Shinmai Shimai no Futari Gohan - Ch. 50 - Handmade Udon

[firathmagi]

@Purplelibraryguy well you can get more strength out of your feet so you can work the dough to be stiffer than it is with your hands. prob not necessary for the people who make udon for a living because of muscle development tho

Thanks for the translation !

@Purplelibraryguy I'm pretty sure they conventionally do it by hands. This probably is more of an orthodox way the author used to make the scenes a bit suggestive.

@HungryIm Nah, I’ve seen enough manga that had an udon making scene to say that it probably is a legit method in Japan.

Of the top of my head, I can think of these two manga (but I don’t remember which chapters)

@AnonDePlume There's also a chapter about that in Cooking Papa

@AnonDePlume and in Mr Ajikko drop big weights on it, or use logs with weights.

has anyone pointed out that https://www.salarymansubs.com/ salarymansubs is doing a full sub of the jdrama version of our fav manga

also after the first episode it mentions that amazon prime has some rights to it, so i chatted amazon support and apparently they don't have a proper method of suggestions, so i assume they mean jack shit, but definitely still worth doing.

Thanks for the callout on salaryman subs - I've got that bookmarked for later!
