"This is why I gave you this recipe. Each person makes the same dish differently." Maybe I'm a sentimental fool, but this made me feel all warm and fuzzy. By sharing a recipe you love, you're giving the recipe a new life, but also sharing a part of yourself with someone you esteem! Yeah, I'm kinda sappy, but I love food.
@@lasagnaisjustspaghetticake4949 aww thanks! I guess I kinda got it because I feel the way that Andrew felt getting that recipe is probably how I felt when I got my bestie's Cheesecake recipe.
This is the 3rd time Chef Motokichi and Andrew have gotten together and their chemistry is so obvious. It doesn’t matter that there is a language difference because it is not a barrier between their connection. So glad Andrew attempted this stew!
I really appreciate how respectful and gracious Andrew is, especially being the White guy trying to recreate a Japanese chef's dish. It's never like, "Watch me conquer/master this dish while obnoxiously acting like I'm the expert." He really does his best to give the chef a voice and platform and actively tries not to take things out of context for a cheap bit or to "translate" too hard for his audience. It makes me respect him all the more.
While I would agree that Andrew is lovely and respectful, I wouldn't say the dish is particularly Japanese, even though the chef is. The dish is very French.
@@bongaz3547 Not really about race but where the cuisine originates, in this case the Ox tongue stew has French techniques involved instead of Japanese
it is great that he is so respectful, but its not like this is cultural approriation. this is a french/western dish that the japanese took and put a spin on.
The only shot of serotonin I get these days, honestly. The amount of PATIENCE this took is insane! And also I love how Chef Motokichi calls Andrew 'handsome' every time 😭
That chef should have his own cooking show! He’s so darling and happy. Great job, especially making roux. You’ve mastered that so you should make yourself a pot of gumbo. 😋
Wow, I can't get over how he was willing to video all his steps for Andrew!! Also - I don't think its just my imagination - I think Andrew's cooking skills are at a much higher level than when I first started watching the "Eating My Feed" videos.
Omg the fact that he called his Omurice pan Omu-Chan just made my day. I wish they would have made a character based on him in Shokugeki No Soma / Food Wars. Coolest chef ever.
I love how he incorporated this little shot of his cat looking at the oven, kind of thinking “what the floof are you doin hooman? “ Also love to see how you’re so not sure if this will turn out as you remember but make it feel confident and respectful for the chef too You’re one of my favourite chef Andrew
The chef from Japan makes me sooooo happy. He is joy personified. Just a two minute dose of him singing "Oh yeah" has cured any and all pandemic blues I may have had.
Chef Motokichi is the Bob Ross of cooking. There's just something nice about watching someone who obviously enjoys what they do and even more wholesome when they actively spread that joy. As he said in another video, enjoy cooking!
I love your kitchen. I love your All-Clad cookware. I love your enthusiasm to create such a complex dish. I love this video! Please keep making this kind of content! Just fantastic!
Chef Motokichi's words really struck me seriously, because I feel this same way about food. My aunt had this amazing ability to cook. She could cook dishes with no recipe, just out of her head and everyone loved them. They'd ask her for the recipe, and she'd give it. They'd make it and it wasn't even REMOTELY like what she made. For years I've heard that "she wouldn't even give us the ingredients that went in it, it was totally different!" But when I asked her for a recipe and she gave it, I managed to turn out an identical copy of what she had made... so I think it is part the ingredients that go in it, and part the amount of how much we resonate with that recipe. Our dedication to following it and making it taste delicious, and also aligning to what is delicious to each person. combined with experience, of course. A newbie chef can't expect to turn out the ox tongue stew the Chef made right out of the gate... but someone who has been cooking for ten, fifteen, twenty years has a much better chance of turning out something very similar to it. Even having the recipe itself, it's not a guarantee that you'll turn out the same product. Just about every chef has made something from a recipe and something absolutely different (sometimes horrendous, other times actually surprisingly good) turns out of that weird result. But only by making the same dish over and over and trying new things each time that weren't done before can we finally accomplish a proper result to what the masters have labored to create. No carpenter starts with building an entire house, right?
