@@dreadpirategibi2038 I don't know what is the ley Celaa and I'm not interested in Spanish, Catalan or Ballearic politics. But I have some knowledge of linguistics and the history of European languages. The Ballearic dialects are so closely related to Catalan as for example the Andalusian dialects are to Castilian. They are the result of the Christian conquest of these territories in the Middle Ages. The settlers who established themselves in Minorca came directly from the Emporda district and the villages of what today is called Costa Brava, in the Northeast of Catalonia. Six centuries later, there are not many differences between the Menorqui dialect and the Catalan spoken by the older generation of locals in villages like Cadaques. See in You Tube the video "L'article salat al catala de Catalunya" and hear an older lady from Tossa de Mar (Costa Brava) - and tell us the difference between Menorqui and the language of that lady.
I appreciate all the videos this channel provides. I've learned so much about the European Culture that I had never known before. I only wish that you add English Subtitles on the other videos so that other viewers, as I would have the chance to understand more.
I love this series of informative videos. I have watched all of this series two or three times, occasionally five or six times with my favorites. They are like old friends to me now. May we please have more in this format and this venue? They are all so very well done. Thank you whoever put them up. Very well done indeed!
Here in Philippines, caldereta is limited to just pork, beef, or chicken. Honestly, I have never thought of cooking seafood in caldereta, but maybe I will try in the future.
One thing that stands out to me the most is no one no matter where they live seem to have a decent knife for cutting vegetables. I see many paring knives and other smaller ones but not a nice chef's knife.
wocomoCOOK hi there! it seems that this video is episode 200. i cant stop watching this videos. Do you know where can i find season 1 episode 1? thank you!
@@sfbirdclub please come, you will be most welcome. Minorcan people and balearics in general have such a strong connection to their roots, it is amazing. Are you British?
Love this Doc .On the start his mother's name is Dunia Olive languages always fascinate me Dunia in Swahili means World . let me enjoy the food in absentia.
Gustavo De Mira It is true there are many similarities to Portuguese, French and Italian. Good morning in Catalã is bom dia, good afternoon is bona tarda. The numbers 0-9 are very close to the French Languedoc language.
Llagosta in Catalan or langosta in Spanish is not at all a langoustine as you keep calling it (in English a spiny lobster). A langoustine is much smaller, pinkish with two big claws
The only thing that I do not understand is that they are calling lobsters langoustines. Langoustines are what is known as prawns in the North Sea. The lobsters they show are warm water lobsters (no pinchers) and are found around the world in warmer waters.
Perhaps in Minorca they call warm water lobsters langoustines but in all of the other countries that I know langoustines are the small skinny prawns with a shell similar to these but they are called prawns in the North sea and langoustines in Brazil.
Greg Johnson: They call them “llagostes” in Catalan - “langostas” in Spanish (= spiny lobsters, rock lobsters, or langoustes in English), not “llagostins” / “langostinos”. You are right: “llagostins” / “langostinos” in Catalan / Spanish are prawns in the UK. Langoustines (= scampi) in English are “cigalas” in Spanish.
You have an excellent ear. ...and you're absolutely right btw, Catalan (Menorquí in this case) and Italian are a lot more related than some people tends to think.
Marc Marti yea cuz after rome conquered italy, it sailed to Catalunya first and conquered it early in the republic, not conquering spain until much later, leaving Catalan much closer to Latin and therefore Italian

I think he meant "hake" but I doubt that... if I'm not mistaking they are related to the sharks (that don't have any bones neither) anyway, as a Catalan (not a Menorquí but a kind of a near coast neighbour) I can tell you that the documentary is very nice but vaguely accurate in a lot of senses being one of the the subtitles and translations ;) Good intentions indeed, but plenty of mistakes...
Thank you, thought I was going mad, yes he probably meant shark as David Taylor quite rightly pointed out (commentator saying family is also wrong, as it is in the same 'class' as sharks)
How will these small fishing villages survive global warming. Sad that so much history across the world will soon disappear. These docs will be watched by our children with envy
Welcome to spain, spanish women sound like men, smoke like men and look like men, they laugh like horses, are quite unkempt and are very masculine after 30 years, only spanish men can get erection on them, no normal men! And Spanish men have become more feminine. It's all thanks to spanish feminists fighting for equality with men, now they are equal, lmao. But when the daughter in law is lazy to cut the fish and decides it's such a hard work she immediately remembers her husband: I'll ask Louis(because he's a man, therefore stronger), at this moment she has forgotten that she's equal with men, such are stupid ridiculous spanish feminists- hypocrats!!
I came for the food
I stayed for the sound of Minorcan Catalan being spoken
both beautiful!!!

