A dinner with fresh seafood dishes [Uogama Nihonbashi Yokoyamacho Store]

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] June 29, 2018 18:00

Last year, the "Uogama Nihonbashi Yokoyamacho Store" introduced the shop on the 3rd anniversary of its opening.

It is a shop where you can always eat fresh seafood dishes and satisfy both lunch and night dinner.

This time, 4 people bothered me.

A wonderful exchange that "Ripulinto Chuo" comes to Arima Kindergarten and Sakamoto Elementary School to read picture books has been ongoing for 13 years.‼

[Sakura is good] June 26, 2018 14:00

Senior story-telling volunteer "Ripulinto Chuo-ku" started in 2004. Ripurinto (REPRINTS) means "reprinting", and aims to reprint the life of the senior generation, just like the reprint of a masterpiece picture book. Independence from the support of the Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Health and Longevity Medical Center, this year marks the 11th year of independence, with 40 members, an average age of 72, and an activity facility 16. Based on the philosophy of wanting to be involved in generation, social contribution, and community exchange as a senior, he is working to deliver high-quality picture books to children. .

 

This is a story-telling at Arima Kindergarten. It is the state of February 14, 2018, the last day of activities from June to February of 2017. At Arima Kindergarten, Ripurin and members will read stories for the same kindergarten for three years. The children are looking forward to playing with hands and magic in front of the picture book.

DSC_0126.jpgDSC_0132.jpgDSC_0139.jpg

The older group is an elementary school student soon, but there is a three-year connection. On this day, younger children, middle-aged children, and older children were presented with a mini picture book with the name of the picture book they read for one year by Ripurin and members. Such a wonderful present will be a great treasure for children!

On the last day, parents of older children gave thanks to Ripurin for three years. Ryuishi and Arima Kindergarten have had wonderful exchanges for 13 years, but this is a sign of such bonds.

DSC_0410.jpgDSC_0413.jpgDSC_0414.jpg

I visited the regular meeting Nihonbashi Social Education Center on March 20, 2018. It seems that it is held once a month.

They always do "mouth exercises" at the beginning of the meeting.

"Aeiueo Ao blue sea return is red sunset sky."

"Kaito Chrysanthemum Flower on the carp fence in the Kakekikukeko Kako Pond"

"Sasessessesso The Forest of Cedica cedar branches that sing wildly"

"Tatatotatotatotantten The Taiko Drum Don"

"There are puppies and kittens in the garden of Naneninenonano."

"The sail of the Hahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhwhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh was much white than the hawhhhhhwhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

"It's already autumn to grow wonderfully with beans and wheat,"

"Everyone's night on the snow, everyone is smiling,"

"Larelyllerollerrelyllerrellergiculacanariya blue basket"

"Woeweowao laughing face Wahaufueheowahahahahaha"

Everyone with Ripurin utters a voice from their stomach, and the humorous rhythm of playing with words resonates lightly in the room.

Yoshinori Fujiwara, Director of the Social Participation and Community Health Research Team, Tokyo Institute of Health and Longevity Medical Research Institute, said, "Recent research has shown that in recent research, in a good environment with social capital, the health and well-being of individual members is returned to happiness. The success equation (social capital) of "contribution to children cheerfully" + "reading story" + "teamwork / friendship" + "connection with NPO Ripurin and networks, government offices, Japan National Council of Social Welfare and research institutes" Isn't it in "Chuo-ku"? ", "The 10th anniversary commemorative magazine, Rikurin-"

At Sakamoto Elementary School, which reads once a week on Friday, on June 15, 2018, we interviewed "Ripulinto Chuo-ku". . There was a thank-you picture letter from Ripurin to the invitation to lunch on the wall. We met at 8:00 in the morning, first had a meeting in the library, did "mouth exercises", and then headed to each class.

IMG_20180615_075345.jpgIMG_20180615_081002.jpgIMG_20180615_081339.jpg

During the morning staff morning meeting, children are waiting for quiet and quiet in a classroom without teachers. When it's time, enter the classroom and "self-introduction", "write the name of the picture book on the blackboard", "talk about introduction before reading the picture book", "read the picture book", "talk after reading the picture book" I felt the 13-year ring in the series of movements and familiarity.

