- Thank you for watching! I made one of the most (in)famous traditional Japanese foods; natto! I used to hate the flavor and texture and all, but I somehow overcame and I eat it almost everyday. It is super healthy and I've been wanting to make it at home so I gave it a try.

Thank you for watching! I made one of the most (in)famous traditional Japanese foods; natto! I used to hate the flavor and texture and all, but I somehow overcame and I eat it almost everyday now. It is super healthy and I've been wanting to make it at home so I gave it a try. ご視聴、ありがとうございます！今回は頂いたお米と自家製納豆のシンプルな一品です。昔は苦手でしたが、今ではほぼ毎日納豆を食べています。自家製だと大豆以外でも作れるので、黒豆納豆にハマっている今日この頃です。昔は苦手で、今は好きという方はいらっしゃるのでしょうか...?
Hello from London ❤
이 형님 드디어 돌아오셨네 오랜만이에요!
Never try
残念ながら苦手です。When I first tried natto I wanted to like it so bad, but I hated it! I've been trying to enjoy it but so far, I'm still not a fan. I hope I get there one day!
大人になるって大豆の旨味に気づきました。
身体にもとても良いですし😉
I like how the only positive thing he says about natto is that it's healthy. Never says it's good
I actually like the flavor now. I wasn't a fan of sushi, green tea, tomato juice, etc before...but I love them now. I think my taste has been changing as I age. ^^
@@JunsKitchen nice
What does it actually taste like? I always hear people talking about this like it's super disgusting but is that just the visual? Is the texture as slimy as it looks? I'm trying to figure out what aspects of this are bad because if it tastes OK/good I think I could try it. It is supposed to be extremely healthy.
And the fact Rachel is impressed the trash goblin, who eats literal trash, likes it says a lot.
@Lucysmom26 It tastes like beans, soy sauce and wasabi; together, they make a pretty good combination. People who are new to natto tend to struggle with the texture, which is slimy and chewy. However, many people, including myself, genuinely enjoy natto on top of rice or in miso soup.
I love how Nagi carefully ate the natto bean, but Poki just INHALED his.
His dumpster kitty instincts took over
ikr lmaoo no hesitation whatsoever
And got one stuck to his nose near the end 😂
@@mysticalmind5115 hesitation is defeat.
It’s poki 💀
nagi : carefully eats the natto bean
poki : INHALES NATTO BEAN
Poki proving who’s the most Japanese cat!
Nice copy
nagi: da hell
poki: *SCHLORP*
🤣
I love how Jun surprisingly found a Natto friend in Poki.
I know he is a former stray cat so he does have a really strong food drive but from the way he eat it, I think he genuinely like natto that Jun's make.
I wonder if we will ever see the day that Poki chooses not to eat something 😁 Love your username btw 😆
@@JCXP123 Yeah he didn't have much interest in rice.
maybe he can smell the nutrients? lol
I had some cats before that really liked malt flavor snacks. maybe it is the same taste buds.
@@ldkmelon Yes, something about the fermentation too. Every cat I've known of goes feral for bread products, across the board. It's hilarious when they just forget they're obligate carnivores lol
Jun: sets out a delicate cat-sized plate with a single bean on it for Poki to try
Poki: *HORF*
food is food
HORF
HORF
E A T B E A N
HORF
I’ve never seen such food channels turn cooking into a WHOLE MOVIE
ASMR
Jun has made several :), if you've the time I'd suggest watching his entire channel lol.
Does jun have a drone??? I was wondering how the hell he got those shots
@@juvellianscorner thats the only way you can get those shots. commercial drones are cheap now, btw.
@@RaveDecoy242 hmmm.. I bet jun is just so magical that he flies lol
I love seeing Poki's personal growth. He just sits there while Nagi is getting served first and doesn't try to steal his food. Well done, Poki!
