今の日本人に取って一番大切な事は
やれること、やっていいこと、
早く通常な状態に戻る
地震の恐ろしさを見せつけられた今、自然の力におびえる日々を過ごしてはいけない。
日本人として自分の国を愛し暮らしつずける限り強く生きることが今一番大切なのではと、思う。

一瞬輝く子供の笑顔

落ち着いた動きをとる陰の姿
現実から逃れる事のできない
温度が下がり寄せあって夜を過ごし
すべては失われていない

悲しい時には笑い、楽しい時には泣く
こうして心は安らげられるにちがいない
手作りのおむすび 輝く笑顔
すべては失われていない

ここで日本の文化とはと聞きたい
自分のために、家族のために、隣にいる人のために
これが 思いやり、見える気持ちにちがいない

Day Seven in Tokyo Magnitude 9.0 hits Japan

Magnitude 9.0 Strongest Earthquake recorded in Tokyo Japan.  My 10 min experience during and after the quake.  This is nothing compared to what happened in the Northern part of Japan.  My thoughts and prayers go out to the people affected by this horrible disaster. 
日本来日中に起きた地震。私は東京にいたためこの程度の揺れで被害も無く無事このパワフルな地震から逃れることができました。しかし、東日本の方たちは皆様もご存知のように自然の凄まじいパワーに飲み込まれてしまいました。存在者が一人でも多く見つかることを祈ってます。

MMP 049 Love Machine




RIP Gary Moore, still can't believe it.  Just found out during the recording of this episode. Its February and this is the month of Love, and for some the month of torture. I remember getting dumped right before Valentines Day. Lets listen to some tender ballads tonight. 二月と言ったらヴァレンタイン。一緒に過ごす相手を探している人、見つかられずに一人で過ごすことになるあなた。バラードがあれば盛り上がれる。On this episode I talk about a special Charvel Guitar. Tonal characteristics of a Maple Body Guitar. Eddie Van Halen's fall out with Ernie Ball Music Man Guitars. Shotgun Messiah guitarist Harry Cody.  And a sad news that I found out about during the recording of this episode.  R.I.P Gary Moore. 1952-2011 (2/6/2011) つぶやきの@defconone2007 "ゲイリーの情熱のこもったプレイはいつまでも忘れません。安らかに…"

Braised Pork Belly - Hangzhou Dongpo Pork

Since I got this fabulous Cuisinart 3.5 qt size Slow Cooker for Christmas, I have been looking for new dishes to make.  Here is one my friend always makes for me with his crock pot.  I decided to give it a try with his recipe.  I added the garlic to give it some extra flavor.

Ingredients:
step 1 to 3


3 lbs skin-on pork belly
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
7 cups cold water
1/2 cup Shaoxing wine
1 inch piece of ginger
6 cloves of garlic
4 scallions
2/3 cup dark soy sauce


Directions:
  1. Crush the ginger
  2. Chop the garlic
  3. Cut the scallions 
  4. Mix the dark brown sugar, cold water, Shaoxing wine, ginger, garlic, and scallions into pan
  5. Place the pork belly skin side down into the pan
  6. Bring pan to a boil over high heat
  7. Lower the heat once it reaches to a boil and let simmer 
  8. Place the cover onto the pan and let braise for 30 min
  9. Remove the pork belly and place into a slow cooker skin side up
  10. Immersed the pork belly halfway with the liquid from the pan
  11. Place the lid on the slow cooker and set on "Low"
  12. Check back in 6 to 7 hrs
  13. Carefully remove the pork belly and cut into 2 inch pieces and serve
step 4 to 8
step 9 to 11

Chinese style Japanese Kakuni (角煮)
What I learned: I let the pork belly cook for 8 hrs total.  It was a little over cooked.  I also used regular soy sauce and light brown sugar.  You have to use Dark soy sauce and Dark brown sugar for the flavor to properly penetrate.  So, do not make the mistake I made.  I listed the ingredients for a 3 lbs piece of pork belly.  I used a  0.7 lb piece of pork belly and adjusted the ingredients.   After 8 hrs, I was left with 4 small cubes.  Make sure to make at least 3 lbs to serve 6 to 8 people.

Tribute to Phil Kennemore of Y&T.  This was supposed to be a year opener but I got news on the day I was ready to post this episode of this sad news.  Phil Kennemore has lost his battle with lung cancer at the age of 57.  I have decided to include a short conversation of Phil Kennemore with my friends, Concerto Moon from Japan captured during a show in June of 2008 San Francisco CA. One of the nicest person I have come across since starting the Metal Moment Podcast.  Yesterday & Todayのフィル・ケネモアー氏が肺がんで一月七日に亡くなってしまいました。フィルさんと日本のコンチェルト・ムーンさん達との会話をこの番組に乗せさせていただきました。