We spoke with Principal Masaru Ogawa, Sakamoto Elementary School in Chuo Ward. "I am convinced that reading childhood will surely stimulate children's curiosity, enhance their imagination, and enrich their hearts. I am very grateful and happy to be able to experience it every week on a daily basis. I am grateful that the children have created a foundation that allows them to live a rich life with books as friends for their lifetime. "I was very impressed that the 13-year accumulation was alive. "

IMG_20180615_082638.jpgIMG_20180615_082945.jpgIMG_20180615_083130.jpg

The child sits on the floor and is drawn into the picture book so that the picture book can be easily seen. The calm voice of Ripurin seems to have penetrated the child's heart. I returned to the library and asked the teacher in charge of the book. After this, Ripurin said that a today's reflection meeting will be held at Nihonbashi Social Education Center. From selecting a picture book that matches the grade, how to read a picture book, how to take a gap, etc. I was deeply moved by the fact that I was deepening my training.

IMG_20180615_083236.jpgIMG_20180615_083307.jpgIMG_20180615_084709.jpg

June 20, 2018 is the first day of reading a picture book with Arima Kindergarten for the first time this year. As a start of 2018, wonderful reading time from today to February will be nurtured.‼

IMG_20180620_105317.jpgIMG_20180620_105122.jpgIMG_20180620_110816.jpg

We spoke with Emi Minowa, director of Arima Kindergarten, Chuo Ward. "The opportunity to interact with grandpas and grandpas living in the community through picture books is a good time for children. The viewpoint of choosing picture books is different from the teachers in charge, so the range is wide, and I am grateful that children have the opportunity to meet various picture books. "It has been transmitted.

"Ningyocho Saketei Kiku House Prosperity" Part 2-1-Ningyocho Kikuya-

[rosemary sea] June 18, 2018 18:00

This is the rosemary sea, which covers "gifts and enjoy yourself" as an Auslease.

DSC03368a.jpg

Kikuya Ningyocho is a stylish Japanese restaurant nestled on a path that leads from Ogannonji Temple in Nihonbashi Ningyocho to Nihonbashi Elementary School.

 

Click here for the first part of the long interview "Ningyocho Saketei Kiku House Prosperity"

⇒  /archive/2018/06/post-5346.htm

DSC03332a.jpg

This is the second part.

This is a long interview with the landlady, Kie Shiga, this time.

Then...

DSC03341a.jpg・・・ Did you shoot movies and TV dramas in this room?

In various rooms, I did this here, but it was when I was a "newcomer" (TV drama).

I used some places.

 

・・・ When I was a newcomer, there was a room with Irori.

It's broken right now, but there was a scene where you baked a picture in Irori.

This room is filled with wasabi (of taiyaki) anko with wasabi (related to the scene).

Originally, this scene seemed to be wanted to shoot in the annex (Kikuya Hanare).

But the camera was too big (give up) and the camera was too close to replace this room.

If the door was in the middle, I could put it back and reflect it.

Both the annex and this room can only be taken from diagonally, so it seems that I wanted to shoot from the front.

So as a bitter measure, he took several pictures of this room and reproduced it as a set (at the studio).

The size of the window seems to be a little different, but the rest was reproduced exactly like the atmosphere.

 

・・・ How long did you make a reservation for the store?

In general, when it comes to entertainment for a company, I guess it's been in about a month ago.

・・'-There are toilets in each room, right? Don't face each other in other rooms.

That's right.

When you return, stop (to avoid face-to-face, avoid at the same time), be sure.

If you are a company officer, you know your face well, and there are some people who know it at a glance.

In particular, if you have a SP or secretary and wait outside, we will respond more carefully.

There are times when I return it unexpectedly, but basically I stop everything.

In this book, there is a timing to call the driver, before and after serving the fruit of the last dish, but for example, I put out the fruit, so if you call me immediately (a driver), I will come within 10 minutes (car).

Then you will have to wait (the driver) for a long time.

When the story was bouncing, the car came in, and it feels like "go home".

Then, consult with the organizer, then call out, I'll come within 10 minutes (car), so let's not call now.

There is something like that kind of tacit understanding.

It's hard to understand at this time, but I know midwinter. A customer who doesn't wear a coat has a car.

The face, age, and the order of sitting, there is not much sitting here for 6 people, but for example, in the case of 3 entertaining people, 3 guests, 3 guests, 3 guests, 3 guests, you will call 2 cars You.

Please call two taxis, I imagine that the number one guest has a car.

I imagine that the first guest has a hire, so I will prepare the second and third taxis.

When you come together, you're drunk on your way home, so you're going home one by one.

Of course, there are some things.

However, depending on the number, for example, calling one is first imagined that No. 1-2 has a hire.

