Japanese Table Manners and how to use Chopsticks 〜和食の作法〜 | easy Japanese home cooking recipe

In this video, I am showing how to use chopsticks properly, several Japanese table manners including eight taboos when using chopsticks. The most important value in Japanese culture is “respect,“ so the Japanese manners are based on respect towards not only to other people but also on the lives (food) and the human work. In my Channel in other videos, I show step by step of alternative but authentic Japanese home cooking, which can be made with the ingredients that are easily available outside of Japan.