I know TH-cam comments isn’t the place for things like this but dang, this video is bittersweet for me. I started watching Jun’s videos years ago after thinking Nagi looked a lot like mine and my wife’s orange and white tabby cat in a thumbnail, and then just loving the videos. We had to put him down two days ago after he got very sick, so man this was a mix of emotions. Many long years to Nagi and friends ❤️
So sorry for your loss. I have known it too, twice. 💔
my deepest condolences & praying for you n your wife to get through this rough time man 🖤
Same here but with Poki. He looks so much like my tuxedo baby that I had to put down back in October. It’s hard, but seeing others love their cats so much helps.
Best wishes to you and your wife, friend. A few years back I sent my little orange tabby, Pasta, to the great kitty playground in the sky and it still hurts.
But, since then I've been forcefully chosen by two new cats. 3 years ago by a tortie that just wandered into my house one day and wouldn't leave despite my attempts to leave notes for other owners, send her back out, etc. Now she's sleeping in her bed next to me in my home office, where we spend at least 8 hours every single day side-by-side.
And, my second and more recent addition: a 3-legged kitten my vet friend found and healed despite that "we usually would put a kitten in this condition down, but I thought this one had a chance." I said I'd take her, and fast forward 5 or 6 months and she's asleep on my lap while I type this and very, very attached myself and her sister--who I didn't think would take so quickly, but here we are.
I miss Pasta every day and never thought I'd have another pet after her because I was afraid it would hurt too much, y'know? But, with my new little ladies--Shoyu and Dashi--I see how happy we make each other and it brings me so much comfort to know that every day they wake up and go to sleep we bring each other a full day of happiness, comfort, and love. And in turn it reminds me that I did that for Pasta, too. Every single day of her life, from beginning to the very end, she knew there was that same creature by her side that loved her unconditionally. How many creatures in the entirety of the universe get to experience that?
I'd venture your tabby lived a life quite the same. Well done to us then, I say. :)
I'm so sorry for your loss, I know what that feels like- lost one of mine earlier this year and it's still rough. All the best for you and your wife!
Natto is an acquired taste. Meanwhile Poki gulps it down and can’t wait for more!😂
Poki is so on brand.
can't tell if Poki is sophisticated, or will just literally eat anything
@@TheMuseLuci Judging by how Poki munches away at the finger, he's either eating anything or begging for more Natto :o
I enjoyed how Poki got Extremely Concerned when Nagi got some before him.
Well Poki is a japanese cat after all, may not be the first time he tasted it in his previous life as a street cat.
adore the fact that pokki is so calm now :') lil baby was so unstoppable and yet now he's majestic
Yeah, like the brothers
I thought the same until he started literally snapping at Juns fingers because he wanted more. But yes, he came a long way.
I wonder if he still trash dives?
@@tedstrikertwa800 THAT'S WHAT I WAS WONDERING!!! ahahaha but usually when cat's calm like that, he knows that he'll be fed everyday so i don't think pokki's still interested in the trashcan anymore 🤣🤣
@@tedstrikertwa800 I think Jun has carefully catproofed their garbage cans against Poki by now, because it was a real battle for a while. Rachael almost went neurotic with how often she had to clean the stinky dumpster diving cat.
The rice harvest and polishing at the beginning was fascinating! Thank you for including it
Right? That rice polisher was so cool! It's amazing that it is electronic, implying it is at least somewhat mass produced. You wouldn't find something like that as say, a wheat grinder in North America!
@@misstweetypie1 so cool, you'll never see something like that unless you lived in a rice producing area
I was struck with the size of the harvester - less than 1/3 the size of the equivalent machines in the U.S. Since land is at such a premium in Japan, I suspect the size of the fields are equally smaller, and the amount of space needed to store the machines is an issue. I also loved the rice-husking vending machine. Again, not something you would ever see in the U.S. 🤣🥰
5:42 LOL!! Poki reaching his paw wanting to press the button is just the cutest!!
Jun: [gets a kitchen with raised everything so it hurts his back less]
Also Jun: [decides to give the ‘Big Boye’ (tm) piggy backs probably also hurting his back]
Ps. This channel is just beautiful and wholesome and 140% cat friendly
lmaoo
He doesn’t really have a choice most likely, if a cat wants a piggyback ride the cat gets that piggyback ride one way or the other
@@silaskuemmerle2505 Crooked spine, be damned!
