Cornbread is supposed to be hard on the outside. That's the way it has been done since my great grandmother in Mississippi. You make it crispy to dunk in soup or chicken & dumplings. Or to mop up turnip/collard greens juice.
My sister told me that she worked for a Korean clothing store in Chicago and she took some greens, cornbread and chicken to work with her for lunch. She said that it smelled so good that the Koreans wanted to try some of it. She said that they paid her 200 dollars to cook a big meal for them! I will never forget that. lol
Exactly, they need real collard greens, black eyed peas, Mac and cheese, pig feet and ribs along with the corn bread and the chicken, the real American soul food 🐔🌽🍗🍞😋👍
Yes, but technically that's not really so food. That's more of an idea of what soul food may look like or taste to him. If he really wanted to make a video of real soul food, you have to use the right ingredients. Kale as a replacement for collard greens, is not greens. That dry looking biscuit is not cornbread. And when corn is usually corn on the cob...and fried chicken is definitely made different because we use completely different ingredients. That's more of "Seoul Food" not Soul Food. And also there is a big meaning behind that world
The problem is he's calling this authentic soul food. It would be like telling the kids were going to try authentic Mexican food and then giving them Old El Patio TV dinners.
I'm African American. Thank you for sharing positive things about our culture. Yes, soul food makes our special occasions like Sunday dinner with family and holidays special. We really don't follow recipes. The soul means it comes from the heart and talents of our grandmothers, mothers, and aunts.
Me immediately looking at the dry corn bread: "Oh no 😳." Producer: "It is difficult to get collard greens in Korea, so we've cook with kale instead." Me: "NOOOOOOOOO!!!! 😰"
Wasn't that cornbread a damn shame? Those were corn biscuits. Somehow, that child crossed a biscuit recipe with a cornbread recipe and came up with that mess.
Right?! I was like "now that's how you eat cornbread!!" Also to the girl that said she wanted a steaming bowl of rice with her greens, I was like "same!" 🤣
I love how the young man was so interested in learning about the history of Soul Food! 💜 Salute to him for slapping the greens on top of that cornbread without a prompt 👍🏾😂
@@mikapooh3329 true but no matter what you do it’s not the same flavor even though there are collard, mustard and turnip greens kale doesn’t have the same kick
@RoseGold Banks Yeah I hear u but I applaud them for trying to do their best w/ the ingredients available to them. That’s how Soul food developed. It’s not about cooking what’s desired. You just cook whatever u already have a put ya foot in it lol!
@@mikapooh3329 they could of made cabbage or fully cooked string beans and added turkey necks or turkey tails , the cornbread was unacceptable I mean the CSU cavity of it was an insult
“Collard greens” made with kale? Nah fam. Have them stop by my house after travel restrictions lift. That cornbread is a side dish for the type of people that put raisins in potato salad.
There are plenty of rice dishes that are eaten in soul food: peas and rice (Hoppin' John), red rice, and just the white rice that you eat with smothered oxtails 🤤 They could've have made those rice dishes to bridge that gap. Rice is an important part of African American cuisine, too.
I eat rice all the time last night with enchiladas I made and tomorrow I'm smoking some chicken and having dirty rice made from the chicken inards. They could've gave them all kinds of rice dishes
cornbread isn't even technically african american...it was a native american thing originally and every time any state in the US eats it...they should thank the Native Americans for that.
@@IDyce88 Half the stuff on here isn't even strictly soul food either, it's just general southern food. I doubt the green beans even were done in much of soul way much less the other things offered.
M7 S4i5l8v2a soul food is more the in the preparation and seasonings to make food in a way that makes you feel good. In essence, it’s an easy way to get fat. I love some good Mac n cheese though, and cornbread always hits. Shoutouts to my Native American brothers and sisters who put us on to that
funny you should say that. I live here in Korea from South Carolina. Its very hard to find a lot of the same ingredients from back home like collard greens and okra. I found a grower for okra and I have been in heaven pickling and freezing them for the winter. Now if only There was a better way to get some grits 😋 GMOs are banned here so fresh fruits and vegetables are outstanding and yes you can taste the difference. Telling my age here but a lot of food tastes like it did when I was a kid some 40 years ago.
Wanda Gaines How long have you lived in Korea? How do you like it there? I’ve heard certain produce is hard to find or a lot more expensive in Korea, like limes or avocado. Anything else that’s impossible to find there?
The cook did what he could do 🤣🤣. It’s extremely difficult to find these foods cooked in Korea. They’ll just have to try the real thing when they visit the US.
The boy had the right idea to eat it with the cornbread, that's how we eat it here! I really do wish you could experience real Black soul food since you guys showed a genuine interest T_T There's so many other foods within soul food I wish you could try, you'd love it!
