The Number Eight - 8

- quote
The Lucky Number Eight
Eight (八 hachi, ya) is also considered a lucky number in Japanese culture, but the reason is different from that in Chinese culture. Eight gives an idea of growing prosperous, because the letter (八) broadens gradually.

The Japanese thought eight (や ya) as a holy number in the ancient times. The reason is less well understood, but it is thought that it is related to the fact they used eight to express large numbers vaguely such as manyfold (やえはたえ Yae Hatae) (literally, eightfold and twentyfold), many clouds (やくも Yakumo) (literally, eight clouds), millions and millions of Gods (やおよろずのかみ Yaoyorozu no Kami) (literally, eight millions of Gods), etc.

It is also guessed that the ancient Japanese gave importance to pairs, so some researchers guess twice as four (よ yo), which is also guessed to be a holy number in those times because it indicates the world (north, south, east, and west) might be considered a very holy number.

Assorted steamed foods for celebration.
Eight ingredients are steamed and served in each bowl in this dish.



The Japanese people consider the number eight as a lucky number, as the Kanji character for "eight" (八) signifies a spreading fortune i.e. bright future.
The dish is an important item in a celebratory meal, a dish which is typical of the Japanese people who wish for good fortune in their meals.

Yutori Meshi　湯取り飯　 (boiled rice)
This dish was used as combat ration in ancient times. White rice is made into a ball, then meat mixed with miso paste is put inside. The ball is fried in oil and brought to the battlefield as a preserved food.

Boiling water is poured over the ball for eating. This hot meal was preferred in the winter. The same dish was eaten by all ranks of samurai from generals to foot soldiers ("Ashigaru" in Japanese) to pray for victory in battle

Jomon Cooking

- quote
The Jōmon period (縄文時代 Jōmon jidai)
is the time in Prehistoric Japan from about 12,000 BC and in some cases cited as early as 14,500 BC to about 300 BC, when Japan was inhabited by a hunter-gatherer culture which reached a considerable degree of sedentism and cultural complexity.

. . .Within the archipelago the vegetation was transformed by the end of the Ice Age. In southwestern Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu, broadleaf evergreen trees dominated the forests, whereas broadleaf deciduous trees and conifers were common in north-eastern Honshu and southern Hokkaido. Many native tree species, such as beeches, buckeyes, chestnuts, and oaks produced edible nuts and acorns. These provided abundant sources of food for humans and animals.

In the northeast, the plentiful marine life carried south by the Oyashio current, especially salmon, was an additional major source of food. Settlements along both the Sea of Japan and the Pacific Ocean subsisted on immense amounts of shellfish, leaving distinctive middens (mounds of discarded shells and other refuse) that are now prized sources of information for archeologists.
Other sources of food meriting special mention include deer, wild boar, yam-like tubers and other wild plants, and freshwater fish.



... The earliest vessels were mostly smallish round-bottomed bowls 10–50 cm high that are assumed to have been used for boiling food, and perhaps storing it beforehand.

Jomon cuisine: What went into the Jomon pots?
Jomon people who lived on the coasts liked hearty seafood stews, made up of various fish, clams and other shellfish catches of the day. The ingredients would have varied with the seasons. The food was cooked in large conical or rounded pots with tapered or pointy bottoms that sat well in the soil and ash of the bonfire or hearth.

. . . Egoma oil may have been used to coat or flavor the cookies. Shiso beefsteak herb (Perilla frutescens) was used to season and garnish raw fish dishes.

Many of the pit houses were equipped with a firepit with a smoke tunnel that may have been used to smoke meat.

nanchatte raamen なんちゃってラーメン sweet "noodle soup"

- quote
A confectionery store in suburban Saitama is generating a buzz thanks to its uniquely deceiving assortment of sweets.

One of them is the “Nanchatte ramen,” which can translate roughly as “fake ramen noodle.” The name sounds like a Chinese dish, but in reality it’s a cake — that looks exactly like ramen.

“I wanted to create sweets more amusing and with more impact for customers,” explained Hiromichi Iino, president of the Japanese and Western confectionery store Baigetsudo in Honjo, Saitama Prefecture.

The store was founded in 1897 and sells traditional Japanese confectionery, including “monaka,” a treat with adzuki bean jam filling sandwiched between two wafers.
...
For the finishing touch, several items made from “nerikiri” bean paste are placed on the surface of the “broth” to substitute for common ramen toppings, including “char siu” pork and “menma” lactate-fermented bamboo shoots, while pistachios stand in for green onions, Iino said.

The hard part about creating this dish was finding an appropriate combination of ingredients to ensure it tasted good, Iino said.

Namie evacuees bag food trophy

NAGOYA – Fried noodles served up by nuclear evacuees of the town of Namie, Fukushima Prefecture, won first prize in this year’s low-price popular food contest B-1 Grand Prix held in the city of Toyokawa, Aichi Prefecture, over the weekend.

The Namie team, whose members had to flee their town at the March 2011 start of the meltdown crisis at Tokyo Electric Power Co.’s Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant, served Namie “yakisoba” fried noodles in the contest, the eighth to be held so far.
It was the first time for Namie residents to win the competition, although the group has taken part in the event three times before.

Second prize went to a group representing the city of Towada in Aomori Prefecture. The group, which served Towada “barayaki” — beef flanks grilled on a hot plate with onions seasoned with a spicy-sweet soy-based sauce — is comprised of volunteers and was established in 2008 to help revitalize the city.

Third prize, meanwhile, went to a group from the city of Katsuura in Chiba Prefecture that served “tan tan men” spicy Chinese-style boiled noodles.

