      Let’s give Finland some more crédit, then !
      I’m French and is visited Finlant as a twenty something. It was one of the best trips in my life and I have many fond memories. We stayed in a family that lived about 30 km of Helsinki surounded by a beautiful pine forest and lakes. The food was amazing, I often make kanel bullar with the recipe the family shared with us. I remember the charming city and the Park with the Sybellius memorial,we eat fresh peas out of the pod that were sweet as candy. And the people are so nice and welcoming. I experienced sauna for the first time and it was amazing, i never got the same feeling in sauna anywhere the following times though.

    Okay, the thing with the Spinach pancakes from Finland is that they are more like crepes not a pan cake so you must fry them very thin. Many times they are fried with a cast iron pancake skillet that has 4 small round places to put the batter in. In Finland you can find spinach pancakes from any stores ready made, they don't contain as much spinach as homemade but as a fast snack, they are just fine. I do these pan cakes or should I say crepes with freshly picked nettle too. It is just the right season for them now. So good with lingonberry jam!

    Regarding Pinaattiletut: It´s 150 g before ringing out the water, chopped frozen spinach is most commonly sold in 150 g bags in Finnish grocery stores. I don´t even ring out the water and just whisk the ingredients together so you don´t even need to use a blender. But blending and using more spinach works well too!

    My favorite dish that my dad used to make was spinach pie. He put his own twist on his Italian grandmother‘s recipe and it was heavenly; even in my 50s, I would still beg him to make it whenever I visited him. I attempted many times to send a submission for this episode but he had just passed away on March 15 just a few weeks after being blindsided with a brain cancer diagnosis, and I was crying too hard to be able to make sense so I decided not to send the email. If you ever do a spinach part two though, I would love to share in his honor.

    The Slovakian sauce seems almost like the cream of spinach soup my family makes, only thicker and we add a few other veggies...1 potato, 1 carrot, 1 onion, 1 clove garlic cover in water boil until soft (don't drain the water). Steam 1 lb spinach in 1 cup water add to veggies and puree ( you can also just add the water and spinach to the other veggies but I often cook the spinach ahead and freeze it so I just add that, you can also puree the two things separately but why do extra work unless your blender is too small) Make a roux with 1/3 cup flour, 1/3 cup butter and mix with 2 cups milk mixing while you cook until thick. Add the purred veggies and spinach. Add 1/2 salt or to taste, 1/2 tsp dried basil, pinch of nutmeg, pinch of thyme, Fresh parsley....if your soup is too thick add more milk.

    A trick I learned from ATK for dealing with massive amounts of greens that need to be cooked down - throw them in a big bowl and put in the microwave for a minute or two. They'll reduce without potentially falling out of a pan and you can just dump the whole thing into the dish at once so you don't deal with under/overcooked greens.

    that last dish is very similar to what we eat on good friday in germany, just the spinach seems more simple. most people use "Rahmspinat" which is chopped spinach in a cream sauce. the fried egg and boiled potatoes are the same, sometimes you might have a fried fish filet or fish fingers instead of the egg

    • @baumgrt
      @baumgrt 26 дней назад +1

      It’s a pretty classic combo in Switzerland as well and a childhood favourite of mine. My mom would often prepare oven fries instead, perfect to dip in the egg and the spinach, and they provide a nice contrast in texture in a dish that’s otherwise just soft and mushy things.

    The last is like Rahmspinat in Germany. We serve it with potatos and egg as well, only the Béchamel isn’t in there, just cream. But I think it tastes very similar. ❤️

    Chaat is my favorite discovery from Indian cuisine so far. They are soooo savory and appetizing, totally impossible to stop eating once you start. I love fries with stuff, I love chips/nachos with stuff. But chaat takes everything to a next level. I am so grateful to the kind Indian restaurant who gave us an incredible free fried spinach chaat during a team lunch and introducing us all to this category of dish :)

    1. Shallots

    3. White Onions
    4. Yellow Onions
    I would put Chives, Pearl Onions, Scallions, Leek and other varieties of the onion family between Red and White Onions, because the are for special dishes or garnishes.
    Concerning Nr. 1 Shallots, I very much like the Banana Shallot, because the are a big variety of Shallots.

    19:51 garlic and shallots are the cornerstone of nearly every major South East Asian cooking. So versatile, it can be the base of stir-fries, soups, steamed fish and so forth. My favorite way of cooking spinach has to be this one, in the garlic/shallot soup but instead of prawns, I'd substitute pork or chicken. When we say sautéed until fragrant, it means to sauté it until the garlic and the shallot turns a slight golden brown for that extra kick of aroma.

    1. yellow onions
    2. red onions
    3. green onions
    3. shallots (tasty but too fiddly for me to peel, onions here are generally smaller than American onions)
    4. sweet onions

    Cook spinach from fresh or canned at a boil for 15 minutes. Less for canned. Add bacon grease and salt. Simmer for 30 minutes fresh and canned for 20. Serve hot with pinto beans, cornbread, onions, fried potatoes, or whatever you like. A good country meal via Kentucky!

    spinach taught me to try things more than once before deciding i dont like it. i always thought spinach was nasty because i had only tried that nasty waterlogged frozen compressed brick of bitter garbage. then one day someone offered me a fresh spinach salad with strawberries and poppyseed dressing and now i love it. this is your sign to go back and try things you decided you dont like.

  • @brinagotsued

    My maternal grandmother used to make breaded cod with creamed spinach and boiled potatoes, and I really wanted to try the green sauce, but since I was allergic to cow milk protein (until I was 4 years old) she had to make me some with soy milk. Nobody thought that I would like it, so she only made a small amount. It was, of course, my favorite thing ever and she started making me the same amount that the 4-5 adults would eat and that was the thing I asked to have for dinner every time we visited for the next 20 years.

  • @sweatygoblin2335

  • @PockASqueeno
    @PockASqueeno 27 дней назад +3

    You mention spinach being disliked by American children. While this is true, I would argue that this is due to us Americans not knowing how to cook spinach in an exciting or interesting way. It’s always just the base for a salad or steamed/sautéed as a side dish. Children dislike it because it’s boring…but this video just proves that it doesn’t have to be! Spinach can be a really diverse vegetable and super tasty if cooked right!

    Spinach is also a BIG part of me growing up overseas. As a child of an immigrant I understood truly what Irene went thru, we substitute the traditional greens with Spinach! Like when my mom would cook the filipino dish Tinola we didn't have malunggay, so we use Spinach! She also did it with Monggo and Laing etc.

    Since you asked...
    I love a red onion, and while I understand shallots are prized for their delicacy and mildness, they are expensive for how much you get. What I always have an eye out for is Walla Walla sweet onions, so named because they were first crossbred in Walla Walla, Washington. I first learned about them on The Frugal Gourmet on PBS back in the early 80's. They make amazing caramelized onions for burgers, steaks, or even French onion soup.

    Hi Beryl! i’m a long time fan and first time commenting. You must try to find malabar spinach as the Vietnamese soup originally used malabar spinach. The Vietnamese diaspora in US had to make-do with spinach as malabar was unavailable. Malabar spinach is an amazing vegetable because it is significantly more nutritious than spinach. Malabar spinach has a texture similar to okra, so in a soup it doesn’t have the grainy texture (oxalate crystals) in your mouth. It is easy to propagate and grow in hot and dry climate.
    Thank you for your wonderful videos. Your series on the alphabet of food is my favorite!
