I appreciate your efforts trying to make a dish from every single country in the world. Some tips for making ema datshi: - Tomatoes are not required actually - use onion slices rather than chopped same with tomatoes if u are using it - cream cheese works best with ema datshi most people use the same at home or even in restaurants - Cottage cheese is good, the cheese used in Bhutan is also a kind of cottage cheese - I personally don't prefer cheddar cheese - Bhutanese people mostly use cheese from cattle 🐄 these days yaks are scarce in Bhutan.
Thanks for the tips! This dish is a staple in our home now and we have it at least once a week. I'm in the USA (S. California) and I've used different cheeses and like the Mexican queso fresco the best, so far, because it is quite salty and melts into the broth. Next time I make it I'll use cream cheese.
I made this tonight using a combination of Thai red chilies, Serrano chilies, filipino Sili chilies, and white cheddar cheese curds I had leftover and it was amazing. Paired it with pan roasted salmon and jasmine rice and the ema datshi raised the supper to another level. Thanks for that!
Dude, your growth as a cook is really starting to shine. You mentioned onion sweating intuition but you glossed by the foaming butter technique and that is pro level to me. I started watching you around the time of the first Jamie and Julia episode and I dig every one of the videos. Keep it up, man.
Love bhutanese food my father happens to work for the bhutan govt and we’ve been lucky to get so many beautiful ingredients from the country like cheese red rice tung rice chillies dried and green . The best.
Ema datsi is one of my all time favourite dishes. The last time I was in Bhutan, I ate it almost every day. Kewa datsi is also great…potatoes, chillies and cheese.
I Came across your channel recently thanks to the YT algorithm, and I have so enjoyed going through all your cooks with Julia!! I had ignored the other videos until this one... WOW! Cooking the countries is such an amazing challenge! Now to go back and check the ones I have missed! Thank you!
@Erin Green Oops, I see that now that I'm rereading your comment. Thanks for not being mean about it I thrive in "organized chaos" in the kitchen despite my dad trying to get me to mise en place since I was little lol. I do that more when I'm following a brand new recipe though and don't know the timing yet
@@msjkramey mise en place is really worth doing, and trust me, you can have everything ready and still explode the kitchen! Never mean! We are all here to enjoy and have fun - I am just glad to see my comments do something
@Erin Green I just came from a really toxic comment section so this is a breath of fresh air lol. Any tips for getting in the habit other than just practice? My adhd brain likes to bounce all over the kitchen (even when it's not ideal)
My Bhutanese friends in the usa use a combo of blue cheese and cream cheese. Lots of butter. And they use bigger hot peppers, left whole or just in half.
This looks great. I love this, it really shows how everyone has some variety of everything else. I have everything in this dish and most come from my own garden. I live in the midwest USA.
Have you considered trying to make your own farmer's cheese? The simplest version uses milk, lemon juice or vinegar, then whatever seasonings you want for the cheese. I tend to use dill when using lemon juice. What's more? This can easily use Lactaid's lactose-free milk! :D I'm lactose intolerant as well, so that's a fantastic relief when I have a soft cheese craving.
Ahh that looks beautiful! It WOULD have a different taste if the proper cheese was used but the heat is what should dominate this dish so it shouldn't matter too much. Gosh... when you start approaching my country, I will need to DM you about the recipes. Constant political conflict pushed what's unique to the area so far behind Ottoman cuisine that most people that live here never even heard of it. Apologies in advance, it's a super important topic for those of us that know.
Authentic way is to not add tomatoes because it separates cheese with chillies and put some feta cheese along with it and a touch of oil. The key is to not overcook chillies 🎉🎉
You are so very awesome for tackling this project. You are impressive the way you dive in and successfully create so many difficult dishes! One tiny thing - I’m from Texas and it hurts my ears to have jalapeño pronounced like a Yankee. Please pronounce it Ha La Pay Nyo (instead of a long “e” and a hard “n”.) If you get finished with all the countries in the world (it’s a good thing you’re a young man, because it’s going to take forever!) you can try a tour of cuisine in Texas. Tex-Mex, German, Czech, Cajun, Creole, Italian, Asian, Southern, Bar-B-Q (beef, not pork), Seafood, Mexican, African, Caribbean - you name it, Texas has it, especially along the Gulf Coast. Happy cooking!
I hope that he had his left fingers and had constantly with a separate spoon pour oil over his fingers to avoid the “burning fingers”. I began writing this at the onset of the video.
Wow to your efforts. But Bhutanese don’t throwaway seeds and don’t cook long. Ema datsi takes only 5-10 minutes. 15 minutes is way to long and it kills the whole taste. We put more oil and less of a water to make it stick cheese. 😃
Love Birds eye chillies esp if you get them at the Orange colour stage they have a wonderful flavour. Although for flavour it's a toss up with Jalapenos or Scotch Bonnet 🤣👍
Yep. That's the recommendation I'm looking for...."Super interesting." Thai chilis, huh? A cup or two of them? It should keep you glowing in a snowbank.
Hello sir, Im from Bhutan its not the correct way to cook ema datsi(chili cheese) And usually we dont use tomato in it and that not the correct way to cut chili lots of love from Bhutan♡︎
Cheddar is fine but it is better with cottage cheese mixed with cheddar. It is staple with rice and we have a load of varieties of ezay(kind of salad) side dish made of same ingredients but not cooked.
@@sodonia4993 yes, we are on to the B's, no going back for special requests, it's not allowed according to the rules he made, which are extremely strict, cuz he's very serious about this quest of all nations cuisines!! LOL ;D