I'm white and a cook from the south, and I've got to say... Oxtail stew! Love it. It sounds weird to outsiders, but it's like a better, richer, more delicious version of beef stew. If people are trying soul food for the first time, oxtail stew is an absolute must for the newbies.
I absolutely love dipping my corn bread whether it be with like steak and run it through the juices, or through the mashed potatoes it's always 100x better that way. And plus who cares if you're white/black/purple soul food is delicious no matter who you are Matt lol.
All you need is some fried okra, mac and cheese, and peach cobbler, and you're good to go. Kale tastes nothing like collards. I personally go for turnip greens over collard greens.
@@angelicaregine9621 I always use ox tail. It's really fatty, but I love it. My family not so much. If I'm cooking for others, I use neck bones or bacon. I also add a little pepper vinegar, which I make out of ceyennes that I grow.
@bensum9111 I remember my grandma use to do it with oxtails, honestly I want to try mine to make mine with it to see if I can pull up the same amazing flavor
The irony is that soul food was SO good that foods that were considered "poor people food" such as lobster, shrimp and crabs are now considered rich people foods.
It gets hard in a few days if air is allowed to get to it and dry it out. That being said, if you treat it as a mush/cereal and have it with milk, you can still get the great taste without the problems of it being dry and or hard.
I was like... Wheres the baked mac n cheese? Lol... Seen the corn bread... Never mind lol. But it was a great experience for the kids. And thats what matters.
When he put the “collard greens” with the “cornbread” he was really on to something💯 I love mixing the two😩 but I really wish they could’ve experienced real collard greens and cornbread
I died when he put the greens with the cornbread. Lol! Those kids know they were not getting the real deal. They kept asking "Who cooked this?" and she made it except the 'looks like' KFC bought chicken. They they all said they want to come to the states and try it. They want to experience the real thing. Hopefully one day they'll be able to.
@@jesus3300 I'm not buying that one. Soul food is about turning what you have into delicious food. I know damn well they have mustard and turnip greens. They put mustard greens in their kimchi! You can buy turnips in any market. It doesn't have to be collard greens. Not every black family eats collard greens. I never ate collards until I was 24 years old because my parents didn't eat them. Cornbread only takes a good recipe. It's not about the ingredients it's about the knowledge. They'd be pissed off if someone adulterated their food like that. Stop making excuses for willful ignorance. Do you know how many recipes and RUclips tutorials there are on cooking soul food? You need to come better than that with the excuses.
The man who put collard greens on cornbread said the African American background is heart-breaking so I mean He was right about the 2nd part so maybe the first part is great too. Edit: "It was nice to have American healthy foods" Oh no y'all didn't' give her real Soul Food huh
It definitely tells me that they had it explained a lot more deeply to them than what we saw, because what they said here didn’t even remotely insinuate that African Americans had/have a difficult time here. I’m guessing they gave some deep history, but to keep it from running 15 minutes, they cut it back. Notice they also never touched what I assume were the black eyed peas in the bowl in front?
The kale was the closest they could find to collards. Personally I could never eat kale. Taste nothing like collards to me. Growing up I may have eaten it only once and I threw up. Lol
While I appreciate the effort, as a Southerner I have to say, kale ain’t collards. Also, ham hocks over bacon, but that’s more of a personal preference.
@@juljasmah Ham and ham hocks ain’t the same thing. Ham hock is mostly connective tissue, generally smoked, and requires long cooking times to fully extract the flavor. Usually used in stews, soups, or, in this case, greens. In terms of ham or bacon in general, I’ll take bacon over ham.
@@mossyeyec5816 lol yall learned how to make soul food from your black maids and think its yall culture. Stop the bs. But black people all over the u.s make it because its our culture. Learn fucking history. Nobody labeling anything as ours you can literally google “soul food” and the definition will tell you its our culture. Yall considered our food “scraps” now all of a sudden you wanna claim it? Theres a difference between southern food and soul food. Yall eat mashed potatoes we eat yams. Yall eat green bean casserole and we eat green beans with smoked turkey necks /pork or greens. Yall really be tryin it. Dont come on here tryna tell black people we labeling everything as ours when its literally ours. Lol if you dont have culture then thats got nothin to do with us. Cry about it to ya meemaw
@@eightratsinatrenchcoat it's her opinion she is a black woman and she says soul food isn't good with out her aunty, mother or grandmother making it.......and I agree if I want Chinese food I want to real deal not some white or black people making my Chinese food same with soul food if I'm gonna eat soul food I rather have black people make it......smh🤦🏾♀️ respect people's opinions......and props to the koreans trying soul food at least they tried...
