  • Nabe (鍋物) is simply the name of the dish (cooking pot), so when you have nabe, there really could be anything in it. If you're from a country that has stews and soups in the winter time, this is the Japanese equivalent.

  • @LifeWhereImFrom
    @LifeWhereImFrom  8 лет назад +2201

    Haha, I think I'll try some advance question answering:
    1. I totally lied, every Japanese meal doesn't have rice. It's a bit of a joke in our family. Mummy panics if there's not rice in the rice cooker. We don't eat rice at every meal, but it's pretty rare that someone in our family doesn't eat rice at least once a day.
    2. Aiko was sick that day (as seen at the end of the video), so we didn't do much talking while filming that day. I normally wouldn't have filmed (we only film if the kids want to), but her great Uncle and Aunt had put together the meal for us just so we could film it, so we didn't want to waste the opportunity.
    3. I did the subtitles in English, but left out a few spots where I didn't quite know how to translate correctly. I'll try to get it sorted when mummy comes home tonight. If you want to sub in other languages, please be my guest :-)
    4. Oops, forgot this one! Yes, mummy doesn't like to show her face. That's just how she is. Nothing more than that :-)

It really changed me, i became more respectful and i help my mother in the house a lot! You changed me for the better! It's so addicting to watch your video's and i feel like it has alot of inpact on people. (It had inpact on me) Thank you so much. I love your channel and i'm learning so much because of your video's!

    Ingredients in order of footage:
    White rice
    Mizuna (water greens/mustard greens)
    Shitake mushrooms
    Tofu
    Cod
    Maitake mushrooms
    mackerel
    Green onion
    Enoki mushrooms
    Shungiku (crown daisy)
    Kombu(kelp) for broth
    Yuzu ponzu (tangy soy sauce)
    Guesstimate recipe:
    Boil kombu
    Add cod first
    Then medium/firm tofu
    Then shitake- maitake- enoki mushrooms
    Then green onions
    After boiling more, add shungiku
    Let simmer more
    Yuzu ponzu (citrusy soy sauce)
    Pour approx. 3 teaspoons, or 1 table spoon soy sauce into soup bowls
    In the video:
    Add tofu to soup bowls first
    Then shungiku
    Then cod (and the rest of what was boiling, but not the water)
    Roasted mackerel goes well with white rice with soy sauce
    This soup is best fresh so feel free to only use as much ingredients as you think you and your guests will have.
    If you have more ingredients after and want more, add them to the same pot and bring it back to boil.

    I know this is an older video, but in Mexico we always have beans and orange rice as side dishes for basically every meal. If not both, then at least one of the dishes. For example, this morning I had eggs, beans, salsa, and tortillas. For lunch, I had orange rice, beans, nopales (cactus), salsa and tortillas. For dinner, I had orange rice, beans, salsa, steak and tortillas. Tortillas are like our edible utensils :)

      It has to be a bit bland, but then again, the broth had kelp in it and the flavors from veggies, mushrooms and fish must have added something to the overall flavor. They also had that sauce in their bowls. The Japanese don't seem to use spices that much.

      Not Japanese, but Chinese and we have something very similar. The soup is actually rather flavourful from all the vegetables, mushrooms, and meat. We just add sauces for extra flavour but it won't be too bland on its own.

Love that it has a specific focus on Aikko's experience as a Japanese-Canadian in Japan and just adore the spontaneity of the children. My absolute favourite is the athletic park one for some reason. I saw all the videos within the span of an hour. You two must be real great parents for your children seem cheerful, interactive, uninhibited and curious at all times. Thanks for not scolding them all the time like my oh so strict parents did! Let it be a lesson to all the parents. Give a big hug to Aikko and Shin from my side. :) I would love to see them take a calligraphy lesson or visit some cool- weird restaurants in Japan or scrap all that and make a video of activities they love to do watching that will be fun!
