00:00This is Mr. Yoshihito Yamamoto and Mr. Shinobu Shinobu, the third generation of bamboo farmers, who have been doing this for 100 years.
00:07Please come in.
00:09Hello.
00:11Nice to meet you.
00:13Nice to meet you, too.
00:15Mr. Matsuoka, this is the bamboo we dug.
00:19Look at this.
00:21Do you see the color?
00:23It's not black, is it?
00:25It hasn't been exposed to sunlight yet.
00:27It's like a mother's revenge.
00:30It's like rice.
00:32I can't do it.
00:36It's not soft, and it doesn't come out.
00:39I used to eat something like this.
00:41I used to eat this much.
00:43That's right.
00:45Now that I think about it, that's bamboo.
00:47It's bamboo.
00:49We used to eat bamboo.
00:51I don't even eat pandas.
00:54Chikurin in that area doesn't taste good.
00:57It's hard.
00:59It's a hassle to climb a bamboo tree.
01:01It's a hassle.
01:03It's really hard.
01:05It's not like you're growing it naturally in Urayama.
01:08There's a beautiful Chikurin in Kyoto.
01:10What's that?
01:12If you look closely, it's blurry.
01:16I'm sorry.
01:18Where are you from?
01:20I'm from Shimoseki, Yamaguchi Prefecture.
01:22Yamaguchi Prefecture.
01:24Bamboo in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
01:26That's right.
01:28I'm finally talking.
01:30I'm nervous.
01:32It's okay.
01:34Please relax.
01:36It's okay.
01:38I came to Tokyo for the first time today.
01:40I've never been to Tokyo before.
01:42Is it your first time in your life?
01:44Excuse me, how old are you?
01:46I'm 46 years old.
01:4846 years old.
01:50You've been to Osaka, haven't you?
01:52I've been to Osaka.
01:54But I've only been there once on my day off.
01:58Wait a minute.
02:00It's like being raised by a blowfish.
02:04Machiko doesn't know.
02:06The world of domestic bamboo shoots.
02:10The proportion of domestic bamboo shoots is 12%.
02:12It's a little expensive compared to the water in foreign countries.
02:16It tastes completely different.
02:18I want you to eat domestic bamboo shoots once in the season.
02:22That's right.
02:24In the 1980s, the proportion of domestic bamboo shoots was more than 50%.
02:28After that, it decreased steadily.
02:30It's only 12% now.
02:34And...
02:36I'm asking if you've ever cooked raw bamboo shoots.
02:38No, I haven't.
02:40You haven't.
02:42I think it's a hassle.
02:44Peeling the skin and removing the scum.
02:48It's a hassle.
02:50And my children don't eat it.
02:54That's right.
02:56Most women in their 20s and 30s have never used raw bamboo shoots.
03:02I want to make a stop at a high-class restaurant where I want to leave bamboo shoots.
03:06There is a great farmer who cuts bamboo shoots.
03:10Mr. Yoshihito Yamamoto.
03:12It's 12%, 11%, and 9%.
03:167% is almost...
03:18It's 6%, 5%, 3%, and 1%.
03:20They are all elementary school students.
03:22It's amazing.
03:24It's like a bamboo shoot, but it's a half-eaten bamboo shoot.
03:26It's thanks to bamboo shoots.
03:28Stop answering.
03:30Let's start with the true ability of domestic bamboo shoots.
03:34It's delicious.
03:36It's completely different.
03:40The taste of fresh bamboo shoots is preserved.
03:44In addition, a great recipe for children to eat.
03:50I can't go back to normal bamboo shoots.
03:54I can't go back to normal bamboo shoots.
04:08Do you think that bamboo shoots will grow on their own if there is a bamboo forest?
04:14In fact, the way of cultivation of bamboo shoots is completely different from that of farmers like Mr. Yamamoto.
04:22First of all, let's eat the proud bamboo shoots caught in Mr. Yamamoto's forest.
04:28Matsuko eats the true ability of bamboo shoots and experiences it.
04:32It's delicious.
04:40Seaweed and bamboo shoots go well together.
04:42It's a combination of sea food and mountain food.
04:44It's delicious.
04:52Matsuko eats the true ability of bamboo shoots and experiences it.
05:02I like bamboo shoot rice the most.
05:08It's delicious.
05:18How is it?
05:20It's a bamboo shoot grown by my wife.
05:26It's very delicious.
05:30If you give me a little time, I think I can eat all of this.
05:34When you make delicious bamboo shoots, you don't have to season them.
05:38There are many ways to make it, but the most important thing is soy sauce and salt.
05:46If you make it simple, it will be delicious.
05:54Tempura is also delicious.
05:56I want you to eat the end of the bamboo shoot.