Lmao you right doe that cornbread be looking dry af I was like is dat a biscuit it looked nun like cornbread and they said it was hard nah bruh throw that whole tray away
Awww - this was so nice to watch... My 11 year-old has a BFF who is from Korea, plus we are in the Atlanta area so there is no shortage of Korean food, bakeries, and grocery stores.... We frequent them often, but I never thought to offer his friend and his mom (who has become my good friend) soul food... I honestly love Asian food so much, I wasn't sure if they would even be interested... Now, I will have to make some and invite them over - LOL! I use smoked turkey to season my greens - gives them the best flavor.
In many languages black is also used to refer to something of darker shade. Some languages don’t have words for “dark” specifically. Black is understood as dark.
The way we get our collard greens is going to someone who has a collard greens garden and get it from them. My mom puts turkey necks in her’s and it’s fire. Now fried chicken.....not everyone makes it the same way. Some put too much or not enough seasoning. That one y’all had didn’t look like it had enough seasoning. We buy the cornbread mix and let it bake in the oven. Everyone’s macaroni and cheese is different. Send these babies to the south for some real soul food.
@@charx9149 sweet cornbread is a regional thing lol. it just depends on where in the south you are. i like it both ways, and jiffy's great in a pinch but homemade is always better!~
This reinforces my desire to visit Korea with my 71 year old mother. We love soul food and she taught me how to cook as well as to try new dishes. She made me a foodie! I believe she would love Korean food. And this video also takes me back to cooking Thanksgiving for a number of my Asian friends about 10 years ago. Some of the dishes were soul food. I am happy to say that they loved their first experience with Thanksgiving and soul food!
@@prtybrneyez18 - OKAY. But if you cannot get collards in Korea, don't call the substitute by that name. That's madness. If it's kale, call it kale. You can't just turn a completely different vegetable into another one at will.
@@SpongeMPCGirl My mom did too. We always ate mixed greens. A combo of mustard, turnip, collard, kale to mix it up every now and then. I actually really like the kale collard combo. Thats how I make mine now.
Kale? Whew child.. 😔 They should of invested in getting someone that’s an expert in Soul Food because bae BAE it looked like you can build a house with that cornbread 🤣 . Better luck next time. But I love their reactions
Is it just my southern household that would have all of these, two more types of chicken, thicc baked mac n cheese, some sort of potato dish, AND rice?! We love our carbs 🥰🥰🥰
We have fried chicken, ranch seasoned fried chicken, and lemon pepper chicken, potato salad, pasta salad, collard greens, baked beans, baked Mac n cheese, pecan pie, etc. 🤤Imma miss all of it when I go to college 😫💔
THANK YOU FOR ATTEMPTING THIS!!! The young man had the right idea trying to eat the cornbread with the collard greens! Often times, my mom will eat just a big bowl of greens and some corn bread or a big bowl of black-eyed pease and corn bread. I’m sorry you had to have the store-bought chicken. If I were still there I’d totally hook you up. That store’s chicken is missing the crispy/crunchy skin. Thank you! Thank you for sharing soul food in Korea!❤️ Maybe in my next gift package mail out I’ll send you guys some canned collard greens and some bags of pease since they are very hard to get there. (I remember the struggle. ☺️) I’ll also try to get you my mom’s skillet cornbread recipe. It should be savory, not at all sweet, soft, and buttery even if you use a muffin tin. However, whatever you do, please do not use any boxed version of cornbread. The cornbread here seemed to be too hard and more like biscuits from what I can see. 😅 Culturally , we also do eat pigs feet (not me), blood sausage, sweet potato pie, banana pudding, fried okra, oven baked macaroni and cheese, chitterlings (not me), and turnip greens as well. I really want to see soul food shared with Koreans. I used to cook for my co-workers and students ALL THE TIME. They loved it and it surprised me, honestly, because I was new to Korea and didn’t know then even what common Korean foods there were so I didn’t know if any of it would taste good to them.
I LOVE collard greens and even kale - if the kale has coconut milk in the broth, oh yum! - but I have never eaten pigs feet, blood sausage, or chitterlings. I've heard of them, but I gag at the thought of them. However, I used to eat and enjoy scrapple and hot dogs - even knowing what was in them. I'm from the Mid-Atlantic area though so that has some bearing on what I eat. I think it's kind of you to have cooked for your students and co-workers. Sounds fun all around ;-)
@@D7cooper I'm from the Southern part of the USA where Soul Food originated and not all Southerners eat Chitterlings (yuck) and Blood Sausage is European , you would have a hard time finding in most States in America.
@@mysteryelysian Whew. My Georgia born and bred Dad never mentioned Chitterlings so I hear you that all Southerners don't eat that. Looking back at @BlackPiano's comment, she says that she doesn't eat Chitterlings either. I thought that blood sausage was British and illegal here in the US, but I thought maybe it had been imported without me hearing that. Thanks for confirming that blood sausage isn't common here in the US.
