Brazilian Caldo de Ovos Recipe:
Recipe by Chef Christiano Campos
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• ½ yellow onion, chopped
• 2 tablespoons chopped bell pepper (any color)
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon minced biquinho chili pepper (or another mild chili pepper)
• ¾ pound (350 grams) lean ground beef
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 beef bouillon cubes, crumbled
• 1 teaspoon urucum (or paprika)
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 4 tablespoons tomato extract
• 8 cups (2 liters) water
• 4-6 eggs
• 1 cup (125 grams) fine grind cassava flour
• Juice from ½ of a lime
• 1 handful chopped cilantro (or parsley)
Directions:
• Mix the Worcestershire sauce, onion, bell pepper, garlic and biquinho pepper with the ground beef in a bowl and set aside.
• In a stockpot, heat olive oil over high heat, and sauté the ground beef. Reduce the heat to medium-low and allow to cook for about 5 minutes or until the beef has browned but is still moist.
• Add bouillon cubes, ground cumin, black pepper and urucum (or paprika) to the pot and stir, cooking for another 5 minutes or so, until most of the liquid from the beef and vegetables has evaporated. Add the tomato paste and stir to combine.
• Add 6 cups (1 ½ liters) of water and stir, removing any bits that may have stuck to the bottom of the pan with a spoon.
• Once the soup comes to a boil, lower the heat back to medium-low and break the eggs into the pot, slowly stirring with a spoon so they cook as stringy pieces. Ideally, you’ll have one cooked yolk per person, which is why we indicate a range of eggs in the ingredients list.
• In a bowl, mix the cassava flour with the remaining 2 cups (500 ml) of water, and with a spoon, slowly add the flour and water mix to the pot, stirring with each spoonful, so it does not clump. Keep stirring for another 5 minutes or until the flour has fully cooked. If you do get clumps, press them against the edge of the pot to disintegrate them. It’s okay if you’re left with some smaller balls of flour at the end, focus on breaking up the bigger ones.
• Turn off the heat and add the lime juice and chopped cilantro. Taste and adjust seasoning and salt. Stir and serve hot in bowls, topped with chopped scallions, or more cilantro, or add a spoonful of dried or roasted cassava flour or farofa for some crunch.

“My mother makes her khichdi with lots of love.”
I want khichdi with lots of love 🥺
Honestly same. It looked so good!
I’m not crying... it’s the onions
My mum too. Miss her....love to you.
Hehe, she really does! ❤️😁
Oki here🍚 consider this khichdi🥰
My son was hospitalized because he was vomiting and his seizures were out of control. We couldn't get him to eat or drink anything. We had an amazing neurologist that went home and cooked him khichri from scratch. He ate it up. Amazing doctor. Amazing food. What a blessing.
I love khichri. We make it with cumin, pepper and dry coconut ( dry roasted and powdered). This khichdi has had on a cold rainy day with papdums, other fries and hot rasam. If you are sick you don't add any spice except cumin, salt and little lemon if you wish.
Omg! What an amazing doctor! I hope that person keeps thier heart and is blessed in life!
@@akankshapatwari4167 Thank you for correcting my spelling and the difference between the two! I edited my comment above. ♥️
I'm from Brazil and I like so much the Ayurveda. I have kichari almost every week because of the easy way to have a good meal.
@@tjiloveconducting There really is no right in or wrong spelling. There are many versions of the khichri/ khichdi. The simplest version is just boil rice, moong lentils (moong Dal) together with salt and turmeric. Then add a tadka of little ghee with mustard seeds and Cumin.
I also make it with moong sprouts and rice. I soak the green moong sprouts the night before and then boil it with rice. I add veggies like carrots, beans, potatoes etc to make it nutritious and one dish meal. The tadka is important here. I add cumin seeds, crushed pepper and dessicated coconut with ghee. Sometimes I use fresh coconut for a change. My kids gobble this up. I am happy that they are eating veggies.
I think it’s a global thing to eat rice in a runny consistency when you’re sick
Not really. There are plenty of countries that traditionally did not have rice, or barely ate rice - with it only becoming available or popular as both international trade and the trade of food culture become faster and easier. Some people would look at that and ask why someone ruined the rice, while others might ask why you didn't just make the porridge with something like oats (or whatever grain is most popular/available there). I've heard of countries where porridge isn't even a concept at all, as well as some where a porridge was more a wealth than a health issue. There are, though, TONS of cultures with some kind of porridge, and rice is a super easy and popular grain for it in Asia and the Middle East (even in to a fair amount of Europe). Being from the U.S., I can tell you all rice porridges we have were (like most things in the U.S.) brought in by immigrants, and oatmeal is the MUCH more popular (for when you're sick or even just for breakfast). Some parts of the Southern U.S. prefer grits to oatmeal, but most of the U.S. just loves oatmeal.
@@VictoryNibbles true! I'm from Argentina, porridge isn't a thing here, and that way of cooking rice neither, here you'd say that the rice is def overcooked (probably kinda ruined too)
yeah, not really. In my country, you would eat warm soup, usually chicken soup when you are sick. For upset stomach, people usually eat potatoes cooked with the peel on and then peel them and slightly salt them.
@@Xia-hu my mom always cooked me rice with chunks of potatoes when i get sick as a child. I am 32 and i still crave it when i fall under the weather.
Or delicate noodle soup
“My Mother makes her khichdi with lots of love!”
Me: Lots of love is a very expensive ingredient what can i replace it with.
You make sense 🥺 I'm lucky in this department I guess.
Ok yeah this is deep
Yes, at this point my mum cooks just for the sake of feeding us and herself. We ran out of budget to buy 'with lots of love'
Dignity? Self-respect? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
My mother too
As a (half) Chinese person, thank you for showing people that century eggs aren't terrifying-and especially for eating them the way many people actually eat them, on top of congee, instead of just taking a big bite of one! I also want to thank you for the whole video. It's super interesting to see different "sick foods" from around the world.
as a full Indian person I loved congee and century eggs the first time I had it in To. i also like blue cheese
I'm addicted to century eggs... help
you know people might not like something don't you?
