    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!

      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.

    • @anonym_girl7283
      @anonym_girl7283 3 года назад +2

      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.