“Mamebu-jiru” soup was a local specialty offered by people from Kuji, in Iwate Prefecture.
The offering enabled the city, badly damaged by the March 11, 201 tsunami, to place fifth.

Namie yakisoba owes its flavor to the thick pan-fried noodles resembling “udon,” a type of thick wheat noodle, served with pork and bean sprouts doused in Worcestershire sauce.

“Everyone, what happens to Fukushima is not always bad,” said Sadayuki Yashima, giving cheer to people in Fukushima, while the 45-year-old leader of the group from Namie received the chopstick-shaped trophy.

A record number of 64 groups participated in this year’s contest.

B-1 Grand Prix is "selling each town" instead of only providing foods.
The exhibitors is not the restaurant cooks, but they are the groups developing the some projects at each town. Members of groups will not only provide some local foods but also be walking with each original character, based on their historic, playing some instrument music and playing a part.

Deer a pest said best served as local delicacy
To reduce the damage done to the environment by birds and other animals, major security company Alsok began a monitoring service this summer in which people helping hunters are notified by email when something lands in their traps.
Certified hunters have been setting traps to catch boar, deer and other pesky animals and then selling the trapped animals, but checking the traps is usually done by local residents.
Securing such manpower is not easy in mountainous areas, where young people are scarce.

Alsok began selling a monitoring device Aug. 1 that sends an email to nearby residents when an animal is ensnared.
“We thought the sensor technology we developed in our security business would be useful for vermin control,” Kiichi Fukuda of Alsok said.

. . . Wild boar is considered a delicacy and the meat is often sold to high-class restaurants.
Not so with venison, however. Only 20 to 30 percent of deer meat makes it to human dinner tables, according to estimates.

. . . Hideharu Ishizaki, who operates the Ezo Shi Cafe in the Sangenjaya district in Setagaya Ward, Tokyo, said deer from Hokkaido have more meat than their Honshu counterparts.
Some 10 to 15 kg of meat can be utilized for food from a Honshu deer, whereas the typical Hokkaido deer yields 25 to 40 kg. This makes the meat of Hokkaido deer, which can regularly be found in supermarkets across the prefecture, about ¥1,000 cheaper per kilogram.

. . . Based in Tanba, Hyogo Prefecture, Tanba Hime Momiji processes and sells deer meat. President Masao Yanagawase . . . Masahito Yamazaki, director of Mitaya Sohonke, which processes and sells high-quality meat, including ham and sausage, joined Yanagawase and Maekawa in their mission to promote venison . . . In addition, Maekawa founded EG Cycle, which makes and sells dog food containing venison.

. . . Advance Co., which operates a chain of restaurants in Nagahama, Shiga Prefecture, began offering deer curry for ¥880, more expensive than regular curry, in May 2010.
Advance is a franchisee of curry restaurant chain CoCo Ichibanya.

daizuko - soybean flour

[ . BACK to WORLDKIGO TOP . ]
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

daizuko 大豆粉 soybean flour, soy flour

- quote
The beans can be processed in a variety of ways. Common forms of soy (or soya) include soy meal, soy flour, soy milk, tofu, textured vegetable protein (TVP, which is made into a wide variety of vegetarian foods, some of them intended to imitate meat), tempeh, soy lecithin and soybean oil.
Soybeans are also the primary ingredient involved in the production of soy sauce (shoyu).

Soy flour refers to soybeans ground finely enough to pass through a 100-mesh or smaller screen where special care was taken during desolventizing (not toasted) to minimize denaturation of the protein to retain a high protein dispersibility index, for uses such as food extrusion of textured vegetable protein. It is the starting material for production of soy concentrate and soy protein isolate.

Soy flour is made by roasting the soybean, removing the coat, and grinding into a flour. Soy flour is manufactured with different fat levels.

Defatted soy flour is obtained from solvent extracted flakes, and contains less than 1% oil.
"Natural or full-fat soy flour is made from unextracted, dehulled beans, and contains about 18% to 20% oil." Its high oil content requires the use of a specialized Alpine Fine Impact Mill to grind rather than the usual hammer mill. Full-fat soy flour has a lower protein concentration then defatted flour.
Low-fat soy flour is made by adding some oil back into defatted soy flour. Fat levels range from 4.5% to 9%.
Soy lecithin can be added (up to 15%) to soy flour to make lecithinated soy flour. It increases dispersibility and gives it emulsifying properties.
Soy flour has 50% protein and 5% fiber. It has higher levels of protein, thiamine, riboflavin, phosphorus, calcium, and iron than wheat flour. It does not contain gluten. As a result, yeast-raised breads made with soy flour are dense in texture. Among many uses, soy flour thickens sauces, prevents staling in baked food, and reduces oil absorption during frying. Baking food with soy flour gives it tenderness, moistness, a rich color, and a fine texture.
Soy grits are similar to soy flour except the soybeans have been toasted and cracked into coarse pieces.
Kinako is a soy flour used in Japanese cuisine.

Japanese mushroom commercial with erotic overtones nears 3 million hits on YouTube

In Japan, Hokto is to mushrooms what Chiquita is to bananas: a household name that people know but aren’t overly excited by – until now!

The mushroom growers have been releasing an increasingly sexy line of commercials that seem to get pulled from the airwaves soon after debuting. The latest one, titled “Splendid Mushroom Kinkatsu,” depicts a love affair between actors Jun Kaname in the role of the spirit of mushrooms and Sawa Suzuki as the middle-aged woman he continuously haunts and seductively whispers about mushrooms to. As far as mushrooms go, this is pretty hot.
