  • A day in the life at a Japanese Bakery in Tokyo Japan. This is the working life of a typical Japanese baker and their Japan work culture. We follow the Japan baker during their work hours as well as the morning routine and after work life. Japanese bakeries are known for their unique variety of bread products quite different to their western counterparts, with items such as melon pan, an pan and all kinds of sozai breads. And although rice is a Japanese staple, bread gained in popularity during the meiji period, and in less than 2 centuries, it’s become even more popular than rice. Soft Japanese bread with all sorts of cream and curry fillings, mentaiko and yakisoba toppings is all perfectly suited for the local taste. In Japan, food safety is paramount to showcasing and serving delectable breads. And with Japanese customers equally conscious about cleanliness, it's almost culturally mandatory for breads to be individually wrapped assuring customers that each piece of bread has been properly handled and no else has touched it. Shokupan is a Japanese milk bread, popular for its milky-sweet taste, undeniable moistness and pillowy cottoncandy like softness often served as breakfast toast or sandwich bread. Different than traditional white bread, it has a richer flavorful experience. The Yudane baking method which originated in Japan is used here. Instead of being cooked, the flour is mixed with boiled water then left to cool down before use, which gelatinizes the starch in the flour resulting in a more tender bread which stays softer for longer.

      One person’s dream is another person’s nightmare. They already said it, she’s been hospitalized before for exhaustion and doesn’t look like she slowed down so it could happen again. I definitely wouldn’t have quit dancing to bring poor kids into this strange world. I’d much rather be a rock star self sufficient ballerina baker who has time to relax and do whatever after work. Rather than have all those people needing her constantly. She’s going to age very fast if she doesn’t find time to relax. People get a false sense of importance when they are always *needed*. It really is doing a disservice to everyone around them when that person doesn’t demonstrate proper self care to relax and be alone. Because that means she would expect others to do as she does. It’s a sick cycle. We need to slow down for ourselves and for others. It’s not a competition… it’s not a race… but people treat it as such.

    Arina (harina) means "flour" in Spanish. Pan means bread in Spanish too (Spanish and Portuguese people brought bread to Japan, so that is why they use the Spanish/Portuguese word for bread). As she is a flamenco dancer, she probably knows that, so there is no better name for her shop. Besides... that lady is working amazingly hard EVERY SINGLE DAY! My deepest respect to her!

      Not only did the Portuguese bring flour (harina) and bread (pan), they also brought a little treat that's remained enormously popular to this day: Castella (pronounced "KA-su-TE-ra" in Japanese) is a moist sort of sponge cake, often with a layer of melted sugar on top that goes especially well with a cup of tea for the 3-o'clock snack ( _san-ji no oyatsu_ ). The most famous variety is the traditional Nagasaki _kasutera_ , though countless variations abound. FI, not far out the Chuo Line from Shinjuku Station lies Koenji, where there's a small shop not too far from the station that specializes in a sort of soufflé style of _kasutera_ that's remarkably light and fluffy. Like this little bread shop, 3 or 4 hard-working ladies run the whole show.
      BTW, to Mr. Paolo, this is a lovely little window on the lives of "regular folks" in Japan, and really done in a sympathetic and unobtrusive way. Bravo!👏👏 I think you've really hit on something here. Hope you can keep it up. 👍✨

    I don't at the moment but I worked as a baker in Sweden a couple of years back. Starting work at 2-3am is pretty standard since the bread has to be ready in time for people to have fresh bread for breakfast in the morning.
    Also, in regard to her minimalist makeup routine: wearing makeup as a baker is pretty much a no-go. Those ovens (and the steam from them) get pretty hot so any makeup literally melts off your face. That in combination with all the dust inside a bakery makes wearing makeup more of a hassle than anything else. When I went to culinary school, there were a few girls in my class who stubbornly wore makeup the first few times in the bakery and they'd all end up looking like Alice Cooper by the end of the day. Many of them ended up having to go wash their makeup off because the mascara had melted from the heat of the ovens and made their eyelashes stick together.
    I plan to open my own shop somewhere in Japan in the future (making European and Swedish goodies) and I'm doing the research for it now so this video had pretty good timing. It would have been nice to know where they get their ingredients and things from - although I realize that I might be the only one in the audience with that interest, haha.

    I love Japanese bakeries. In the 20+ years I’ve been in this country, the quality and style of bread available in Japan has changed a lot. Basically, bakeries here used to be divided into two groups: those that tried to replicate traditional European (French) baking styles; and “Japanese style“ bakeries serving simple, sweet breads and light, tasteless white bread meant to accompany a meal in place of rice. But recently things have diversified a lot, and the quality of bread sold in many bakeries here has gotten quite excellent.
    Anyway, great content as usual Paolo. 🍻

      @@ev721 Well, it’s not that NO ONE speaks it. Nearly every Japanese adult has studied English for at least a few years in the public school system, and many also take private lessons as well. A small percentage are fluent enough to communicate confidently. But even people with moderate skills tend to panic and freeze up when foreign people try to speak English with them. (There are various cultural reasons for this I won’t get into.) One thing to keep in mind though, if you travel here, is that although most people aren’t confident with verbal communication in English, they’re generally pretty decent at reading it. So my advice would be to bring along a notepad and a pen. 😀