chillleeeee!!! I almost died when they said they made collards with kale. Lawd jesus why!! Kale and collards are NOT the same I repeat for the love of all things southern... they are NOT the same.. Even if you season them the same. The taste is completely different! If yall wanted collards I could have sent you some. Lawd... just why!! Uhhh bless your heart!
They should have had hot sauce on their greens. Or chopped up tomatoes and onions on it. Plus where's the potato salad at? And the soft jiffy cornbread with honey on it at? Plus that chicken look like some pg13 chicken. Where's the rated R grandma chicken at tho? And the sweet potato pie
The cornbread is supposed to be crumbled up in the greens/pinto beans with onion/ fried or boiled cabbage. Honey on Jiffy mix (that stuff is already WAY to sweet) WTF. Jiffy mix is for corncake, not cornbread. Cornbread is savory. My son in law even makes his pancakes out of jiffy mix, it doesn't have enough cornmeal in it to make for a "true" cornbread.
bruh i can't wait for thanks giving all that soul food in my fridge that will last about almost a week eating leftovers for breakfast, lunch, and dinner cuz "ain't nobody cooking no food". They needed the mac n cheese the sweet potatoes casserole with marshmallows November needs to hurry up and end i need my food lmao
Jiffy??? Sweat cornbread is disgusting. Honey... what??? Homemade cornbread made from scratch is ten times better than jiffy. And then you crumble it with the collard greens. Or use it to sop up the juices from your collard greens.
The way they said collard greens was just adorable. I can't image anyone tasting soul food and not liking it. They needed some help with that dry cornbread though. LOL
When he added the greens to the cornbread and ate it with his hands, I was so happy! That is how the elders and older people eat greens. My mom ate it that way.
The legs/ wings are called dark meat not black meat. I wish in these cuisine cultural exchange videos, they would have the culture that makes the food provide the background and information
I'm happy y'all tried our dishes and enjoyed them 😊 I will say for everyone asking for steamed rice with the greens, yes, we eat rice with our greens too lol I guess Korean and soul food aren't so different
In Korea when you are born you are considered 1 year old instead of 0 and they add a year on new years day, so if you born late in the year you could quickly get a couple extra "years" to your age in Korea before you would in other countries
Koreans have a different age system where on the day of your birth you are considered 1-year-old ( in usa 1 day old) and everyone ages together during the new year celebration. So if it's past her birthday day she would be 2 years older in Korea but, if it's earlier than her birthday she's only one year older. It's really confusing haha. So her Korean Age is 17 but her international age is 15.
Korean age system is 2 years ahead of international age because when you're born in Korea, you're considered 1 years old already, as well as on the first day of the year, so you're already 2 before a non-Korean baby is even 1 yet.
Title: "Korean Teens Try 'Soul Food' For The First Time" Me: "I wonder how it tastes like?" Also me: made fried chicken and cornbread freakin yesterday
This video made me miss my grandmother. A big southern black woman with a great smile, kind voice and loving heart. She cooked family recipes that came from Orleans all the way to Alabama. Her soul food could always bring a family together for some fun. I have to admit, I haven't had as good a meal since I left home.
damn i miss my grandad same thing he was born here in Alabama moved to Louisiana were i was born and moved back to Alabama when i was 5 months bcz of hurricane Katrina and he used to make the best neck bones man RIP he was a preacher as well i loved that man
I'm weeping at that cornbread bro. My grandpa would have made me make it over again if he saw that. Kale? You aren't going to get the same taste, however this is a good starting point. PS: you can eat collard greens with rice.
What the assortment of foods that they had they could have added rice, my mom always makes rice whenever she has chicken, macaroni, collard greens. We haven't had cornbread in a while though
@@priscillelikum2742 Yes, I think that was a translation blip. Breast meat is called "white meat" here in the USA. Legs, back, thighs, and wings are called "dark meat," but nuances like that could be missed in any translation.
love southern food, reminds me of home. Cornbread, chicken, mash potatoes, greens, biscuits n gravy, grits, mac n cheese, corn on the cob, okra, catfish, butter beans, black eye peas,hush puppies, comeback sauce, banana pudding, pecan pie, key lime pie, peach cobbler, etc etc. Damn now im hungry now
Thank you for this video and your efforts, especially attempting to cook at home. As an African American, I can honestly say your options were not good. Kale is not a substitute for collards. That cornered is not right, it should not be hard. I am happy to cook a proper meal for you if you ever come to the US. Soul Food is a wonderful food that brings together families, friends, and communities. It's history goes all the way back to US slavery. Today, it is shared by people of all colors, not just African Americans, and I hope you get the real deal one day ❤
Y’all come by anytime I’ll cook y’all all of these !! 😩thanksgiving where you at and also where is the BAKED MACARONI AND CANDY YAMS!

