I’m watching this video at 2am, about to go to sleep, already in my bed, but and after your “sounds” of deliciousness I must go to find something in my kitchen… 🤤🙏🏻
I really love how systematic you are! Watching you cook is really fun and enjoyable. The Soba noodles with tempura looks so tasty 😋, I'm really happy I got a cooking sensei like you. You're the best cook I've ever seen! Ganbarimasu and God bless 🙏❤️
thanx so much for such nice compliments!! its so warming to hear that I am making people happy with my videos! (especially since they do take a looooot of time to produce, lol)
glad to help! unfortunately, it is not easy to find 100% buckwheat soba noodle outside of Japan. but I am planning to make a video, where you can make it from scratch with 100% buckwheat, so pls wait for it! but for the time being, you can try it with this: th-cam.com/video/_xV-vEiCXXg/w-d-xo.html
I eat zaru soba often. I'm going to try your recipe for the mentsu. I will often mix wasabi in the mentsu along with the negi. I save the soba mizu and when the soba has been eaten, I pour the mizu into the soba cup and drink the remaining mentsu. My Kaku obi is very similar to the one you're wearing. The kimono that you wear in your vids look pretty nice. The 青色 is very pleasing. Thank you for all the effort you put into your videos. The production is excellent as well as the content. Mata ne
I LOVE soba noodles! I've had them like soup and cold with a dressing. After watching so many of your videos, I think the dressing may have been a combination of mirin and soy sauce as it was like a light soy but was sweet? I had it that way at a sushi restaurant and it was my first time having them cold, and I loved it that way too! Thank you for sharing this recipe. I've never seen them eaten with tempura, so it was educational, a different way of having soba noodles. :)
Watch your video, I'd think cooking for oneself could be fun~but when I think of how it is when I cook for myself every day, it's not as fun as how you showed in your video. Is there a trick?
The information about soba noodles and the percentages of wheat flour added was very, very helpful. And the part about adding cocoa to make them "look like soba" was a bit frightening! I am glad I know what to look for now, and so may try soba noodles at home.
yes, I was also very surprised to see such "soba" with cocoa powder in the ingredients!! if we as consumers become well informed, then such products will disappear. so I am glad to help that movement! thanx for your comment!!
All of the soba noodles at the market had wheat in them, unfortunately for me, as you mentioned. I bought some buckwheat flour to make my own. I don't care if they break! Is there anything aside from water that I need? I don't need to impress anyone else!
I just want to ask. Are you really a chef? or just a love cooking. My favorite dish with noodles is ramen especially during winter. But this one is definitely a must try. Thank for this.❤️
Thank you for your wonderful recipes!😊 Your slurp just make my mouth water; i am not asian but i think slurping is the right way to enjoy food❤️❤️❤️😋😋😋😋
Hi Taiji. Thank you so much for your hard work in putting these videos together. I have watched a lot of them and so far, they are excellent. It’d be nice to learn a bit about you. It seems that you are a Japanese National living in Germany. Are you there for work, school … temporary, permanent? How did you become so proficient in English. Have you lived in the US in the past? Inquiring minds want to know.
thanx for your nice comment! hahaha, so many questions! i grew up in Japan, went to high school and college in the US then worked in Japan for a while, came to Germany for my masters and stayed for work. I work as a math teacher in German a high school.
@@taijiskitchen thanks for your quick reply. Keep up the good work. I’m slowly making it through every one of your videos. Although your cooking videos are truly wonderful, I really appreciated your thoughtful and informative videos on Japanese geography, food, customs/manners, your family’s home in Nagoya, everyday life in Japan, etc. They look like a lot of work to produce and you don’t skip a beat. Thanks again. I’m going to share your channel to a Japanese American FB group I belong to.
This is definitely going into my "favourite recipe" folder! It looks amazing, and I love tempura mushroom and shrimp/prawn. Thank you!! On the subject of deveining shrimp, I have seen a number of people doing a nifty trick using a toothpick to devein them, do you know how to do this? if so, could you show us? On a side note, I am a "best for last person", too - my mom, tho, used to be before she went to boarding school. There, if you try saving the best for last - before you knew it, her fellow diners were like the seagulls in "Finding Nemo"..."Mine! Mine! Mine!" and all her "best for last" savings were gone!
Please tell me what kind of peppers were those you used? This looks amazing. Such simple food but so decadent and soothing to the soul 🥰thank you for sharing with us. And btw if I’d slurped the way you did my mom would’ve come apart lol. I believe it’s a compliment if you do that in certain cultures though!! Sounds like you enjoyed it🥰
i am using a kind of peppers called "Shishito peppers" originally japanese, but nowadays they can be found in many countries outside as well. as you say, it is a compliment to the chef, if you slurp, but of course even if you didn't, doesn't mean that it didn't taste good, no worries.
Looks so delicious. Even if I don't like mushrooms and seafood I'm so tempted to just try it. Honestly the first thing that stinged my eyes was the German flour, baking powder and cooking oil. Immediately made me grin. Since I discovered your channel my interest in cooking more japanese dishes increased significantly. Thanks for making those videos:-)
good news, seafood and mushrooms are not the must have, but you can make pretty much any veggies as tempura to go with soba noodle!! so glad to hear that you like my recipes!!
@@katied8238 We don't have Amazon in our country though. But I was glad to see from a local shopping app that the Dashi powder is available. Can't wait to start preparing some Japanese dishes! One of my favourites is the Katsudon. 😋😍😋😍

