Iron Chef - Battle Natto (2 of 5)

[fpnhq292]

What a good calligrapher they are!

[yukiguni28]

Awesome episode! Fifteen minutes have elapsed and they've just finished writing the menu! What legends!

[Leziii]

Wow......show Bobby Flay this...

[xraidedlok]

goddamn this is gonna be bad ass. the sun vs the moon

[mokshalovely]

I love that move Chairman Kaga pulled when he said "NATTOOOO."

[mokshalovely]

@mokshalovely I know right? How cute was that^^

[darkarcader]

NGAT-TO!!!

[jakotsu99]

I stirred more than 15 times and I got bubbles :(

[ChangeSona]

This is one of my favorite unveiling scene in the whole series. Challenger's "you take the cake" expression, Michiba's "oh, my..." grin, and, of course, Chariman Kaga's hand gesture.

[JMKenobi2007]

really! I love that Hand Gesture.

[sweetjoey2]

in other words natto is tofu EW my opinion

[Makaristos]

This is probably my favourite start to any Kitchen Stadium battle: two master chefs taking their time to write their menus in beautiful calligraphy: brushes not knives, as Fukui-san said. So civilized, so refined.

[qinya]

One of my favourite parts of this show is when they unveil the ingredient- the enigmatic atmosphere accentuated by the dry ice, the camera shots of the chefs faces' as ideas and whole menus whiz through their minds, etc etc. BUT this is one of my fav. unveiling ingredient moment: I burst out laughing when the chairman said na-touuuuuu and did the action of the sticky beans with his hands. LOL.

[Sgrubb1S]

So did Michiba, apparently.

[TOMMYMOM]

納豆食べたくなっちゃったｗ

ちなみに二人とも達筆だな～

[junekoman]

0:40

lol.

[SturgeonQueenTH]

I love how the Chairman says NAAAAA-TOOOEEEE

[Epsilonei]

Don't forget his hand gesture!!

XD

[tototo121]

If my memory serves me right!

[tepungpelita]

lol...this phrase I heard it everytime, almost every episode i think..

[FrostbittenWolf]

I know! Makes the chairmen sound like he's going senile if he has to keep saying that...

[kos5966]

what is foagra?

[icingfeestbeest]

He means foie gras (litterally fat liver) it is the liver of a goose or sometimes duck after being force fed large amounts of grains to have it increase in size and fatten. The birds actually also do this themselves before they migrate so they can go without food for a long time and use up this fat in their liver. The liver is as a results very firm a bit like a paste or paté. Tastes very rich and very different from normal liver, a delicatesse.

[bobjones123]

Sooooy Sauuuuuce.

[VarietySelectionTV]

Can anybody tell me what is natto?

[r4gd3]

Natto: Fermented Soybeans.

[VarietySelectionTV]

What about nachos?

[r4gd3]

Nachos: Tortilla chips and a thick cheese. Well, that's the cheap version.

Southern California Version: Tortilla chips, shredded cheese, guacamole(avocado... dip), a thick Mexican salsa, carne asada beef(steak), seasoning.

Or replace the tortilla chips with french fries. Hello cholesterol.

[doori5952]

oh gosh, when the crazy host dude with the 18th century attire unveiled the pile of natto, i was drooling like crazy.

i'm so craving natto right now... with seaweed

[blackmind981]

NnnaaaAAaattTTttoOoOo!!!!! xDDDDDDDDDDDDd

[Makaristos]

Remember: stir it up 15 times!

[Azamat1337]

lol is it me or when they show the broth it looks like there are live maggots in it

[KevinMcDunn]

Oh man, if I were in Michiba's position I wouldn't be able to cook, I'd spend the hour laughing hysterically every time I reached for some natto and thought of Kaga's crazy announcement.

[mikiwink]

omg naaaaaaatoooooo *crazy hand motions* i stirred that part at least 15 times i laughed forever XD

btw...that nnnnaaatoooo *crazy hand motions* does not look good but..i'll try anything once...so when i'm like 80..i'll try it out

[liljay652002]

I like natto with a little bit of soy sauce and hot mustard. I'm getting a craving for it right now!

[allan9874]

whats natto

[JakeAustin16]

the nastiest thing ive ever eaten

[JPCWhutwhut]

ahahahaha Naaattooo! *waves hands*

[whotookaegir]

I always thought the dubbing on this show was amazing. The dialog is SO conversational it's so hard to believe these are actors reading from a script.

[screamingdean5]

I believe some of the dub actors are the guys who work at Iron America. I recognize two of the voices.

[Makaristos]

Remember: always, make sure to stir it up 15 times. Then add soooy saauuuce to your naaattttoo.

[abukim]

hahaha michiba was probably thinking "wat the hell is wrong with this guy?" lol

[Crawkid]

back when they are announcing the indreidient..i beleieve michiba is smiling because of the weird hand sign the chair man did XDDD I gotta watch that again.

[bobjones123]

Sooooy Sauuuuuce.

[freshsprout]

At least the chefs seemed to know what natto was.. did you see the grin on both Michiba and the challenger?

I LOVED the natto gesture.. best yet from Chairman Kaga. Priceless!

[fudgetastic25]

issit true that natto has quite a stink?that's what i've been hearing.what kind of a stink does it have?

[calicore]

Does he say "A la cuisine"?

[magentawombat]

"Allez cuisine"

It means "let's cook" sort of.

[KisakiQueenie]

Kaga is FABULOUS in this episode. The outfit, the yelling, the gestures... This is the best I've seen him! {But, ugh, natto... Dx}

[SiKedek]

What is Kaga wearing this time - this is the first and last time I've seen this outfit (maybe for good reason too...)

[zetasan]

Nope. This is the second time for me.

The first time of course is the "Puffy shirt" Jerry wore in one of the Seinfeld episodes.

[6ixsux]

lol me too!

[redchakranaruto]

is natto a vegetable?

[phelank]

natto is fermented soybeans.

[SturgeonQueenTH]

What does it taste like?

[bardsinister]

I have never tasted natto, so I am finding this battle pretty interesting.

[Whoongtube]

I have tried natto once. Maybe I'm just not used to the taste but I found it horrible. I love Japanese food in general, but I just can't take natto. Maybe I would like it more if it were prepared by Michiba?

[u5881]

natto is an acquire taste. not everyone can eat them or like them. even some japanese cant even eat them. so dont feel bad if you dont like it taste..
