TRIBAL PEOPLE REALLY GOING HAM ON JAPANESE SNACKS
About this video
In this Tribal People Try episode it's japanese food. The tribe look it over, ask the questions anyone would, and then taste it and give the honest answer.
What is japanese food?
Japanese food beyond sushi: ramen in real broth, tempura, katsu curry, mochi, matcha, wagyu, onigiri, Japanese Kit Kat flavours. Clean, precise and mild, with soy, dashi and seaweed as the backbone.
What to watch for
Tempura is pakora's elegant cousin and needs no help. Mochi's chewy, sticky rice-dough texture is the texture people talk about most. Wagyu's richness is admired and then declared too fatty for a whole meal.
The comparison they always make
Pakora, rice and tea are all here, so Japanese food has footholds. Seaweed and raw fish are the two things with no village equivalent at all.
