you guys need to do Trini food! - THE ULTIMATE STREET FOOD
Jamie: Just do what I do and refuse to accept the illegal US annexation of the Kingdom of Hawaii.
@@aytas23 YESI want them to try Mauby!
I agree with Jamie about the second dish, if he had only written USA it would be absolutely wrong because America does not have its own national cuisine. Jamie definitely got the 5 points with his explanation.
Do they use miles in the UK? I thought you guys used metric system?
Are we getting more A-Z Global Dish challenges? I was really enjoying that series!
I agree, I too would love to see more A-Z Global Dish challenge videos.
Yes! I’ve been waiting what feels like forever for the next instalment 😢
I went in to the comments to mention this.
Yes! It is an awesome series and we need more
I imagine we'll have to wait some time. they film quite far in advance, and that particular series is reliant on feedback. so they probably ly made a couple of episodes, then wanted to see how they did before continuing. there may also be additional research involved by the food team. I have no doubt we'll get our Congo episode eventually
Barry was enjoying the Hawaii thing entirely too much 😂😊
Every US Navy vet on the West Coast just collapsed laughing at "South Korea".
US Navy sailors have somewhat of a reputation for not seeing anything of a foreign land except what is found between the pier and the closest bar. In this case, Musubi at least used to be on the menu at the EM Club at NavSta Pearl Harbor, which is where I had it for the first time. Didn't even need to leave the base for this one. Granted, times change...it's been over 30 years now.
The Philippines would also have been a correct answer. Kind of sad to consider that one of our most enduring legacies of WWII, Korea, and Vietnam has been to inject SPAM into the local cuisines across the Pacific Rim.
FWIW, my technique for selecting a place to eat in a foreign port was to flag a local cab and ask the driver to take me to wherever he took HIS family to eat. After living onboard ship with 400 of my shipmates, I really didn't want to go sit in a bar with them...
@@kevincrosby1760 Hawaii came to my head instantly but I had no idea why. I now realise from your accounts it must have been mentioned in either a Tom Clancy or similar book I read extensively in my youth
@@BigDavie2000 Mine too but I've had it from people who picked up the recipe in Hawaii. So not much of a guess lol. Highly recommend it's delicious.
Seattle is 2.5k miles from Hawaii and yet some of my local gas stations have musubi!
There is no such thing as enjoying spam musubi too much. 🤙🏽🌺💜
Indonesian here! Bakso’s such a staple in this country, whether it is in broth or fried. It’s practically a dish i and a lot of peeps here adore, so thanks for the representation ❤
I hope you do more dishes from Indonesia, there’s so much you can dig and try to cook because every province has different types of cuisine which dates back to ancient history.
As for sambal, some peeps i know say that if there’s no sambal then there’s no challenge 👌🏻
Im from Indonesia too
And I do not know if that is a bowl of bakso 🤔
Because it looks really different from the original
@@gudseygood3622 Yea the egg and the greens are a bit too much. Put some pak choy or scallions and you're set. The taoge is acceptable tho.
Meski yang dimakan memang bakso tapi itu bukan bakso, itu seperti miso (mie ayam bakso).
Saking bangganya orang indo tiap ada masakan yg go inter, resepnya salah kaprahpun di iyain seakan gak ada yg salah.
@@imageez if you buy bakso in Indonesia with a looks like that, the restaurant owner is definitely not Indonesian.
I don't know what it is, but it looks like miso (chicken meatball noodles). the only thing that's the same is the meatballs and maybe the chili sauce. But if you buy miso you will get almost the same look as in the video.
@@Vi-rb7fz Iya, makanya aku kok mikir awal2 ini apa? pas dijelasin Bakso kok kaget. beda banget sama bakso pada umumnya
I absolutely LOVE how Ben PURPOSELY picked musubi as the street food from America. I was SCREAMING out that I was hoping Ben was just messing with them, and here we are. 10/10 video content.
I have so much fun making the food for these videos!
I can imagine that. Need any ideas for other foods to throw them off?
Who would win in a chef battle between you and Ebbers?
@@Anna-uh3jq always looking for more global food inspo!
@@jts3014 only one way to find out....
Kush, you absolute tease
As an Indonesian, im surprised you guys know about some undercover agent spies as a Bakso vendor, because its very true.
Omg, I STILL remember my college roommate making spam musubi in our room. Whenever anyone had a leftover box of white rice from Chinese food they’d bring it to us in exchange for a musibi which she’d make by first adding sesame seeds and other flavorings to the rice. Then she’d hop over to our suitemates to grill sliced spam on one girl’s George Foreman grill. Which would then go on top of the rice and pressed into a small plastic square to shape it, and then wrap it in a seaweed wrap using soy sauce to glue the wrap in place.