 

When we put on your suit, we look at that name as much as possible.

You shouldn't do this outrightly, but you'll take a glimpse of your suit's name.

Then you can see the name of the customer.

While talking about something in the meantime, or looking at the batch, where and what kind of company is like?

 

It's been in the second half of cooking to some extent, and when I don't have a meal, one (of the employees) went to see a nearby car and there was a hire of a person with the relevant name, that's right.

Fill in this information in the column of the invoice.

I wrote in a book, such as a sign of drinking alcohol and not drinking, name information.

(The name of the suit is four letters in the alphabet, and I don't know if the letter on the head is K or H, but there is ma on the way. Put as much data as you can.

For example, if you put out an invoice here and say "public relations", you can imagine that the entertainment side is a newspaper company, a magazine company, or something similar.

When you become a company officer, the department does not write it, so you should not go outside, but listen to the story, it may be something related to medicine (in the content of the story), as much information as possible Is shared by the service person.

 

There is a customer who asks me to give me an ashtray here, even though I don't smoke.

He said he had to drink there, and he had to stay firm until the last car.

It's hard, I'm sorry. There will be some circumstances.

 

In order not to be too explosive, we work as assistance to the customer service side.

For example, if a guest says in the room, "I'll pay today," I can do as much as I can if this (entertainment side) is convinced, but if the customer comes out of the room and says, "I'll pay for it," I don't accept it at all.

"Well, I'll check it," he said, "I'll check with the person who made the reservation."

It's almost out. It will be paid by the entertainment party.

 

If you don't have experience in this kind of thing (what the guest pays), it's a great deal of care.

If you want to call a car, you will not be able to stand (seat) unless you call from here, but it is safe, but there is no car, everyone has a hire, all 8 rooms full, etc. The order to return is quite difficult.

 

It's the hardest thing to look at lost things.

Our customer service staff will guide you to the bottom, and always one person will remove this chair, raise the cushion, and check that anything has fallen into the digging tatsu.

I'm sure I'll clear it up after that.

DSC03372a.jpg

・・・ It's hard to forget things and make mistakes with umbrellas.

An umbrella is a little different (even if you buy a new one, the brand is the same) or the length is different.

If you were a department store (brand goods), you wouldn't have it, especially in the past.

I managed to buy it again.

 

・・・ Your umbrellas are wrapped in each room, right?

There's a string, and all the rooms here are together.

There's an umbrella stand, about one in one room, but there's only two here.

I always tie it in a small room and tie one (to the employee).

In some cases, customers in the room on the third floor do not think that there is a separate umbrella stand on the third floor, but because the umbrella stand in the hall on the first floor is large, I put it in.

So, please tie it (for each room).

 

You usually say your company name or your name when you come.

But don't repeat the company name (for employees).

I don't know who is listening.

〇 Please tell me that you're right.

Before guiding you to your room, be sure to say where and where your seat is.

Take great care.

I have to make a mistake and open it and put it in.

If you know a lot, I don't mind that's this room.

 

Please do it before the customer says, "Please give me tea" or "please water" as much as possible (for employees).

Because I can't say "Would you like to brew or brew tea?" when I'm in business talks, so (take the initiative) "I will make tea."

Don't ask that you have to answer when your customer is working.

Also, write down notes on what you can't say in your room as much as possible.

DSC03377a.jpg

・・How did you write this book?

A publisher (I was asked to write it).

(write) I wonder if it's a good opportunity.

But gradually, I had to write something that I didn't have to write.

You don't have to write it.

Until now, I hadn't talked about divorce or that kind of story, but when asked, I said it.

I didn't hide it, but I had to write it ...

 

・・When I read this book, I thought that the landlady was very good at grasping the timing.

When I was young, I thought it would be good to do this, oh, or do what I thought, but when I started business and gradually there was something like a "flow", I was a little washed away Let's try it.

It's not just being washed away, but looking at the time, or "waiting".

Wait a little, there are good places and good opportunities while being washed away, it's good to swim strangely and swim, but after I'm just over 30s, when I start business, I'm going to "easy", different from that, "I often look at my current state", my economic thing.

The first reason why I bought a small apartment was that there was no guarantee to the other party (as it is now).

I went from Iriya and it was hard every day, so I was near (condominium).

At last, I thought I was able to guarantee it when I took some steps.

So, as soon as possible, I borrowed a little, but I paid all (loan) and from there.