05:58The end of the bamboo shoot is especially delicious.
06:02The end of the bamboo shoot is delicious.
06:08What is the correct way to eat bamboo shoots?
06:16This bamboo shoot is also delicious, but I like the end of the bamboo shoot.
06:22I rarely eat this kind of bamboo shoot.
06:28It's delicious.
06:36Bamboo shoot rice is the best.
06:38What is this?
06:40What is bamboo shoot?
06:42What's wrong with you?
06:46What are you doing?
06:48I'm so happy.
06:56I'm nervous.
07:00I'm really happy.
07:08I'm having a hard time.
07:10I'm having a hard time.
07:16I'm sorry.
07:18How hard are you having a hard time?
07:20Are you okay?
07:24I'm so happy to be able to eat like this.
07:26I'm so happy to be able to eat like this.
07:32Farmers have a hard time.
07:36Farmers can easily eat.
07:40I'm the easiest to eat right now.
07:46Let's introduce our couple.
07:50I will introduce the profile of my wife.
07:52I will introduce how she became a farmer.
07:56My husband, YOSHIHITO,
07:58He is 19 years old.
08:00He lives in Nagatoshi, north of Shimoseki.
08:02There is a famous surfing spot called KAWASHIRI.
08:06He started surfing there.
08:08I went there twice a year.
08:10I go to Hawaii every year.
08:14I need money to go there.
08:16I want to go surfing.
08:18But I can't get a job.
08:20I found a bamboo shoot.
08:24Your grandfather used to be a bamboo shoot farmer.
08:28I've been helping him since I was a kid.
08:30I'm confident in digging bamboo shoots.
08:32That's the problem.
08:34My wife is not good.
08:40I'm not good at it.
08:46It's not good to fall in love with a man like me.
08:50I'm not trying to be a farmer.
08:54I'm trying to get along with others.
08:58I went to help him in the season of bamboo shoot.
09:00I said,
09:02I'm not good at it.
09:04I'm not good at it.
09:06He called his relatives.
09:08He said,
09:10I think you've met a good man.
09:12You should get married soon.
09:16It's your fault that I have to do so many bamboo shoots.
09:22I grew up a bamboo shoot.
09:24Here it is.
09:28The more you touch it,
09:30Takenoko is a good boy, isn't he?
09:32Yes, he is.
09:34He is honest.
09:36Good morning.
09:38Good morning.
09:40Nice to meet you.
09:42It's a nice house.
09:44It's been 190 years.
09:46It's been 190 years?
09:48Did you insulate it well?
09:50Well, some of it.
09:52Then you should have insulated it.
09:54When they walk about 5 minutes from their home,
09:57Here it is.
09:59It's a bamboo field.
10:01There are many bamboos in front of us.
10:04And there are more over there.
10:06We can see many bamboos.
10:08Yes, we can.
10:09Can you do it with two people?
10:10Yes, we can.
10:11It's not easy.
10:14He will show us around the bamboo forest.
10:17It's like this.
10:19It's beautiful.
10:21It's very beautiful.
10:23I think there are very few bamboos.
10:25That's right.
10:27There are very few bamboos.
10:29And he does it for a year.
10:32I have to cut it properly.
10:34Otherwise, the sun will be bad.
10:36He is planting straws.
10:38Straws are good for water.
10:40He likes mountains.
10:42And slowly, it will be a bamboo field.
10:44And he doesn't just plant straws in the bamboo forest.
10:49He is planting red soil.
10:52It's red soil.
10:54He is planting straws.
10:56You can't just plant straws.
10:58When you plant straws,
11:00the water will be warmer.
11:02It will be like a lid.
11:04How much do you need every year?
11:06Every year?
11:08About 10 tons of red soil.
11:10That much?
11:12Yes.
11:13About 20 tons.
11:15Wait a minute.
11:16Will there be no more red soil in Japan?
11:20In May,
11:22he digs a hole.
11:24He puts fertilizer in each hole.
11:30In autumn,
11:32he plants old bamboos.
11:34What is the effect?
11:36Bamboos are young.
11:38Bamboos are young.
11:40Bamboos are young.
11:42Bamboos are young.
11:44Bamboos are young.
11:46Bamboos are young.
11:48Bamboos are young.
11:50The new fertilizer
11:52gives the young bamboo
11:54new nutrients
11:56and adds flavor.
11:58By the way,
12:00the old bamboo is used
12:02as fertilizer.
12:04Mr. Shinobu came here
12:0614 years ago.
12:08When he looks back on his time,
12:10He is like a stranger.
12:12He is like,
12:14it's a harvest,
12:16it's just digging bamboo.
12:18But when I opened the lid, I saw that the mountains were beautiful all year round.