@@yeyosilver7067 Of course they know that. They very clearly said that they thank her for eating it the way it's commonly eaten, which seems to be less hard-hitting and more pleasant than the way people always try it. Duh.
Umm... as a heavy addict on century eggs I actually eat them by their own as snacks...
Honestly, can we commend the host for being so welcoming and not being way too overdramatic? She didn’t disrespect any one of these cultures and always acknowledged that it’s all just her own opinion and lots of others can like it, even if it might not be her favourite- much respect to her.
Yeah! I liked her too. Willing to try anything and excited to experience anything.
Great observation! I was thinking of that. She is very welcoming to different cultures and foods. It made me feel really well watching her video.
It's a large part of why I enjoy this channel, emmymade is a bit similar, shes always respectful of the food and the culture it came from
Yeah same, I subbed to her cuz of that
Armenia 🇦🇲 ❤️
Not many you-tubers tend to involve Armenia in trends / trying videos because it’s a small country that not many people know of however I just wanted to say … Thank you for sharing with the world one of our dishes.
❤️ 💙 🧡
Heeeeey, I’m American and I love Armenia, your guys’ sweet bread is to die for
My family is Assyrian we love Armenia ❤️
armenian food is great, my family makes it quite often
Honestly that soup looked great but I'm lactose intolerant and that much yoghurt when I'm already feeling sick just seems like a terrible idea XD. It's definitely something I'd suffer through the stomach pain of eating on a good day though!
@@asterismos5451 If you can get it, try coconut or soya yogurt, they are game chargers if you can't have milk! Best added off heat at the end of cooking like most dairy products.
I made the dal khichdi! I was feeling very under the weather (mentally) when I saw this video and I just knew that I wanted to make the khichdi. I already had everything, so I just whipped it up real quick. Let me just say, this recipe is definitely going into my rotation of repeated recipes. It's amazing how so much food is made out of such little amounts of ingredients, I was absolutely shocked. Anyways, I 10/10 recommend this if you're feeling sick or even just lonely.
Glad you enjoyed it! Try adding a little potato cut up and peas while cooking the khichdi. *chefs kiss*
I like the fact that she finishes the food right in front of you, instead of taking one bite and moving on. You can tell she's actually enjoying it
she dresses differently so I think she shoot each on different day. she could finish the food. a lot of people I see would do it in one setting which would have been too much food for one person to finish
Im more happy no food wasted
@@monthly101 agreed. She eats them as her proper meals daily and at the end of the week compiled the clips into a new episode. That's a very clever way of making RUclips videos while still enjoying a normal life.
I just wanna say that all the people featured did a great job representing their cultures.
Yeah and finally some good representation of how delicious century eggs are! It always makes me sad that they are always used as a food to be made fun of 🙄
Yeah! that was sooo cool!! I want more of that!!
Hmm
Yes !!! I wish to hear from more countries..around the world! 🙂
I am an Indian from South West coast of Karnataka, we usually have locally grown kaje boiled rice called as ganjee. Served hot with lots of starch from rice, lil bit of salt and a strong pickle to go with it, I like cut mango pickle. We usualy don't eat any spice and oil when we are not well.
I m from south to but from Andhra Pradesh
കഞ്ഞി 😁
@@minimathew4182 i don't know wt that means
@@saisrikothapalli I'm from kerala and it's called കഞ്ഞി or kanji in malayalam. Both ganjee, kanji all are just the same.
@@minimathew4182 got it
Honestly, in Brazil when someone is sick, we cook “ canja de galinha”, a dish make with sauce of onions, garlic, potato, carrots, parts of chicken and rice, all mixed. Looks likes a soup.
i was gonna comment this. i've never even heard of caldo de ovos
The way she pronounced cassava....I knew it wasn't a legit recipe.
True, instead of showing something that represent mostly of Brazil, she used one recipe from one state that represent only 3% of Brazil
Totally agree with the comments. She said is from a book she's writing, looked more like she's trying to promote her book than being truthful to our culture. "Canja de Galinha" would have made more sense.
Just because it doesn’t represent the south east it doesn’t make it a lesser option. A lot of which is presented here as a dish from a country is actually from a certain region, and I don’t see anyone else complaining about it. Brazil is big and very diverse!
As someone of Chinese-descent I appreciate how you judged century egg fairly without being immediately weirded out by the colour or scent.
If I remember right from when I tried it there was a very chewy consistency, which I didn’t expect in egg.
Honestly “chewy” was a term I’d use to describe a couple of the Chinese dishes I tried (Shanghai, Harbin, but my hosts were mostly out of Beijing). It’s not a consistency that we use a lot in American cooking.
I am looking to try century egg, how would you recommend for a first timer to try it? I mean in a dish or just on its own.
@@aliciaholder3759 I grew up with the century egg so I can say that you commonly eat it with a bowl of rice and other dishes. Honestly it fits well with all east asian foods. I don’t recommend to eat it separate if you want to try it out for the first time. I hope this helps ;)
Enjoy!
@@aliciaholder3759 I'd definitely suggest easing into it with the century egg congee like the video. If you then feel adventurous, it is often also served as a salad with soy sauce
@@Justanotherconsumer Huh there is absolutely no chew to it whatsoever. It like falls apart on contact with you teeth, lol. It's literally impossible to chew a century egg. Are you sure you aren't confusing it with something else
As a brasilian, I would say that the major sick food (by far) is the "canja de galinha": soup made of chicken litlle bits, chicken stock, rice and lots of spring onions, onions, garlic and flavor!
