@Napoléon Bonaparte eso es cierto, pero también es un tema extenso y complicado que este chico no va a invertir en investigar.

También está lo de la rosca que hizo de España. En México es tradición hacerla el 6 de enero y a quien le sale el niño paga los tamales el 2 de febrero; así que es la misma tradición que en España, pero diferente a la vez.

A super common part of Australian christmas food are prawns. They're in season around Christmas and given that most people in Australia live within like 50km of the coast most places have amazing fresh prawns available for shockingly cheap. Also, I don't know what the prawns are readily available in winter in norther europe, but they're quite large and almost sweet. Typically served with a bunch of sauces to dip them into. Another common item is a leg of ham. Also, the largest Christmas meal in Australia tends to be lunch. Lots of family relaxing in the heat with some beers/wine and punch for the kids sharing good food and good stories. Also, Christmas Pudding is pretty common here like in the UK.

I'm from Québec and no one I know has the same family recipe for tourtiere but homemade literally doesn't compare to what we find in grocery stores which is more akin to the recipe you used. My family makes it in a huge oval roaster, there's a layer of dough all around and over it (the dough contributes hugely to flavour so that's a whole Thing) and the filling is made up of poultry and beef chunks marinated overnight + diced potatoes. The dish takes 4-6 hours to cook in the oven depending on whether you want to interior to be more of a sauce-y stew or not.

[@pixelc9560]

Definitely needs a meat mixture and to be eaten with pickled items

I'm so glad that you actually tried the "roscón de reyes"! But actually it doesn't have a baby Jesus figure but a figure of one of the three "reyes magos" (Melchor, Gaspar and Baltasar) and of course a bean. The poem of the "roscón de reyes" says (in spanish): He aquí el roscón de Reyes tradición de un gran banquete en el cual hay dos sorpresas para los que tengan suerte. En él hay muy bien ocultas una haba y una figura, el que lo vaya a cortar hágalo sin travesuras. Quien en la boca se encuentre una cosa un tanto dura a lo peor es la haba o a lo mejor la figura. Si es la haba lo encontrado este postre pagarás mas si ello es la figura coronado y Rey serás. In english: Here is the roscón de reyes tradition of a great banquet in which there are two surprises for those who are lucky. In it there are very well hidden a bean and a figure, the one who is going to cut it do it without mischief. who is in the mouth a somewhat hard thing the worst is the broad bean Or maybe the figure. If it's the bean found it this dessert you will pay but if it is the figure crowned and King you will be.

[@NYChica23]

In Mexico, it comes with a baby Jesus figurine, and whoever finds it pays for the tamales on February 2nd, which is the feast day of the Virgin of the Candelaria. And yes, I can verify that making it is no easy feat, because when I was growing up, there were no Mexican bakeries in NYC, so my mom made it by hand, and it was a process

[@Just_Blue24]

@NYChica23 that's really cool!

[@TakBonez]

As a non Hispanic Californian, can confirm Tamles are amazing. Some regions of Mexico wrap the Tamles in Banana Leaf instead of Corn Husk. A street vendor near a friend's house does huge tamales wrapped in Banana Leaf.

[@thevagoscrewoficial]

That kind of tamales wrapped in banana leaf they’re called “tamales oaxaqueños”

[@TakBonez]

@@thevagoscrewoficial thx for the info, if you're ever in San Diego that street vendor is on 36th and University. Usually on the weekends, but sometimes weeknights. The Tamles are seriously burrito size, they also do churrohs, plantains, elotes, and bacon wrapped hotdogs.

@@TakBonez thanks bro, I’m from Mexico, but I appreciate that info, I’ll eat there when I’ll be in San Diego!

Considering most of central américa uses plantain leaf, the corn leaf ones are the ones that need the specification

[@danmur2797]

​@@malxireIn Mexico most of the country has traditionally used corn husks for tamales. Its only in southern coastal states (like Oaxaca) that use the banana leaf. From around Puebla going north though, its all mostly corn husk wrapped tamales.