I'm so glad that Andrew tried the roux. I really wanted to know what it tasted like when he was making it and I wasn't disappointed when he said that it tasted like if toast was a sauce 🍞🍲
Chef Motokichi is a gift to this earth such an amazing person. The way he interacts with Andrew is magic and so genuine I would love to see more of him
Andrew's skills at cooking have came up light years from the first videos I've watched years ago. Seems so much more confident and at ease. Keep up the great work. Look forward to the content on this channel.
Yeah. I just watched the taco for Ryan one yesterday. That wagyu taco reminded me of making the most luxurious rice bowl I will probably ever make out of leftover wagyu carppacio that my brother in law brought for a party a while back. I found it in the back fridge a couple days later and...well I took it, hehehe.
As soon as the camera turned off, Adam kicked down the door and glared at Andrew until he was given the rest of the pot. Legend says he almost cracked a smile like he did on the original “Worth It” episode. Almost.
Fun fact about roux: in central Asia we have a festival of spring equinox named Navruz. During this festival one of the main dishes being prepared is 'sumalak' which is basically caramelized roux. It actually becomes very sweet and the funniest thing about it is the fact that there's absolutely no sugar added.
"Back in time, did people just stand around seeing how long they could cook things for?" Andrew saying the things we're all thinking are probably true and accurate.
I was smiling watching this the whole time!! I absolutely love Chef Motokichi's energy and I kept hoping that when he watches, he's proud of Andrew's efforts 😂
Oh maaaaannnn! Andrew, that came out looking SO GOOD! My roommate was eating some Indian food too, so I felt like I could smell it the whole time, and it was basically the best! I definitely want to try some if I'm ever in Japan! (I don't think I'll be trying to make my own though.)
Im so happy to see Chef Motikichi once more helping Andrew to make something... Chef Motikichi its not only a pretty much an expert about cooking... He is so kindy even if he is sharing his own recipes
Very interesting. Chef Motokichi rocks. My German grandmom (born 1880) often cooked over high heat, too. She used to say, you don't need to adjust the heat, you control the pan. Perhaps this was because she cooked on a wood stove until she was close to 50?
also worth mentioning , i remember my first impressions of andrew, and i remember seeing how even if he was standoffish it always came through when he really enjoyed something- but with recent episodes he’s enthusiastic and high energy and i love the creation of this channel and i’m rooting for you guys.
On new year's eve a few years ago, I tried to recreate Chef Motokichi's omurice (didn't quite get the texture down, was a little overdone), and DM'ed a picture to him on Instagram of the result. He was so gracious and kind 💜. He is such a sweet man, and a great spirit, and it's a dream of mine to travel to Kyoto to try his food🥰🥰 One day I will get there.
You can't convince me they're not the same person. Have you ever seen Rihanna and Chef Motokichi together at the same time (without proving there aren't body doubles)?
A lot of long term cooking techniques were discovered by accident. A dark roue is just one that has been left to cool and brought back up to temperature without adding more ingredients (or rescued at the last second). Cured Icelandic shark is a cool example (because it was discovered relatively recently), it's poisonous before it's fermented and the first fermentation was accidental.
that chef will always be the closest thing that we'll get to an anime protagonist chef
Ikr! He reminds me of Soma's dad from Food Wars
God yes!
The hair and personality just screams it
He is namba wan
does anyone also notice about his contact lenses? that also makes him more anime-esque
So damn fcking true ❤️
Chef Motokichi is just an amazing human being.
Yeah he's precious.
@@Kavriel yes he is
3:49.
This guy is a treasure.
couldn’t agree more