She loved making and sharing it because it reminded her of home. And while I can admit, it’s not to my personal taste (I have a finicky stomach) - it came in REALLY handy years later when I found out my boyfriend loved musubi so I made him some just copying what I’d seen her do so many times! Won me biiiiig girlfriend points that say lol!
When I was in college, a friend of mine threw a party for friends and made spam musubi but made them look like sushi. He wouldn't tell them what it was till later on in the party. Once the musubi was gone, he announced what it was to people's shock. They admitted it was delicious and would not have tried it had they known, but now would eat it in the future. 😆
Back in 2011 I went to Indonesia on holiday, and Bakso was an excellent dish to have for breakfast, loved it so much that I had it nearly every day I was there.
Did not expect you'll read the undercover agents trivia, but it is very true 🤣🤣🤣
We always saying if you're doing something "ilegal" and then suddenly there's a new bakso/fried rice vendor in front of your house, then you're basically got caught 👀
hehehe
mungkin akhirnya turis yg datang udah parno duluan kalo ketemu penjual bakso ya
ini beneran jualan atau sedang tugas
So glad to see a brazilian "dish". I laughed so much at Jamie saying " Brasilian Alps" 😂
I didn’t know “Bakso” means bouncy beef balls and I am Indonesian 😩
Hey don't feel bad, I knew it was a Hawaiian sushi, couldn't remember the country and I'm from the USA 😱
I never thought that intelligent agency fun fact will reach Ben either
@@JustASound83 the local meme that went overseas 😂
Hey same here! Hahaha
I know bak means meat (bakkwa, dendeng), but didn't know about it!
To be fair the name is influenced by the hokkien dialect, so yeah it is quite common for indonesian to not know that
The look Ben gave to the camera when BOTH guesses for quentão were european countries, I love him so much lmaooo
Also, it would be great to see an episode (maybe even a series) about the food associated with seasonal festivities around the world. Festa Junina has sooo many typical dishes, and so varied from region to region in Brazil! It would be lovely to see the similar stuff in other parts of the globe.
Do you happen to know when this drink became popular in Brazil? Was it between the world wars perchance?
@@patricktuminaro2248 I believe that it may have emerged during the colonization of Brazil, it would be a derivation of the mulled wine brought by the Portuguese, but as it was difficult to find wine in some parts of Brazil, it ended up being replaced by cachaça.
Melhor época do ano! Vem São Jão!
If a dish includes spam *always* assume it's from Hawaii! Especially if it's also got elements of Japanese cuisine! You'll be right a lot more often than you'll be wrong... They're mad about spam in Hawaii and there's a huge Japanese influence there too.
Yeah, I see spam and think - Hawai'i, Japan (because I saw it a lot at emmymade channel, previously emmymadeinjapan), South Korea (because Maangchi prepared it few times on her channel as well).
Or you can assume it's from Guam. Having lived in both Guam and also Hawaii the amount of spam the Chamorrans eat is astronomical. If my memory serves per capita no other place in the world eats more.
@@HalfUnder well I learned something today, because I had no idea spam was popular in Guam!
@@HalfUnder How does Guam not tip over with all those Spam tins on it?
@@HalfUnder Yesss! I was going to say this! I'm part Chamoru and at one point Guam was the largest spam consumer in the world. Plus we also have a Japanese influence, too :)
The moment I saw the bread with toppings I said "Is that a zapiekanka?" and then ben said it's on a baguette and I was right. Yes they're really popular in poland. I wouldn't really call it 'polish pizza'. Your pronouciation was really good there Ben! Greeting from Poland, Been watching for few years now (since high school if I recall correctly)
Polish guy here as well. And I have to agree - I wouldn't call it a polish pizza, let alone I wouldn't say that Poland is famous for it. I hope it won't make people think that this more or less shallow dish is our nathional one.
100% agree. It's a popular street food but there are way more famous and way more delicious polish dishes.
At this point it is also sad, because while we did have a LOT of delicious zapiekanka places, I feel like they are dying out as kebab stores become more and more common. I would say that they have basically replaced zapiekanki.
I thought it was Belgian for a moment, bc in Belgium they have something called a 'Mitraillette', which is also a baguette, but it has chips, spicy sausages and sauce on it. Ugh, I really want one. 😄
Just as they lifted the cloche I knew I see a zapiekanka, but in fact on the streets I see kebab places everywhere (like someone here already mentioned), even in towns / small cities, or food trucks with burgers, Belgian fries, pita bread with falafel. Zapiekanka was popular street food years ago, now not really.
