AISubs v3.5
Together with Nugizaka46, let's learn about domestic products!
What we eat is made in our own country as much as possible.
We call it "domestic product".
Current food supply rate in Japan is 37% calorie- based.
It depends on import about 60%.
If there is less rice fields and fields in Japan, and if import from abroad is restricted due to disasters,
we may lose what we eat.
In this program, we will learn about how domestic ingredients we eat are made and where they are made.
Members of Nogizaka46, who support J.A. Group's domestic and international activities, will report on the site.
We are also posting quizzes about domestic and international products on our special page.
This year, 2021, is International Fruit and Vegetable Year set by the United Nations.
It is a good opportunity to think about nutritional and health benefits of fruits and vegetables.
Tsutsui and Kakehashi visit Mitsui, a fruit farmer in Nagano Prefecture, and experience hard-working care and apple harvesting.
This time, we will start with the help of Shiwa family!
I would like to select the apples you two have harvested this time.
Yes, select.
Among the apples you have harvested, there are various ranks.
At home, we ship to farmers and have them line up in supermarkets, and if you ship to farmers and have them line up in supermarkets,
and if you ship to farmers and have them line up in supermarkets,
but the taste itself is the same, so we sell delicious things on our own e-commerce site,
or we offer it cheaply to families with children depending on the degree of scratch,
so I would like to turn it like that.
Yes!
I would like to actually do it.
Yes!
Actually, look at the apple and see if there are any scratches and colors overall.
Yes!
Actually, this one has a good color and is good, so I will put it in this JA box.
Yes!
And if you look here, there is a scratch, and this is sold on our e-commerce site,
so I would like you to put it in this box.
Yes!
Please try it!
No, this is...
What will it be like?
Especially scratches...
I don't think so, but in fact, this bad part is called rust, and it's a little worn out like this, and it's easy to come out at low temperatures in spring, but if it's a little JA, it will be shipped out, so I'd like to sell it on our E.C. site.
Yes, I understand.
Please do it more and more.
Yes.
This is...
As I said earlier, technically rust is good, but if you look at it as a whole, rust can get in like this, so this is also on our site.
I see.
Then...
Challenge sales are sold by all farmers around here, and they are sold by the brand "JAE NAKANOSHI", so if you put in something a little lower rank, it will also affect the image of the brand throughout the area, so please look at it relatively carefully.
What do you think of it as a whole?
Hmm, what do you think?
What do you think?
Well, it looks good, so I'll give you this one.
Oh, you passed!
You passed!
It's beautiful, isn't it?
It is.
It's glossy.
Okay, I found someone who passed.
Thank you for selecting.
Thank you very much.
How was it?
It's tough, isn't it?
The criteria for judging is high, I think.
It's difficult.
I found it to be an important job.
How are these apples sold?
They are sold at a cheaper price at home,
or at home with children, as a preventive measure against the departure of young people and fruits.
In addition, we process the apples that have fallen off and process them into juices and serve them to everyone.
The two people who worked hard to help will enjoy the apple juice made of comparative foreign goods.
By the way, the three women behind me are using comparative foreign goods.
This is not the apple juice I know of.
This is the most fragrant apple juice I've ever had.
Oh, really?
Yes.
It's amazing.
It's a rich apple juice.
This one with scratches is still delicious, isn't it?
Yes, it is.
Sometimes you can run faster or slower than others,
but there are many kinds of apples.
Among them, we want to make use of them.
I think it is our farmers' destiny to make use of apples and apples so that everyone can enjoy them.
What will happen to these apples in the future?
We will send them to Mr. J. Nakanoshi and gather them in a place called a competition center.
Other farmers besides us will also gather and compete there.
In addition, we will further divide the size of the apples and the rank among them.
Then we will pack them up and go to the market.
Then we will line up at supermarkets all over the country.
In addition, we will export them overseas.
We can't do it at home, but by sending them to Mr. J. Nakanoshi, we will be able to send domestic fruits overseas as well.
We can't do it with just one farmer, but by sending them to small places, we will be able to spread domestic fruits overseas.
I am very happy that domestic apples can be eaten overseas.
Even if we line up at supermarkets, I can see that it is a year chosen by choice.
First of all, we want to produce good apples for ourselves.
It can be a brand not only in Japan, but also in other countries.
I think this is one of the characteristics of Japanese fruits.
That's amazing. I'm happy.
Actually, I am also a "no-tuber" at JA.