Lets be honest. All the cats probably go outside more than some of us
I feel attacked 😭
Probably? :D
No they don't
real
Except Poki and Pichi.
Poki getting increasingly aggressive about eating the natto is GIVING ME LIIIIFE XD
The funny irony of Jun finally getting a tall enough kitchen for himself, but still choosing to clean and do other tasks in it bent down because of his love and patience for and with his cats and their liking to stand on his back while he does stuff ^.^
An unexpected sight into what true love looks like: You balancing your own wishes with the ones from your loved ones
Honestly, I'd be here if Jun posted a video that's just half an hour of drone footage around the area to relaxing music.
Yeah he could just ride around the countryside, alternating cats in the basket, with some nice piano accompaniment and I'd watch a ton of that.
@@brandonday2494 Both Nagi and Poki (and definitely Pichi) would run off and neither like to be on a leash, lol. Haku is a special case and has an uncommonly chill personality, which is why he gets to ride with Jun and even be off the leash in a lot of videos. But it's a cute concept :)
Edit: I see I was wrong, Nagi is great on a leash!
@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley Pretty sure Nagi is trained enough to not run off or anything now. He managed just fine in this video. Though he does probably need to stay in the basket or on a leash, Haku is still probably the only one who can stay off the leash.
Poki and Pichi would definitely run off though XD
@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley That's literally Nagi in the basket in this very video. Haku and Nagi are both ok with going for walks on a leash. Pichi wouldn't tolerate it. Poki maybe they could try it in the yard but yeah he's probably not game for it either.
@@brandonday2494 Oh my god, that IS Nagi! Rachel always says he's scared of everything, I didn't know he'd managed to be leash trained 😂.
I can’t believe Poki loved natto that much, he was so focused eating it 🥺 always the cutest
Most people: *takes several years to warm up to nato*
Poki: *INHALES*
I can't believe your cat likes natto! That's amazing! And seeing freshly harvested rice was so cool!
Poki is just different XD
this has been my comfort channel for years, i get so happy when i get the notification that jun or rachel posted
listen to 432Hz music or meditation music such as Ho'oponopono could help you change negative energy and relax if you want!
you can use this for relax body and soul: th-cam.com/video/acIpsyTW6SI/w-d-xo.html
Same here 😊
This is the best channel on TH-cam. Bar none. Incredible outdoor and drone footage, beautiful music, people helping people, showing agriculture and true farm-to-table preparations, professional and concise cooking instruction, and of course cats. No clickbait, no ads, no silly thumbnails, no outrageously loud or obnoxious intros, no drama, no reacting or poaching others' content. Just pure TH-camr content. If only every channel were like this.
It makes sense that the babies like Natto, cats can’t taste sweet but they can definitely smell and taste the umami!! ❤
interesting! i didn't know that - no wonder they seem to enjoy natto so much!
Didn't expect Haku being on Jun's back. Top tier cat content with a recipe video!
I have really bad sensory issues when it comes to food, but Jun always makes things look so appealing to me! There's always a sense of mysticism in his editing, and it makes it really easy to stay focused on what he's presenting.
Same! Could never eat Natto but he does a good job making it look good.
@@twistedmyth5860 Poki^
I am so delighted at how brave Nagi is these days!! Look at him enjoying a bike ride like Haku! Hopefully you guys are really proud of him and of yourselves helping him get to where he is now. I'm sure the process has been long and difficult but I see the results and they are beautiful.
Edit after finishing the video: Your work with Poki is also showing through so much! I remember when his energy was just NOT appropriate for a video on this channel. Now he's sitting politely and enjoying end cooking with Jun as the closer! From my perspective, this cat with major food security issues (which I know all too well from having a cat from the street with similar issues around food) has felt so safe in your care that he has been able to build up valuable trust that you will always give him the resources he is desperate for and more. Again I say, the results I see are beautiful and I hope you guys feel proud of your work.
jun: carefully places plate down.
poki: inhales it immediately.