As a Sorted fan from Northern Ireland I had a good laugh when Jamie asked was it a country. Jamie there was a literal civil war over this, we don’t need burrito gate no.2 😂
I mean to be fair it isn't. We might view ourselves that way in the UK but internationally we are just "The UK".
Omg I’m literally in tears to see a very (nationally) popular festival food from Brazil, because it is my favorite holiday and no foreigners ever talked about it! Thank you 💛🇧🇷
Vem são jão!!! Melhor época do ano!!
Indonesian here, thanks for bringing bakso to your show! And that's a very FANCY bowl of bakso! Here, usually a bowl of bakso only contains:
-the meatballs (usually steamed, although some places may also served fried ones)
-egg noodles and/or vermicelli
-slices of fried tofu (vary between places)
-veggies, usually choi sum (a variation of bok choy) and/or sprouts
-sambal (optional, but some people may literally dump half of its container into their bowl just because they really loves sambal)
-garnish: chopped spring onion, fried shallots, acar (slices of cucumber, carrot, and chili pickled with vinegar)
The addition of tofu already makes it fancy. Their version even has soft boiled eggs :D That's not a 15k Rupiah bowl of food, it's more like a £15 bowl of food.
Come on, this is not how I have ever had Bakso in Indonesia, let alone from a street kaki lima. I call bullshit.
@@timb2606 well try to appreciate their effort to try to make it rather than calling it bullshit
Thank you for sharing! I'd love to give it a go at home and your input will allow me to get the right things!
@@emmet-jamesblondel1708 if your lucky enough, you could get the bakso flour mix in an asian grocery.. you just have to add mince meat and cold water with the mix.. you should really try it!
I choked at the undercover agent bit 🤣
Also, I feel like that (semi?) soft boiled egg is not authentic cos we usually have the hardboiled egg wrapped inside the meatball (called bakso telur).
Can't wait to see more indo dishes on sorted!
Inspired by Jamie's reaction to musubi, I'd love to see an episode like this where the whole thing is United States cuisine to highlight the diversity and challenge the idea of "American food". Hawaiian poi mochi, Southern biscuits and sausage gravy, Cajun jambalaya, New England clam chowder, Tex-Mex fajitas, Navajo frybread/Indian tacos, it's a gigantic place with a huge variety of cuisines.
The only things id consider american are burgers and peanut butter and jelly. Pretty much everything else is heavily influenced by the migrants who brought it with them. Since were almost all here because our ancestors migrated it just a big melting pot
@@GonzoDonzo By that logic only African food is real because everything else was made by migrants.
While I do agree to a point, we Americans have an awful habit of putting our own twist on foods. Might be fun to try and throw them off with Americanized versions of foods. And ce, fried chicken and Biscuits and gravy are totally America foods too! 🤣
@@christophernorton6050 i just remembered ambrosia salad. That would be a fun one for them
Yes agreed! And we know where they have been, so what does that leave 35-40 states and then 100+ versions haha
I've never felt so bad for a contestant in any kind of quiz/contest as i was for Jaimie missing out on hawaii
Holy cow, you got bakso. Been a loyal sortedfood viewer since 2010. But honestly we don't use coriander in the broth, just fried shallot and spring onion. Try more Indonesian food pleaseee, or come visit us. Thanks sortedfood
By the look of it, it's kinda look Mie Ayam and Bakso combined, which something common in Indonesia too, anyway the fun fact is really on point tho😂
As a Brazilian I laughed so hard "when I go skiing", nop, no snow here, but it does get cold especially in the south where I live, my family makes it with wine
It's usually made at festivals celebrating Saint John, Saint Peter and Saint Anthony of Padua, we have bonfires, typical foods, like canjica, pé-de-moleque, paçoca. We celebrate with smaller or bigger parties, even huge events like a month long festival São João de Caruaru, largest Festa Junina (June Festival) in the world and largest open-air regional festival, getting over 3 millions visitors. It's worth a visit.
So happy to see a Brazilian food on the channel! I loved Ben saying quentão even though it was completely wrong lol
Brazil is such a huge country, would be nice to see you guys explore more
When I saw those Spam Musubis I was instantly jealous. There is also a festival in downtown Waikiki called Spam Jam where the high end restaurants will create dishes using spam in tents on the strip. It’s fantastic.
Omg spam jam! Yah, totes real!