Corn bread is supposed to be soft and moist like a cake texture why was it a biscuit XD fair attempt tho
It might have dried out. Dried out cornbread can still be saved soaked in milk and eaten like a cereal/mush.
To be fair, some restaurants have hard cornbread.
cornbread does get hard when its not hot so its understandable
That looked like a scone more than cornbread.
I think it's because they made it in biscuits instead of like a cake, it dried out. Still looked good to me though. I'd eat it.
My sister told me that she worked for a Korean clothing store in Chicago and she took some greens, cornbread and chicken to work with her for lunch. She said that it smelled so good that the Koreans wanted to try some of it. She said that they paid her 200 dollars to cook a big meal for them! I will never forget that. lol

There are plenty of rice dishes that are eaten in soul food: peas and rice (Hoppin' John), red rice, and just the white rice that you eat with smothered oxtails 🤤

It would be the real thing but so much more unhealthy 😂
funny you should say that. I live here in Korea from South Carolina. Its very hard to find a lot of the same ingredients from back home like collard greens and okra. I found a grower for okra and I have been in heaven pickling and freezing them for the winter. Now if only There was a better way to get some grits 😋 GMOs are banned here so fresh fruits and vegetables are outstanding and yes you can taste the difference. Telling my age here but a lot of food tastes like it did when I was a kid some 40 years ago.
Wanda Gaines How long have you lived in Korea? How do you like it there? I’ve heard certain produce is hard to find or a lot more expensive in Korea, like limes or avocado. Anything else that’s impossible to find there?
The cook did what he could do 🤣🤣. It’s extremely difficult to find these foods cooked in Korea. They’ll just have to try the real thing when they visit the US.
The boy had the right idea to eat it with the cornbread, that's how we eat it here! I really do wish you could experience real Black soul food since you guys showed a genuine interest T_T There's so many other foods within soul food I wish you could try, you'd love it!
I'm white and a cook from the south, and I've got to say... Oxtail stew! Love it. It sounds weird to outsiders, but it's like a better, richer, more delicious version of beef stew. If people are trying soul food for the first time, oxtail stew is an absolute must for the newbies.
I absolutely love dipping my corn bread whether it be with like steak and run it through the juices, or through the mashed potatoes it's always 100x better that way. And plus who cares if you're white/black/purple soul food is delicious no matter who you are Matt lol.
@@matthill5426 I know what oxtail stew is dude...lol
When he put the greens on the cornbread I was like "how does he know to do that?!"
You are so right jade charles. Excellent response!
All you need is some fried okra, mac and cheese, and peach cobbler, and you're good to go. Kale tastes nothing like collards. I personally go for turnip greens over collard greens.
I also like neck bones in my greens most of the time, bacon and fatback is still good though ❤️
@@angelicaregine9621 my family puts neckbones in our greens as well. fatback is good though.
@@angelicaregine9621 I always use ox tail. It's really fatty, but I love it. My family not so much. If I'm cooking for others, I use neck bones or bacon. I also add a little pepper vinegar, which I make out of ceyennes that I grow.
@bensum9111 I remember my grandma use to do it with oxtails, honestly I want to try mine to make mine with it to see if I can pull up the same amazing flavor
Some fried catfish, grits and pig ears would be good too.
Soul-food actually began during slavery, when we had to make scraps the owners gave us edible. We cook from our heart and soul, hence then name😉
The irony is that soul food was SO good that foods that were considered "poor people food" such as lobster, shrimp and crabs are now considered rich people foods.
Wait, isn't cornbread supposed to be soft? Those looked more like biscuits than cornbread. And where was the honey butter?
It could've been corn biscuits 😂
They need to try that good skillet cornbread warm out the oven with honey butter melting on top
No honey butter for me! I prefer my cornbread to be savory lol.
It gets hard in a few days if air is allowed to get to it and dry it out. That being said, if you treat it as a mush/cereal and have it with milk, you can still get the great taste without the problems of it being dry and or hard.
And nice and warm too!
The only thing you missing is banana pudding, ox tail and homemade macoroni
Talk to em ox tails hit too different. I don’t know about Mac tho it’s too easy to mess up if the right person don’t cook it.
Catfish, scalloped potatoes, and sweet potato pie too XD
You really knocked this one out the park, I’m salivating over here 😭👏👏👏👏
Oooo don’t talk to me about no oxtails I’ll get hungry 😭