Exactly! I'd love to see some canja de galinha :)
Yup! I've never seen anybody eat anything else as a "sick food", it's always the good old canja
Yeah... canja is the major sick food I know...
Exactly!!!!
I was expecting canja as I’m sure it’s traditional all over Brasil as a sick food. But it’s nice to see something different.
This was so interesting! Here in Finland I would say the "traditional" sick food is bilberry/blueberry soup. It'a a thick "soup" made from bilberries/blueberries and sweetened with sugar and it's supposed to be eaten warm.
Sounds delicious!
Sounds similar to cold cherry soup
Say whaaaaaat? Very different from the ones in the video. I would never imagine something sweet as a sick food.
Almost the same in Sweden, if you have troubles that include vomiting or stomach issues that makes you lose fluids. It helps with the latter, at least, because of properties of blueberries. If I remember correctly. Helps stabilize your stomach...
Was given blueberry soup every time I hade a stomach bug as a child. I cant eat/drink it to this day becuse I associate it with vomiting and an upset stomach. Makes me nauseous just by tasting it, if not already by seeing it or smelling it.
I have had the Swedish version and it's lovely, would definitely recommend even as someone who had never had a sweet soup before.
Being a Malaysian, I've always thought everyone has porridge when they're sick, but that's not the case. It's so diverse, and I love how you contacted people from the countries themselves for the recipes, it makes for a more authentic experience of the food.
My parents from Malaysia, we always got rice porridge when sick! They call it “moy”? it’ll always be the best comfort food for me. I make my fiancé make it for me when I’m sick lol.
Nasi Lemak for me
I do find it interesting that all of our sick foods internationally are basically soups. It’s a great reminder that we may have different cultures but we are all the same.
Lori, I thought that was cool too…there is nothing like a warm bowl of food made with love when you are sick or it’s cold outside, etc
It makes sense, since soups are easy to eat.
In my country we have this hard candy called Hašlerky, which are black pastils (colored with plant based activated charcoal) and full of herbal extracts.
They are good when you have sore throat or just this weird feeling before the soreness
You need a lot of water in your system to heal, regardless of the cause of the illness. Soups are an easy way to ensure you get it.
Soups or porridge, or in some of these cases, kind of a cross between a soup and a porridge.
My mum would just give me cheese puffs when I had the stomach flu lol. Or if it was really bad, I would have to drink juice with salt added to it, ugh.
"..with cumin, cloves, and _lots of love."_ Awww! (Moms everywhere..)
So true❤️
@@felixxfeliciss Omg you're the person who made it, looks so good! I have a question, is Khadi a sick food too? I've seen it being made with buttermilk
@@qkbarbland4332 I didn't make the recipe, it was Beryl 😁 I just did the description part.
Umm no, kadhi is not a sick food. It's a side dish made with sour yoghurt, chickpea flour and spices and eaten with rice or roti.
It’s interesting how full of spices a lot of them are. Here in Germany the general “sick food” tends to be much blander, like porridge, mashed potatoes or chicken broth.
I think it might have something to do with spices opening up the sinuses? I might be wrong but I imagine it'd be pleasant if one has a head cold.
@@vincentgeiszler3749 that makes sense. I might try it the next time I’m sick.
actually khichri is super bland, with only cumin and turmeric, both healing
@@nandanbhardwaj8464 neither cumin nor turmeric would be considered bland in Germany. 🙈😅
@@glockenrein love this cute worldwide exchange.
Would you just have bread and potatoes as per normal, or is there a specific way these things are served and prepared? Toasted / untoasted, plain / with butter etc.
I love Indian cuisine! They're so flavorful! Mastering that one cuisine is a paradise for vegetarians/vegans!
Well, I'm Brazilian and I was expecting "canja de galinha" (Brazilian chicken soup) when I read the title. But...great choice and great video.
When i read the description of the video, I also thought of Canja de galinha. But it was a great and not obvious choice!!
Yeah me too
Me too
Actually that was a great choice, since I'm brazilian and I didn't know that, so it is good for us brazilians know a bit more about our country too (it is a popular dish in Maranhão she said, which is very far from here, so good to know that).
I thought the same, when sick that's nothing like a good old canja de galinha
This is the literally LITERALLY the first time ever hearing a non-Chinese ethnic person liking century eggs. Very well put about the similarity with cheese.
I’m from Brasil and love it! Definitely not dor everyone though. I think it’s yummy 😋 hahaha
I love century egg but then I’m Singaporean. Yummy with congee.
@@LuahFontana I am brazilian also, and I also liked it when I tasted it.
@@luisatol and here in Indonesia we are more familiar with salted duck egg (taking weeks to make). How far is the difference in taste/texture/anything?
@@eigengrau7698 really different, you gotta try it for yourself
Wow, that was really interesting. I never thought about sick food as something tasty. In Italy when people are sick you would give them soup or boiled rice or other really bland things. I think the difference is due to the different concept of sick food. Here like in other European countries, the idea is that, when you are sick (more specifically when you have stomach or intestinal problems), you should eat something hot and more digestible, therefore without seasoning
In my family when I am sick I usually eat toast, saltines, ginger ale or chicken noodle soup. Depends.
I had never felt so much suspense from watching a stranger on the internet try a new food item before hahaha (century egg), especially with such a big bite! I'm so happy you like it! Really cool that you were super present with the experience too. I appreciate that 100%. :)
Oh, just got to the end of the video: Thank YOU for the positivity! Your honesty, kindness, and curiosity shines through, and it's so so refreshing.
Legit the same brand of Ochazuke I grew up with. From what I understand, Ochazuke used to be a dish you serve guest, subtly hinting to them that they overstayed their welcome. It was rice and tea, which was a bare minimum of what you have in the house, basically saying “yo, you ate all my food, I got nothing left to feed you”
ぶぶ漬け！It’s a Kyoto thing, or so it’s said. At least they kindly feed you before asking you to go home 😂
i feel like everyone uses that brand of お茶漬け, unless you want to be fancy and make it from scratch www
i personally never got given instant pack お茶漬け when i was sick (my mom or grandma always made me おかゆ) but it’s interesting seeing that people have different cultures even when you’re from the same country
I would not want to navigate a Kyoto dinner. If they ask about your watch, it means go away, I hear.
