[@ThePomskysPalace]

@@lorenzothomas2128 For meat dishes, try a platter that contains Tibs (fried beef), dorowot is our countries signature dish, it takes many hours to prep but only has a few ingredients, it translates to spicy chicken stew. You can try Sega Wot which is the same but made with beef. All vegan platters are also good, and most meet options have a vegan option made with lentils or chickpeas. And as a much, order some buna after your meal. Ethiopians always finish our food with a thick cup of sweet but black coffee..of course, you can get milk but if you want the full experience, order a cup of buna to wash it down! ❤️🇪🇹

Sonny, there are several types of cardamom; what you have found in Ethiopia is the Ethiopian False Cardamom or Korerima. Used almost exclusively in Ethiopia, It is a different species from the Green Cardamom and Black Cardamom found in South Asian cooking. The 'icy-hot' flavor you describe differentiates Korerima from Green/Black Cardamom.

[@ebellyfish4256]

I think it is so interesting that cardamom is featured in old recipes from places such as Iran and India, and yet it also was adopted heavily in Scandinavia. Personally, I love the flavor.

[@herzogsbuick]

I was wondering why it didn't look like my black cardamom pods!

[@herzogsbuick]

@@ebellyfish4256 Or something like galangal, which was very popular in Europe in 500 years ago, basically disappeared from the western palette whereas cardamom is still there. I cook with it occasionally for certain southeast Asian soups, and have to go to specific stores to buy it.

Korerima is for me the best aromatic smell in Ethiopian spices.

[@melissadunton3534]

[@AP-op4rc]

It’s awesome too that he comes from such a humble place. He’s never elitist or condescending. Always open minded and appreciative. Definitely more relatable to the average person, and like you said, a great ambassador.

[@julienfroidevaux1143]

​@@AP-op4rcReally , is he that way with vegan food ? I think he may even get off on killing animals in the most brutal way . In one video he eats a skinned alive fish while been bbq alive, squirming in horrific pain . This doesn't sound to humble to me does it ?

[@AP-op4rc]

@@julienfroidevaux1143 Dude he’s eaten tons of vegetarian dishes. Also in some countries like Japan, cooking live seafood in this way is very common and not seen as taboo, or strange. It is strange to me, and I understand why it is strange and cruel to others as well. But approaching other cultures and styles of preparation without passing judgement or being condescending is definitely a demonstration of open mindedness and humility. You clearly don’t agree with it and I respect that opinion. Like I said. I don’t approve of or would partake in some of these dishes. But I also can understand why a journalist would want to experience and document such things as they are the norm in other places. I don’t think he “gets off” on killing animals as he is almost never the one to actually do it. More often he is observing traditions of other cultures. Judge away but keep in mind that what is normal for you, simply is not for everyone else on this planet.

I have lived in Addis all my life and i have never had that whole mix at the beginning. I think she made fifir out of shiro 😁. It has got to be her own thing. I like that he started from the simplest of places but I am worried he might not have had the right injera. It is usually very sour and might not even be made from teff at places like this for the sake of profit. Hope he goes to a nice place as well. And don't worry to much about the carb, injera is gluten free.

[@meganhey2582]

Actually there is a history between Mexico and Ethiopia. Mexico helped Ethiopia in a time of need and Ethiopia also helped Mexico in a time of need. There is a square in Ethiopia called Mexico, and there is also a square in Mexico called Ethiopia because the previous Emperor was well connected to the past leaders of Mexico and had a ton of respect for each other.

Sonny calling the greens cabbage is hilarious 😂😂

[@musicspeakstoashley]

A lot of places calls cabbage greens but he actually said cabbage and greens

[@KainYusanagi]

@@musicspeakstoashley More specifically, any edible green plant leaf that is eaten can be referred to as "greens" (which is a further shortening of the term "leafy greens"). Also, he said "Tastes somewhere between cabbage and collard greens" before the next stop, where he called the greens "cabbage".

[@Fluuuv]

What is the correct name?

[@KainYusanagi]

@@Fluuuv From my understanding, the meals he ate with greens used Gomen Wat, which is usually a mix of collard greens, but especially cabbage and kale. Collard greens are any of the leafy greens of the family brassica oleracea, which includes cabbage, broccoli, kale, and cauliflower, and the term "Collard" is derived from the word "colewort", meaning any of the genus Brassica that do not develop heads (eg. cauliflower and broccoli both do, so would not traditionally be considered collard greens, even though the leaves are edible). So, it's not totally incorrect for him to call them cabbage, since it's likely to be a component (and his sense of smell could be telling him that it's cabbage, as well), but it's probably not entirely correct, either, since it's usually cabbage and kale.