When I saw him put the collard greens on the cornbread, I was like huh? How’d he know?! 😂
Greens were soupy and wet. Cornbread was a dry biscuit. Doesn't take much to figure out.

When he put the “collard greens” with the “cornbread” he was really on to something💯 I love mixing the two😩 but I really wish they could’ve experienced real collard greens and cornbread
I died when he put the greens with the cornbread. Lol! Those kids know they were not getting the real deal. They kept asking "Who cooked this?" and she made it except the 'looks like' KFC bought chicken. They they all said they want to come to the states and try it. They want to experience the real thing. Hopefully one day they'll be able to.
@@dione675 IKR. They ain't stupid! LOL
them collard greens no.... and that “cornbread” girl thats a biscuit
@the super family ost lol they need to fly my auntie out there, give them a proper meal
That's not even a good biscuit! That is a catastrophe!
@@anitastafford6617 probably hard for them to get proper american ingredients over there
@@jesus3300 I'm not buying that one. Soul food is about turning what you have into delicious food. I know damn well they have mustard and turnip greens. They put mustard greens in their kimchi! You can buy turnips in any market. It doesn't have to be collard greens. Not every black family eats collard greens. I never ate collards until I was 24 years old because my parents didn't eat them.
Cornbread only takes a good recipe. It's not about the ingredients it's about the knowledge. They'd be pissed off if someone adulterated their food like that. Stop making excuses for willful ignorance. Do you know how many recipes and RUclips tutorials there are on cooking soul food? You need to come better than that with the excuses.
The man who put collard greens on cornbread said the African American background is heart-breaking so I mean
He was right about the 2nd part so maybe the first part is great too.
Edit: "It was nice to have American healthy foods" Oh no y'all didn't' give her real Soul Food huh
It definitely tells me that they had it explained a lot more deeply to them than what we saw, because what they said here didn’t even remotely insinuate that African Americans had/have a difficult time here. I’m guessing they gave some deep history, but to keep it from running 15 minutes, they cut it back. Notice they also never touched what I assume were the black eyed peas in the bowl in front?
Charles Edwards that looks like corn
The kale was the closest they could find to collards. Personally I could never eat kale. Taste nothing like collards to me. Growing up I may have eaten it only once and I threw up. Lol
Martin Lawrence ..." these ain't my mamas biscuits!!"
2:24 “That one is Cornbread”
me: i believe the correct word you’re looking for is “sCoNe”
Uh-oh. As Yosemite Sam would say, "Them's fightin' words!"
right!!! that looks nothing like cornbread whether it was cooked in a pan or a skillet
Looked like a drop biscuit to me and honestly want to try it that way.
No we eat rice too but you are really missing that MAC N Cheese ~~
I have never seen corn bread cooked like that😂
Y’all robbed them of a true soul food experience with that kale.
They said getting the real thing was difficult
They could've brought mustard greens and mixed with the kale and it would taste the same my grandmother do that all the time
it’s not their fault he said it’s hard to get in korea
While I appreciate the effort, as a Southerner I have to say, kale ain’t collards. Also, ham hocks over bacon, but that’s more of a personal preference.
Bruh i might be a white northerner but i like bacon more then ham imo
@@juljasmah Ham and ham hocks ain’t the same thing. Ham hock is mostly connective tissue, generally smoked, and requires long cooking times to fully extract the flavor. Usually used in stews, soups, or, in this case, greens.
In terms of ham or bacon in general, I’ll take bacon over ham.
or fat back
I like how the guy put the cornbread with the greens without being told thats how its suppose to be eaten... he just felt it in his spirit lol
HE FELT IT! 😂😂😂😂
😂😂”Felt it in his spirit”🤣
Felt it in his soul

Ridiculous, a soul food meal without macaroni and cheese.
macaroni and cheese is Italian food

Yall considered our food “scraps” now all of a sudden you wanna claim it? Theres a difference between southern food and soul food. Yall eat mashed potatoes we eat yams. Yall eat green bean casserole and we eat green beans with smoked turkey necks /pork or greens. Yall really be tryin it.

In many languages black is also used to refer to something of darker shade. Some languages don’t have words for “dark” specifically. Black is understood as dark.
That blue box is where it’s at. I do 2 boxes, but add an xtra egg for each box and a third cup sugar for both. Then butter when out the oven !!!

@@bellecat1507 ong my grandad used to make it all the time RIP we from the south we like to get down in the kitchen
As an African American this is wonderful. Thank you! Cultural diversity - food brings people together!
The way we get our collard greens is going to someone who has a collard greens garden and get it from them. My mom puts turkey necks in her’s and it’s fire. Now fried chicken.....not everyone makes it the same way. Some put too much or not enough seasoning. That one y’all had didn’t look like it had enough seasoning. We buy the cornbread mix and let it bake in the oven. Everyone’s macaroni and cheese is different. Send these babies to the south for some real soul food.

This reinforces my desire to visit Korea with my 71 year old mother. We love soul food and she taught me how to cook as well as to try new dishes. She made me a foodie! I believe she would love Korean food. And this video also takes me back to cooking Thanksgiving for a number of my Asian friends about 10 years ago. Some of the dishes were soul food. I am happy to say that they loved their first experience with Thanksgiving and soul food!
This is the least soul, soul food I’ve ever seen. It’s almost like giving people Panda Express and telling them it’s chinese food.