I think it would be cool if you made a video where you make different types of sushi from all over Japan
Getting a JunsKitchen upload feels like receiving an early Christmas present from a kind friend
I love how when Jun says ごちそうさま Poki lifts his paw up at almost the exact same time, like he’s saying it too. 🥺
You made me cry in the first 40 seconds Jun. Lycoris Radiata. The Japanese Spider Lily. We had them all over the place in my old town of Hooks in Texas. I looked forward to seeing them every year. They're my favorite flower because of how pretty they are and they signal the start of Autumn, my favorite time of year.
I've been away from Texas for a few years now and seeing them made me very homesick.
And no, I have no idea how or why a flower native to Japan ended up spread all over a tiny, rural town in Texas of all places much less how they managed to thrive so well.
I think the taste is something that grows on you, if you're used to it since you were a kid, then you can eat it no problem. But if you've never eaten natto, it's a hit or miss.
hehehe it's so cute how Poki is like GIVE ME NATTO!!! MORE! MOOOORE!
Jun: (Makes tall kitchen so he's not hunched over to reach the counters)
The cats: (laughs in piggyback ride)
I accidentally fermented lentils once and it looked just like this! Maybe I'll experiment with this recipe and different beans to see what good foods I can make on purpose.
I'm so happy that you chose to show us natto. It is certainly an acquired taste, but one that is amazingly healthy and addictive.
Nice to see Nagi out for a ride! Gorgeous footage too. Your drone game has gotten really good. The new kitchen looks great and very cat interactive. Love it all, Jun.
Would love a video about taking the cats out on your bike.
I have begun to allow my cats who are curious to watch when I am working or cooking because of you, Jun. I have always known they were interested but didn't think they would stay focused on what I was doing. Yesterday, I found myself pulling a stool up to the front loader washer for the cat to watch the water swish the clothes 🤣
I appreciate Jun showing us the process behind the foods and when he gets the ingredients
I absolutely love the camera angles, the presentation and editing, the presentation of the story, and of course, the cats are like the audience watching you cook. Nice to see you're still doing TH-cam. Fans from Thailand
日本語字幕にユーモアがあってとても好きです。
日本人ですがこんな簡単に納豆が作れることを初めて知りました笑
北海道産大豆と、お隣り産白米の組み合わせは至高でした。^ ^
I've always wanted to try natto, but I'm allergic to soy- So it's a huge relief that not only is it a relatively easy process, but it really works with any kind of bean!! I'm definitely gonna give it a shot sometime!
I've never seen a cat that devours natto as quickly as Poki. He's much better than many of us =))
Always makes me happy to see Jun and his cats
I'm amazed that Poki liked natto. Amazeball.
The way Poki just snarfs that natto down makes me love him all the more! 🐾Poki: I'm here for the natto! Rrowrr👍
Poki has come so far in his transition from stray to house cat. Before, if he knew one of the cats(or anyone for that matter) was eating, he would try to steal it. Now he's patiently waiting for his turn.
Jun is back with his elaborate intro videos🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 I love it so much.
Jun continuing with the Natto adventures is what I'm here for!
Poki didn't even sniff the bean on his plate 😂😂😂 I love that Jun sees how much Poki likes it and gives him more. I understand too much of anything can be bad but natto has a lot of bacteria in it that's good for you. I'd imagine some of that would be (at least in small amounts) good for Poki too. Also Poki is a trash goblin (if you have cats you know) so he could probably eat anything and be fine.
Whenever I see natto, I'm reminded of the Bobobo scene in the English dub that said "these beans have spider webs in them."
Always here when we need him :). Always giving out the chill and peaceful vibe. Thanks Jun! ❤❤
Jun needs his own TV show.
It's wonderful that you have now your own amazing kitchen to share your cooking skills with us. Thank you, Jun! I like the details you show and the drone shots as well.
This is such a great channel. It's wholesome, it's about food, it has cats, it has relxaing music, beautiful shots and a whole lot more. Every video is a blessing
I was having a hard time with homework and this popped up. Yay! I appreciate the effort put into these videos.😊
The overall feeling of harmony in your videos always make my day, thank you for the contetnt!
This was so cool watching the rice being harvested. Amazing.
