    Worked in a wagamama for a couple years, you came pretty close in this recipe - and probably improved it 😛). wagamama uses thigh meat instead of breast meat in their yakisoba, and we cut it much smaller, which would help cook it faster too. Similarly, we only used the green part of the spring onions, because they're thinner, but cut into larger chunks. Not sure about the recipe for the sauce, the wagamama low salt seasoning, tastes more like a blend of soy sauces, and definitely wouldn't have worcestershire in it as it's also used for vegan dishes (and if you think there's a lot of salt, you should see how much sugar the rest of the sauces have!). Also if you can find it, use a mix of white and black sesame, it adds just that little bit more to the depth of flavour.
    Keep up the great vids, always a blast to watch after work 💕

    • @Aevilbeast
      @Aevilbeast Год назад +1

      Yeah I personally thought he tried to cook too much in that smallish wok. He should did two batches, that way it cooks better and more of the noodles and veg get charred. That char is what makes yakisoba so good. IMO, it's not yakisoba without that wok hei (Just in case anyone is wondering what that is...Wok Hei is the chinese word for the flavour and tastes imparted by a hot wok on food during stir frying).
      But to really acheive that authentic wok hei, you need an extremely hot wok/burner. it's all about that high heat flash cooking. But the kind of burners you need for that style of cooking aren't exactly common in most regular kitchens...But I've always wanted one! LOL, but I'd probably end up blowing up my house in one big fire ball if I did...

    5:42 Gari is the type of pickled ginger that comes on the side with sushi, but the type of pickled ginger added to yakisoba is actually beni shouga/benishoga. gari is very thinly sliced ginger, traditionally pink but now often beige; beni shouga is like matchsticks, and a much deeper shade of magenta/red.

    • @Danny.._
      @Danny.._ Год назад +6

      also those buckwheat noodles are the traditional soba noodles for zarusoba, but yakisoba is kind of a junk food, so it uses soba noodles with a lot more normal wheat and less buckwheat so that they look much more white than those noodles.

    Also, the soba noodles you have used here are the ones that are made with dark buckwheat.
    Yakisoba uses a different type of flour and they are supposed to be white/yellow-ish. You don't use that kind of soba for yakisoba. Their taste is a bit too coarse. Yakisoba are thicker and more substantial than cheap ramen, but thinner than spaghetti. You used the type of soba you use for zarusoba or tsukesoba, not for yakisoba.

    • @Aevilbeast
      @Aevilbeast Год назад

      Very true, but I like the fact he tried to get authentic Soba, instead of just using instant ramen like so many people end up doing. Then again, some people like that I guess.

    I used to always have those little bottles of soy sauce, but then I started regularly cooking from scratch and such small bottles don't cut it any more! I make a lot of Asian dishes and soy sauce is a super key component, as you saw by having to dump a whole mini-bottle in for one meal.

    Barry, you want to use those toasted sesame seeds sprinkled generously over hot toasted, and buttered crumpets - it's a taste sensation! Also, you could swap out the salty soy sauce for alternative soy, like coconut aminos - it's made from coconut sap and is pretty close to genuine soy sauce but with a fraction of the salt content.

    2:00 "dark soy sauce" is supposed to be a different type of soy sauce that has more color and less salt. if you're using normal soy sauce there like as opposed to "light" soy sauce, then you're using the wrong thing, but your recipe will probably turn out pretty similar, if a little saltier. dark soy sauce is a common ingredient in chinese cooking used to add a darker color without adding as much salt as regular soy sauce. it's not really used at all in japanese cooking, so whoever developed this copycat recipe is probably a student of chinese cooking.

    • @Danny.._
      @Danny.._ Год назад

      also fyi, you added extra water at the beginning, so if you follow the recipe and simmer for the same amount of time it says, you'd end up with a thinner sauce than the recipe is trying to make

    Barry, I hate to tell you but actual Yakisoba doesn"t use soba noodles. My Japanese wife and I are sat here in absolute disbelief that this dish is called "Yakisoba", it's more like a stir-fry. Oh well, I'm glad you enjoyed the one in "Selfish" lol.

  • @jasmeralia
    @jasmeralia Год назад

    If you like Yaki soba, you should try Yaki Udon. The noodles are a bit thicker, maybe more of or a thicker sauce, but beef yaki udon is probably my favorite Japanese dish now that I don't do seafood. (A med I was on in the past completely ruined me for seafood... the smell nauseates me now. I was never really much on shellfish, but tuna melts, fish and chips, sushi/sashimi... i miss them.) There's a big Asian population here in WA state, so there are tons of teriyaki type restaurants in the area. Unfortunately, my roommate isn't frequently in the mood for Asian food (although, to be fair, she loves Mexican and I really do not).

    The soba noodles you used which are mostly buckwheat aren't used in stir fried dishes, I think; they're used for noodle soups and cold dishes where the soba are dipped into a sauce.