I just don't feel like you would have told Julia Child that you couldn't find Yak cheese if she told you it was needed in a recipe. In New York City of all places you're most likely to find Yak cheese than anywhere else in America.
@@antichef if they still burn after soak them in a little milk.. I use to rub a little oil on my fingers before chopping chillies it adds a little protective barrier.. Awesome series you got here :) I love the Julia one too.
All those peppers.. all I can think.. wash those hands fast and deeply.. before an accidental eye rub...not that it's happened to me.. much worse happened....lol. What a vibrant dish tho, it looks so simply tasty. Spicy dishes.. I'm going for hotter and hotter lately... that kick is just satisfying.
A well-known chef had a food anthropologist on his show, and she said the massive use of chilis in dishes thing in cuisines is to disguise the flavor of rotting meat, or other going- off ingredients in the days before refrigeration. Freshly caught and cooked meat would not be a problem, at any time, but long-term storage is an age-old thing. Thus, most warm climates have spicy food, even today, particularly in the "third world" and tropics world-wide. Food is often "bland" in northern climes though. However, this is a new thing a mountain community that needs a warming veg. stew in the harsh winters it seems. No go for this in our house, got a food allergy, wife, not me in the house, to chilis. Too bad, we are in So AZ, and I get a Mex. fix occasionally; but cannot cook any in the house. Yaks are some kinds of big wooly cow, so any cheeses should work, if you want it a bit "gamey" then I'd add some goat or sheep cheese to the mix. Looks like a good sinus clearer of a dish, that's about it; as far as I'm concerned anyway. :D
Perhaps you might try a series in which you try to perfect a dish you obviously did not make to the standard. Almost any of the pastry dishes would work. The “Jalousie” would be my first suggestion. What you did was sufficient to describe the essence of the pastry, but I have never seen your puff pastry work. Not even the rough puff. I get that your thing is not about perfection-I love that. But, sometimes, it really seems like you should have learned better, on some things, by now. Perhaps, select one recipe, and work it, until it is perfect? Maybe? Wouldn’t that be an interesting video? Find the one that was the most difficult, and that you had to compromise on. Work it. Work it, until it is perfect. That is what chefs do. Making everything poorly once is natural. It is a part of the process. Why stop, because the video was completed?
I’m with you all the way to Zimbabwe.

Just made this today because of your video. Sooo good 👍
@antichef 1:30 if they like the spicy heat why do they remove the seeds?
I need to try it 😍
They have a dish that is hot chilis stuffed with chilis. No lie.
I think the ema dashi sometimes has potato and/or diakon
Love from Bhutan
Spicy!! Gonna try today.
Could you use ricotta as an alternative to farmers/cottage cheese?
The gas lighting with the cheese🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
we actually consume the chilli seeds aswell! my favourtite 5 mins dish. HOT and SPICY
I tried with mostly capsicum and some hot chillies. It was tasty
Jalapeños too sweet and seeds are must. You are making a sweet ema datsi.

What is ema datsi without the chilli seeds. The spiciness is the charm of ema datshi.. yes, here chilli's not a spice but a vegetable.
Cheddar is fine but it is better with cottage cheese mixed with cheddar. It is staple with rice and we have a load of varieties of ezay(kind of salad) side dish made of same ingredients but not cooked.
