  • Chopsticks can be difficult to learn to use. Some countries in Asia have specific types of chopsticks and specific etiquette on how to use them. Many people don't notice the difference between types of chopsticks, so today I will be comparing Chinese, Japanese, and Korean chopsticks.

      Food smells seem to turn men on more than others. Turmeric, vanilla, allspice, and other spices have been used as or in perfume, and perfume smelling of pumpkin scores well, too, if I recall correctly.
      There are many good smells in Chinese food that might work in a fragrance and might not be that hard to reproduce. Our man is onto something delicious here.

    Since i was stationed in Korea in 2006, i use that style of chopstick more frequently than the others. I bought a set of 10 stainless steel chopsticks and then bought the Japanese style in bamboo and use those as well for eating all Asian dishes. I make sure to use a spoon for my rice, and that is how i have taught my kids to eat Korean food.

    2:16 the flat metal chopsticks in this photo is the most common standard chopstick you’d find in a Korean home. Also the traditional korean etiquette is to eat rice and soup with spoon and side dishes with chopsticks. And DON’T lift your bowl from the table.
    The one he has is actually a chinese chopstick, or more like how chinese chopsticks made and sold in korea are like. They are vacuum hollow on the inside so they are very light and are found in many school and hospital cafeterias.

I can't do the Korean metal ones, though I do use the Korean spoons with the round vs oval shaped heads. The metal ones just hurt my hands too much, especially the solid/slender type more typically found in Korean homes than the hollow rounded version you demonstrated with.

    Great research!! I want to add more things about Korean's chopsticks though. why are Korean chopsticks flat and made out of steel instead of wood? well because we sometimes use chopsticks for tearing apart Kimchi and fish etc. and sometimes Korean banchans (sidedishes) are heavier than the other countries' so we don't like wooden chopstick because it is bent and twisted sometimes when you grab heavier things among banchans. and you have to use metal chopsticks especially when you have a Samgeytang or Gamjatang because you have to separate your bone between meat with metal chopsticks. and think about Korean bbq. if you use wooden chopsticks then your chopstick will burn by the fire.

      I'm Korean and one of my best friends is Japanese! I think Korean pop culture owes a lot to the Japanese. Also was going to say I prefer Japanese chopsticks. Been using them for years, and the lightweight pointed tips work well with what I eat. Don't want to seem like I'm downing my own culture. Korean food is still my favorite food. Just saying both cultures have a lot to offer, and are similar in many ways.

They were like flat and thin. I ended up preferring them though, especially when I'm cooking. Chinese chopsticks are a bit awkward to hold for me because they're so big but I can still use them okay.

    Koreans are right to just eat rice with a spoon. Ironically, [in my opinion] chopsticks feel better to use than western utensils most of the time, but it's when you have food like rice that it's better to use the western instrument.

      In terms of SE Asia the Chinese-style food is eaten with chopsticks, but some of the more local dishes, especially rice, are eaten with a spoon and fork, where the fork is used to shovel rice into the bowl of the spoon from a flat plate. Or you use hands.
      Chopsticks are more suited for the Asian style of eating though.... Western meals tend to be large slabs eg. steak, chicken drumsticks, meatloaf, etc rather than Asian dishes where everything's in bite sized pieces already so it's easier to pick up, and as for rice it's normal in Chinese etiquette to pick up the bowl and hold it to your mouth anyway. On the other hand, with Korean etiquette, picking up the bowl is bad manners, hence the spoon to scoop it.
      This is from personal observation anyway, and as a SE Asian person who frequently eats East and SE Asian food

      Generally, you only need the chopsticks to be twice the size of your index finger to find the same level of comfort. Prior to that, it's a problem of getting used to and developing the technique, although it's generally said that it's easier to start with ones which fit the size of your hands better.
      What I find interesting is that each cuisine tends to be designed and shaped around their respective pair of chopsticks.

      I don't really like the flat Korean chopsticks. They are hard to grip since you are only gripping on 2 of the sides (either the flat sides or the thin sides). Chinese and Japanese chopsticks are better since you have equal proportions on all 4 sides. That's my opinion. But, the metal chopsticks are easier to clean/wash tho. Washing chopsticks can be a nightmare lol

      Some Japanese chopsticks have textured ends, but it's not really typical, the "classic" Japanese chopstick is made from lacquered wood along its whole length, which is pretty slippery.
      I like Japanese chopsticks because their light weight and greater taper make them feel much more "manoeuvrable"....