Here, if you are fed good plain food and given a drink in a Mason jar, it is sure that your host feels no need to put on a false front and truly loves and is totally at ease with you.
I didn’t realize I was supposed to eat kichdi when I was sick. I have designated rainy days as kichdi weather 🤣
And saturdays too
Khichdi + mango pickle the best combo for rainy days!❤❤
Ikr, it’s just my basic pooja day food when I’m vegetarian
I love khichdi so much it's my go to food for almost every dinner...like 2-3 times a week..easy and quick to make and healthy even if eaten at late night.
That's my association too! Rainy days ==> no shopping == >eat whatever you have in the pantry--like rice, dal, spices, and ghee...
My Dad's family is Jewish, and he taught me how to make the classic chicken soup with matzo balls. It's my favourite to this day, though the households I live in all really enjoy congee for an upset stomach. We like it with shredded chicken breast, green onion and sometimes an egg mixed in. This video was so cool! I'm going to try that Brazilian recipe!
Lmao I'm literally eating khichdi right now. I got my covid vaccine so I was feeling a little tired and my mom made khichdi to help. It's definitely the best.
I really love how non-judgmental and self-reflective she is. Trying foods from other cultures can make people so wary, and too often folks who are outside the culture will say thst a dish is 'weird' or 'gross'. It makes me so happy to see that across her videos she never uses that kind of language, and always seems to end on a reflective note where she addresses the apprehension people may have in a positive way.
Well, I had a talk with my assistant aka my husband who helped me get the "moong" daal. He has since been terminated, we won't be using his expertise any longer. haha But also I want to say again a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone involved and if you are interested in being involved, I have been posting on my instagram and on the YT Community page when episodes are coming up that involve you all! :)
Hi Beryl, pleased to have seen India's name in the list. One correction though, that's chana dal and not moong dal. :)
I did noticed the "moong dal"😂😂 , I thought I was wrong till I checked this comment
Beryl I think he did that purposely because he isn’t getting enough screen time so I hope you give him more screen time and he will not disappoint you
@@kathanshah8305 hahahah he doesnt want more screen time but i'm gonna try nonetheless
@@BerylShereshewsky Hie Beryl!
Even though that's chana daal, you could still make some banging regular daal with it to have with rice. You could do a few recipe researches, because chana daal is actually just so yummy, especially with perfectly balanced spices and a dollop of ghee. Thinking about it is making my mouth water! OMG 😆😆
Alternatively, you could also make some stuffed poori with it. Its incredibly fatty and so unhealthy and absolutely delicious! Paired with green chutney, its one of the best things to have on a cold winter day ❤❤
i’m a writer who likes to word build a lot, and i take some pride in the fact that i’ve developed my worlds religions, culture, clothes, homes, stuff like that, but this channel totally helped me further develop the cuisines in my worlds! so thank you Beryl, and everyone. : )
The Filipino version of congee is lugaw, which we also eat when we’re sick! It’s a rice porridge, but typically cooked in chicken broth or cooked with chicken and ginger as the main flavors! People usually add their own toppings as well! The most common would be crunchy fried onion and some scallion, but some sausage or bacon or a fried egg are also common toppings! Basically a complete meal :)!
Never heard about this "Caldo de ovos" here in Brazil, but as the girl said is very different betwen states aroud here. Brazil is a big country i dont even knew that we had "special" foods for sick ppl. Here in the South we just eat chiken soup. But this "Caldo de ovos" Looks absurdly good
Ainda que seja bem diferente, achei que canja de galinha fosse a bandeira das comidas desse tipo aqui no país
Eu sou do RN e minha vó fazia um caldo com ovos que ela chamava de "caldo da caridade". Eu não sei bem com era feito, mas não era como o do vídeo que pra mim ficou bem semelhante a um pirão (na textura). O que eu sei é que ia ovos tal qual mostrado no preparo do caldo de ovos do vídeo, mas na base dele não ia carne, acho que apenas a farinha de mandioca pra encorpar um pouco, cebola, pimentão, tomate, alho e coisas assim (provavelmente refolgados), e acho acho que no tempero ia cominho com pimenta do reino tb (aqui é bem comum comprar os 2 já misturados). E coentro no final. Não sei mesmo como é o preparo e tudo que ia dentro. Era a comida pros que estavam doentes e tb pros ressacados kkkkkkk
Minha sogra não é daqui e já fez um que se assemelha e ela chama de cabeça de galo. Diz que são a mesma coisa. A receita varia um pouco entre cada família, imagina então entre regiões já que o país é tão grande ^^
Mano aqui em sp é canja
@@DileneAMB nossa! É idêntico ao caldo da caridade que minha avó fazia aqui no Ceará! Engrossado com farinha de mandioca! Mas aqui ela fazia era pra evitar ressaca em fim de festa! Kkkk é bem nordestino msm!
Eu acho que em alguns locais pode ser conhecido como cabeça de galo, mas onde eu moro a gente não coloca carne mas o resto é tudo igual.
I am from São Luís, Maranhão, Brazil. And I can assure that the “caldo de ovos” (egg’s soup) is very accurate in this video. It felt amazing to watch it, also because of all the other kinds of food from amazing cultures!
Totally agree!
same!
sou de São Paulo mas criada por mineiros e nunca comi caldo de ovos, sempre como canja ou sopa de músculo mesmo mas parece interessante. próxima gripe vou testar rs
Beryl just nails it, watch her video about worldwide hot dogs, she made an amazing "molho de cachorro quente" and explained it very well where it came from. Her videos are very well researched.
eu achei que ficou grosso demais pra um *caldo* mas mesmo assim parece gostosao
This is what I have always believed the internet was for!!! To UNITE us, and teach us about our world!!! Thank you for these videos!