I've never been this excited to see a video from a channel before. It's always so calming and comfy to watch plus the background music. Just what I needed today
the music and scenery used in these videos are so relaxing. It seems amazing
These videos are always so impressive. Great work and super inspiring 👍
Me: (Beginning of the video) Ahhh Another Jun’s ingredients hunt with Hak- Wait.. WHAT?! Nagi?! Wha- Since when the prince started the ride-along training lol Seems there are lots of catching up to do
Never seen anyone make homemade natto before on TH-cam. It’s so neat!!
Hi Jun! I been watching you and Rachel for so long I’m so happy the accomplishments you guys made❤❤
Everything that Jun makes always looks absolutely delicious
So happy to see the new video!
the music and the intro shots of the fields were just so beautiful
It's always a good time to see you and the kittens 💖
暫くぶりですね！待ち侘びて居ました😊あなたの動画は本当に美しく安らぎます、そして為になります！
それに猫ちゃん達は何でそんなにお行儀が良いのでしょうか☺️
Funny how Poki just loved it instantly. Natto looks volatile, but it looks so different compared to anything I've ever tasted that I'd like to try it some day. If I ever were to visit Japan I'd definitely try it.
Wow!!! So happy to see you back, so enjoyed the video!! Glad for home and all the great things you both are achieving.
I am 100% convinced that Poki will eat anything.
Which does not surprise me XD
I find it so cool that you can get rice and have it hulled and take it home *that fresh!*
Its a good day when junskitchen uploads a video love your stuff 😃
Beautiful channel. Continue inspiring Jun & Rachel
I’ve always been waiting for Juns video! The scenery with some good background music always makes me feel happy!
I LOVE your videos. Don’t stop making videos please ❤
I will never not be amazing by the rice polishing machine!
It's so good to have JunsKitchen and family back - thanks for the wonderful video.
love how that tuxedo cat eats natto like a delicacy. really seems to love it.
I had to watch twice... once to enjoy how adorable the cats are (Haku on Jun's back KILLED me) and another time to learn about the natto!
5年前からずっと見てます！すごく好きで楽しませてもらってます！😊
Your videos are my absolute favourite! I especially love ones like this where you and Haku go out on the bike. Thank you for sharing with us!
i love watching juns kitchen, its always so relaxing
Never though you could do this homemade. I love natto! Should definitely try this someday. Nice video Jun!
This was such an interesting process to be able to see, especially live with how you filmed the fermenting process via time-lapse. I bought natto on a whim while in a local Asian grocery store near where I live in the United States and I had enjoyed it! It has become something I regularly eat! Thank you for showing that other beans could be used to make natto!
All your videos make me so happy!!
I love your videos so much, such a calming vibe!
じゅんさんの動画見る時
通知来た時の嬉しさとオープニングのリラックス効果で最高の気分になって見れるからほんと好き...
nice to see the old style videos are back!
So interesting, finally I know how rice (the plant) actually looks!
I've missed you Jun! Your uploads are the most pleasant thing on youtube!
お久しぶりです！
楽しみに待ってました☺️
Prince Nagi went with you this time! \o/
Haku ❤️ Piggyback rides!
Also, the ricefield all in 1 thresher and the rice polisher was soo cool!
Thanks Jun for the upload! Your videos always impress and inspire. It is always so calming. Always look forward to seeing more of your cat and food videos. Never stop making them!
It's so cute how much Poki loves the nato!! 🥰
Love seeing you cook with your cats, I've started to let my cats sniff the ingredients now and they seem happy to check everything out for me!
Beautiful as always, I am glad to see that you and the cats are doing well:)
the rice collecting part at the beginning got me teary. you live in such a pretty and natural place! i never knew rice deshelling machines exist. its just so pretty snd it would be so nice to go cycling between those fields in the warm sun. got me feeling al cozy from seeing you. im so grateful for your videos jun! i learn and look at so many new aspects of japan, especially its nature 😭💕
Great to see you doing your own videos again.
The vlogs on the other channel are nice but...
I really like these quiet, peaceful kitchen videos - with your kids (cats).