Sentimental? Yes. A fool? Absolutely not.
I loved this.

We need a whole show with just Andrew & Chef Motokichi.
YES
And rie too for translation 😂
@@abhishekbiswas9537 yup
Along with rie
I want to learn Japanese just so I can talk to him lol
This is the 3rd time Chef Motokichi and Andrew have gotten together and their chemistry is so obvious. It doesn’t matter that there is a language difference because it is not a barrier between their connection. So glad Andrew attempted this stew!
what was the second time?
@@ishaanhall78 if im not wrong. Its the video about making omurice
@@ishaanhall78 he met chef before worth it once to remake the omurice, then they met again on worth it
I love the chemistry between Chef Motokichi and Andrew. And adding Rie to that mix makes it amazing.
He's so animated, I imagine it was hard to translate!
I think he (Chef Motokichi) would be fine with anybody who wasn't a total @ss.
The trio of characters we never knew needed but the one we deserved

he's not wrong lol.
@@erichuang8534 yahhh
Wow! I didn't catched that! Brilliant!
@@Aaackermann haha
😂
I'm here still waiting for Andrew's book with the title: "the fundamentals of why something tastes good"
Same
Yes
.....*bleeeeep*
Now that is a good cookbook title 😉
kinda imagining it to be like a novel tbh, for me atleast
The only shot of serotonin I get these days, honestly. The amount of PATIENCE this took is insane! And also I love how Chef Motokichi calls Andrew 'handsome' every time 😭
I mean the man knows how to look good
I love how Andrew is being all respectable but chef motokichi is just goofing around and having fun🤭😅
The combination is quite delightful if you ask me
@@ritameow9227 yeah it definitely is 😅 and rie as the middleman is enjoying the most
The joy that Chef Motokichi can bring to others is amazing!
They should do worth it, but for food they cooked. “Is it worth the effort?”
oh that would be so cool!
Yaaas
Dish granted on watcher with Steven kinda does that
Steven does something like this on his show "Dish Granted"! You can watch the first season on their Watcher channel.
Chef Motokichi is the embodiment of "Love your job and you will never have to work a single day in your life" .
That chef should have his own cooking show! He’s so darling and happy.
Great job, especially making roux. You’ve mastered that so you should make yourself a pot of gumbo. 😋
He actually has his own RUclips channel
His instagram is very active as well.
"if toast was a sauce"
-Andrew, Jan 2021
I can only imagine his electricity bill after using his oven for 20+ hours
Oh no if I did that my mom would be pissed...
Uhhh I think ovens usually use gas...so it wouldn't affect his electric bill at all.
that is a gas range. but even if it somehow used electric for the stove, it wouldnt be much. doesnt take much to get it to temp or hold it
@@michellebowen1194 oh
To be honest... is it even safe to sleep and let the oven on?
chef Motokichi has the most funniest way to talk and make people laugh but also teaches them perfectly.
Can we take a second to appreciate Chef Motokichi’s hair colour and lenses? So kawaii!
Wow, I can't get over how he was willing to video all his steps for Andrew!! Also - I don't think its just my imagination - I think Andrew's cooking skills are at a much higher level than when I first started watching the "Eating My Feed" videos.

Andrew be competing with Alvin....just 4 more hours he could have got a 100hr ox stew😂
Chef Motokichi is like the Bob Ross of cooking. He’s just such a nice human being
Bob Ross might be the furthest comparison I’ve ever heard. I can’t think of someone less like him 😂
I love how he incorporated this little shot of his cat looking at the oven, kind of thinking “what the floof are you doin hooman? “
Also love to see how you’re so not sure if this will turn out as you remember but make it feel confident and respectful for the chef too
You’re one of my favourite chef Andrew
Genuinely one of my favorite chefs in the Worth It series. So kind and creative!
I can't stop smiling whenever Chef Motokichi is on screen!
Chef Motokichi would be the most amazing uncle or grandfather to have in the family. What a wholesome individual with amazing cooking skills.
Ohmygod at the start I thought I could make this at home but then I guess it'd be easier to go to Japan and taste it hahahahaha
Faster also
And cheaper with all those hours in the oven 😂
I'm just gonna go ahead and say it.
Chef Motokichi is the Bob Ross of cooking.
I wish they'd make Japanese subtitles for this so the chef can watch/react to this!
Why isn’t there a link to his pan in the description:(
i love that theyre basically besties now
i need that chef's energy in my life💕
HE'S SO EXCITED ABOUT HIS OWN BRAND OF COOKING PAN AHH PROTECT HIM AT ALL COST
The chef from Japan makes me sooooo happy. He is joy personified. Just a two minute dose of him singing "Oh yeah" has cured any and all pandemic blues I may have had.

PLEASE have Chef Motokichi on for another recipe! He's such a sunshine!
Honey, put the pot on, I'll be hungry in a week
I would definitely buy Chef Motokichi's pan even tho I barely cook
I'm so glad Chef Motokichi is thriving~ This is such a good episode! Thank you for showing the process that goes into this amazing dish!!
Mad respect for Andrew for attempting a dish that is incredibly intimidating and arduous and then proceed to not screw it up on the first go.
I love your kitchen. I love your All-Clad cookware. I love your enthusiasm to create such a complex dish. I love this video! Please keep making this kind of content! Just fantastic!