It was so freaking great to see a Brazilian street food. I didn't get what it was at first but when Ben started saying the ingredients and said the last one was going to give away where it was, I knew it was from there. ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Just to add, it's a common misconception that because Brazil it's a tropical country we don't have really warm foods as a typical food
So true! I think at least half of our traditional foods make us sweat and are very hot and dense and they just don’t get it 😂
You really put a smile on my face with the zapiekanka. Being polish and watching you guys for a good few years now I was always curious when you would explore polish cuisine. Love your content, love what you do. Keep growing and i wish you all the best ♥️
When I realized it's zapiekanka I had a smile on my face the whole episode.
I'm honestly with Jamie on the Musubi. I was POSITIVE it was Hawaii but the USA is so massive and the cuisine can vary by neighborhood rather than region, that I was sure the Sorted chefs didn't do a USA dish. But then again, Hawaii deserves to be its own country. I was sure it had to be South Korea or a different Pacific island.
OMG! I’m a Chicagoan of Polish decent, and we used to joke about our “Polish pizza.” Had no idea it was a real thing.
I LOVE YOU GUYS FOR THE INDONESIA REPRESENTATION HERE!! Yes bakso is such a staple here, which we eat mostly at all times? Even late nights after a long hard night out, there's a variation of bakso named bakso aci which is to die for to help you sober up. And hushhush, don't blow their covers!. You never know where they might be at
Kijang satu ganti.
As a Puerto Rican, I’m actually really pleased Jaime thinks of Hawaii separate from the states. (Solidarity 🇵🇷)
I mean, so do most people from Hawaii.
Honestly as Czech I often forget Hawaii belongs to USA. I mean the place has culture, how can that be part of USA :D Jokes aside, from what I saw in media, because I never ever got anywhere close to there, I always see it as closer to Asia than US
@@Xemantha The media plays it up. I’ve never been, but I know a lot of Hawaiians currently living in the continental states. From their descriptions, it’s no more different than other tourist stops in the US. There are suburban neighborhoods over there, as well. And there are many extremely interesting separate cultures and natural wonders in the whole country.
As a mainland American I would also consider Hawaii and Puerto Rico as their own countries, it’s not like they asked us to show up and take over the US is occupying those islands.
@@Heiryuu Hawai kinda did after their last king went corrupt.
SO happy to see spam musubi on that table! You literally can get them at any gas station 7-11 (and they honestly are way better than they look, can say that from personal experience). I've been putting messages for some time on a few places that you boys should explore Hawaiian cuisine further than poke bowls and pineapple, there is SO much to do! The best I feel would have to be a Lost and Hungry out here in the islands, but I know that's both expensive and VERY far from home, the furthest you'll have ever travelled (we're basically halfway around the world from each other). But it would be so worth it for you guys to come and see how many cultures have fused together in the cuisine here, as well as our more traditional foods.
Yaaaasss i am so hungry now!
That'd be epic
hoping both Sorted (and myself one day!) go to Hawaii! the food and culture just look so fascinating!!
Really interesting experience every time you mention anything from Poland xD I wasn't looking at the screen, just listening when the Zapiekanka was being described and my brain immediately went "wait, that sounds familiar", which is odd considering I hadn't eaten one in over a decade, but it's still such an iconic street food in my mind. There's a sort of iconic little booth selling them right by the main train station in my city that's been in business for several decades now that literally makes me feel nostalgic every time I walk past it
Honestly you all could literally do a while episode on Street Food from just India. I swear the amount of varieties we have here, can make for multiple episodes.
Maybe even a series? So many amazing delights to discover.
@@SortedFood Yess. A whole series of different Indian or South Asian foods. That would be amazing
@@SortedFood yes. within India the food within different regions is interesting. but that is true of other countries like Italy.
@@SortedFood spin the wheel and do a series of street food on every country... Street food around the world is as varied and different as the national dishes.
Ohh yesssss...India is a culinary universe like no other.
I’m literally making Spam Masubi for a work party tomorrow. 🤣 this was great to see the guy’s reaction. 🤣
Awesome, best of luck with the cooking!
Just had a couple this morning, am I crazy or did they skimp on rice and overdo the seaweed
Be sure to use a Hawaiian teriyaki sauce, not an Asian one... Makes a big difference
Guys'
@@englishatheart you are correct. My apologies
Thanks for representing USA! Knew the spam musubi one right away ☺️. Fairly well known in the US, even if it is specific to Hawaii.
Jay is right, you should do one of these episodes limited to the USA, with state-specific dishes. You could even expand the scoring to 5 points for the target state, 3 points for neighboring states that also have the dish, and 1 point for the otherwise closest state. So, for example, if something is common in both North and South Carolina, but South Carolina slightly more so, If they guessed North Carolina and Georgia, the person who guessed North Carolina would get 3 points. But if they guessed Alabama and Georgia, the person who guessed Georgia would get 1 point.
