    As someone from the (bland) midwest, when I had paella, shawarma & butter chicken they changed my life. Thanks for sharing recipes that we never heard of, couldn't imagine were a thing and cuisine that will also rock our little taste bud worlds.

      As another person from the “bland” Midwest, and having mostly Scandinavian relatives, I didn’t get exposed to many things growing up. There are still many things I don’t like, but have tried them. I now live in New Mexico, and have learned quite a few spicy dishes made with chiles. 🌶️🌶️🌶️ I haven’t yet developed the heat tolerance of the natives here, but I’m getting better.

    I'm an American living in Sri Lanka. I've made the Bhutanese Ema Datshi several times. We don't have Jalapenos here, but there is an equivalent. This is one helluva delicious dish. I've made it for parties and everyone loves it, especially my Sri Lankan friends.

    This isn't about anything specifically in this video, but I wanna thank you for introducing me to so many international recipes!

    YES, BHUTAN!!!!
    🎉🎉🎉
    I grew up in Chicago; practiced law in Seattle; and recently retired to Utah.
    I have never met anyone from Bhutan.
    I had never eaten any Bhutanese food…until this video!
    I have now made this dish at least six times and I’m planning on making it tomorrow.
    It is the best recipe that I’ve ever gotten from your show. It is the only recipe I’ve made multiple times I believe.

    Just made the Ema Datshi for dinner tonight! It was SO good. I doubled all of the ingredients except the jalapeno--used 260g instead of 220 because that's all I had. Oh and I was too scared it would be too spicy so I omitted the chilis. I did get amul cheese! Totally could sub a kraft white American or maybe even a mild Tillamook would work. It made enough for two very large portions. The spice level was perfect, not too spicy at all. In fact I will add in the chilis next time. Excellent dish, I'll definitely make it again!

    There is a French word for food preparation before cooking: Mise en place
    place (MEEZ ahn plahs) is a French term for having all your ingredients measured, cut, peeled, sliced, grated, etc. before you start cooking. Pans are prepared. Mixing bowls, tools and equipment set out.

    The Loatian, fermented pork sausage. There also ข้าวแหนม (Khoa Neeam) is the Thai version of similar Laotian dish. FYI, แหนม (Neeam) the store bought one, though it is raw, it was (food grade) radio active cured for sterilization. For any adventurous mind, the radio active cured one can be bought in Thai 7-11, try buying in them in Mall grocery stores, 7-11 or Lawson.

    • @Actually_Woke_6277
      @Actually_Woke_6277 28 дней назад

      The reason it’s like a jalapeño popper is because the ingredients are very much the same as many Mexican dishes : jalapenos, tomatoes, garlic/onion, and cheese

  • @infoscholar5221

    I'm Irish and Welsh, but I think I must have come from Bhutan in a past life, because I made that same cheese/pepper combo in college, and poured it over rice, quite often. It's a cheep, tasty, sober-up meal; come to Jesus, though, I used American Cheese, or Velveeta, for their wonderful melty qualities. Also, I was a poor student at an Alabama State College. Love yah, Gem of the Hills.

    As a coastal Georgia / low country native, here's the GENERAL rules on shrimp tails around here, though they differ by person.... Hard and fast rule is we USUALLY don't, because our native shrimp tails can be SHARP here as they have thick telsons, as anyone who's spent a few hours cleaning live shrimp as a kid can tell you... So shrimp tails is a big "depends" on how it's cooked and who's cookin it..
    USUALLY.... Deep fried is fine unless the person shouldn't be trusted with shrimp in the first place. Boiled is OK for smaller shrimp but if they're big one's by the times those tails calm down that shrimp is overcooked. Steamed is the same. Sautéed is a hard no. Grilled is again a depends, which largely depends on the skill of the cook and how they put them on the grill... if they can get the tails on the hot zone while the rest is more of a medium, than you're golden on eatin those.
    Most folks I know just keep the cooked tails (provided it's not a BIG event, like a boil) in a freezer bag along with the rest of the shells and heads to freeze for stock.

    • @whydoineedanameiwillneverp7790
      @whydoineedanameiwillneverp7790 29 дней назад

      For "North Indian" chaats, I feel its all about the perfect balance between the green chutney (spicy and herby), tamarind chutney (perfect combination of sweet and tangy) and fresh creamy yoghurt (sweet with a hint of tang)!
      Combine with something crunchy (raw onions, fritters, peanuts, papdi), something fresh (coriander leaves, cucumber) and optionally something that gives body (chickpeas, samosa, potato patties).
      Sprinkle with a good chat masala or just plain black salt, and maybe some lime.
      But its all about that balance, which takes a lot of experimenting to get right

    Regarding shrimp (aka prawn tails), I generally always eat them as the textural contrast is amazing especially if the shrimp have been marinated and grilled. Ditto for tempura.
    Then again, I also controversially perhaps likewise eat the shrimp heads which have amazing depth of flavour (think smoky bittersweetness). Obviously, I do draw the line at the "poop chute" removing that as a matter of course due to its sullying of the natural prawn sweetness and slight but yummy saltiness which decreases proportional to shrimp/prawn size...I.e. bigger = sweeter 🤩🦐🙏

    Hey
    Idk if I don't have jalapenos
    But got a pepper in locality exact in appearance but not really spicy
    Will add green chilis to mitigate that
    Would It work?

    I don't get why they leave the tail shell in, it is just annoying to me.😂

    My partner’s daughter will take my discarded prawn tails off my plate and eat them - I don’t, I don’t like the texture so I just eat the meat =)