Chef Motokichi is the most wholesome being in existence. It's a pleasure seeing him anywhere
I'm so glad that Andrew tried the roux. I really wanted to know what it tasted like when he was making it and I wasn't disappointed when he said that it tasted like if toast was a sauce 🍞🍲
This was a very heartwarming video. I love Andrew's dry humour and Chef Motokichi's utter excitement and flavour.
Either Andrew moved or he was always in someone else's kitchen in previous "home" videos. (I'm not referring to the Tasty kitchen episodes)
I think its more he switched angles
@@RegstarRogstar Except for his old place had white appliances and was a galley style kitchen with a washer and dryer in the closet behind him?
This man just a made a tongue-burning joke and I'm here for it.
Chef Motokichi is a gift to this earth such an amazing person. The way he interacts with Andrew is magic and so genuine I would love to see more of him
the way my face absolutely lit up, like i cannot stop smiling after chef motokichi sang the "happy happy happy" tune is wonderful
Andrew's skills at cooking have came up light years from the first videos I've watched years ago. Seems so much more confident and at ease. Keep up the great work. Look forward to the content on this channel.
Just when you thought Andrew's cooking was already amazing, he gotta adjust the cameras and film at the same time.
Chef Motokichi seams like the sweetest human being ever 😍😍 he’s always so happy 😍😍
Andrew’s kitchen is so aesthetically pleasing.
i'm so proud of Andrew for accomplishing this and the Chef is just so pleasant to watch he's so genuine!
It looks so goodddd ✨ btw, I love Andrew's reaction when he tasted the ox tongue
I just love that chef his smile makes my day 🥺✨🌞
doing "eating your feed" to the next level!
Whenever Andrew or Chef motokichi or Rie smiled my heart just died . These many wholesome people in one video felt so good I kept crying....
ANDREW try and make the omelet omurice again with the demiglaze sauce!!
Everytime I see Chef Motokichi I can't stop smiling!! He's sooooo happy and infectious I love his spirit!
Love this series of Chef Motokichi and Andrew... I mean you guys make a great team 😀
I still can't get over the chef's pant (that he's wearing in his restaurant) . It's so casual. I love it.
Who had thought that after eating it for years both Andrew and Steven would have shows where they cook gourmet food.
Yeah. I just watched the taco for Ryan one yesterday. That wagyu taco reminded me of making the most luxurious rice bowl I will probably ever make out of leftover wagyu carppacio that my brother in law brought for a party a while back.

I think "not a lick of information" is a strong alternative
An amazing chef, an amazing recipe, and Andrew is also an amazing student here. This stew sauce is truly liquid gold.
We all know in ourselves, Chef Motokichi is our favorite interviewed person on Worth it.
chef motokichi will always have a place in my heart. if it wasnt for covid i probably have tasted the food he makes
"its important to not burn the tongue, because then you will not be able to taste anything."

On worth it show! I never thought Andrew is such a wonderful cook . Loved his whole chicken chalange as well. The way he butcher chicken hats off😎
Chef Motokichi is just a ball of energy that radiates it all over even through a screen. Idk how he does it but hats off to you!!!!
This group filling the void left by BA group
your kitchen is so aesthetically pleasing

I wish i had the energy and radiance of Chef Motokichi ... what an absolute star
Such a wholesome human being
I'm convinced he is straight out of food wars-
Chef Motokichi is so pure!
Everyone: I WANT TO BE RIHANNA
me : I WANT TO BE CHEF MOTOKICHI
both equally impossible not gonna lie
You can't convince me they're not the same person. Have you ever seen Rihanna and Chef Motokichi together at the same time (without proving there aren't body doubles)?
Kichi kichi is just a freaking sentient being, he is above us and we are looking at him from below.
A lot of long term cooking techniques were discovered by accident. A dark roue is just one that has been left to cool and brought back up to temperature without adding more ingredients (or rescued at the last second).

Adam loves the tongue 😜😂😂
Chef is just so wholesome. Omg.
the amount of effort andrew and the whole team has to put into this video is insane.. LIKE THIS VID NEEDS MORE APPLAUSES
okay but where is the blue sweater Andrew's wearing in the intro from
Chef Motokichi is wholesome. Absolutely wholesome and it just brings me so much job.