12:24And my husband started to make better and better things.
12:28He started to study more and more.
12:30He went to various places to study.
12:32He went to various places to study.
12:34He started to work more and more.
12:36He started to work more and more.
12:38He started to work more and more.
12:40He started to work more and more.
12:42He started to work more and more.
12:44I visually invited each kid.
12:46I took their bags,
12:48Veiled them and put a splinter sheet here.
12:50And gave them their beds.
12:52It is the like to they,
12:54nts.
12:56So it was packed back then.
13:03The four children,
13:05All of them are in their primary school years.
13:09Nice to meet you.
13:11Nice to meet you.
13:12Can you tell us your name?
13:13I'm so happy.
13:15Is that you, Koyuki-chan?
13:17You look like Ono Yoko.
13:19Well, it's just for fun.
13:21Just for fun?
13:23Well, it's really helpful.
13:26It does a little bit for me.
13:29Finally, the harvest.
13:31However, even if you look around, you can't see the bamboo shoots.
13:36As a bamboo shoot farmer, I dig before I go out.
13:39Oh, really?
13:40When a bamboo shoot is exposed to the sun,
13:43it starts to become a bamboo shoot, and its fortune increases.
13:46To tell you the truth, the ones that sprout are not very tasty.
13:50Oh, really?
13:52So, how do you find a bamboo shoot that sleeps in the soil?
13:57When a bamboo shoot grows in the soil,
14:00something that doesn't grow in the soil swells up,
14:03and the soil gets heated up.
14:05It swells up and cracks.
14:08So, I look for a bamboo shoot that doesn't swell up.
14:15Look at this from above.
14:18What Yoshihito-san found was this crack.
14:23It's difficult to tell the difference between a dry crack and a bamboo shoot crack.
14:28There it is.
14:30Look, there it is.
14:32A bamboo shoot crack
14:35It's pretty big at this time of year.
14:38I get excited all of a sudden.
14:42Wow, amazing.
14:44Wow, amazing.
14:45It's huge.
14:47This is the biggest one.
14:49It's not just this one.
14:55The small ones are also delicious.
14:59This is the crack from earlier.
15:02I get happy when I find a good one.
15:04That's right.
15:05It's so big.
15:07I'm so happy.
15:09I'm always so moved by the fact that I found a bamboo shoot that doesn't grow in the soil.
15:14I'm so happy.
15:16Let's compare a bamboo shoot grown in a well-maintained environment
15:20with a bamboo shoot grown in an abandoned forest.
15:24It's nostalgic.
15:25I can eat the bamboo shoot I used to eat when I was a kid.
15:29It's still early in the season, so there aren't any black ones.
15:32Both were harvested on the same day.
15:37A bamboo shoot was grown in a well-maintained forest.
15:42On the other hand, B bamboo shoot was grown in a well-maintained environment.
15:48Is there a difference in taste?
15:52Which one should I eat first?
15:55I think B bamboo shoot is better.
15:57If I eat a delicious one first, I'll leave a strange aftertaste.
16:01Is this olive?
16:03I love this.
16:04This is the first time I've ever eaten olive.
16:07Is this salt and pepper?
16:08Let's eat.
16:17This is delicious.
16:19It goes well with this.
16:21Can I eat this?
16:24I love wasabi soy sauce.
16:27Bamboo shoots are also delicious.
16:29Bamboo shoots are delicious with Sambaisu, vinegar miso, and mustard soy sauce.
16:46Do you have vinegar miso?
16:51How does it taste?
16:53It doesn't look delicious.
16:55It's still early in the season.
16:57Is that so?
16:59Let's eat.
17:02It's still early in the season, so it's not soft at all.
17:08That's right.
17:09This is not good.
17:13I can feel the bitterness.
17:15I can feel the bitterness at the end.
17:17In the old days, I was angry like a fool to shoot this.
17:23The tip of my tongue is starting to hurt.
17:29This is the most rotten part of our bamboo forest.
17:33I can't get my hands in there yet.
17:35Did you shoot this at Mr. YAMAMOTO?
17:37That's right.
17:38How is it so different?
17:40The problem is that the bamboo shoots are not delicious.
17:46This is a problem that is related to the rotten bamboo forest.
17:50Recently, the problem of abandoned bamboo forests has become a problem nationwide.
17:56The number of bamboo shoots grown there is increasing.
18:01The number of bamboo shoots farmers like Mr. YAMAMOTO is decreasing.
18:07The quality of the bamboo shoots is not good.
18:10The number of bamboo shoots farmers is not profitable.
18:14The number of bamboo shoots farmers is declining.
18:16The number of bamboo shoots farmers is declining.
