Hokkaido is cold. It's so cold that I'm about to freeze to death but today

You're going to explore some of the most popular foods across the region and see how much awesome food we can eat

We're starting our trip here at Hakodate morning market, lots of fish, absolute blizzard. Let's go and see some food

Hokkaido is Japan's second-largest island the most northern prefecture and considered by many to be Japan's seafood capital given

it's one of the only prefectures in the country to have access to the Pacific and Sea of Japan and the

Fertile fishing grounds of the Tsugaru strait however it's not just seafood Hokkaido is also the home of miso

ramen and is Japan's dairy capital producing over half of the nation's milk

Joining us on our trip is real-life American boy and dare

So the main thing in Hakodate is the fish, you can't go anywhere without seeing fish lots of crabs as well

So we're gonna try a bit of crab some crabs legs and just lots of fish. It's about what?

What dish comes to mind were they're here Hokkaido in that dish will usually be crab as you wander through Hakodate's morning market?

You're presented with an endless supply of crabs

With exciting sounding names like snow crabs and king crabs which are recognizable for their terrifyingly long legs

Which when spread out can reach up to a meter in length

That said there's no doubt the creature is a truly 'crab'tivating sight. Fun fact

That's the second best crab related pun in this video

Absolute blizzard outside, but we're here in our first place to try our first dish of the trip

Which is some crabs legs. I say, that's the first thing we're gonna eat today

I've already had my first snack of the day

Which was some some squid with sesame seeds in it a guy at market stall and I've lured me into eating it

It's got very strong pungent kind of scents to it

And I bought it just to be nice. Looking forward to 'crabby' little caught crab, Chris?

Crabs legs just arrived it literally smells fantastic she lifted off the lid and a whole cloud of steam

Just sort of rose up. But the only thing is, I don't know how to eat it. How do you eat it?

That's how you eat it, Chris. Do you eat crab often? In Japan not so much

What are you actually always has the texture of chicken?

It's a pretty bad description of crab is not yes

Very succulent very juicy very fresh well. I literally saw the crowd get killed about 10 minutes ago

You say I feel a bit bit guilty but guilt aside

We've got the plate of crabs legs freshly grilled

And we've got a donburi kind of a mixture of different fish on a bed of rice

We've got salmon salmon roe and hotate, usually you dip the fish in the soy sauce then eat it what you're supposed to do here

Is put the soy sauce in the bowl with some wasabi mix it up, and then pour it over the fish

So that's the first time I've ever done that. That was supposed to be really slick shot

We put the soy sauce and wasabi on I just tipped it all over the table anyway

Somebody had told me a few years ago. I'd be eating raw fish for like breakfast quite often

I don't think I would have believed it, but after living in Japan for a few years

You will need to get used to it, and I'm still getting used to salmon roe salmon egg. Very-very salty.

Chris is behind the camera - laughing as I eat

What is that they're camera gloves camera glove as you can easily hit the buttons with these two fingers

Oh, you're a genius. Yeah, except. You're not found a statue of Chris the cameraman

Market shuts around midday the best time to get here is about eight to ten feet 10 a.m.

Didn't think I'd be eating a cantaloupe at fish market

That's a really weird line, that sounds really wrong

Hokkaido's Yubari melons are famously some of the most expensive fruit on the planet famed for their almost perfectly round

Appearance making it a popular gift amongst friends and family and whilst the slice of cantaloupe. I bought costs just 250 yen

That's a drop in the ocean compared to the price of two

perfectly round Yubari king melons which was sold in an auction last year for the obscene sum of 3 million yen.

I just hope the perfectly round melons were worth it although. Call me mr.. Cynical

I can't can't see how how they were at all really just just fruit isn't it? But, what do I know?

So a little bucket to wash your hands afterwards as well very convenient, and it's warm water my hands are freezing

If you are a lover of all things ramen Hokkaido is one of the original homes of miso ramen with a rich tangy

And often with dairy products such as butter with it typically with a bit of corn on as well and whilst Hokkaido

is famous for miso ramen, different regions across the prefecture

Also specialize in their own variants here in Hakodate for example the local specialty is shio ramen literally salt rather

the two most popular flavors of ramen in Japan are miso and shoyu my favorite shoyu this is salt ramen

Shio ramen I don't think I've ever had it before actually because it's quite rare to be found throughout Japan But in Hakodate that is the kind of

So Chris accidentally ordered two portions

He thought it was a just a big big bowl now. So this is two people's worth

Yeah, so typically they get two people so it just means two noodle in one bowl

But they actually need two bowls both fit multiple broth

Compared to shoyu I kind of like it actually it's very really light

So typically like what you have shoyu miso or now salt

I guess this salt was obviously the lightest taste mmm miso

shoyu being more heavy a lot more fatty - this is very very clean

Clean taste very smooth in the the broth is pretty good, but it's not quite strong enough in flavor to me

I like a nice kind of rich shoyu flavor however the star of the show here is this nice fatty

and magical I feel like I could write a song about how much I like this pork. That's the star of the show

That is the reason I would order this again

Do you think that you can actually eat both?

if I don't drink the soup, Let's just see buddy. let's see if you can do it

Last stop on our trip is another warm dish. That's particularly popular in the winter months and has its roots in Sapporo.

It'd be a crime to come to Hokkaido without trying soup. Curry so on a cold winter's day such as this

There's one dish that you need when you're in Hokkaido, and that is curry soup. You probably know that in Japan

Curry is really popular this kind of thick curry that goes with rice and usually you get pork but in Hokkaido

They have a soup and I'm gonna let Chris take over because he's just been speaking to the shop owner

And he's an expert on curry soup now. So Chris tell us about curry soup

So, talking to their owner a lady of this restaurant

And she said the main difference between soup curry and regular curry in Japan is that

First of all, they don't use flour in this soup curry so the taste is very very light. It's very very easy to go down

But this only this wasn't very something that is way in the past this was something that started 40 years ago around give or take