Beryl: *tastes century egg* Woah... this is actually up my alley.
Me: *TEARFULLY NODS ALONG* yessss it's the best congee topping ❤️
I just saw "Brazil" in the title, and now im here
That's so Brazilian hahahaha.
me too
Todos nós amigo, todos nós kkkk
Pseee kkkk
And yet the Brasil dish is so disappointing. I have never even heard about it.
E ainda assim a receita do Brasil me deixou super desapontada hahaha nunca ouvi falar dessa comida ??? Ela parece deliciosa, mas uma canja de galinha era o esperado
beryl has a lot good words to describe the food she might like better or the least of her favorite, but she is adventurous and know how to respect every culture.
You won’t find a disparaging review ever everyone’s food and culture should be respected and there are always positives!!
They only try time tested dish, usually they r good in taste this is why accepted so much
I wish you can say “ah, I don’t like it” if you truly don’t like something. It’s perfectly fine not to like every dish if you truly don’t like it.
@@ingleward why do you want me to not like something so much?
@@ingleward first u invite them to give their recipe to taste it, and then say its not nice upfront. Where r ur manners?
See this is just a well curated list of stuff I can make when I don't feel like cooking for hours. 😂
Edit: also I like the taste of century egg but not the texture so If you want something similar but not exactly the same I recommend a poached egg marinated in a mix of red miso, soy sauce, hot water, and garlic. Plus you can make the eggs a night or two before and let them marinate!
In Vietnam we have something called "cháo trứng" when we don't feel well. It's basically just rice with runny texture (you can blend it or just cook rice with a lot of water to get that consistency) and mixed it with fish sauce, a beaten egg, and sliced perilla. The dish is light and creamy and refreshing for those who got sick, but you might feel different when you are not sick at all, or only i feel it that way lol
would you be willing to share a recipe for it? i can’t find any online
I'm Japanese and we don't eat ochazuke when you're sick, instead we eat okayu which is porridge just plain or with umeboshi if you'd like. I never seen eating ochazuke with shrimp because you might want to avoid seafood when you're sick. However, it looks good so I might try it.
Yeah, my Japanese friend once told me that people usually ate ochazuke when they were hungover haha
@@addie2816 Exactly! ochazuke is more likely a hangover cure. I know in Kyoto, Osaka people like their ochazuke by simply just Kombu ( salted pickled kelp ) and Brew Hojicha ( roasted tea - no caffeine) into cold leftover rice. Some add Pickled plum umeboshi too.
Yes grew up with okayu in Hawaii.
@@KasumissG Considering that this was something he was given as a kid when he was sick, this reads as a pile-on.
Yeah, “okai” in Kobe dialect. Rice porridge (something like the Singaporean entry here), made with extra water, salt and umeboshi- pickled plum. So comforting!
South Indians have “congee” as sick food.
That's true. Although I'm averse to calling it as Congee, but rather as Kanji(pronounced as "Kan-yi" in Malayalam) since the origins are seemingly Tamilian and it traveled across Asia with the Tamil King Conquests.
@@kiranv2085 Wait, Congee=kanji? I just realized that,
In kannada it's called "Ganji"
@@rakshithym9701 isnt ganji underwear? XD
Right! We eat the runny rice with pickled raw mango. Kanji or pej..here in Goa
My grandma and mom always made me green tea over rice when I was sick, or just wanted some comfort food on a cold afternoon when I came home from school. I LOVED it soooo much🥰 I 100% forgot about this dish and I’m sooooo thankful you just reminded me! I’ll be making this all winter 💙
This has been one of my favorite episodes. I love hearing from everyone around the world and their cuisine. Such a good one! And thanks to all those that shared with us!
How about some native dishes that are still eaten today! Like Native American, Aztec or Mayan, Aboriginal Australian, etc.
Yes! Fry bread, three sisters soup, so many options.
@@Puzzlingitout fry bread came into existence when the natives were confined to the reservations/nations and they didn't have access to their own tradition food supply from their native lands. They started using the ration they were supplied by the colonizers. They have pre-colonization cuisines and post colonization cuisines :/ 😢
@@jannuzijannuzicharlescharl3260 thanks for sharing 🤗
During covid I've been looking more for native american recipes too. Gonna make with my friend whose grandma was full cherokee
Good request and I would like that too 😀.
Btw most of these dishes will be of natives from respective countries as well but modernized.
I want to see tribal food from the thousands of tribes from India and 100 tribes from China as well 🤗
@@anugrahsaxena3993 you are very correct. It wasn’t a natural or traditional cuisine, it was one people hoped they could survive with after lands lost, family lost and many other horrors. It’s why a lot of chefs who do have native restaurants won’t include it (there’s many other options as well) I mentioned it because for many, including myself it does have good memories now. It reminds me of powwows and family times and is still eaten (sometimes not always for the best with the diabetes on the reservations) but it is a good food. It also showed how our ancestors were able to take next to nothing and make something and survive.
I am half Japanese, and I think I've never met a Japanese person making their own ochazuke 😂 everybody uses an instant pack! I personally add ginger slices too. Also a great hungover food!!
Same I agree 😆
I love the variety of foods and cultures! I also like how you had people present their own recipes!
I just found your channel a few days ago and I've enjoyed watching your videos. Really appreciate that you get people from the country the food is from to explain it, it adds a great deal of authenticity. I'm also glad to see the positivity towards the century egg- esp as there's so many videos on youtube of western people trying it by eating the whole egg at once with no accompaniments and then go on about how gross it is and that they find it weird anything eats it- but I appreciate how respectful you are of other cultures and the effort you put in to get the dish right :)
wow, I'm Brazilian and neve heard of that recipe... but then again as Poliana mentioned, Brazil is huge! it's like a culture made up of many cultures.