I think you would need a whole episode for the different regional street foods for the US because each area is very different - this is very entertaining 😂😂
Yeah you could do a Seattle style hot dog (cream cheese and sautéed onions)
@@zackstockdale1948 They are tasty!
Right? Even as an American I feel wrong saying spam musubi is from the USA. It's not; it's from Hawaii lol.
@@aimeevang3145 Hawaii is part of America - each region has their own version of street food (kimchi tacos in Los Angeles). I think it would be hard to find just one street food that would represent everyone
@@aimeevang3145 As an American, I totally agree. Spam masubi is way too region-specific to just call it American. Saying Texas-style Barbeque, spam masubi, Philly Cheese steak, and eggs benedict are all just "American" just feels wrong.
OMG! Zapiekanka... That was transformation fast food in Poland. Loved it in the 90s. Cheap, fast and filling
As an American, I recognized spam musubi right away and thought it was a genius trick. Poor boys, so close but so far. The US is a huge, diverse place with so many cultures all wound together. ♥️
Wow... Bakso?! I'm an Indonesian but almost didn't recognize it. You make the presentation look so fancy. But thanks for bringing that dish to your video. 👍
Please do more Hawaiian food so Jamie is further tortured by his weird hang up on choosing “USA”
I don't think it was a "weird hang-up", so much as a technical limitation/"second level thinking" of the game: One of his comments suggests that the app they use measures from the capital of the chosen country ("that'd be DC"), which makes Hawaii a very high-risk pick, since it is so far from the capital of the US, that if he was wrong and it was a different Asian country, he'd have absolutely no chance of getting the 1 point. Like, if it turned out that it WAS South Korea, he'd have been better off picking PORTUGAL, since that's closer than Washington DC.
So he had two options:
Go with "South Korea", and if it's not right, he's still in contention for the 1 point.
or
Go with Hawaii, and if it's not right, he's screwed.
@@AllWIllFall2Me I’m not even a foodie tho, and I know that ANY dish with spam is either Hawaii or Philippines based, that’s like the two big centers of spam based cooking.
@@spiderdude2099 And as a foodie and food writer, if you asked me the two big centers of Spam-based cooking, I'd have said "Hawaii and South Korea", as South Korea is the second largest producer and consumer of Spam after the US and its territories. I wouldn't have put The Philippines in the top 5 if asked before today. (Upon researching your point, however, I do think it's probably number 3 per capita*. I just had personal bias shaping my opinion, as the Filipino restaurants in my area DON'T typically serve much spam...probably because they don't want to be conflated with the local Hawaiian restaurants by ignorant mainland Americans)
But the fact that both of us pick Asian countries for our #2 spot is the problem/what Jamie was grappling with: Yes, obviously to you and me, Hawaii was correct and should have been picked, but if you're not certain of that (and, as Brits, it's not crazy that they don't know that) every other answer is "An Asian country or pacific Island". (Hell, both Taiwan and Hong Kong both also have Spam dishes) Which means if your goal is to get on the board, rather than get 100%, it's smarter to guess somewhere on the Pacific Rim, since Hawaii has such a big drawback if you're not correct.
@@AllWIllFall2Me ok cool dude. Its really not that major, but I get your reasoning. Hawaii seemed obvious to me and I’m sure many others, he should have went with his gut regardless.
@@AllWIllFall2Me I have heard that spam is also fairly Common in part of brasil
Pretty interesting to hear about Bakso's fun fact.
Words on the street is that if the dish isn't good, there's a chance that the vendor is an intelligence agent. They're doing it merely as a cover instead of for a living after all.
Then again, the quality could vary wildly from one street vendor to another.
Hahahha ready with walkie talkie..
And then there's a story about an agent that make bakso so good, he resigned and opened a bakso restaurant instead
I knew the Musubi and Bakso right on. I've had Musubi, really good stuff there. The Bakso I knew because of the Sambal and because the beef meatballs reminded me of Seitan which I just associate with Indonesia for some reason.
Seitan is not really a big thing in Indonesia, though. Unless you’re vegetarian in which I’d feel sorry for you because our people have such a poor understanding of the diet 😂
I really like this series. It's fun to learn about other countries' food and drink. I also like how deep the guys have to dive down to try to figure out where they might have had something like it. Please do more!
Been watching this channel for so long now, and glad to see Poland again! Zapiekanki are the best of both worlds; pizza and toasties all in one, and on what is essentially a baguette! Glad to see it featured here!
for me, it should be with mushrooms and gouda cheese with a sprinkling of chives and ketchup :D
Finally!! And a great teaser for the lads...as Jamie said, it's not something you'd associate with Poland unless you've been there (eh, Jamie!!) or are Polish. Great series, btw...carry on, boys!