If you don't have to do what you have to do now, you don't have a clear priority in your life, even if you have a chance, if something "ball" comes, not everyone, but now this is important The second is this, this is the third.

I have my own hope, but the biggest priority is this ...

With that in mind, I do business and live, and that is the most happy as a result ...

There was a time when I was looking for real estate, and think about the following.

I'm going to stop it for a while because it doesn't come out somehow.

Here and the other side (Hanare) and my home are nearby, so about one more house (although I think).

It's expensive because of the Olympics.

Then slowly after the Olympics, two or three years later.

I have a chance at that time.

 

Until now, I thought about pitching all my might, but in this area, I came to interact with long-established people who have been running for 100 years, and I think that "connect" might be even more difficult.

Ultimately, it's an effort to talk to your master about "connecting" and connect.

I need to do as much as I can, but it's gradually like that.

 

・・・ I wrote before that there was a filming of this movie "When the curtain of prayer descends".

I watched a movie, but I overlooked the scene of Kikuya. It's the last place, isn't it?

That's the last. I haven't seen it yet, when Kyoichiro Kaga left Nihonbashi Station, I came to our house and said that it was a break.

There was also a request to take various patterns and turn on the entrance lights.

After all, it was a scene where the entrance was closed.

 

・・・ Check it on the DVD of the movie "When the Prayer curtain goes down" to be released on August 2.

   Landlad, thank you very much for your busy schedule today and valuable stories.

Silver accessories “komainu Netsuki Charm” made from pure silver clay PMC @ Hama House

[Edamame] June 18, 2018 09:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.

Nowadays, I often participate in events at the neighborhood of my home, Hama House.

/archive/2018/04/hamahouse-1.html

/archive/2018/05/hama-house.html

/archive/2018/06/-2hama-house.html


We also participated in a wonderful event this time.

That's ...

"Silver accessory" komainu rooted charm made from pure silver clay PMC.

DSC_3218-1.jpg※The photo is a sample made by a professional teacher.

 

・・・ Actually, Edamame, art and drawing classes are super and clumsy humans who take points only with normal points.

Making accessories ... I'm interested, but can I really do it?

And it's a child.

When I asked in advance with courage, "Is it OK to participate with children?"

"There are scenes where you use hot plates, so it's okay if you just be careful not to put your hands at that time."

I will do my best to show my daughter Azuki (I am 3 years old) ... ! !! I've been participating with enthusiasm.

DSC_3186-1.jpg

Mr. Arakawa of Mitsubishi Materials Trading was the lecturer.

Mitsubishi Materials Trading is a company that mainly deals with corporate-to-company transactions and handles various metal parts, but this workshop was held due to the fact that its headquarters is located in the nearby office building Nihonbashihamacho F Tower.

 
First of all, there are tools to use this time on the desk.

DSC_3187-1.jpg

It is "kneaded out" along with pure silver clay that is tightly packed.

? ? ? I thought there was a reason for this.
 

In fact, "pure silver clay (PMC)" used this time.

It is a material that is easy to dry.

So, there is a fear that if you handle pure silver clay while explaining the procedure with a bumping performance, it will be dried quickly and unusable.

Therefore, first of all, we practice while listening to the explanation of the procedure using kneading!

DSC_3191-1.jpg

At this point, if you try to draw the same line many times just because it doesn't work.

On the contrary, it will not be beautiful ... after learning something experientially

Finally, the performance!


DSC_3194-1.jpg

Super to prevent the drying of clay! I was working intensively at once, so I can't leave a photo of the progress ...

I feel that the hand-kneading has become a shape in pure silver clay, which is slightly softer than kneading.

・・But it's like a cat. Rather than a dog.

※After it was completed, isn't it like a dog at the position and angle where the ears can be heard?

 That's the story. ・I see. I'll be careful from the next time.
 

By the way, the behavior of the daughter Azuki during "I'm working at once".

Hama House is a book cafe, so there are many picture books for small children.

You can buy the book here and, of course, you can read it freely in the store.

DSC_2696-1.jpg

Azuki's favorite picture book was there, so I always brought the book and read it again.

Mr. A, the person in charge of Hama House, also helped me put in and out the book, so my mother Edamame was in the "Working at once."

Thank you to Mr. A.
 

I'm working at once, and I'm waiting for you when you're done!

DSC_3195-1.jpg

After all, the head office is located in the nearby office building "Sky Gate", which contains baked goods from KEYUCA, a miscellaneous goods brand, and supermarkets, pharmacies, restaurants, etc. It comes with baked goods from Patisserie Isozaki, which is located in "Tornale".

