  • The announcement of the theme ingredient from the Rice Battle, Iron Chef Chin vs Premier Chef Kou Houkou of Sanpokaku, Okayama. This is pretty much the funniest theme announcement out there - and of course, Chairman Kaga does it effortlessly.
    Original video from www.ironcheffans.info

    • @foskco87
      @foskco87 9 месяцев назад +9

      I totally agree. The quirkiness and mystique of this random Japanese cooking show that seemed to appear out of nowhere onto mainstream western TV is sort of what made it so captivating. It was also basically the first of it's kind... Iron Chef is the reason we have so many competitive cooking shows today. I think by the time the American version came around the novelty of competitive cooking shows was already starting wear off and it had become oversaturated. One of the best things about the original Iron Chef was that FUJI TV had full control over it and so it remained more or less true to the Japanese version - aside from the English overdubbing it was essentially identical.

      From what I remember, this was a highly *contentious* episode, with judges split 2-2, and IC Chen winning by a single point. (He was working on a samgyetang-style dish which wouldn't have been cooked in time if he didn't do something else with it - at the end, it looked like a hacked-up nightmare...) They're both Chinese chefs, so of course they can cook rice - but they probably have never cooked an entire meal based on rice. That was the core difficulty.

      Nah, the word for uncooked rice is "kome" - and in other cases, he simply announced the name "kome" in his usual dramatic fashion. However, since he said "in each grain..." (hito-tsubu hito-tsubu ni), he decided to name each individual grain "kome", which relates to his mentioning that "(in China), it is said that God (or a god) exists in each grain." It's just amusing that he decided to try to name each individual grain - to the surprise of the crew and Iron Chef Chin.

      In a way, he's right. Rice is indeed the sustenance of many, and that phrase "God exists in each grain..." is quite apt for the occasion. 😊

    I'm actu disappointed. There's so many varieties of rice in the world, and this is the best they could do?

      The Iron Chef competition is to prepare original dishes never seen before. So Rice is a Beast-Mode level ingredient. What are you going to do with rice to create a new dish never before seen?