I stopped by a food truck park today (in Oshawa, Canada) and there was a Polish food truck making these!!! I had pulled pork with onions and cheese, topped with garlic sauce and scallions! Absolutely worth it, why have I never seen this before?
As a USA resident, when I see spam, I instantly think Hawaii, so I guessed that one right. Also, my level of geographic knowledge feels equal to a two year old compared to these guys! Does the UK teach better outside of home country geography, or are you all super well traveled? It's quite impressive.
From my experience the geography teaching in the US is a lot more limited than in the UK, we have Europe so close and so much of our history is tied with Europe that we learn about it frequently all through high school. The videos I see online of the US population naming fairly well known countries incorrectly would lead me to believe that isn't true overseas, I think a lot of the US school teaching is insular and therefore you guys learn less about countries overseas :) There are some great channels if you are interested in seeing more of the world including some of the most remote places - Drew Binsky jumps to mind immediately :)
I was super confused because Spam Musubi is popular in Japan, Korea, probably the Philippines, and Hawaii to my knowledge but my immediate thought was Hawaii. My grandmother lived there for 10 years and she would make me Spam Fried Rice and she LOVES Spam musubi
To be fair, as a Korean American I know we like to use spam in things like stews (like they mentioned, another iconic use for spam is in kimchi stew, which is absolutely iconic), but I know it's less common in rolls, at least from what I've known. Of course, that's just my personal experience, so it's entirely possible other people have had different experiences, but the first thing I thought of when I saw it was "that's definitely a Hawaiian dish"
It also comes to our available foods and restaurants. UK is famously bad for it's own cuisine (excluding full English breakfast). However we have culinary menus from the world over. negatively because of the old timey empire, positively because we are a very modern international country (and let's hope it stays that way!). So essentially, we have cuisine knowledge: because we have vast cuisine choices locally.
So the second I saw the first one I called out Poland excitedly. Mind you, it’s well after 2am here in Melbourne, but as a child I visited Poland in the 1980’s and I ate these on the streets. Back then it was only cheese, mushrooms and ketchup. The baguettes were way thinner then too, but gosh they were good. ❤
good going on the Bakso! that bowl looked pretty legit, sans the fried shallots. but nothing compares to the real deal, you HAVE to experience authentic Indonesian street food to know what it really tastes like :)
This has got to be one of my favorite SF vids. Probably cuz I'm from Hawaii and it features spam musubi. I never tire of watching Jamie's reaction to hearing the correct answer is America. 🤣 Also, side note, musubi's pronunciation is more like saying "one, two, three" that kind of cadence. Currently Ebbers (and so many people online) pronounce the middle syllable as if they're surprised. 🤣 "mu su😯 bi" or rushed "mu su🏃♂️ bi." Hahaha. Just keep the beat even when saying it. 😄
I have got to say I was excited when you included musubi! I am not Hawaiian. But I had it at a food truck once, fell in absolute love with it and now make it at home regularly. It's one of my favorite lunches.
My Hawaiian kiddo just shook his head when Jamie chose South Korea. I feel a Hawaiian goody bag from the US is in the future. Win win 😉
I've been trying for a few months. The shipping is initially 150 dollars to ship to UK from the company I order poi, mochi crunch, crack seeds, etc. The only thing I think would be worth shipping to them is Aloha Shoyu, but they don't accept gifts per the website. I desperately wanted to see them eat li hing mui for poker face.
@@LeilaniLovesElephants There are a couple local stores and crack stores on Kauai that you can pay for your purchase online. Then a local will pick it up, pack it, and ship it to you Internationally from the local shipping center like DHL. Its about half the cost. They usually charge $15 to $25 USD for the service. Companies charge the price of the items, tax, international shipping, then outrageous in house "handling fees". Yes like Great Britain its an island and almost everything is important so prices are higher. However $150 is retail robbery. If you're truly interested. Im happy to give you a few websites of local families that you can work with.
@@timgibson7597 many mahalos! 🤙🏽🌺💜
Jamie is right, there is no such thing as an open sandwich. In the Netherlands we simply call it a sandwich. But on the other hand: we’re weird and put chocolate sprinkles (hagelslag) on our sandwiches. So 🤷🏼♀️
nothing wrong with dark chocolate on savoury food. I once had a chocolate chicken dish. That was weird, but tasted quite good.
over the years the description of several sandwiches included "open'. the hot brown was an open sandwich. by way best hot brown was not at Louisville brown hotel but rather Galt house in the 80s also in Louisville.