 

Both are delicious and chewy, but first of all, what is "pure silver clay (PMC)" in the first place? That's a story.

DSC_3197-1.jpg

PMC stands for Precious Metal Clay.

In the case of pure silver clay, "silver", "water" and "glue (binding agent)" are evenly mixed.

Because you can freely make shapes, you can make your own rings and original accessories, and challenge anything with the ingenuity of the creator.

http://www.mmtc.co.jp/pmc/how_to_make.html

↑On this "PMC" introduction page, we are releasing the process of creating works in the video.
 

He also talked about why it is related to Suitengu and dogs.

Dogs are a symbol of safe delivery. So a lot of pregnant women come to Suitengu on the day of the dog.

Since it was done on this land, it seems that the subject was chosen first because it was related to the land ...

 
By the way, as I mentioned earlier, "pure silver clay" made of "silver", "water" and "glue (coupling agent)".

The next step for this to be "silver" is "dry".

Here, the "water" in the clay is skipped to make it only "silver" and "glue (coupling agent)".

At home, there is a way to dry naturally or use a dryer over a day.

DSC_3201-1.jpg

This time, I will use the hot plate.

It's not good if it's a picture (I'm sorry)

If you look closely, you'll have a steam with me!

I wish steam could get out of the works.

 
Finally, it's "firing".

Here, the components of "glue (coupling agent)" fly, and only "silver" is in a state.

DSC_3208-1.jpg

This time I used a furnace in this shape, but in fact it can be made at home.

DSC_3205-1.jpg

It seems that there are pot-type furnaces that use solid fuel for beginners, and some can be easily done.

It seems that it is recommended because it is not difficult to control the temperature if you use solid fuel (which is often used to make small pots squeeze when eating at a ryokan).

That's right. Silver melts at more than 960 degrees, so we have to avoid it further.

 
Well, it's finished.

DSC_3209-1.jpg

""...white!" !」 」」

Even though it should be only "silver", everyone is surprised and surprised.

DSC_3210-1.jpg

By the way, the outside was bordered at the time of the original clay.

Can you tell me that it will be so small? ?

After baking, it is about 90% of the original size.

 
Well, that.

DSC_3211-1.jpg

First of all, with a hard hair brush.

Then. It is polished and silver comes out!

I was a little impressed.

By the way, perhaps azuki is

"From white to silver! This must be a magic stick! "

After that, the brush was fripped and said, "Henshin !!"

Don't rush into the sense that the transformation is radish or carrots.
 

After that, finish it and add root.

The color of the root is azuki select.

(Some of them were cute pastel colors, but they were golden.)

DSC_3217-1.jpg

This is complete!
 

I think it was good that I was able to work happily while being clumsy.

And it was interesting to see a little bit of the world of pure silver clay that I didn't know at all.

There are also elements of science experiments, so I thought it was a material that could be used for free study during summer vacation for elementary school students.

(In fact, there are cases where classes dealing with pure silver clay nationwide hold classes for elementary school students during summer vacation.)
 

Hama House is also considering a pure silver clay workshop with a different subject in the future.

I'm looking forward to that opportunity!

"Ningyocho Saketei Kikuya Prosperity" Long Interview Part 1-Ningyocho Kikuya-

[rosemary sea] June 16, 2018 12:00

This is rosemary sea, which covers "gifts and enjoy yourself" as an agory.

DSC03364a.jpg

Kikuya Ningyocho is a stylish Japanese restaurant nestled on a path that leads from Ogannonji Temple in Nihonbashi Ningyocho to Nihonbashi Elementary School.

Click here for the previous article.

⇒ /archive/2017/12/post-4792.html

DSC03332a.jpg

Here's a book.

It was borrowed from Nihonbashi Library in Chuo Ward.

The title is "Ningyocho Saketei Kiku House Prosperity Book". Soshisha: Published.

The authors are Kie Shiga, the landlady, master, and married couple of Kikuya.

This book was published in 2001, so it was 17 years ago.

I read it. I read it back.

 

It is spelled out in detail how the Kikuya walks, how they are entertained, and how they are thought in running the shop. I understand well.

It has been a long time since it was published, but it was a content that could be fully understood as the current story.

I would like to introduce some of the things that are written.

