@@brickpuncher1429 In Italian when a “c” is followed by an “i” it makes a “ch” sound. So if you were to remove the “h” (it prevents the “ch” sound) from gnocchi, you’d have the pronunciation you want.
@@Jennifer-tx6dj it makes me genuinely sad they don't promote his channel more on this channel. Even if it's been over a year of posting he deserves props for his hard work and dedication.
Yea I do miss Alvin's own cooking channel vibe. It's like a lofi channel for cooking. But nevertheless i'm glad he found a great place in the Babish Culinary universe.
I'm studying in Hokkaido University right now, and you would not believe how happy seeing this video in my subscription feed made me. I love this regional food and I'm so glad you are sharing such a great interpretation of it!
@@CrimsonCrafterYT yeah when alvin said “hokkaido style potato mochi” it finally clicked my understanding as to why they loved potato mochi in legends hahah
For those who kept saying that the Taisho time period (1900s) in Demonslayer is different from what Alvin described as 1800s . Imo~mochi had been around much longer . Maybe from the 1500s when potatoes or jaga~imo were introduced into Japan by Dutch traders. 😅 Local taro were also used in place of potatoes.
4:53 "And I feel like this is the kind of thing they made back in the 1800s, maybe around when 'Demon Slayer' was happening." -Alvin People are pointing that out, not because they think potato mochi was invented in Demon Slayer, but because they wanted to correct Alvin that Demon Slayer was not set in the 1800s. Demon Slayer is actually a lot more modern than Westerners seem to think. Demon Slayer was essentially set in the "Roaring 20s" of Japan, but it mostly focuses on rural areas, so we don't see a lot of that modern technology, hence why people think Demon Slayer is set in an earlier time period. Thank you for sharing a cool fact about potato mochi (and about taro being used as a replacement). I just don't think it's relevant to what other people are saying.
Yeah, I thought that the 1800s was a little to early for demon slayer as we can see vehicles, electrical wires, and much more advanced technology that wouldn’t be in Japan in the 1800s.
Oh dang, I just bought ingredients to make potato mochi as my daughter has been playing pokemon legends arceus recently, looks like i have more than a recipe now, but a full blown tutorial
Finally something I can try. I never have the ingredients, except I don't think Yukon potatoes are available here. My potatoes are nameless. And I don't have sake, never have had sake. And then you bring out that cheese. Never seen mozzarella like that in any store around here. Glad to hear the ones without cheese was better.
You can use Chinese cooking wine, shaoxing, or use dry sherry OR omit sake entirely, but add same amount of water. It does add a bit of flavour, but it's not crucial for this recipe. If you have choice between soft and hard boiling potatoes, go for the soft boiling ones (the type that is better for potato mash). As for cheese, this mozzarella is the dryer, aged type, you can deffo substitute it with something like Edam or Gouda, but it really is super optional here.
For the next anime food, I was wondering if it would be cool to see the lime parfait from Tenkai Knights? It's a very underrated show that's not as well known as the bigger name shows.
I know this isn't anime, but could you recreate the Island dish from Larva Island (S1:EP10 - Master Chef)? I think it would be unique and interesting to try to make the dish that revolves around the design of an island with special features that make the dish the way it is. 😊
I was wondering if you could do a video on the boiled cream treats from Skyrim. I just recently saw your sweet roll video and always thought the treats looked better so figured I'd ask.
if you work the potato more in it's mashed form, you can get it to have more of a gummy mochi-like texture. usually something you avoid when you're making mashed potatoes, but i bet it would be great for this dish and hold the cheese better.
Just one teensy bitsy comment: Demon Slayer was set during the Taisho era, which is between 1912 and 1926. So, not 1800s (which would've been sometime during the Edo period where you wouldn't see uniforms like that).
I don't know if this is in any anime, but since this is Alvin's channel now, could you make inarizushi? I haven't had it in 7 years and don't live in japan anymore.
I have sweet rice flour that's 9 mo past expiration date. I kept it in the refrigerator but wondering whether I can still eat it. Can I still eat it? and how long can I eat it?

I miss when this channel was called Binging with Babish. Nothing against all the new people, but they don't really click with me. looking at this channel now I feel a sense of melancholy because Alvin has pretty much taken over. I know that a lot of people like his content, but there's a fairly vocal part of the channel that isn't liking it. personally I sort of feel like it should be its own channel entirely, but that's just me.
3:07 on that note, this is why babies should sleep in their own crib, on their backs, and on a harder surface to prevent suffocation on soft materials. For the same reason, elastic materials like plastic bags and balloons are really bad choking hazards.
If anyone is curious the difference between gnocchi dough and this dough is that gnocchi has regular flour and egg!
it's the same dough as in silesian dumplings
@@misiek100020 never heard of those!
Gnocchi (Tried to combine mochi and gnocchi, failed miserably and just ended up with gnocchi, please pronounce the "ch" like it is in mochi? Thanks)

potato mochi was also in pokemon legends arceus so this kinda also counts as an arcade with alvin 😌
Sinnoh/Hisui is also literally just Hokkaido so the origin location lines up too
@@CrimsonCrafterYT yeah when alvin said “hokkaido style potato mochi” it finally clicked my understanding as to why they loved potato mochi in legends hahah
I presume the PLA version is the same but without the nori sheet and slathered with more sauce on a plate.
@@algoprasetyogreat
I had potato mochi once and loved it. Now I can make it myself. Yay.
These episodes are so relaxing to watch
Ah, the fried potato mochi Zenitsu was eating before explaining to Tanjiro how he does his Thunderclap and Flash. Loved this scene in the new season.