I bought an "open faced" steak sandwich not that long ago... just a full steak on a piece of toasted bread
Cheers for the influence, what you call hagelslag / muisjes is what we call meses in Indonesia now.
Still a breakfast staple aswell.
we Indonesian also love chocolate sprinkles, maybe because the Dutch have a long history here 😂
That bakso vendor fun fact is so funny. 😂😂😂
As Indonesian, yes I can confirm that it is true. Bakso cart vendor were linked to undercover agent, whether as a joke or as a true event. We usually joke about it by saying "Abang tukang bakso bawa walkie talkie." Means "the bakso cart vendor having a walkie talkie" which symbolize intelligence agent.
If someone write something bad about the government on social media, people would jokingly reply "is there any bakso vendor in front of your house yet?"
Spam Musubi is still very popular in Okinawa, Japan. It is widely available including Family Mart, Lawson's and other convenience stores that all serve delicious, quick food.
Glad Indonesia finally shows up again, please explore my beloved Indonesian cuisine more 👍
The trendy food in the US right now is Korean. I think there is a chance Indonesian will be next.
🆗
Lolll great job Ebbers for searching the fun fact about Bakso 🤣🤣🤣
I love episodes like this. I was spot on with Hawaii and Indonesia (although, to be fair, anytime I see a dish that is potentially Asian and European inspired that I don't know Indonesia is my default guess). I was in the right part of the world with the last one and thought it would be some kind of Rum but couldn't pinpoint it. I am livid that I missed the Polish one because I'm fairly certain a Polish friend made a reference to it when I made them similar after a long night.
That style meatball is pretty common all over SEA, so the only reason I guessed Indonesia is because I’d never seen that particular dish in Thailand or Laos and Vietnamese food just looks different.
Im from Indonesia too
And I do not know if that is a bowl of bakso 🤔
Because it looks really different from the original bakso.
@@gudseygood3622 mungkin krn sayurannya. sayur yg dipake di situ beda ama di indo. agak ragu sih pas liat daging bulet2, tp sayurnya cerah warna-warni gitu ... wkwk
@@ffine1148
Bedo pol, malah koyok panganan liyo
@@gudseygood3622 biasanya emg kalo sayurnya g ada, diganti ama yg mirip2 dan ada di sana. kek sawi ganti selada gitu.

Hei kowe iso boso jowo Ra?
11:45 LMAOOO That point of meatball vendors being undercover government agents is so true and pretty much a meme here.
Watch out if there's an unfamiliar, young-ish male suddenly selling meatballs on a cart in your neighbourhood, chances are he's on a stakeout because one of your neighbours is under suspicion of being a drug cartel or terrorist.
Shout out to all the abang tukang bakso out there.
Ready with walkie talkie... god that part is literally driving me laugh too hard
I'm crazy about this channel. So much fun and makes me care more about my own cooking.
I want to thank you for your amazing consistent content it brings me incredible joy
Loved this we need more of this series as you can play along at home ❤
I saw this on Sunday before it got replaced by an ad video :P
Yeah…as someone who doesn’t drink wine, I couldn’t have cared less about that video! I was bitterly disappointed when this got took down!
A cooking channel having a full-length ad for a drug company was weird.
They took down the wrong video.
OMG YOU GUYS FEATURING BAKSO FROM INDONESIA, i know it's bakso from the chilli sauce alone and when ben said it's beef meatball you guys solidify my guess
you guys must try to cook dishes from Indonesia you will have fun with it since traditional savory dishes have SO MANY SPICES and indonesia sweet dessert might suprices you guys 😆
I love this video and keep coming back for it every so often. As a Brazilian person I have to recommend Canjica and Tapioca as dishes for this format. Canjica is not so much of a street food but it is delish and different and Tapioca is everywhere (super healthy too). Hope you guys make more videos, I simply love you all!
I love this game and your marvelous channel! Thanks for the midweek lift!
The amount of variety on your channel keeps me coming back for every new video you put out. Great job, as always!
Thanks so much Gary - you legend!
love the Brazilian representation there ❤️ can't say I've ever had quentão made with cachaça, just with wine and vodka!
I only had with cachaça, but never with apple.
I'm from SP and there it's always made with wine, some fruits and spices if you're being fancy and cachaça to put some alcohol back in
I now live in the south and here it's usually just hot wine with either eggnog or marshmallow
@@miiamoore marshmallow? that's crazy! I'm from parana, now living in SC, and think I've always had it with wine and vodka, plus some spices like cinnamon
@@brazilianana oh cool! I live in curitiba
Nas feirinhas de inverno, como não pode álcool, tem o marshmallow pra acompanhar e adoçar
as a USA fan of Sorted I recognized 2 immediately and was laughing the whole time
Love this format! Please, please do more!!