Buckwheat noodle was the nicest thing I ate in Japan. So simple and delicious.
Taiji san, your videos are awesome . I really love Japanese cooking
Love your recipes! Thank you!
It looks so easy when you do it. I'm always hungry when I see this good food. 👍

If you have a tamagoyaki pan, maybe you could do a video on that.... Olso can you make homemade japanese mayo (with dashi or MSG) please? :)
oh, tamagoyaki pan, will give it a thought, thanx!
home made mayo?? never thought of that. will see what I can do.

Ω! That was supernatural😋👀, i'am ready to make it,my favorite japanese plate as beginner, perfection!
glad you like the video!! thanx for your comment!
I'm so glad I found your channel 😊
Were the noodles cold?
yes, I made it cold with running water.
Looks so delicious. Even if I don't like mushrooms and seafood I'm so tempted to just try it.
Honestly the first thing that stinged my eyes was the German flour, baking powder and cooking oil. Immediately made me grin.

good news, seafood and mushrooms are not the must have, but you can make pretty much any veggies as tempura to go with soba noodle!!
so glad to hear that you like my recipes!!
@@taijiskitchen thank you for that advice. I appreciate it.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👍good choice…..I must do it today…..thank you
thank You for your comment!! glad to help!
Really love to try this. One of the challenges is to find the right ingredients, especially the Dashi powder. And the high quality soba noodles.
yes, thats the challenge. but in most places they can easily be found online!!
I got the dashi powder from Amazon.
@@katied8238 We don't have Amazon in our country though. But I was glad to see from a local shopping app that the Dashi powder is available. Can't wait to start preparing some Japanese dishes! One of my favourites is the Katsudon. 😋😍😋😍
I always had a desire to eat veg soba noodles ! It would be grateful of you to give advise for veg soba noodles too? ❤😋😋
well, soba noddle it self is strictly vegan. and depending on what you make with Tempura, then you can easily make this vegetarian Tempura Soba!!
@@taijiskitchen well that's really great ! Arigatou for this useful advise..!🤗
Looks yummy 😋
@Taiji's kitchen Can this batter be used to make Korean pancakes and what would you add?
you mean Buchimgae? for sure, but you need to add more flour.
any veggies will work, carrot, zucchini, cabbage, sprouts, scallion, eggplant etc.
Lots of love from India 😊🥰
