Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast.
Mr. Takofurai, please tell us about your hot take.
I like to eat bread in the microwave rather than toasting it.
食パン?
食パン。
What is hot take?
ホットテイクは意見。
サクッとどう思うか教えてみたいな。
What's your hot take on 何々みたいな。
なるほど。
What's your hot take on Kendrick Lamar's new song?
Like it, hate it, I don't knowみたいなね。
お二人のホットテイクを教えてください。
私は食パンをトースターではなく、あえて電子レンジでチンしてふやかして食べるのが好きです。
I would say rather burnt side, relatively.
It's like a cracker.
No?
So I use the same one.
Aladdin toaster.
You do, right?
I have that too.
So when I do the toast thing, I do like 20-20.
240 is max.
Yeah, 240 is max.
240 is too fast for me, so 220.
And then do like 1.5 minute.
Or less than that.
So does that make a difference?
Like 220 and 240, really?
I don't know.
Like if I do 240, then you have to do it like more small time.
Small duration.
And that's kind of difficult for me to adjust timing.
Because it's quickly gone.
I see.
So I prefer like low heat and like see carefully.
Take the chance.
But like, isn't it better to do it higher?
Because it's softer still on the inside, but very crispy on the outside?
Yeah, yeah.
You're kind of wasting that 20 degrees.
Maybe, yeah.
Maybe.
How's your style?
My style?
My style?
Well, I want to say very, very crispy.
But in reality, what I actually do is just slightly, slightly crispy.
Okay.
Why?
Because it still leaves some of the softness on the inside.
03:02
Oh, you don't want that?
You want complete?
I want it.
Oh, you want it?
Because there's softness on the inside, I just lightly toast it so that the softness is still very much there.
I see.
I like that.
I like the contrast of like the outside and the inside.
I like that.
Yeah, yeah.
Right.
Do you prefer than like thick toast?
You know, you have like Rokumai Giri.
Yeah, I like the Hachimai Giri.
Oh, that's like a neutral one, right?
Like the usual one.
Isn't that like the most thin one?
You have like 10 Giri and 8 Giri and you have 6 and sometimes 4.
Yeah.
So my image, I thought 6 was like the most neutral, most bland one.
And then 8 is thin.
Oh.
And then 6 is thick.
4 is just outrageous.
Yeah.
I have no idea what they're trying to do.
Wait, yeah.
What's your...
To me like 8 is the standard.
8 is the standard?
Well, like 6 is the standard.
6 is like pretty thicker version.
Yeah, me too.
Yeah, and 4 is like it's too...
I've never buttoned 4.
What do you use 4 for?
I don't know.
Just, you know, maybe there are people who prefer that thickness.
Maybe.
Maybe at some cafe, like Morning Panju, that's thick.
True, that's thick.
Right?
And you do maybe Pizza Toast or...
Oh yeah, that's thick too.
Right, right.
That's thick too.
Yeah.
I can't understand soaking it in water.
That just ruins it.
The microwave.
Oh, the microwave.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I can't.
You can't?
I can't imagine doing that, yeah.
No.
Yeah.
The microwave.
Yeah.
My microwave broke the other day.
Really?
Not the other day, but like two days ago.
Yeah, the button stopped working immediately.
Suddenly.
Okay.
Yeah, I don't know why.
You can...
I can't...
I can press the start button, but the start button is like an automatic start.
Oh.
So I can't really adjust the time.
Okay.
Or like the watts.
Yeah, that's all I got.
Okay, so you have to like be in front of the microwave and like keep...
Yeah.
Carefully looking at what's going on inside.
Yeah.
Or just like set like a manual timer.
Oh, you can do that?
Yeah.
Oh.
No, like on my iPhone.
Oh, I see, I see.
Yeah.
Like two minutes or something.
That's all I got.
Right.
Right.
So...
What if you do the microwave first and then put it in a toaster?
Okay, that's more...
Now we're talking more like a human being.
I think...
Because I do sometimes do that.
Yeah.
Not for toasters, but like for example...
Like frozen foods?
Yeah, frozen food.
06:00
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.
Right, right, right.
I think that's very smart.
Yeah, like for the pizza.
For the pizzas?
Yeah.
That's a very logical approach.
Yeah.
Like you want it heated, like unfrozen on the inside.
Right.
Like the microwave does that very quickly.
Right.
And then sort of like crispy up the outside.
Yes, yes.
That's very logical.
Yeah.
Makes sense.
Yeah, absolutely.
But usually, chocopods are thin and very weak.
Right.
Right.
So you don't have to microwave it first.
Right.
You just...
The toaster will do it for you, so...
Yes, yes.
Yeah.
Your hot take.
My hot take.
Never just microwave it.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't do that.
I don't do that.
Yeah.
Right, right, right.
All right.
Thanks for listening, guys.
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
