      This also seems to be a reaction from Epicurious from negative comments from pro chefs adding a bunch of random things in previous videos. Personally, I like this format better because it showcases what a person with training and years of experience can do with random stuff people will have around the house. Chef Yuji really shined in this episode with his creativity and explaining things in a way that it just sounds like everything he is doing is something you can do yourself. And I will be trying to make this curry.
      Chef Yuji's reaction to Daniel's well made curry was great too. Hope to see these two paired together more in the future.

    Without the geoduck, Daniel's guess of $150 for the remaining ingredients was $30 short. I don't think that's his closest guess ever, but I just thought that was interesting. The price of the alcohols and proteins in these videos can change the final total so much if the home cooks aren't familiar with them. I think they've figured out most of the 'normal' fancy chef ingredients are going to be $5 more than they cost at a regular supermarket.

    I'm Japanese, cheap home chef.
    This video is little complicated.
    Japanese curry is super simple to cook and yummy.
    All you need are,
    S&B middle spicy curry roux $5
    potato $1
    carrot $0.5
    onion $1
    pork $4 (Pork is most popular)
    1tsp of ginger and garlic
    and Japanese rice you can find at Walmart asian section.
    This is the basic. It's better to not add something else, some other ingredients. Don't try to add something until you understand the taste of basic recipe. I wouldn't recommend celery. Using chicken is not basic, buy pork meat.
    Stir everything, pour in boiling water, simmer for 20 mins, put in roux and mix. That's it! EASY.
    Once you master the basic recipe, try adding chicken katsu. Use butter when you stir. Simmer ingredients with bay leaf. etc etc.

      Well it reminded me of Awashima Hotel curry. Not as over the top as Yuji's attempt at curry. But it's proper hotel curry that will leave a hole in your wallet if it doesn't leave your taste buds asking for more. Costs $25 for a pack. So Yuji's curry would have went for 33 dollars a serving to a whopping $100. But it's serious quality as it has garnishes on the sauce and the sauce is actually seperate so you can dole up as much you like on your rice like a fine gravy

    Oop. Daniel has embodied his final form as a bona fide daddy. Especially when he’s cracking dad jokes like, “Will it taste it gooey or will it taste ducky?”

  • @huckleton
    @huckleton 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    really appreciate how open-minded daniel is about weird-looking japanese ingredients. as someone raised by a licensed japanese chef i nearly SCREAMED when i heard the "i'm going to make udon noodles"

    It's insane how I like Yuji's carry more! The difference in ingredients is radical, but this video proves presentation even with cheap products can look better than with expensive ones!

  • @angeltrip
    @angeltrip 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    this was an incredible video. both of these chefs are amazing people and were very entertaining. i loved their energy.
    i also feel like i learned so much! i have a few boxes of golden curry at home, this definitely opened up my eyes and inspired me to get creative with the curry. i love curry! can’t wait to see some more videos with Yuji and Daniel.

  • @marcofarish2588
    @marcofarish2588 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    The idea that the next day the leftovers are genuinely better is so true. It's the same with authentic Indian food. there was a buffet I'd frequent back in the day that was significantly better in the evening than in the morning b/c that food has been cooking literally all day. Like you can't tell me saag paneer today is better than saag paneer tomorrow, it's literally not true

    • @crowdemon_archives

  • @meteorcat0730

    I love how Yuji just looks over the ingredients he got and is ok with them, saying he can work with them, while Daniel is just questioning what the in the devil's name he's supposed to do with the high-end ingredients before him lol.

    Do you have any idea how hard it is to find Japanese curry around me? I even tried Indian curry and it just wasn't the same. I need some

    • @JS-fw1ip
      @JS-fw1ip 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Just immediately, order online,
      I crave it once a month. but don't buy the golden curry brand like in the video above.
      It tastes bland with poor consistency. You can see some online reviews also said the same thing.
      Buy the House brand, there are many types but they are all good and unique.