Definitely a recipe I'll have to try sometime. Also, not to be "that guy", but the series is set in the Taisho Period, aka between 1912 and 1926.
That you for being that guy, cuz I was about to be
as was I
I was about to be that person
Was looking for that comment
Unrelated, but the fact that it takes place in slowly-becoming-facist militaristic Japan explains why there are no non-Japanese slayers. Cause racism.

“Kinda like wrapping up a little baby in its blanket and completely suffocating it.” Jesus, dude.
I would definitely make these during Hanukkah alongside the traditional Jewish latke recipe my family uses.
Can you please make the chocolate curry buns from the anime black butler? Black Butler has many recipes that look soo mouthwatering 🤤
Truly the most _apeeling_ fried mochi ever xD
A pun that everyone else couldn't have thought of.

Can you make Chocolate Curry Buns from Black Butler
Ouch! Sorry about peeling yourself! And then losing the potato! Potato mochi sounds like something I need to make!
That looks delicious 😋

At this point they need to rename the channel to Binging with Alvin since hes on here more than anyone else it seems
Cause he's leeching off of Andrew
@@lucid._.dreamr6777 No.
For the sticky glaze ... Combine half cup of soy sauce, half cup of suger, 4 tbsp of niemniem and 4 tbsp of sake
I love the gloves my dad found to wear while using a vegetable peeler or a mandolin. I'm still careful but i feel less worried about cutting myself.
Alvin, please recreate the Phantom Ramen from Space Dandy.
Pork + Demon Slayer=Tasty
Day 3 of asking Babish to make Nugget in a Biscuit from the Tobuscus song
Quinton Reviews already did that one
Oh im so making these! Alvin always gives me the best ideas 💡 😍
Love how I got an ad before this video and this channel was the focus
Just made this yesterday after watching the video and it was incredible
"sticky sauce we see..." Tbh, every time they mix Sake, Mirin and Soy Sauce I'm just thinking "Oh, so you're making teriyaki sauce then?"
The voice of a sage, the knife skills of like, a dude who picked up a knife one time.
Voice of Andrew imitator.
"Until it's completely suffocated"
ON TODAY'S EPISODE OF "DARK, CONCERNING THOUGHTS WITH ALVIN"
Heavy breathing, first form, hunger.
I love that I got a Babish ad on a Babish video
Best frame to end the video with. Nice.
hmm, what kind of glaze could you substitute for this if you don't/can't seem to get the ingredients for it?
Could also be the fried potato mochi from pokemon arceus
Unfortunately nicks and cuts happen in the kitchen. I'm glad it wasn't a bad cut. I do think I'll be making this recipe. Looks fantastic.
Tasted like a French fry without the sauce 😋 but everything together was freaking delicious 😋 had some jalapeño cheddar inside
i thoroughly enjoyed that haganezuka joke :3
Nice! Was kinda curious about this for a bit.
Would like to try this mochi, but we don't have potato starch where I'm living.
Wondering if corn starch or wheat starch works too. Thanks
This looks amazing!! ❤❤
Cheers for reminding me to get back to Demon Slayer! Loving the videos.
Definitely gonna make this
I don't know if this is in any anime, but since this is Alvin's channel now, could you make inarizushi? I haven't had it in 7 years and don't live in japan anymore.
Use a peeler which has the blades sticking out from the handle, not crossing it.
Can you make the perfect candy from the Jimmy Neutron episode “Krunch Time”?

You should do Beef Stroganoff from Symphogear.
It’s also like making czech potato dumplings!
I have sweet rice flour that's 9 mo past expiration date. I kept it in the refrigerator but wondering whether I can still eat it. Can I still eat it? and how long can I eat it?
Can we change the potato starch with tapioca?
Hi Alvin,
Please make Binkan Salaryman Sausage from Bludgeoning Angel DokuroChan. Thank you!
Will any sake do or does it need to be a specific kind meant for cooking? Also would other sweeter alcohols (like soju) work for this?
Could you also make this recipe with sweet potato?
Making this weekend now!
Hey, I wonder if you can do the Dragias Curry, Prima Guitarna Curry, and Bunker Strike Curey from Yu-Gi-Oh! SEVENS.
Hey Babish, can you make the honeycomb cakes from Tinkerbell?
Been seeing more Anime with Alvin than Binging with Babish lately.
and that's a complete and total shame tbh.
Making the ones without cheese today thank you
Alvin with a peeler with his blood versus the Upper Moon Four.