From what I've recently learned, it's a mash of a lot of cultural origins there, too. Being from the U.S., I'd normally heard we'd had the market cornered on being the 'cultural melting pot of the world' (even from people from other countries around the world); then I recently learned that your country actually has us even beat in some regards. It's always cool to learn new stuff like that.
Luckily, I'd also learned more than a year ago how good Pão de Queijo is.
Aqui no nordeste é bem comum, na paraíba a gente faz sem carne, é chamado de cabeça de galo
In the northeast part of brazil, this dish is very common, in the paraíba state we make without the meat and we call 'cabeça de galo' (Cock's head).
me too, im from Sao Paulo state. Never heard of this dish
I'm portuguese and my mom sometimes makes a fish version of this, but she calls it farinha de pau.
I'm so surprised you made caldo de ovos. It was the first dish I thought of when I read the title of the video, but I would have never imagined you would do it since it's only consumed here in the state of Maranhão and it's pretty unknown to the rest of Brazil. This is one of my dad's favorite dishes and it brings me a lot of affective memories. Great research and reproduction. Congratulations!
Acho que no NE todo, pq aqui no CE a gente tem bastante tbm
Aqui no Piauí também é muito comum, toda padaria tem... Inclusive a gente costuma comer com pão francês e é uma delícia 🥰
Gente, não sabia. Várias pessoas que vem de outros estados pra cá dizem nunca ter ouvido falar em caldo de ovos. Por isso achei que só fosse consumido aqui no Maranhão. Mas deve ser um prato típico do Nordeste inteiro mesmo.
Maranhenses, assemble!
Aqui em Cuiabá-MT é bem comum tomar caldo de ovo em qualquer época, vende em alguns bares, restaurante, mas nunca pensei em comer doente, normalmente aqui tem uma sopinha ou uma canja de galinha nesse caso, mas caldo de ovo é maravilhoso em qualquer situação, AMOOO ahsuahshahsha
AAAH IM SO HAPPY CALDO DE OVOS APPEARED?! Is not very common around the country but im happy something from my place is here, glad you liked :DDDDD IT LOOKS GREAT TOO!!! ;D
thank you for being so respectful with all the food you tried! none of the 'eww look at this texture' kinda thing. reason why i love watching you, thank you for being so open minded ♥
i dont see any Armenians in these comments and i just want to say how happy i am to see our cuisine represented here! Thank you Beryl and Sona!❤️
Honestly I clicked the video the second I saw Armenia in the title. My family is so disconnected from our culture due to the genocide that Im excited at any opportunity to learn about it.
@@kayanechilds aww that makes me sad. yes, use every opportunity you can to learn more about our homeland, and you’ll fall in love with it
I’ve been scrolling looking for another Armenian-this was the first comment I found! I’m glad there is some representation because I don’t ever really see anything about Armenia anywhere on RUclips. I was so excited to see this video and see who was in the comments I could connect with
Sending love 💖
@@amanda.a.m hi Amanda jan! glad we found each other. much love from the motherland😘
I’m Brazilian and I think I’ll try this yogurt soup of yours.
Kichdi is the healthiest option for breakfast. Kichdi is served in some temples as Prasadam. In Karnataka Bisi bele baat, Tamilnadu Pongal similar recipes to Kichdi.
Feast on a plate - that's Bisi bele baat in my mind
In Telugu States it is kattu pongali
I only tried bisi bele bhat in my college canteen in another state and it's awesome!!
We have kanji ( a rice porridge )here in Kerala
No, it doesn't suit my stomach. I won't say it healthiest.
I feel like sick foods vs pop food is one of the best ways to understand traveller vs tourist vibes. Trying out the sick foods of a country really gets you to understand how people actually like their food and what makes them comfortable. And when you factor in that many large countries have dishes that are extremely region specific lets you understand the history and culture of the place.
Great work as always Beryl
Wow this was such an interesting segment. I never thought about what people ate when they are sick in their home countries. Thanks for this insight
As a south Indian from kerala, we have "kanji"(plain rice with a lot of rice water) with "payar"( green gram with coconut, spices) with pappadam and pickle(lemon/mango/garlic/fish/dates...any type of pickle will do)
We make even if we're not sick and we make podi-ari kanji when we're sick (in my family)
I was expecting this for the Indian dish
I just realised "kanji" sounds like "congee" which is kind of cool!
I'm from Western India/Maharashtra and same, but it isn't only for sick times.
@@alenanela1743 yes - and it is pretty much congee!
This Singaporean approves of the congee! I don’t like century egg though. Try it topped with fried anchovies and a salted egg. Yums!
oooo I have some leftover anchovies from a Malaysian dish I made!!!
@@BerylShereshewsky I stir in a regular egg instead. Makes the congee extra silky
you can also drizzle some sesame oil to make it extra fragrant ;)
Ikan bilis with congee are great. Also die die must try with peanuts and an ice cold beer.
Pork or chicken floss with it, too.
Maybe a shot of Maggi chicken essence!
@@BerylShereshewsky Sounds like you had nasi lemak 😁
Hi Beryl! LOVE your videos, have marathoned as many as possible over the last few days as I only found you a week ago! LOVE your fresh outlook on life, and your humour! You make me LOL every vid, which makes me very happy! Thanks for being you and being here when I pop onto YT! Ps I'm from New Zealand!
I really cannot tell you how happy your videos make me. The respect and care you show to all the cultures and traditions is so refreshing. I find myself smiling through every single video.
Mom: We are having Khichdi tonight
4-yr old me: *glares at sick grandma*
hahahahaha
OMG!!😂😂😂😂
But I love Khichdi!!
Any mushy food in general..
