You could have a whole separate channel just for Japanese cuisine

Okay, now I am hungry.😊

Soy sauce + Butter is the best sauce ever! You can have that with potatoes, corn, mochi, anything! I love that Japanese use the whole scallops including the skirt around the main part whereas the U.S. uses only the main part. The skirt part is the best when you can get the winter hotate, like the chef said. I wish I can buy the whole hotate as good as the ones from Hokkaido here in the U.S.! They just looked soooo yummy John!!

Soy sauce and butter rice is one of my favorite meals. It's simple yet so delicious.😊

Don't eat seafood but I'm tuning in for the Monster Scallop and whether Godzilla will show up to save the day!

I love scallops, great episode sir

Thank you 😊

I am so jealous. The scallops look so good.

John, you're Japan's ambassador, showing the wonderful and unique sides of this magnificent country. Focusing on aspects one may easily overlook. Hopefully encouraging people to venture out into the "true Japan". My husband and I love your channels. After this video I am now tempted to try scallops, which I never even considered...I couldn't help but also think of @ericsurf6 during this video, knowing how he feels about scallops. Getting the chance to try Hokkaido Hotate may actually convert him into a scallop connoisseur! Next collab, when?!

I wish I’d done this for the main channel! You got the scoop this time GO! but I’ll be back, GYOZA 🥟 and Hiroshima train video coming this month!

Scallops and muscles delish

Great video John!

Thanks again John. You always seem to find a way of bringing great content to us. Thanks

Gosh those looked drool-worthy! 😋 Always appreciative of masters of their craft. This chef was certainly a master of his! Learnt so much about the Hokkaido scallops just listening to him. I can tell Leo really loves the scallops!!! 😊

Thanks for alerting me in response to my pre-video Super Chat that there would be some questions in the chat. As you promised the playback was fun too even though other commitments kept me from watching live. Really enjoyed the two polls you offered and suggest to others to watch with the chat replay to learn the results.

I love hotate nigiri

Episodes like this really make me want to get back to Japan

John , I just had Scallops at a restaurant in San Diego , it was just 4 Scallops Grilled , $21. They were barely half the size of those Hokkaido Scallops .

Wow! Yes - these are the best of the best, they seem to put a lot of love into the craft of raising scallops in the sea. It was fun watching them squirt around too. They seem so happy. I hope k can make a longer documentary about it in the future for the other channel.

Oh my... Japanese scallops are prolly my most fav shellfish EVER!! They're soo big and flavorful... Very satisfying. I crave for them every now and then.. 🤤

Great!

Amazing country amazing food amazing culture amazing people ❤️

Love the seafood in Japan. Many of them are in huge sizes such as Scallops, Oysters and Crabs.

Agreed! I am a big fan of scallops! Those scallops looked amazing. Especially pan fried in butter sauce over risotto/peas or deep fried. Wish they were as big here in the US.

I lost track of you for awhile - Glad to see you are still going with this. Always a pleasure to view

LEO took a big-boy bite! It was so nice to see Kanae and Leo there with you, enjoying Hotate. Thank you, John, for the informative information about eating Hotate, and the various preparations.

Well, that's one curiosity finally satisfied ^_^ Thanks, John

Hahaha! I bet - that gets Leo & Kanae excited too, Amazon - Takyubin is here!

That is a radical fishery. Just raise the seedlings, release them and let the ocean do the rest

Hello!! As an expert in marine creatures I can say that the size of scallops depends on the species, perhaps the one from Japan is larger than the one from the United States. By the way, all the dishes looked very delicious, I would like to try them, here in Mexico we eat a lot of shellfishs but we add spicy sauces to them, it also taste really good.

I love scalops😊❤with herby butter, soysauce, eggwash them, tempura them, you can ground them too making scallop patties😊

I wouldn't dare eating them any way but FULLY COOKED UNLESS THEY ARE FRESH out of a LIVING SHELL lol! But you have got my craving scallops now LOL I love them wrapped in bacon in a 5-min marinade of soy sauce, garlic, and sesame oil but there are a million was to do them! I'm jealous that you got to try them so fresh! Fat chance of that here in New Jersey lol THANK YOU!!!

I thought i was watching this on the main channel😂

Delicious, but I really hate to imagine how much that costs...

In the chat John said it was about 3,200 yen for everything including some we didn't see him eat. Not bad! Maybe the ones he took home were separate though from that box that arrived from Hokkaido at the beginning of the video?

Very yummy

People only eat the muscle. But the rest of the scallop is actually quite good.

Hi John. Great video about scallops. They're one of my favorite type of seafood. I've never had them fresh to try them sashimi style but usually I'll have them grilled or fried. Hokkaido is at the top of my list of places to visit on my return visit to Japan. I'll definitely give this a try but will have to plan that around the time they're in season. Thank you so much for sharing this! 🤙

John pretending to be in awe of how cutting along the grain versus cutting against the grain of a protein, as if its such a profound culinary discovery 😂

Love large scallops sashimi style❤ But I can’t eat the guts like some people do when they are bbq’d . Also, don’t like them in gratin-what a waste.

I think it’s personal preference - the black sac I can’t eat, too bitter. The rest is chewy and the center is pure deliciousness! Goes great with Japanese sake and recently I like with carbonated water with lemon or lime squeezed in 😂 refreshing!

It's interesting how you don't see The Chef use the coral/roe of the Scallop. (maybe I missed it but) I am curious to know why he doesn't like to use that part?

I didn’t have a chance to actually go to Hokkaido which is a shame. I hope I get a chance in the future, for main channel, I’d need to be more thorough and get more shots of the industry. Not enough story but this was a fun episode for GO and something I would like to more here, simple edited videos.

@@onlyinjapanGO understood captain! More high quality content like this for OiJGo is never a bad thing. Highly appreciated! Thanks

Just wanted to know whether this video is a one off long form video (not livestream) on the OIJ GO channel or should we expect to see more long form videos on the OIJ GO channel (in the style of the main OIJ channel) in the future?

Can I please ask what the scallops in the restaurant cost John?

Too bad we don’t have ‘taste-o-vision’ yet 😢

the sea scallops you had at first, as sashimi, don't seem to be any bigger than what we get here in the States.... are you sure you're not thinking of the small ones called Bay Scallops? ... then again, I'm fairly certain we have ours imported and they're always frozen..... I know their are fresh scallops here off the coast of New Jersey but it's a big thing you see in many places... I mean it's New Jersey.. do you trust the waters around here?? lol

I grew up in New Jersey - they’re not remotely the same size. I’ve eaten all kinds of scallops around the world, still haven’t seen them bigger than here. I think they’re even bigger in the winter season. I remember getting 20 for ¥500 in Wakkanai at a BBQ outside by the fisherman. I left so full! It must have been more than 2kg of scallops grilled in the shell with a little soy sauce and butter. Really love the scallops here. Nothing wrong with the US ones but they are smaller and not as fresh, usually frozen.

Hot meal looks so delicious I wish I can come to the phone eat some

I only had Nova Scotia scalops,,not much flavor honestly.😢

Did the presenter mix up the channels again? :D This does not seem like go...

John I want to learn how to learn how to speak japanese?