I actually had Spam Musubi at Epcot during their food and wine festival this year, at a Hawaii food stand, so I knew the country already on that one. Definitely one of the more interesting ones I tried during that trip
Woop woop, bakso represent!! Favorite "snack" esp when raining. Tbh, we don't serve it like you did 😁 Please explore more of Indonesian food. Would love it!
my favorite is mie ayam! I don't really like bakso tbh 🤣
@@itsdragherjade omg mie ayam is also so good!! I'd eat bakso with rice when i feel under the weather and need something warm 😆 bakso is so versatile, they sell fried/ grill bakso too when i was in high school
I love love love this format. And maybe I love it more because I seem to be pretty good at it. Thanks to you, Sorted Food, for giving me such well rounded food knowledge so that I can be good at this game 😍☺
I'd just like to say thank you for rekindling my passion for cooking. I've started to binge watch dozens of your videos and was inspired by how much fun you always have with what you do. I made a large Bolognese the other night and after toiling for a few hours my SO exclaimed it was the most flavourful dish I'd made in a really long time and I can't wait to use the leftovers in a lasagne for tomorrow night's dinner!
Brazil has sooooo much food variety in the different regions that can blow your mind!
7:09 c'mon Jamie!...The USA is a hugely diverse place. Texas BBQ, New England seafood, Lousiana Creole, Hawaiin Poke...it's all American, and most Americans would call it such independently of which part of the country it's from. It's all just a huge melting pot of flavours in the end. I hope you don't think that "American food" is just hamburgers, hot dogs and pizza!
Spam Musubi is my favorite snack of all time. So glad to see it represented
Love this series!
Can we all just appreciate Ben’s hosting skills and remembering all those facts!
It always takes me twice as long to watch these videos because I end up opening google maps and playing along 🤣
More pls,these are great! We get to discover so many new food/drinks!
I love these videos, I learn a bunch, please continue to make these
I'd love to see picarones from Peru! They're round doughnut-type fritters made with sweet potato and doused in a cinnamon/honey syrup. They're served in little paper dishes, and if you're lucky, the person selling them will give you a toothpick with which to eat them...otherwise BYOF (bring your own fork). Sticky, sweet, crunchy, fatty...best hot out of the oil.
I cannot wait for the day that one of them gets it spot on (and the celebration that will follow 😂) please do this again, it’s so interesting!
The Street Food and A-Z Global Food series are my new favourites. More please!
Omg never been so early! Love you guys 😭😭
I scarred my co-workers, yelling the answer for number 2. Also my answer would have straight been hawaii for it.
Love this 😂
My dog jumped when I yelled Hawaii!
As I am always saying here, Barry wins it all (s2 Baaz). Brazilian here and I simply love how Ben says Quentao, I dont drink alcohol but love a virgin Quentao, a strong and spicy ginger tea essentially. Thanks for featuring something from my country. Love you guys!
As soon as I saw the spam in nori I knew what it was and where it's from. I love it, its fantastic, I've made it at home despite never having been there. So so good and easy.
Oh! Throw some egg in there, boom breakfast noms!
This is the first time i would have ever won in a thing like this, really happy bout that. Lulu Hawaiian Grill has a pretty decent Spam Musubi
🌴🌺Aloha from Hawaii🍍🍹
I recognized the Spam Musubi immediately, it's available everywhere here & I eat it all the time🍙🍙🍙 It's a favorite snack here. While most are made with spam you can also get it with hot dogs or teriyaki chicken as well.
I will never get over Jamie's reaction to where spam musubi was from; is the US not a non-UK country, too? There's plenty of bland food across our amber plains, but plenty of tasty food mixed in. Mmm, Kentucky barbeque.
This is a fun new segment, keep them coming!
As someone who grew up in Hawaii and immediately recognized spam musubi, I cracked up when they said "girth-y sushi" 😂
I love this game. I even knew the Spam Masubi was from Hawaii, and I don't eat Spam or Nori.
Love these episodes!
Love these games! I guessed Hawaii but can understand Jamie being reluctant to say USA.
The 'big hot one' sounds like it's worth going to Brazil to try or for the guys to show us how to mix one up in the kitchen.
From what I've seen, Brazil has a cuisine that is not widely seen in the western world but is highly compatible with it. It would be interesting to see more South American influences make their way into food culture that is typically dominated by Asian, Italian and Indian notes.
Oh this festival that they mentioned has a full menu of traditional foods hahah it’d be great!