It is not chitterlings or pig feet.
Kale and collard greens are nothing alike. That is horrible.
They literally said they couldn’t get collard greens in Korea. Idk why you guys are crying about it
@@prtybrneyez18 Seriously? Nobody missed that. The point is it's kind of a waste of time to compare apples to oranges.
@@prtybrneyez18 - OKAY. But if you cannot get collards in Korea, don't call the substitute by that name. That's madness. If it's kale, call it kale. You can't just turn a completely different vegetable into another one at will.
Sometimes my mom mixes kale in our collard greens but it definitely should not be the only thing in there!
@@SpongeMPCGirl My mom did too. We always ate mixed greens. A combo of mustard, turnip, collard, kale to mix it up every now and then. I actually really like the kale collard combo. Thats how I make mine now.
You can most definitely eat collar greens with rice. Born and raised in the south in New Orleans, LA.
WHERE IS THE MAC AND CHEEESEEEEE IT CANT BE SOUL WITHOUT MAC AND CHEESEEEEE
Right! Along with candied yams and potato salad.
This is what I was wondering about. You can't have chicken, greens, and cornbread without mac & cheese.
Gotta be Baked Mac and Cheese 🧀
Baked!
LOL The whole time I kept looking at that bowl saying how it looks like mac n cheese.
Kale? Whew child.. 😔 They should of invested in getting someone that’s an expert in Soul Food because bae BAE it looked like you can build a house with that cornbread 🤣 . Better luck next time. But I love their reactions
It was a pure delight watching these animated young people. All were so pleasant.
Is it just my southern household that would have all of these, two more types of chicken, thicc baked mac n cheese, some sort of potato dish, AND rice?!
We love our carbs 🥰🥰🥰
We have fried chicken, ranch seasoned fried chicken, and lemon pepper chicken, potato salad, pasta salad, collard greens, baked beans, baked Mac n cheese, pecan pie, etc. 🤤Imma miss all of it when I go to college 😫💔
Pot roast with potatoes💜, beef ribs (cuz I don't eat pig) sweet baby Ray all on it!!!!, some gumbo!!!!! I- 😔 I'm ready for a family reunion.
Y’all having pie and red velvet cake too?! Please say yes cause we do this as well !!!
where the banana pudding tho?😭
@@MysteryPersona nana puddin' is for special occasions 😉
THANK YOU FOR ATTEMPTING THIS!!! The young man had the right idea trying to eat the cornbread with the collard greens! Often times, my mom will eat just a big bowl of greens and some corn bread or a big bowl of black-eyed pease and corn bread. I’m sorry you had to have the store-bought chicken. If I were still there I’d totally hook you up. That store’s chicken is missing the crispy/crunchy skin. Thank you! Thank you for sharing soul food in Korea!❤️ Maybe in my next gift package mail out I’ll send you guys some canned collard greens and some bags of pease since they are very hard to get there. (I remember the struggle. ☺️) I’ll also try to get you my mom’s skillet cornbread recipe. It should be savory, not at all sweet, soft, and buttery even if you use a muffin tin. However, whatever you do, please do not use any boxed version of cornbread. The cornbread here seemed to be too hard and more like biscuits from what I can see. 😅 Culturally , we also do eat pigs feet (not me), blood sausage, sweet potato pie, banana pudding, fried okra, oven baked macaroni and cheese, chitterlings (not me), and turnip greens as well. I really want to see soul food shared with Koreans. I used to cook for my co-workers and students ALL THE TIME. They loved it and it surprised me, honestly, because I was new to Korea and didn’t know then even what common Korean foods there were so I didn’t know if any of it would taste good to them.
I love sweet cornbread tho. it’s nice to have when the other food is salty 😅 my husband stands on the side of savory cornbread
I LOVE collard greens and even kale - if the kale has coconut milk in the broth, oh yum! - but I have never eaten pigs feet, blood sausage, or chitterlings. I've heard of them, but I gag at the thought of them. However, I used to eat and enjoy scrapple and hot dogs - even knowing what was in them. I'm from the Mid-Atlantic area though so that has some bearing on what I eat.
I think it's kind of you to have cooked for your students and co-workers. Sounds fun all around ;-)
Yes
@@D7cooper I'm from the Southern part of the USA where Soul Food originated and not all Southerners eat Chitterlings (yuck) and Blood Sausage is European , you would have a hard time finding in most States in America.
@@mysteryelysian Whew. My Georgia born and bred Dad never mentioned Chitterlings so I hear you that all Southerners don't eat that. Looking back at @BlackPiano's comment, she says that she doesn't eat Chitterlings either. I thought that blood sausage was British and illegal here in the US, but I thought maybe it had been imported without me hearing that. Thanks for confirming that blood sausage isn't common here in the US.
My heart broke when I saw no macaroni and cheese. Heard the word kale and saw that dry ass biscuit 🤣. Chicken looked good though
No Mac n cheese!?!! This ain’t Soul Food. 🙅🏾♀️

chillleeeee!!! I almost died when they said they made collards with kale. Lawd jesus why!! Kale and collards are NOT the same I repeat for the love of all things southern... they are NOT the same.. Even if you season them the same. The taste is completely different! If yall wanted collards I could have sent you some. Lawd... just why!! Uhhh bless your heart!
What would be close. They eat some bok choy? And spinach? That might be similar. I agree Kale has a strong pepper flavor.
Is my grandma the only one who bakes the corn bread in a cast iron pot ? So when we take it out it looks like a big round circle.....
Mine too 😭
Exactly
Every body cooks it that way ..only restaurants do muffins
my whole family just get any container that is oven safe and cook it in that lmaoo especially the glass ones

I love this channel so much. They not only do the trendy stuff, but teach so much other and educate the reviewers. It really warms my heart.
They should have had hot sauce on their greens. Or chopped up tomatoes and onions on it. Plus where's the potato salad at? And the soft jiffy cornbread with honey on it at? Plus that chicken look like some pg13 chicken. Where's the rated R grandma chicken at tho? And the sweet potato pie
The cornbread is supposed to be crumbled up in the greens/pinto beans with onion/ fried or boiled cabbage. Honey on Jiffy mix (that stuff is already WAY to sweet) WTF. Jiffy mix is for corncake, not cornbread. Cornbread is savory. My son in law even makes his pancakes out of jiffy mix, it doesn't have enough cornmeal in it to make for a "true" cornbread.
ok chill woman ur literally naming the whole buffet.
bruh i can't wait for thanks giving all that soul food in my fridge that will last about almost a week eating leftovers for breakfast, lunch, and dinner cuz "ain't nobody cooking no food".