 

Ⅰ. Sake of the Kiku House The appetizers of the Kiku House

In this chapter, there are many locally brewed sake that Kikuya offers to customers, the compatibility of the dishes, the choice of order of serving, and the explanation of each liquor.

It may be very helpful not only for shops that serve sake with dishes, but also for everyone who drinks alcohol.

Here's one of them.

Kikuya, who is devoted to preparing sake and serving sake that matches the dishes.

You have two low-temperature storages for sake in the basement.

Why are there two? It is to store temperature and humidity separately.

That's to match your sake.

There seems to be some sake that becomes delicious after aging.

In addition, "Kikuya's commitment" is also introduced in various ways.

 

Ⅱ. Born in New Year's Day in Tsukishima

It is written about the birth of the landlady.

The landlady grew up as the third daughter of the ironworks in Tsukishima, studied at Tsukishima Daini Elementary School and Tsukishima Daini Junior High School. After graduating from high school, he was active as the first female customs officer in Haneda.

I was married once at the age of 23, but after parting, I opened a cafeteria in Ningyocho with my mother in the basement of a communal building to serve side dishes.

It's near the current shop in 1975.

The name of the store is good. It comes from the landlady's maiden name, Kikuchi-san.

In 1980, he moved to half of the current shop and became a sake pavilion.

In 1997, it was renovated and renovated, including the neighbor, and it became the current store.

Then, the encounter with the master and the cut between them are also drawn.

The name of the shop is also Kikuya ⇒ Kikuya ⇒ Kikuya ⇒ Kikuya.

 

Ⅲ. Ningyocho Saketei Kiku House Prosperity Report

There is also a special attention in the lighting of each room. Most natural light, indirect lighting of light bulbs. Comes with an illuminance controller.

It was for the purpose of making the dishes delicious and creating an atmosphere of the place, but surprisingly, there was also the advantage of being able to respond to drama shooting.

At the time of rebuilding, all rooms are equipped with toilets so that customers in each room do not meet each other, and ventilation openings are attached to the digging gotatsu.

 

Ⅳ. The hospitality of the home style

Mr. Kikuya is said to be a "store for business negotiations."

It is said that "delicious food, good alcohol, and sensitivity to hospitality."

In particular, with regard to "sensitivity", the landlady says that they start by understanding their position and the weight of work and enhance themselves.

It seems that the local colors of locally brewed sake are used for the cutting and contact points of conversation with customers.

Other

 Deal with failures as soon as possible

 Example of filling out the slip: Customer name I heard If you drink a lot of alcohol ⇒ ◎ If you don't need it at all ⇒ × just a little bit⇒△

In addition, it seems that employees will write on a slip to arrange a return car to the waiting driver before or after serving the last fruit of the meal, and so on.

In addition, lessons learned from waiting for the suit in consideration of the customer's side, dealing with misunderstood umbrella cases, etc.

There are also talks about the accounts receivable.

To be honest, I was surprised that I'll tell you so far.

DSC03341a.jpgWe spoke with the landlady Kie Shiga.

 

・・・ Can you tell us more about the two refrigerators?

Originally, the refrigerator is not very low, but compared to the very large second, there was a humidity and environment suitable for long-term aging.

In particular, the walls were not perfect, and somehow old, moldy.

However, when I saw Mr. sake brewery, I was told that it was a very good storage, and it was certainly a good storage, but I made another one.

The second refrigerator was as low as possible so that the temperature could be adjusted, so I had both, but it was a place where water came out underground around here, so it was very good However, after the air conditioning (in the first refrigerator), it became a little disadvantage, and eventually the air conditioner was broken.

Considering whether to repair it and use it, this is left as a so-called room temperature, but because it does not turn on air conditioning, I moved it all to the new second person (sake) .

I moved it, but because it's wide, I noticed that there is a little difference in temperature between the place where it cools and the place where it doesn't cool unexpectedly.

So, rather, something that lasts relatively long near the door, and the one in front of the entire surface is low.

Now it's a bitious measure.

 

I would rather dig a little deeper into liquor, rather than placing such brands, in fact (sake brewery's) tank, and then make it for my house.

So the label is the same, but the taste is different.

Customers often bought something like they saw here, but they say that they are different from tanks, the same way, the rice (river of sake rice) is slightly different, and there are many warehouses that do not write much about it However, it's different somewhere, somewhere on the label?

You won't be able to do it until you read it.

However, since I have them packed in my tank, I have them sleep, so only one house.

The others are aged at home.