18:18This negative spiral has been going on for a long time.
18:21In the old days, when Japanese people built houses using Japanese trees, they used to clean the mountains to get wood.
18:33But now they have abandoned it.
18:35Because this is a mountainous country.
18:38That's right.
18:39In the old days, everyone lived with the mountains.
18:42Return to the mountains, everyone.
18:44Japanese people again.
18:57Finally, the best season of bamboo shoots has arrived.
19:01When choosing bamboo shoots at supermarkets and roadside stations, we will explain the points to determine the freshness of the bamboo shoots.
19:08The way to choose bamboo shoots is important.
19:11There are some people who think it's better to buy big bamboo shoots.
19:16Older people love big bamboo shoots.
19:18Older people say that bamboo shoots are good because they are crunchy.
19:22It's delicious because it's a little bitter.
19:24The way to choose bamboo shoots is important.
19:26As time goes by, the skin of the bamboo shoot loses its gloss and becomes dull.
19:31If you take out the yellow part of the bamboo shoot, it will turn green.
19:37Is that so?
19:38Yes.
19:39Bamboo shoots are faster than fish.
19:42Is that so?
19:44The freshness of the bamboo shoots decreases.
19:46In the old days, people used to leave bamboo shoots at home.
19:49That's not good.
19:50That's not good.
19:51It's getting worse and worse.
19:53If you want to keep the freshness, you can put it in the refrigerator.
19:56People often say that they soak the bamboo shoots in the refrigerator.
20:02Is it better to soak the bamboo shoots in water?
20:06After boiling, soak it in water and put it in the refrigerator for about 10 days.
20:13You can soak it in water.
20:15You can replace it with water every day.
20:17The taste of the bamboo shoots will be less.
20:20The taste of the bamboo shoots will be less.
20:22Is it better to soak the bamboo shoots in water and put it in the refrigerator for a while?
20:26That's right.
20:27Is it better to soak the bamboo shoots in water?
20:29That's right.
20:30The speed of soaking the bamboo shoots is faster.
20:32If you don't need to boil the bamboo shoots, you can put it in a container and put it in the refrigerator.
20:39That's right.
20:40You don't have to boil the bamboo shoots.
20:43You can use it as a tempura.
20:45You can use it as a sauce.
20:47It's like meat and potato croquette.
20:50If it's bamboo shoot rice, it would be delicious to add something similar.
20:55You can make it sweet.
20:57You can make it sweet.
21:01In fact, many people have never bought raw bamboo shoots and cooked them.
21:0992% of people in their 20s.
21:1273% of people in their 30s.
21:15It seems that there is an image that raw bamboo shoots are difficult to cook.
21:20I heard the reason why people don't buy raw bamboo shoots.
21:25Here it is.
21:271. It's a hassle to remove the scum.
21:292. It's a hassle to cook.
21:313. Children don't eat it.
21:33Speaking of bamboo shoot dishes, there are many dishes that the elderly like, such as Chikuzen and Wakataki.
21:41Here it is.
21:44I will introduce the recipe of raw bamboo shoots that children eat.
21:49I think I ate it at a Japanese restaurant.
21:55It was very delicious.
21:57I was surprised that it was not tempura.
22:00You shouldn't have said that.
22:02I said it first.
22:04I made it again.
22:07I made it again.
22:09I made it again.
22:12I made it again.
22:145th place in the list of bamboo shoot dishes that children eat.
22:18Bamboo shoot and Asari pasta.
22:24Heat olive oil and garlic.
22:28Asari.
22:30I just hope it's not the first place.
22:33Steam it.
22:35I'm worried.
22:37When the mouth of the bamboo shoot opens,
22:41add asparagus, cabbage, and boiled bamboo shoots.
22:45Stir-fry until soft.
22:49Finally, add boiled pasta.
22:52It's done.
22:54You raised a frying pan.
22:58It was amazing how you raised a frying pan.
23:03Bamboo shoot and Asari pasta.
23:06How does it taste?
23:09Bamboo shoot and Asari are delicious.
23:14Asari and bamboo shoot have a good texture.
23:17It's especially delicious.
23:20Girls are smart.
23:23Bamboo shoot and raw ham gratin.
23:29You don't need white sauce for gratin.
23:34Put sliced bamboo shoot, tomato, and raw ham on top.
23:41Add cheese for pizza.
23:43Then toast it for 10 minutes.
23:48You don't need white sauce for gratin.

25:40Let's eat.
25:45Sweet and spicy pork and crunchy bamboo shoot are popular with children.
25:51Do you eat this often?
25:53No.

26:02Wait a minute.
26:05It's delicious because it's wrapped.
26:09Everything looks delicious.
26:11Curry is not minced.