@@gigi_21Xx , Lol Yooo SAME
Jiffy??? Sweat cornbread is disgusting. Honey... what???
Homemade cornbread made from scratch is ten times better than jiffy. And then you crumble it with the collard greens. Or use it to sop up the juices from your collard greens.
The way they said collard greens was just adorable. I can't image anyone tasting soul food and not liking it. They needed some help with that dry cornbread though. LOL
them not greens thats mfkin kale bruh
.....ummm, this isn't "soul food." It looks like a KFC meal. This was not a good example.
i mean yeah of course but how many american southerners live in korea that have soul food businesses? or even the ingredients in general
Or Boston market
More like SOLE food.
They did the best with what they have. People are sharing your culture far and wide, be grateful.
It was closer then others I have seen. This channel seems to do their research a little better then others.

Why would that make them happy?
Definitely. I was wondering why there was none...
Eating the corn bread and the greens together. Obi Wan has taught him well.
variations in the recipes IS encouraged
MAKE IT YOUR WAY, to your taste
5:30 This person here who mix cornbread and greens together is really smart🤝👍
The legs/ wings are called dark meat not black meat. I wish in these cuisine cultural exchange videos, they would have the culture that makes the food provide the background and information
I'm happy y'all tried our dishes and enjoyed them 😊 I will say for everyone asking for steamed rice with the greens, yes, we eat rice with our greens too lol I guess Korean and soul food aren't so different
Lord have mercy that cornbread looks like a rock
But I guess you get points for trying
Can someone explain how the girl in the orange, Yumin, is 17 years old but also 15 years old "international age"???
In Korea when you are born you are considered 1 year old instead of 0 and they add a year on new years day, so if you born late in the year you could quickly get a couple extra "years" to your age in Korea before you would in other countries
Koreans have a different age system where on the day of your birth you are considered 1-year-old ( in usa 1 day old) and everyone ages together during the new year celebration. So if it's past her birthday day she would be 2 years older in Korea but, if it's earlier than her birthday she's only one year older. It's really confusing haha. So her Korean Age is 17 but her international age is 15.
Korean age system is 2 years ahead of international age because when you're born in Korea, you're considered 1 years old already, as well as on the first day of the year, so you're already 2 before a non-Korean baby is even 1 yet.
Same reason I'm 15 in 7th grade
they basically consider you born at conception for lack of a better explanation
The breakdown of what soul food is regarding its origin and current state is perfect. Equitable, accurate, relevant.

This video made me miss my grandmother. A big southern black woman with a great smile, kind voice and loving heart. She cooked family recipes that came from Orleans all the way to Alabama. Her soul food could always bring a family together for some fun. I have to admit, I haven't had as good a meal since I left home.

damn i miss my grandad same thing he was born here in Alabama moved to Louisiana were i was born and moved back to Alabama when i was 5 months bcz of hurricane Katrina and he used to make the best neck bones man RIP he was a preacher as well i loved that man
I'm weeping at that cornbread bro. My grandpa would have made me make it over again if he saw that.
Kale? You aren't going to get the same taste, however this is a good starting point. PS: you can eat collard greens with rice.
What the assortment of foods that they had they could have added rice, my mom always makes rice whenever she has chicken, macaroni, collard greens. We haven't had cornbread in a while though
Bruh.. that chicken ain't "black meat", the legs and thighs are dark meat... black meat... that's messed up.
Hahahaha!
To be fair that is probably just the closest translation. Maybe the word for dark and black are used interchangeably??
@@priscillelikum2742 Yes, I think that was a translation blip. Breast meat is called "white meat" here in the USA. Legs, back, thighs, and wings are called "dark meat," but nuances like that could be missed in any translation.
Thats probably what he meant. Stop being presumptuous and rude.
is not that serious
love southern food, reminds me of home. Cornbread, chicken, mash potatoes, greens, biscuits n gravy, grits, mac n cheese, corn on the cob, okra, catfish, butter beans, black eye peas,hush puppies, comeback sauce, banana pudding, pecan pie, key lime pie, peach cobbler, etc etc. Damn now im hungry now
Thank you for this video and your efforts, especially attempting to cook at home. As an African American, I can honestly say your options were not good. Kale is not a substitute for collards. That cornered is not right, it should not be hard. I am happy to cook a proper meal for you if you ever come to the US. Soul Food is a wonderful food that brings together families, friends, and communities. It's history goes all the way back to US slavery. Today, it is shared by people of all colors, not just African Americans, and I hope you get the real deal one day ❤