I loooooove mush
LOL 😂
Similar exchanges occurred in my house growing up, except it was chicken noodle soup and a sick little brother 😂
I'm from Tamil nadu, which is a state in southern India..we eat conjee as 'sick food'. Sometimes rasam rice (its like garlic,tomato clear soup mixed with rice) too.
Nothing can beat Rasam , whenever my entire family is down we would eat cognee but I don't like that so I would eat rasam and Bam... I feel really good after that.
Rasam rice (or pepperwater rice) with greens and chicken chettinad *chef's kiss*
Yes
We Starts with congee and idly at first as the fever getting better we eat soft Cooked rice with rasam
In Karnataka also we eat "Ganji" 🙌
So glad to see armenian cuisine being represented 🥲💜
Hi Beryl, your videos are slices of niceness for me too! I come here when I'm stressed and I just want to thank you for making these videos
i'm loving the way shivani gave so much info about khichdi, in like a good way that made me happy
Thankyou so much 🙈
That was not moong daal though
@@Yaarun_ Beryl already addressed that in the comments.
@@Yaarun_ haha i also thought the same
Beryl, too many steps for the congee. You could’ve done everything in the instant pot all at once. The rice is broken up during the cooking process, you didn’t need to do that part manually. Half an hour with the right amount of liquid in instant pot and you’re good to go. Just for next time. 👍
This was the first video I ever saw from this channel (recommended by youtube) and I fell in love with what you do! Food and drink stories are what bind us together, across all kinds of different cultures and experiences. Share a meal with someone and they will be part of your life in ways you will remember always. Revisiting now as a subscriber who never misses an upload, and what you have created here is amazing, and I am glad to be a tiny little part of it!
You show us foods to widen our understanding of the world, and all the while, you are delightfully open and somehow very present with those of us watching you enjoy. I love how your eyes look to one side every time you’re trying the first bite. This was delightful!
The first time I had "century egg" was when I was helping to care for a Vietnamese toddler (I'm a homecare nurse). Grandma lived with the family, and often would offer me breakfast. One morning it was a congee dish with shredded chicken ( I think), shrimp, egg, and what I thought were mushrooms. Grandma had just said there was "egg" in the dish. I got about halfway through my bowl when I realized the "mushrooms" I was eating were actually the "egg" she mentioned. Aha! I was put off for about half a second, but they didn't taste weird or anything. Actually, that turned out to be my favorite breakfast she would make. The little toddler got better, and I haven't worked with the family for a few years now, but I still miss that dish! I would love to learn how to make it!
It’s fun to see different sick foods from around the world. Interestingly enough I prepare my khichdi pretty different so it’s fun to see variation. I also only eat khichdi when I’m sick.
I eat every week xD
I eat when my mother makes chicken curry 🤣😋
I love it, I can it all the year with different vegetables
There is an Indian restaurant in Dubai that explains the main ingredients added in each region as the chef mixes them in. It is interesting because in each bite you get something different, almost like a tour around India in one plate.
It also is interesting because both my husband and I associate it with comfort/sick foods from our respective countries, Koshari in Egypt and lentil stew in Spain.
I make it as a end to an all day fasting, when we do fast. I am South Indian, so we don’t usually have khichdi in our repertoire, so I learned it from watching different videos and it’s absolutely delicious and a one pot meal with veggies and loads of ginger.
My heart beat a little faster when I found out congee was among the dishes. I lived in Malaysia as a teenager and congee was not just a sick food but also a breakfast food/comfort food. I absolutely love it and my daughter grew up on it whenever it was chilly or when she wasn’t feeling well - minus the century egg because they’re almost impossible to get. So in our family, a Southeast Asian sick food has nestled itself in the Belgian countryside and is there to stay.
The version I make has broth or stock, ginger, a dash of sesame oil, some times some 5-spice powder, maybe a little garlic, and depending on what we feel like or what’s in the house, fish, chicken, or salted pork. We never blend the rice, just double or triple the rime normal rice would need in the Instant Pot.
I recently served congee to my boyfriend because he wasn’t feeling well. He gobbled it up. Said it was exactly what he needed. I think it was the combination of a warm dish, the easy eating, easily digested starch and protein and the ginger.
Also an interesting fact about kichidi dish in India is that it is usually baby’s first solid food...a simple kichidi of rice, moong daal, turmeric & ghee mashed up or blended is usually given to them when they are ready for solids...as they grow older more veggies and mild spices are introduced in the dish. Super healthy and easily digestible for tiny tummies.
I love how Beryl describes her experience when she taste anything, her description or flavors is super sweet and how kind and respectful she is towards different cultures.
My mum makes a Greek soup called avgolemono it’s a creamy chicken soup thickened with eggs, and served with rice and more lemon juice. This is probably one of the most comforting soups I can think of.
And lapas(λαπας) ! Overcooked rice with lemon!
That sounds delicious 🤤
I love that soup!!! I came across a recipe for it a few years ago and thought it looked interesting (I’m not Greek at all) and now it’s one of my favorites. I highly recommend it!
I agree. This is the soup I crave the most when I’m not feeling well, but I like it with orzo instead of rice.
My go to recipe when I have no energy and no ingredients!
Any Japanese person will tell you that the most common sick food is bland plain rice porridge (runny rice) without anything on it
Yup! My mom used to make that for me all the time. Ochazuke is more comfort food for me.
Yeah, ochazuke is less common, especially in the kanto area lol
Same in India
I love this channel. My husband and I have to quarantine AGAIN so….. my logarithm came up with your channel, thank goodness. I always say that learning more about different cultures and places is the only way to get the people around the world truly together. Your doing great job 👏🏽 and I hope you keep doing it.👍🏽👍🏽🤩🤩
My mom - Here’s a mug of instant beef bouillon, a sleeve of saltines, and some 7-Up.