[@MEDeLaunais]

Didn't see it in the comments but just a little clarification about your dish from Canada: you actually baked a "meat pie", while still a very popular Canadian dish, is not a traditional "Tourtière". The "Tourtière" is made out of wild meat (moose, deer, hare, etc.) diced out into cubes, mix with potatoes, also into cubes, and spices, into a very large crust and cooked for more than 5 hours. I would suggest you try it too! ;) Still, the dish is very "meaty" but more delicious in my opinion!

[@Xerxes2005]

Both are traditional tourtière. It's not like Lac-Saint-Jean owns the term.

[@viperspitt]

We didn’t have Brazil in this video so i wanted to share a bit of our culture here, (I’m Brazilian and Colombian so i’m glad Colombia was included), we usually eat “feijoada” with “farofa”. Farofa is a powder which i’m PRETTY SURE is made out of corn and whatever else and feijoada is a dish with black beans, rice and pork (which we call linguiça). Rice and beans are a part of our everyday life, and for dessert we eat “brigadeiros” a simple little chocolate candy shaped like a cupcake but VERY VERY tiny. I personally don’t like them but like half of the population LOVES those. We use condensed milk, melted chocolate and chocolate sprinkles and freeze it for about 10-30 minutes. Anyways happy new year

[@liamicheal1199]

Well hes talking about chrismas dishes and for chrismas in brazil we usually just make turkey/chicken and panetone i mean yes brigadeiros and rice and beans are really important for your culture but that isnt everything we have a lot of cheeses we have a lot of barbecues and its rlly nice to see your culture (food whise) be more than rice and beans

[@helenejapa]

Also, farofa is made with cassava flour. I was hoping he would do "farofa de passas" (it's with raisins), but it's more of a side dish, so I see why he didn't. Christmas food is usually the turkey, and the typical foods are the side dishes (so farofa, salpicão, arroz de lentilha...) Would be interesting, though, to see his opinion on them.

[@CaioFonseca82]

You just said nonsense, in Brazil we don't eat feijoada with farofa at Christmas, it's roast turkey and pork tenderloin with pineapple.

[@midowo]

so sad we couldn't see brazil since almost all of the christmas food comes from colonial and globalized cultures, it is common for us to eat panetonne, french toast, roast turkey/chester(which is literally just chicken but expensive). Some authentic recipies i can think of are: Pavê: a desert made with layered pastry cream and ladyfingers/maizena (cornstarch) cookies/cake, very similar to tiramisu but actually pavê pre-dates it. The cream has a base of milk, condensed milk and cornstarch, however you can go wherever your mind takes you with the flavor, vanilla, chocolate, chocolate chunks, leite ninho (powdered milk), or you can use any kind of cream you want, brigadeiro, doce de leite, flavored whipped cream, anything's alright, the cookies or cake are dipped or basted in syrup, milk mixed with condensed milk or just milk if it is too sweet for you, then you start layering, starting and ending with the cream, once you have enough layers you can finish it with whipped cream and shaved chocolate. Salpicão: a mixed shreded chicken breast, carrot, corn, green beans/olives and mayo salad mixed with batata palha (tiny and thin crispy potato sticks) right before serving, so they don't get soggy. Some people also use raisins but it is a very polarizing ingredient, my family for instance doesn't use it. Me and my family also snack on pão de queijo filled with many kinds of meat (turkey, chester or roast pork loin) since we don't actually do a big meal. Traditionally in Brazil people celebrate christmas eve in the night of the 24th of december, and once the clock hits midnight and the day turns to the 25th they sit togheter and eat the ceia (last meal of the day) together, but me and my family only get together on christamas eve to drink and snack, we leave the actual big meal for a family lunch on the 25th.

Oh man this brought back memories. I used to work for an alcoholic beverage company in South Florida for over a decade and there’s actually a very specific sweet red wine that you are supposed to use to make that Jamaican spice fruit cake. Every year at holiday time dozens of Jamaicans would come into the store looking for this damn red wine that you can only buy in Jamaica and we always had to try to figure out the best substitutes to recommend because they have to start making this fruit marinade like a month in advance. I remember that pain in the ass every year.

An excellent series man! A lot of delicious dishes that I need to try!

