I absolutely loved her passion about her food. great show! I love this series and the respect and genuine curiosity of the host...she's not fake or over the top and I love it!
+Pelin Keskin I just realised, you are the host, well this is the first video I have seen you in. You do seem respectful towards the couple and genuinely interested in eating their food and listening to what they have to say. I would like to see more of you in future videos. 🐶
our beloved Damira Inatullaeva I'm so glad to see how You promote uzbek cuisine far from Uzbekista. I wish You good luck on this way and hope that in nearest future we will read book of uzbek recipes written by You.
I love this--you can see the shared context and respect between Pelin and the couple. Excited to see more from her! (If you haven't signed her yet...... you should.)
this video is extremely adorable, however i still feel the need to add some information about central asian food here: the woman comparing one of the uzbek dishes to chinese jiaozi and russian pelimeni (both variations of dumplings) might make some think that the uzbek dish is a copy of either of those two, but that’s not the case! dumplings were actually invented by central asians, who then carried the recipe across asia along the silk road! (the only reason why we now typically think that dumplings are chinese, is because china was and still is heavily anti-central asian. when our dish reached china they loved it, but disliked the fact that it was something coming from our cultures, so they changed a few trivial things about our recipe and re-branded dumplings as an “originally chinese dish.” and pelimeni may be of russian origin, but they are just a variation of the dumplings that central asians created! technically, central asian dumplings are the original ones and you don’t know dumplings until you have tried ours!) china has never been well known for the cooking of doughy foods, but central asia has been. in fact, it was only chinese contact with central asians, west asians, and south asians, that chinese received the knowledge of doughy foods. and more on that note; another dish believed to be of “chinese origin,” which is actually central asian, are probably noodles! the oldest noodle bowl is 4.000 years old and was found in what is now “northwestern china”, and “northwestern china” is stolen central asian land. i think i can also spy samsas in this video! most of you probably know samsas better as “samosas” and believe them to be an originally south asian dish, but it’s actually central asian as well! samsas/samosas didn’t reach south asia until central asian traders brought it over in the 13th or 14th century!
Balkan people also eat bread with literally EVERY meal it's ridiculous lol. Maybe we got that from the Turks. Is that a common thing among all Turkic peoples?
z e n z e n y o k u n a i It's common among all Islamic countries. A lot of Baltic countries like Kosovo and Bosnia even Romania and Armenia got cultural and food influence from Islamic countries and empires. The only people who do it wrong would be the Greeks who obviously got pita from the Arabs through Turkish influence but they are the only ones who actually eat the pita kind of improperly. They don't break the bread and eat with their hands they use pita only as a sandwich lol.
Everyone ate a lot of bread, bread was the staple food of europeans throughout history from the roman times up to the late stages of industrial revolution. Bread is a great way to gain calories and energy, which was needed for the hard work that was typicaly done. Places that are less industrialized still eat a lot of bread, which includes tge balkans, middle east but also other parts of eastern europe.
The thing that makes me the most proud of being American isn't our overly patriotic love of the military but (in half of the country at least) a beautiful tapestry of everyone on earth living together makes me so happy when I walked down the street and see everyone of every race. Sad to see people knocking immigration even when its legal and contributes to the evolution of the country. I love this series..
wow, i'm surprised to see how much Indian influence there is in their dishes, even with the terms they use! Heck, even the first lady's accent was borderline Indian. I love getting a glimpse into the cuisine of unexplored countries :) This was wonderful.
It's interesting that you immediately think India has influenced the uzbek cuisine, not the other way around. Baburhan the uzbek emperor conquered India and established Moghul empire. So the uzbek kitchen was introduced to indian people - but is called moghul kitchen - also the indian dance got influenced by central asian dance. And the terms you mentioned are often persian or arabic not indian. 😉 Influences can be great, imagine the mankind hadn‘t copied producing porcelain from chinese people! ☺️ But what I dislike is the fact, that the people try to tear everything away from us.
ok...next best host. pretty chill...never thought much about Uzbek food. would like to see more food that not many people see or have heard of...maybe Laotian? South African? or who knows...even Lapland or Inuit haha 😝
pelmen is not russian food. you can try it in russia too but the origin of pelmen is central asia...not even china...noodles are from Central Asia too...not china as many of you might think!
the boiled dumplings' skins are made of wheat flour right??? topped wit sour cream and butterrr ooh my godddd i never ate it and probs never will, but just imagining the rich flavours make me jshhuchggchadha
North American cuisine is the best in the world as it incorporates a vast amount of food derived from all over the World. Just as Uzbekistan food is a conglomeration of other foreign foods, so is ours but to a much larger degree. We rock!
I spent my childhood there and looking back, I can recall only one dish that was vegetarian. Its called Hamin ("hanoom"), its kinda similar to lasagna. Literally everything else is a meat dish.
Wow I never knew the influence of Urdu and Hindi on the neighbouring countries was so much Mohalla and Masoor daal both are used in India I wonder if Hindi is influenced by these languages
Its vice versa Abinav sai pingali. Baburhan the Uzbek emperor conquered India and established Moghul empire. That's how Uzbek or Turkik dishes were introduced to Indian people.
Uzbek food is amazing! Went there several years ago and I still miss their food. I love how tea is served with the food, and Uzbek people are great!
You're Welcome!
This was so well done! Really appreciated the hosts respect for the culture. Would love to see this as a regular series.
Brute Choi 공감해요 !
Yeah🤩
I'm from Uzbekistan and I have just came across with it when doing my Assignment about food. I'm really glad that you liked it. Thank you.
I absolutely loved her passion about her food. great show! I love this series and the respect and genuine curiosity of the host...she's not fake or over the top and I love it!
+Vanessa Cowles Thank you so much!
Yes, so many American tv chefs I see on shows are often so rude and disrespectful towards other people. This girl was the opposite 😊
+Pelin Keskin I just realised, you are the host, well this is the first video I have seen you in. You do seem respectful towards the couple and genuinely interested in eating their food and listening to what they have to say. I would like to see more of you in future videos. 🐶

