[Japanese food culture-Ishikawa edition]
Introducing local food, culture, traditional crafts, etc. around Japan.
From spring to summer of 2009, I visited Ishikawa prefecture.
How do the Japanese process 1kg of gold bar into something edible?
The city of Kanazawa in Ishikawa Prefecture has inherited traditional techniques for processing gold, and 1 kg of gold bar is eventually turned into gold leaf as thin as about 1 / 10,000mm.In fact, 98 percent of Japan's gold leaf production is made in this city, and the world-famous Kinkakuji Temple in Kyoto is also made with gold leaf from Kanazawa City. I visited the prestigious company HAKUICHI to shoot the processing of 1kg gold bar into edible gold leaf.
* The edible gold leaf in this movie is harmless even if it enters the body.