From a producer's standpoint to a consumer's standpoint, we would like to share various information.
I would like you two to see it today.
Is it okay?
I would love to see it.
This is from last year...
Oh, not last year, this year.
Oh, it's last year.
Last year...
50cm?
That's right.
It was streamed in December.
Wet snow can fall all at once.
And it's the same for fields like this.
The low branches all end up under the snow.
And when it melts, it's pulled, so all the branches break.
So we fly a drone and see where we can protect the trees from.
This one is actually broken.
This is...
Like this.
It looks scary.
It is.
If we don't spread this kind of information,
things like this can happen at the production site.
Including those things, we are doing our best to deliver water and sweets to you.
We spent a lot of time and effort to make this apple.
The skin was about to fall apart, so we pulled it out.
But we are still removing it.
If we go a little further, it's actually flooded now.
About six hours after we filmed it, the water started to get wet.
At first we were able to get into the field,
but about two or three hours later, the water got up to here.
When we woke up in the morning, it was like this.
There was a tree where you are pointing now, but it's completely submerged in water.
Oh, I see.
It's completely submerged in water.
It's by the river, so it can't be helped that water gets in,
but in recent years, this kind of water has increased.
I see.
Is there any water damage that has happened recently?
Well, a big disaster in the near future is that in 2019, when Typhoon No. 19 struck, the field was completely destroyed, and even this year's water damage, the same area was flooded.
I see.
If I was the only one who was damaged like this, my heart would break, but why is it like this? How do you rebuild your feelings?
In my case, basically, when I became a farmer, there were various reasons, but after all, having a family meal or thinking that each person is delicious is very meaningful, and there is something I am doing to deliver it, so of course I am sad.
The field that was flooded earlier also entered before harvest on the 10th, so what touched the water becomes waste.
Even so, there are people who wait for me, so I want to deliver it firmly.
That's what I deliver as an individual, but as a J.A., there are people who are looking forward to the wild, not directly with me, but there are people who are looking forward to it, so I'm doing my best in a place where I can't lose in the thought that I have to make a lot of numbers .
Well, really, everything is gone before the harvest on the 10th.
It hurts more than I imagined.
It hurts, doesn't it?
Just looking at it makes me feel bad.
I'd like you to try the cooked apples, too.
I'd like to move a little bit.
May I?
Thank you very much.
It seems that Ms. Mitsui will teach us a special sweet recipe made in Korea using delicious apples she made.
We visited this cafe near the farm.
Now, we're going to move to Cafe Elk near our farm and have you two make sweets.
Today, you'll make delicious sweets using domestic apples you got at home.
I can't do it alone, so I'd like Cafe Elk's Ms. Kondo to help me out.
I'm Kondo. Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, too.
What kind of sweets will you make for us today?
Today, we're going to make apple pie using apples you got from Ms. Mitsui's farm.
I can't wait!
First of all, we'll make jam.
Put chopped apples and sugar in a pot.
Now, squeeze a lemon.
If you don't squeeze a lemon, the color of apples will get worse.
So, squeeze a lemon evenly.
Here you go.
And last but not least, this is important.
What is it?
Kondo-san took out an apple's red skin and packed it in a bag.
To make the apple jam cute and pink, we put this in and boil it together.
If you mix the apple sugar so that it blends in, water will come out of the apple.
We will boil it with this water.
After boiling it for about 10 minutes, it will look like jam.
From there, mix it with a spatula and bring out the color.
Then...
Oh, it's pink.
It's pink, isn't it?
Look.
Wow, it's amazing.
From there, we will boil it further.
How is it?
I'm excited.
Here you go.
Wow, it's amazing.
It's pink.
It's really pink.
It's dyed.
It's cute.
Water came out of the apple and it looks like jam.
Please turn off the heat.
It's done.
It looks delicious.
I'm looking forward to it.
Apple pie.
I'm getting hungry.
Right?
Now that the jam is done, we will cut the apple on top of the pie.
Thank you.
Okay, I will cut this apple...
What shape should I cut it in?
Please leave it in this shape and cut it about 2 to 3 mm thick from the top.
When it's done, it will be in one shape.
Please be careful when you cut it.
It's okay if it's 5 mm thick.
Thank you.
You are kind.
You are good.
Am I good?
Yes, you are good.
Is there any apple that goes well with apple pie?
Yes, apple pie and this cinnamon gold that you brought are also good for making sweets.
And there is an apple called "akibae".
Did you get it?
Yes, I did.
The red one.