[@gliptodonte_]

Argentinian here. The classic Vitel Toné sauce consists only of: tuna, anchovies, mayonnaise, and ,very important: cream!. That's how is made in most of the houses (mustard, lemon, and other ingredients are an extra, and not very common). IMHO that simple mix of the 4 basic ingredients is one of those combinations that look strange first, but work surprisingly well. Great video!

[@HamelinSong]

As per usual, when dishes are exported from Italy, first thing they do is to add cream 😂

[@CricTory17]

Interesting Christmas pudding recipe. I've never heard of anyone putting rosemary in theirs, and usually we soak the fruit in brandy. The alcohol means we can let it age; often we make Christmas pudding a year ahead of eating! It gives the flavour a lot more complexity.

The Argentinian dish is in fact an Italian dish, vitello tonnato. And isn't the German Christmas dish roasted goose? Or Christstollen, if you want the Christmas desert. Vanillekipferl are the cookies that one bakes during the Advent period, you can have them at Christmas, but they are not THE Christmas dish.

[@Alina_the_Hedgehog]

I mean, there can be multiple traditional Christmas dishes for every country. "Christmas food" doesn't have to be the main feast. It's just what people traditionally eat around that time. And I don't know where you got the part with the roasted goose. The Christmas feast in Germany depends very much on the region, and very often even family tradition. In a lot of cases, the East-West-split still shows culinary culture. The traditional Christmas feast for my family has always been roasted hare with red cabbage and Thuringian-style potato dumplings. Yes, many other families have roasted goose or canard (duck) but some types of fancy meat are still too expensive for many East German families.

Also, for Jamaican Christmas cake! I steep fruit ALL YEAR and have done so for many years. I am also white as a sheet and live in SoCal ... it is something that everyone I know loves and wants for Christmas.

[@marcelareginasantos1009]

I love how Brazilian cuisine is so diverse, the olliebollen looks like our "bolinho de chuva" (something like rain muffins I think 😅) But we powder it with a mix of sugar and cinnamon, and we have some coffee too, it's delicious ❤

[@sapphire22011]

I think in Japan part of the reason KFC is popular is because a lot of homes don't have an oven due to space limitations, to cool a bird or roast joint in so the KFC became popular. Apparently it has to be ordered months in advance also as it sells out so fast.

@@ApolloniaPol Besides sarmale, in Romania we have another dish similar to what you call Olivier. It's called "salată boeuf". I think Italians call it "insalata russa" (russian salad). As you can see, the romanian food is a mix with influences from the Balkans, but there are slavic influences too. We are latin people surrounded by slavs :)

[@chrisredline1697]

Not gonna lie, if someone offered to let me try different Christmas food from around the world the month of December, I WOULD DO IT IN A HEARTBEAT!!!!! My family and I try to keep a bunch of traditional recipes alive each year. Mostly Ukranian and Russian. Our Halupki is almost identical to that Romanian dish at the end but ours has a red sauce in it. Hats off to the poppy seed and nut rolls, along with the Italian sweet bread, we have a local bakery that still makes both! My personal favorite dish is Russian mushroom potato soup, I make about 6 quarts for Christmas eve and I am typically the one who finishes it all off over the course of the next several days! This year I desperately want to make UK figgy pudding, but I dont know if I am going to be able to find suet in time...

[@vintagelaidbackhippie465]

God Bless and Merry Christmas! Thank you for putting them all together fun to watch and very unique ideas you come up with. America; bake and mash sweet potatoes place in baking dish, top with crumble of chopped pecans brown sugar, butter , and little flour. Bake 350f for about 30 minutes. That is it very simple. No marshmellows that was the crazy 1950's my goodness what the 50's did with jello is horriffic lol. Peace

If you ever would like to review "traditional German food" again, for Christmas, I would really recommend Stollen. It is a kind of fruit bread, usually made with raisins and a lot of spices, and a very typical East German Christmas treat. There are also variants without raisins or with marzipan or with nuts. Selling a Stollen under the name "Dresden Stollen" ("Dresdner Stollen" in German) is only allowed if you have a certificate - that's how deeply rooted it is in (East) German culinary culture
