@GreedoUT And you can make a comment without a brain... It's not awesome but it shows how much you appreciate those who take the time to teach a skill that you've never seen but yet... feel the need to show the level of your intelligence. You probably feel "awesome" about it, and you're probably american... Grow up !
Nah, that wasn't what I was trying to say XD I just found it enlightening and funny when you pronounced "zigzag" as "Zigazaga". I know nothing about cooking,, I'm still a youngster after all, so I'm sure everything you did in this video was correct :33
+Kerem KORUR -- Actually, a yanagi IS special. Unlike western knives, most Japanese knives are asymmetrical, being flat on one side and beveled on the other. Although one can make do with a western slicing knife (or even a chef's knife), a yanagi will make certain tasks easier.
+Dia Sbaih "where the hell am i going to get a yanagi knife" Amazon, Williams-Sonoma, Bed Bath & Beyond, Ebay, Knife Merchant, Chefknivestogo... Here's a nice one: korin.com/Masamoto-Ao-ko-Honyaki-Kiriba-Yanagiba?sc=27&category=8549616. You can even select left- or right-handed. And it's only $3,290.00. ;-)
he has master telepathic communication notice mouth doesnt move while speaking and also "metal sticks" mix that wwith how fast he made the cucumber his bitch i have confirmed ninja master lets out an ancient chinese secret. He thinks farter not smarter good video and now i should never do this but i do know how hahaha
I was initially put off when the title screen of the video had "professional" spelled incorrectly, but then I was blown away that this gentleman was speaking to me without moving his lips... Almost as if he was in my head :) But seriously, that is a really impressive technique. Thank you for sharing this video.
I am reminded of Bruce Vilanch when I watch this, and I'm obviously not alone. You've got to eat the whole thing. peel, everything. Get the good inside. It's often on the outside.
Love this method and presentation, however, it seems you'll need to find pretty 'straight' (not curved) cucumbers. I suppose the long Asian cucumbers might be preferable? Those can also be curved, but perhaps more flexible such that, with enough pressure, u can straighten them out when cutting.
tried this a number of times - he makes it look easier than it is. Maybe what I'm using for "knife rails" aren't don't work as well or his knife is really good.
You need a finely polished edge to reduce the zigzag motion, I sharpen my knife on a 1000 stone and it only becomes polished enough after peeling 3kilos of cucumber.
He need to be on those British got talent show. He remind me of the little girl that sang with the puppet without opening her mouth. He get the golden buzzer. But this is something new to cut cucumbers. Nice video though at least he thinking of how to connect with the English speaking culture. Thank for that.
Okay listen, i dont know who you are or what you do for a living. But all you need to know is that i fully support and love you and hope you achieve your dreams. I love you. - a random duck
I started off this video thinking 'how the hell did I get to this part of youtube' and ended it thinking 'Woo - let's watch more cucumber peeling videos!'
