy burning, saltiness again, burning sensation returns, and finally a citrus aftertaste. Very interesting condiment, thanks for making me aware of it with this well made video!