I don't need any stock if I just buy and sell it, but after all the taste changes little by little, so I work to wait to the most perfect place, so that is a general shop It may be a little different.

I think it's interesting, or we want to put out this brand responsibly as our job, so we sleep like that, drink it yourself, and if we think this is a little young, we will sleep a little and put it out later .

If it's a bit sweet, my customers don't like this sweetness, so I'm going to sleep a little and calm down before taking it out.

That's why it's a good liquor, but more than for customers, Mr. Kuramoto is probably making it like this, but it is still the work of making it because I want to pay for it So, that's why I'm doing it instead (aging it) at home.

If anything, I sell it with that point, but really good liquor grows up from there, so maybe imagine the process and wait for a month and two months, so I'm still a little more if I think it's not.

DSC03367a.jpg

・・What are the types of alcohol?

About 100 kinds are underground.

I have made some lists myself, but since I move them, I put them in my head for the time being, and if I was told that, it seems that there was certainly

Instead, if this is an underground storage room, it can be roughly divided into prefectures, from Hokkaido to Kyushu all the way, so it's rough.

 

・・・ What if you don't have a drink?

If it doesn't fit, I'll lower it right away.

There are various conditions that I don't like this type, I don't like what I'm doing now, for example, I don't want to have a slightly higher alcohol content, or maybe I like more brewed alcohol, so some people prefer daiginjo than Junmai Ginjo, so I don't want to go well with the current dishes or use raw sake. On the other hand, I like it.

I'm going to deal with that kind of thing.

Even today, there is only one set of people (customers) who don't know at all.

It's my first time, but I was introduced to someone.

Ask a little bit from something like "Is this your first time in Ningyocho?"

In the past, there was a list of officers.

That's all the place of origin.

It was a little helpful when I was in trouble, but now I can't come out.

For example, why the souvenir is a prefecture, this person probably comes from Toyama, so it's a souvenir from Toyama.

I'm in contact with Shimanto River last time, so there's a case where you don't need it because you know that liquor well.

After that, there aren't much on the market, things with a small number, maybe if you think you don't know this customer, I know this storehouse but I know this brand, but I don't know about this, maybe I know this but I don't know this.

For example, even in Fukui Prefecture, "Kokuryu (Kuroryu Sake Brewery Sake)" is known, but "Echizen Misaki (Echizen Misaki: Tanabe Sake Brewery)" is not known. This is very close, isn't it?

Then, would you like to serve Echizen Cape? Hey.

 

・・For example, if I used to say that I prefer Kumamoto's "Koro".

Whether you like Koro's daiginjo or Junmai Ginjo, Koro is basically a yeast called "No. 9 (Kyokai No. 9)" and accordingly (I will serve you alcohol).

daiginjo is the most difficult to get right now.

If you have a large number of people, I will give you a daiginjo and then go next.

There's a possibility that it's just one go.

In that case, I wonder if it's better to go around Junmai Ginjo.

 

・・・ Can you give out daiginjo and make a profit?

If you drink a lot, daiginjo wouldn't give it out.

For example, if you drink one daiginjo in a large number of people, you'll have to come alone or two people at the counter and take a bottle of daiginjo, and of course it doesn't matter, but you'll have to do the calculation to get the next thing left on the day.

 

DSC03377a.jpg(The image on the right is the calendar of Kikuya, which is listed at Rosmali's workplace.)

・・・ It seems that you can also go to rice planting and rice harvesting.

Rice planting is different for sake rice (Sakamai) and rice rice (Hanmai).

(Sake rice planting) It will be about this time, in the latter half of May, early Golden Week.

There's also Mr. sake brewery who is going to work during Golden Week because everyone wants manpower.

I went to rice planting. I cut it, too.

Also, say "Shikenden", what suits the land here is the type of rice.

When I did Jinki era (Shinkame: sake brewery in Hasuda City, Saitama Prefecture: "Hiko Grandson" sake made here is mainly served at Kikuya) in Narita City, Chiba Prefecture, If this is a rice field, about a third of that rice field is on the other side.

I did two rows here, "500 million stones (gohikumangoku: a major variety of sake rice, the second largest production volume after Yamada Nishiki, and about a quarter of Japan as a whole)."

I wonder if this sake rice matches the sunshine hours and temperature.

I knew that the 500 million stones would certainly fit, so I did only one piece (field), and if I did that, it was certainly dead.

That's why I didn't have enough sunshine. After that, there is a difference in temperature (needed).

If you don't go on the mountain, you have to be in the middle. That's why I'm going to die.

