    The buko salad is the one that your Filipino auntie casually eats at the family reunion while she asks you awkward questions like "When are you getting married?" or "Why are you still single?"

      These kind of people need to learn some manner and some logic. Really..
      asking someone's marriage or career is soooo RUDE. IMPOLITE.
      Plus, logically, marriage is not that important. And YOU NEED TO READY BEFORE U MARRY SOMEONE. Dont u just marry in your 20s or even in your teenage time just because you can.
      Some ppl marry in their 30s.
      Yes, marriage is important. But not that important. i mean like.. YOU NEED TO MARRY. But it's up to you when to marry. simple logic.
      Southeast Asians need to learn about manner n logic. smh

    Buko salad is also best with cheese! Saltiness of the cheese balanced out the sweetness of the buko salad ❤️.

    Hi Beryl! :) I really loved this series (all in all: your effort for these dishes delights my day!)
    As a Swiss citizen I was a little sad about the Bavarian sausage. I'm aware that you can't buy cervelat (which is the Swiss sausage you need for a Wurstsalat) in the US, but in fact, this sausage really is the most important ingredient of the salad. For the next time, maybe a lyoner wurst will make it taste more like cervelat. I just wish I could have sent you one, so you could taste the real Wurstsalat (because It will be soooo different from the one you made).
    Thanks for your amazing videos, I love them and will for sure keep watching them :)

      It looked a lot like "Weißwurst" which I hope it wasn't. Even though it is a South German, Swiss and Austrian thing I have never ever seen anyone use that kind of sausage anywhere I've been. Where I am from most people use Lyoner or maybe Frankfurter. But never anything like what she used...

      was about to say the same. i think closest that comes to a cervelat in US is what you'd call bologna (baloney? not sure how it's spelled) which i think is available everywhere in the US. Beryl, you should definitely try this dish again with the right kind of sausage :)

Lyoner isn't a thing in the US either.

    Hey Beryl, hey everyone,
    Here in France we often have a "salade chèvre miel" (ie honey goat salad). It's a sweet and salty salad.
    Basically, you take lamb's lettuce leaves and you mix it with nuts and raisins (almond and other dried fruits may also be used). Some families add chopped onions.
    For the dressing, mix 1 or 2 table spoons of honey, 1 table spoon of oil, 1 table spoon of vinegar and 1 table spoon of balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper.
    Put a few slices of goat cheese on a piece of bread and put it in the oven/microwave of 5-10minutes.
    Take the salade, pur de dressing, add the hot piece of bread, a bit of extra honey and envoy.
    Hope some of you may try this recipe !

    Oh nice a swiss dish! But as a Swiss I need to clarify some things: Switzerland ist small, yes. But still, there big cultural differences between the language areas in Switzerland. So the shown Wurst-Salad actually is mostly fancied by the swissgermans. The french, italian und romansch part have their own dishes and favorised salads.
    For me as a person with roots in Ticino (italian part of Switzerland) I can tell you this about salads: Back in the days they where not that much cummon there. But my grandmother still made one we really enjoyed: red beans, parsley, cellery stalk, tuna (can) and a balsamico vinegar dressing. The ticinesian dishes are to north italian kitchen and are not that much similar to the swissgerman food culture. Same counts for the other language parts in Switzerland. ;)

    Hi. I'm Beryl and I'm a filipino. Other filipino party/fiesta salads would be buko pandan and the generic ones like chicken macaroni and chicken potato salads. But for ordinary days we make different savory and/or sour ensaladas and eat them as side dishes with our staple rice and protein meals. Depending on the region and the availability of the main ingredients we have various salads using seaweed, green mango, jackfruit, eggplant, green papaya, bitter melon, radish, salted egg, okra, etc.

We've noticed so many similarities when cooking! Particularly soups and stews. We're friends to another mixed nationalities couple (he's from Peru and she's from Ukraine). They've noticed the same thing. Many, many dishes are very alike! It's just cilantro or lime juice or maybe an ingredient like russian sausages or something traditional from the region that tells the dishes apart.

    I grew up with Filipino Fruit Salad where you have to balance the evaporated and condensed milk sweetness and thickness as like it's sauce (or if you can afford the whipped cream or creamer to replaced the evap, go! You have to have a freshly grinded coconut meat, nata de coco, macapuno (its just like coconut meat but lighter, sweetened and softer)

    Hello from Croatia
    Here is the salad my grandma used to make:
    Get a big head of lettuce,
    On a stove heat the vinegar (they used apple or alcohol one), put chopped bacon in hot vinegar (salty, smoked and dried kind)
    Let it "fry" a bit and pour it over the fresh roughly chopped lettuce. Eat while stil hot :)
    It is best over the winter sorts of lettuce because it softens it. I love sour and salty taste with a hint of smoke aroma.

    In Sweden we have a salad similar to the Filipino dessert salad. It’s a mayonnaise fruit salad called “Mimosa salad”. It contains mustard and we eat it as a side dish, typically to cold meat at Christmas. Quite strange!

      So I'm from Wisconsin but live in Taiwan and have quite a few Filipino friends at my church and they make buko salad quite often... It hits the spot when you're craving a midwestern dessert salad, but the textures are COMPLETELY different! They put a ton of chewy things in and add a mild cheese to it! It's much more of a chewing experience than midwestern dessert salads haha

    I‘m from the southwest of Germany (pretty near Switzerland) and Wurstsalat is probably my favorite childhood food. It reminds me of hot summer nights and helping my grandparents or mom prepare it - blood sausage all the way! (And sometimes my grandpa‘s favorite Swiss cheese, Romadur). So so happy to see this here!

      It's definitely a summer dish. Also something people bring to family potlucks, camping etc. Some also eat it as a side dish when grilling even more sausage. 😅

    The only weird salad I can think of is ambrosia salad, which pops up at potlucks and funeral luncheons from time to time. Local to me would be the Michigan salad, which is a pretty basic green leaf salad with dried cherries, blue cheese, vinnaigrette(especially raspberry or mustard), apples, sometimes chicken, often walnuts.

    We have in Brazil the russian salad, that is basically beets, potatoes, carrots, onions, mayo, if you like onions and parsley. Nice and cold on a summer day, really refreshing.
    And we have our potato salad, just remove the beets and add peas.
    Salpicão is a type of salad. With pulled chicken breast, a mix of beets, carrots ( use a salamander to shred it) onions, tomatoes, some people use chipped hardboiled egg, and use the cilantro, green onions and parsley. It is a staple on the majority of the holidays, like Christmas, New Years, easter... Any family gathering lol..
