Sobre este vídeo

Welcome to The Classics - Our compilation series showing our favorite stories from the Great Big archive. Each episode brings together some of our most memorable Great Big Stories from years past: the dreamers, the makers, the one-of-a-kind originals. These classics remind us why some stories never fade. Japan’s food scene is rich with tradition, and full of surprises. First, we head to Tokyo, where takoyaki is the go-to late-night snack: crispy octopus balls, grilled to perfection and topped with savory sauce. In Toyama, ramen takes on a bold twist with jet-black broth made from five types of soy sauce and one secret ingredient. Then it’s on to Brooklyn, where a Japanese chef and her Jewish husband fuse their roots into dishes like matzoh ball ramen. We cool down with kakigori, the delicate shaved ice dessert that changes with the seasons, and finish with sushi served two ways, giant and bite-sized. From street eats to culinary experiments, this is Japanese food like you’ve never seen it before. 00:00 - Introduction 00:51 - Japan’s Perfect Late-Night Snack (Takoyaki) 03:06 - Trying Japan’s Famous Black Ramen 06:07 - Japanese and Jewish Fusion Food 09:12 - Shaved Ice, the Japanese Way (Kakigori) 11:46 - Eating Japan’s Biggest Sushi #japanesefood #japan #food #greatbigstory #documentary Welcome to Great Big Story — Where the extraordinary hides in plain sight.