I try to see the site as much as possible.

One or two houses (seeing) of Mr. sake brewery's newest places a year, still yes.

 

・・・ We are in the middle of the interview, but we will continue with the next time.

Kabuki / Kabukokko #2 starting with a baby "Let's eat Kumatori Om Rice!" @Hama House

[Edamame] June 6, 2018 18:00

This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.


Kabuki introductory event "Kabukokko" for parents and children at Hama House held in April.

(Click here for the article at that time → /archive/2018/04/hamahouse-1.html)

The second installment was also held at Hama House.

Title: "Let's eat Kumatori omelet rice!"

"Kumatori?"

It's a traditional kabuki makeup.

Speaking of which ...

Character of Chuo-ku Tourism Certification

Also on the face of "Tenharu Senta-kun"

DSC_3129-1.jpg

I have Kumatori.

But what is the first place in the first place? ? ?
 
Lecturer is Ayu Seki, a Kabuki writer, the same as last time, and is performed on the stage himself.

DSC_3105-1.jpg

Daughter, you grew up again in less than two months.

(When baby food was three times, I really remember that it was hard ...)
 

At the beginning of the meeting, first explain "Kumatori".

Kumatori is a way of makeup that expresses "feeling of anger" and "force".

Ylla ←In modern times, this mark is often used to express "anger".

DSC_3109-1.jpg

I think it expresses how blood vessels emerge.

It's surprising that Kumatori is actually the same.

Expressing the muscles uplifting when angry with makeup in an easy-to-understand manner ...

DSC_3110-1.jpg

It's like this

DSC_3112-1.jpg

My eyebrows are a bit moky

If you try it somehow, it may be a very modern expression! That's what I think.

And what surprised me was that "how Kumatori draws varies from person to person."

It seems that the way Kumatori draws is slightly different depending on the actor.

It seems that actors can see "Oh, this is ◎◎" just by looking at the picture of Kumatori.

When you actually see the stage, it's a point to check it out.
 

Well, finally.

This is the appearance of Hama House's special omelet!

DSC_3113-1.jpg

Omurice with a plain face made of seaweed.

Let's draw your own "Kumatori" with ketchup! ! That's right.

Kumatori expresses "vitrance".

So don't tracing an example of something,

Let's express your own "anger" and " momentum"! That's why.

Certainly, "Kabuki" is "tilt".

It's not a straight "noth";

It's a little outlaw or a figure that is said to be "changed".

It's an expression of the free expression of that era.
  
My daughter Azuki (soon 3 years old) gave me a plate.

If you give it with ketchup...

DSC_3117-1.jpg

Yeah, in many ways, "I'm inclined."

(I guess the bottle's ketchup was almost taken out (a big sweat))
 

For adults, too.

DSC_3119-1.jpg

DSC_3120-1.jpg

Each one is different and interesting!

Kabuki is the original form of freedom that is not "this must be done".

It was the corner of everyone's omurice, where the essence was living somewhere.

Of course, this omelet was delicious together.
 

When I'm full with a chat

This time, make the mask of Kumatori!

(Same as last time, it was done by illustrator Akane Uraitani.)

DSC_3121-1.jpg

Red Kumatori is common, isn't it?

The ally of justice is also often red.

DSC_3123-1.jpg

The blue Kumatori is the image of "vicious" and "cold blood character".

DSC_3127-2.jpg

It seems that brown is used to express "non-human".

I didn't know the existence of blue or brown Kumatori, so I learned a lot.
 

・・Well, while there is such a story,

Again, it's "Kabuki is tilted."

Let's make your own Kumatori mask.

Azuki, I'm trying to make Kumatori masks!

DSC_3124-1.jpg

At first, I was looking at the example, and my mother Edamame guided ...

After all, I wanted to do it myself, "Ah-chan!"

DSC_3126-1.jpg

The face of a pop justice hero, "tilted," has been completed.
 
Adults, too.

DSC_3127-1.jpg

Colorful and vivid Kumatori is finished!

Colors other than red (red) and black are used as pigments for makeup in the Edo period.

If there was, perhaps the Kumatori of such a face

It may have been handed down as a "tradition".

I loved to introduce new things in "tilt"

If you are a Kabuki actor from the Edo period

I had imagined that I was doing that.
 

So it was 90 minutes in a flash.

A valuable time where you can touch Kabuki as a casual and familiar thing without thinking hard.

I'm looking forward to seeing you again.