The soda has to be room temp too :)
don't forget the gatorade and ginger ale lol :)
This is for sure the USA sick meal, except mine was Sprite. Couldn't drink it for years without feeling the urge to vomit.
my mother was a big believer in bananas, toast, rice, and FLAT, room-temp ginger ale. I still like bananas and toast and rice, but ginger ale is something I'll only have when I'm really sick. and I don't let it get flat!
Chicken broth, saltines, dry toast, and ginger ale! Still have this when feeling ill
Beryl, since you're such an adventurous eater and you seem to like just about everything you've tried through this series, I'd be curious to hear (maybe after you've been doing the series for a while) what you've gone back and cooked again
That's a great idea.
I was curious about this too!!!
We want to know what makes the repeat club!
It's great that Poliana mentioned that it depends a lot on where from Brazil you are, our cosine has lots and lots of variety since we had so many immigrants from all over to world come and live here. I've lived in Brazil my entire life and have never heard of the Caldo de Ovos, my parents either make a rice soup with tomato, carots, potatoes and a protein (usually chicken breast), or they make a thick savory porridge with cornmeal and add in the eggs as you did with the Caldo de ovo, the last one is for when you have a tummy ache and are not supposed to eat lots of meat, since the egg protein is much easier to process. Loved the video, it's very interesting to see what people all over the world eat, and you look like you're have such a blast trying everything, makes me want to try it too! Keep up the great work.
Thank you for allowing others from around the country to share with us and explain why it matters to them.
I wanted to first thank you for including Armenia in this video; I’m so happy for the representation of my culture and I truly appreciate it ❤️ I also wanted to add-just for fun-that another famous dish that I grew up with (and hated, not going to lie) was called khash. It is made from boiling hooves (usually cow hooves) for hours. It makes a sort of bone broth. It is also a celebratory food; but, my family only made it for sick or injured people. We always believed it was on par with “magic” because a cousin of mine was in a terrible accident and was paralyzed. His mother forced him to eat khash several times a day for months and he recovered enough to rehabilitate himself through therapy and he was able to walk again! Of course, I can’t vouch for any potential medicinal properties of khash, but this story is circulated in my family constantly and I just wanted to share with someone who may be interested
Thank you again for this video ❤️
I'am a Brazilian who never had caldo de ovos. However, I'm pretty sure the cassava flour would make it even better. Cassava flour is better in pretty much anything, except for baking cakes lol
Moço ja comeu bolo preto? Feito de farinha de mandioca, rapadura e amendoim, é muitoooo gostoso, eu amo esse bolo, da sim pra fazer bolo de farinha de mandioca. Kkkkk
É mais comum aqui no nordeste, se tiver oportunidade experimente, garanto que é sensacional.
@@jakelinefontes3925 Esse não conheço não, mas gostei da descrição!
Eu já comi outros bolos feitos com farinha de mandioca, não achei ruim, mas pra mim é uma outra coisa, nem é exatamente um bolo haha
You never heard of philipino cassava and coconut cake ?
@@dieba9241 I don't know anything about Philippine food! But I'm not a great fan of coconut ☹️
I'm Singaporean and was excited to see Singapore featured here! Quite a number of people here (myself included) actually don't like the taste of century egg as it is a very acquired taste. Often the century egg is diced into smaller pieces and mixed in with the porridge, making it more palatable that way!
What a wholesome video. I was recommended this video. Now I want to try making all of these dishes. The Brazilian soup looks super interesting and the Japanese dish too.
How about showing us international "hangover foods"?
Eat lemon
@@commanderofkesariyaknights 😂😂😂
Eat pickle
@Jeremiah Fornshell ?? My friend. Simple remedies can work very well. Pickle, lemon, fermented dairy also, like kumis, kefir. But I make a soup named “solyanka” for hangover. There is also a soup named “khash” from caucuses area that also helps greatly, but preparation is more challenging.
@Jeremiah Fornshell I'm from Europe so our mcdonald's is a bit better quality than in north america but it's the only thing that works for me, the right balance of salt and a nice cold coke
I’m Brazilian and I was so expecting “Canja de Galinha”!! I was excited about it hahaha I’ve never heard about this other dish, but Brazil is so rich in culture and different flavors, so that’s ok!
Canja nunca falha!!
So happy I found this. I'm super interested in our connection between food and each other. Your video popped up because I have been watching a lot of travel and cooking shows (still in full isolation as I have an autoimmune disease).

Your channel makes me feel so happy. It’s like a piece of GBS survived. Thank you so much for pursuing this channel, it’s turning out great! I can’t wait to keep seeing content from here :)
Why do I feel like your whole channel is a collection of PBS episodes? I love it! The sense of community across the world and how intimate food is with each of our cultures! Your approach is perfect, and I can't wait for next week's episode!
What a positive and uplifting video. Thanks for sharing ☺. Very interesting too!
I’m Cuban and I don’t know if it’s a Cuban thing or just my family but when I was sick as a kid, especially tummy sick, my mom would make white rice with a fried egg on top and a lot of salt. It was super simple but also super delicious and it’s very nostalgic for me every time I make it. I also got lots of chicken noodle soup when I was sick, but the fried eggs and rice were what I remember eating when I felt the most sick
I'm indonesian, never seen anyone make rice porridge by blending the rice before. My mum just keeps cooking the rice until it gets to the correct texture.
Is that jayb🥺

@@speakofthedevil3216 hehehehe🤭 you too
12:35 I think the term is "fuller mouth feel", like, it's not a watery, runny soup, and the corn meal/cassava flour makes it heartier. The closest we have to that "sensation" here in the Philippines I think is with a noodle soup dish called lomi - it's basically egg noodles in a thick beef broth.
Yuuuuummm😍😍
i doubt about Lomi being a sick man's food.. its thick soup and thick noodles makes it difficult to digest
Dude... I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!! Please do more of these!!
Aww. Your smile when you take the first bite of the first dish. You look so cute and happy.