Plov, where's PLOV ??? Best Uzbek dish ever !!
Sadly, traditional Uzbek plov is made exclusively by men.
I was wondering the same thing, where's the lagman?
lol you don't know what you're talking about
Lagman is not traditional Uzbek food
yes it is lol
Bread is love, bread is life.
+Lemons Word.
Nasi is the best
I love this--you can see the shared context and respect between Pelin and the couple. Excited to see more from her! (If you haven't signed her yet...... you should.)

OMG! Such a fun and fabulous episode! Keep it up!
(PS. Those boiled manti smothered in sour cream and butter are making my mouth water!)
manti are much bigger than this , the dish your taking about is belimashki there like mini manti
@@wargamer2213 manti are smoked, and those mini manti looking goodies are boiled and sometimes cooked
Uzbek culture looks amazing! Hope I can visit it soon :)
Great video! What an interesting insight into a cuisine that few of us have ever experienced! Keep it up!

I‘m so happy you shared these informations with us 🙏🏻 Sometimes I feel like everyone‘s trying to tear *everything* away from us.

What a beautiful lady. I am so glad she has a chance to share her culture.

Egyptian people call bread by: "عيش", which is literally can be translated to; "live", or "subsistence"

This is so soul warming.
Dumplings! What's not to like '? Looks yummy!

According to many historical documents the ubiquitous South Asian/Indian Samosa is a derivative of the Uzbek Samsa snack.
Love to see something of a country you never hear about
pelmen is not russian food. you can try it in russia too but the origin of pelmen is central asia...not even china...noodles are from Central Asia too...not china as many of you might think!
Hi. I from Uzbekistan.
Great video :)
the boiled dumplings' skins are made of wheat flour right??? topped wit sour cream and butterrr ooh my godddd i never ate it and probs never will, but just imagining the rich flavours make me jshhuchggchadha
looks delicious.
Those dumplings are literally identical, in the look, to Italian tortellini. Very interesting!
It's the same thing, the only difference the name lol
Did anyone think of Borat and his hate for Uzbekistan?
North American cuisine is the best in the world as it incorporates a vast amount of food derived from all over the World. Just as Uzbekistan food is a conglomeration of other foreign foods, so is ours but to a much larger degree. We rock!
О! Я в таком восторге, что нет слов! Браво! :-)
+golib saidov Спасибо!
Dumplings are my favorite!
Can any Uzbek send me that same exact Mashhurda recipe with the apricot? Please I want to make it and try it. Thank you
Researching how I can visit Uzbekistan now
Kensington, Brooklyn.
What was the music in the background? I know I've played it before, but I can't quite remember the name.
The only things I basicly could get that I understood were: plov, meat shashliks, the local flatbread and rice
Why not include uzbek plov? Many versions have I seen but Uzbek one has been the best.
+Nomado Great suggestion! Check out the rest of Damira's current menus here: www.leagueofkitchens.com/instructors/uzbek-cooking-with-damira
Anyone have a recipe for that mashhurda soup? I'm interested in giving it a try!
I am from Uzbekistan I eat everything and It is so tasty
I'm from uzbekistan but i moved to America
this is beautiful

Edward Grieg. Nice music.
Pelin Keskin.. That's an extremely Turkish name!
kop yahsı. rahmat
nice to see videos where american muslims are shown in a positive light
Seems like vegetables have a hard time growing in Uzbekistan
I spent my childhood there and looking back, I can recall only one dish that was vegetarian. Its called Hamin ("hanoom"), its kinda similar to lasagna. Literally everything else is a meat dish.
why no plov? :O
Beautiful!
Wow I never knew the influence of Urdu and Hindi on the neighbouring countries was so much
Mohalla and Masoor daal both are used in India
I wonder if Hindi is influenced by these languages
Its vice versa Abinav sai pingali. Baburhan the Uzbek emperor conquered India and established Moghul empire. That's how Uzbek or Turkik dishes were introduced to Indian people.
Ash the best food ever!!
What kind of Uzbek foods Do You know?
That's a ton of food she served that reporter