So glad that I found this channel, I'm really enjoying these videos on local life & cuisines. Thanks & keep up the great work.
I love cooking different foods from many countries and these recipes are FANTASTIC!💖🌞
Its amazing to see all the people share their resources among themselves
I like how MIL is teaching her DIL the traditional cooking methods.
The fish and langoustine stew look great...a simple but fantastic lifestyle

Wow, I envied their life so much..Wow.
really want to see more of this video life in other country and how delicious the and how beautiful there place is..so simple but happy family
This used to be a staple in UK fish and chip shops don't see many ordering it these days. Wonderful tasting fish.

I think its more savory especially when its shrimp..

when i see them use lobster brain to make a dish, i know they truly know how to eat
Though life but with friends and family good food
I love how the mother-in-Law interacts with her daughter -in-Law, it's clear they have very good relationships.
This is really an awesome channel ☺ I always wanted to see European countries and I feel like I'm literally there.
Just one question- how do you cook skates and get the rubber wheels so tender? Looks like they would be chewy...
Daughter in law and mommy have a good relation 👍
wocomoCOOK hi there! it seems that this video is episode 200. i cant stop watching this videos. Do you know where can i find season 1 episode 1? thank you!
Skate cleaned and fried in a shallow pan with chips, salt pepper and malt vinegar. A meal fit for a king.
WONDERFUL!!!! HUGE FAN!!!
What is the small town they live in. I cannot understand the name as spoken. Looked for it on the map. Nothing looked similar!
the town is Es Mercadal, Minorca. Beautiful place.

What's the difference between a skate and a ray?
Good.
Does a new What's Cooking season come in August?
Love your videos so very interesting ❣❣👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Delicious
Lucky people
Does anyone know where i can get that vod mayo recipe?
"Mama! The package arrived and it's the Cuisinart!"
Catalan is an under appreciated language
I thought they speaking a mixture of italian and some island spanish dilect. Catalan language sounds wonderful and also great hospitable people
Minorcan sounds so much like Portuguese, in punctuation, musicality and tonality.
Gustavo De Mira It is true there are many similarities to Portuguese, French and Italian. Good morning in Catalã is bom dia, good afternoon is bona tarda. The numbers 0-9 are very close to the French Languedoc language.
Gustavo De Mira É verdade amigo. Eu gosto muito a região Catalan da fronteira da França até Alicante.
It sounds very Catalan.....
@@BaibaVulgaris Pons last name is Catalan,
Minorcan is Catalan. It is a variant of Catalan and would be understood by most Catalans.
Sting gray is delicious with coconut milk..
Keep up the great work ❤️
how much thoes fish sell for
bakalar in my languague it is the same good eating!!!!!
I understand Spanish but have no clue what they said..Catalan?
Llagosta in Catalan or langosta in Spanish is not at all a langoustine as you keep calling it (in English a spiny lobster). A langoustine is much smaller, pinkish with two big claws
i never heard this kind of spanish accent, must be from islands.
The only thing that I do not understand is that they are calling lobsters langoustines. Langoustines are what is known as prawns in the North Sea. The lobsters they show are warm water lobsters (no pinchers) and are found around the world in warmer waters.
In Spanish and Catalan langosta is lobster and langostino is large prawn. The Menorcan dish is called Caldereta de langosta.
Please make more videos in English. I've been for months for your new episodes 😭
Perhaps in Minorca they call warm water lobsters langoustines but in all of the other countries that I know langoustines are the small skinny prawns with a shell similar to these but they are called prawns in the North sea and langoustines in Brazil.
Greg Johnson: They call them “llagostes” in Catalan - “langostas” in Spanish (= spiny lobsters, rock lobsters, or langoustes in English), not “llagostins” / “langostinos”. You are right: “llagostins” / “langostinos” in Catalan / Spanish are prawns in the UK. Langoustines (= scampi) in English are “cigalas” in Spanish.
Great vid but I honestly don't like the way she fries stuff in not-to-temp oil.
truth
Mono-filament tangle nets are the most indiscriminate method of fishing.
MIL has nice hair
😍😍😘😘
it's weird that sounds like a northern Italian dialect. some words are more similar to Italian than Spanish
You have an excellent ear.

♥️♥️♥️
Those are not Langoustine though. They are Spiny Lobsters.
Janet Seidlitz - yeah! In English language it is called lobster but in Spanish language it is termed as langoustine. . . .
"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet" Spiny Lobster in English, Langoustine in Spanish.

Dried salted ray, BBQ.....Hmmmm.
are they speak portuguese?
catalan, in its menorca's variety
pawel slabon no, they are speaking the minorcan dialect of catalan
wooooww
Why don't they use lobster pots they could have a larger harvest?
'The skate is related to the shake family'. What?!? Don't you mean 'shark'?
"Skate can grow up to 7m" - I don't think so!
I always thought they came in sizes like regular shoes.
"Skate are related to the sheikh family". Really??
I think he meant "hake" but I doubt that... if I'm not mistaking they are related to the sharks (that don't have any bones neither)

it's not "mayonnaise" , it's "aïoli"

That is not fish its sting ray
skate dont usually taste good