Yes.
"Akibae" is also good for making sweets.
So, red skin is important for apple pie.
I see.
Yes, that kind of apple is good for apple pie.
I see.
Apples are cut in "ogi" shape.
They put apple and jam on top of pie crust.
Can I put jam on top of pie crust?
Yes, you can.
Can I do like this?
Oh, I see.
I misunderstood.
Did you think you can put jam on top of pie crust?
After putting a lot of apple jam on top of pie crust, put cut apple on top of pie crust.
Okay, let's move on.
It looks difficult, but it's easy to make.
Yes, it is.
But doesn't it look good?
Yes, it does.
It's easy to make.
Okay, last one.
Wow!
It's done.
It looks good.
Doesn't it look good?
Yes, it does.
Okay, while apple is being baked,
lift up pie crust and wrap it with apple.
Okay.
I'm going to put a little bit of jam on top of pie crust.
- Wow! - It's wrapped.
- The process itself is surprisingly easy. - Yes, it's easy.
- You can do it at home. - Yes, you can.
The apples are wrapped nicely.
All that's left is to bake them.
- Okay, they're done baking. - Wow!
- They look so good! - Like this.
- They look so stylish! - Right?
- Wow! - They're all lined up nicely.
- There's no gap and it's baked nicely. - It looks good.
- The color of their faces are different and they look gorgeous. - That's right.
- It looks good. - It looks good.
The apple pie served on a plate looks so good!
How will it taste?
- It looks so good! - It does!
- It smells so good! - It looks so good!
This apple pie was harvested in Mitsui's farm.
Since we're here, let's eat it together!
- One, two... - Itadakimasu!
Itadakimasu!
You look so happy!
- Is it good? - Yes!
The apple pie we got from Mitsui's farm.
- I heard the apple is sweet. - Really?
It's so good!
I like the crispy apple jam that Sayaka made.
It's more sweet because it's baked, and it's delicious.
I've never eaten apple pie with many kinds of apples in it, so it's very fresh.
That's right.
The pie dough is unique and very delicious.
The pie dough is very delicious.
By mixing various kinds of apples,
sweet apples and acidic apples,
we don't add sugar or other sweeteners,
but we use the original taste of apples to make apple pie.
It's more delicious when you add various things than one.
It's a luxury.
Because it's made in Japan, we were able to put in so many varieties of apples.
I'm more attracted to the charm of Japan.
That's wonderful.
The apple pie was delicious.
It was delicious.
Thank you very much.
Thank you for your help.
Thank you very much.
I ate it and it was delicious in sweets,
but there are various nutrients in apples and fruits in general.
I hope young people will eat a lot of apples and fruits.
Can you tell me why apples and fruits are good for you?
Fruits are rich in vitamins and minerals and have a lot of dietary fiber.
The goal of each fruit is about 200 grams,
so if it's an orange, it's two and if it's an apple, it's one.
I see.
Fruits are not only delicious but also good for your health.
For Mitsui, a fruit producer,
do you have any dreams for the future?
My dream is, as well as the field I helped with earlier,
but fruit production is still a difficult job,
and it is often separated from the elderly, including natural disasters,
so I want to maintain the orchards.
In that regard, I would like young people to eat and
make the orchards more active in Japan,
and make people who eat it happy.
I would like to create an environment where people eat and the producers are happy.
If we teenagers can help in any way, we would like to help.
I think there are many things lined up in supermarkets,
so if you imagine the story ahead of you, you can see a lot of things.
Please enjoy it.
Thank you.
I will do my best, too.
Thank you.
Recently, there have been various natural disasters,
but what do you think about farming in Japan?
Our seniors have made crops that have been rooted in their land since ancient times,
so I think it is important for me to continue to do so,
so that we can continue to do so, and so that we can entrust it to future children.
It would be nice if we could take over the field in the future.
Today, I visited Mitsui's farm and ate a lot of apples made in Nagano Prefecture.
Every variety is very delicious, and it would be sad if we couldn't eat Japanese apples anymore,
so I would like to take the initiative and eat more and more Japanese apples
and connect them with the future.
Thank you for today.
After working all day today, I realized again how amazing producers are.
I think I will continue to eat domestic fruits in the future, so I would like you to be grateful for that.
Thank you very much for today.
Thank you for having us.
I would like to spread the ingredients consumed in Japan to domestic producers and other members of Nagizaka.
Please search "nagizaka46 domestic" on the web.
Bye-bye!
