Chicken Pudding and Other Desserts Around the World

We’re sampling seven desserts in seven countries in the latest episode of “Around the World.” Great Big Story senior producer/dessert fiend Beryl Shereshewsky likes to surprise us. So she went on a global dessert hunt and found some of the sweetest treats the world has to offer. Among them: Turkey’s tavuk göğsü, aka, chicken pudding; alegría, a sweet Colombian coconut delight; wagashi, an intricate Japanese confection that’s almost too pretty to eat; and France’s gâteau à la broche, cake cooked over an open fire. The one thing all of these desserts have in common? Lots of yum.

The chicken in chicken pudding isnt just there for show, it acts as gelatine and it is there to thicken the dessert! Nowadays we dont need chicken breast so you can see cheaper or boxed versions with more startch/gelatine as a substitute. (I suppose it was used because it was dry when cooked and was stringy after pulling it. Dry chicken isnt pleasant to eat but it is perfect for the dessert, a win win) I think the chicken version is both more interesting and more tasty

Does that pudding taste anything like chicken?

This cake is called "Hermann Kuchen" it's basically a sourdough cake and a chain letter of the different kind. If you get a piece of Hermann (or when you made your own Hermann starter) your have to let it grow for 10 day's. Stir it every day and "feed" the dough twice in between those 10 days, with flour, sugar and milk. And then you can split the dough into 4 pieces, and give it to friends or relatives, keep a piece and grow another Hermann. After this you're allowed to make everything and bake every cake which flavour you like the most with the dough basic. For example, adding cocoa powder, fruits, nuts and so on. You're even able to make a bread out of the Hermann dough. The cake has a unique flavour. But it's been a while, since i had one. I can recommend to try it out tho. It's very easy to find it, if you just search it on the internet. The receipts can vary from website to website. Here is the most accurate one i could find in English: newsrnd.com/life/2020-06-11-hermann-cake--this-is-how-you-succeed-in-creating-the-legendary-cake.SynxOh1aU.html Have fun trying it out (:

[@ismata3274]

Tastes like pudding. Depends on the milk. good milk, good taste. Texture is different. Veeeery stretchy, like some cheeses. No chicken taste. But as with anything, some very small percentage of people can taste the chicken in it, like they can taste and list any ingredient in anything, and are particularly good smellers that don't miss anything, example my mom, yes you can get a feeling that it's chicken these tiiiiny long strings you see when pulling it with your spoon.

Honduras: Rosquillas en Miel👌 They're tipically found in places like Olancho, which has some of the best food here in Honduras. Most of their food actually has corn in it, so no surprise. The rosquillas are made from masa,cheese, and some form of fat. Then they're baked til they're this crisp, salty, thick snack that we eat with our coffee the afternoon. And because they are mostly hard, we found a way to make this perfectly sweet and salty treat with what we call dulce de rapadura (pure cane sugar on a block) melted with some water and cinnamon. Actually, because they're so hard, we dunk them for a few minutes in some warm water (we use that same water for what we call la miel, what I mentioned before of the sugar and cinnamon) and then actually throw in the rosquillas, let infuse for a few minutes, and BOOM! Rosquillas en Miel :D they're to die for! Such a nice thing to eat either hot right after done, or cold after being refrigerated👌😌

Hey Beryl, I'm from Bangladesh and growing up in a country where everyone in general are fortunate enough to experience all six seasons can't forget this one steamed cake made of palmyra palm tree's ripped palm apples. The process is simple(😏😏). Peel and soak the ripped palm apples in water. Later squeeze/knead the apples so that the pulp draws out. Hang the pulp mixture with a "gamcha"(Bangladeshi towel/hanky) over a vessel. Leave it there for about 10-12 hours so that all the water you soaked it in drips out on the vessel. Later you can squeeze the pulp out by kneading the gamcha and finally, F-I-N-A-L-L-Y you can mix in rice flour, milk, eggs, sugar and other leaveners. At the end (best part) in a pan of your choice you can use a baking sheet but my ma layers the pan with banana leaves to ensure the cake doesn't stick while steaming. Unlike other steaming methods such as the bamboo steamer, we tend to directly place the cake mix on a flat vessel with little water surrounding it. On a low flame we place a lid wrapped in gamcha(yes this shit is versatile, I swear) on top of the vessel so that no steam-water drips on top of the cake. After 15-20 minutes, voilà, your steaming (😂😂) hot palm cake is ready. Hope you like it. With love, Sabby.

My family is from Jamaica. We eat ice cream pretty often but during the Christmas season, it is tradition to make fruitcake. Black Jamaican fruitcake is the best cake I ever had. You soak dried fruits and currants in rum for about 6 months. That's what gives the fruitcake it's black color. Mix in cake ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, etc. then you bake it. Then after it cools, you pour a small amount of rum over the top to give it a glaze. Then for Easter, the tradition is Easter bun. And you eat it as a snack with cheese. But it's sweet enough to eat as a dessert.

My mom's family is Swedish, and I grew up with spritz and peparkarkar at Christmas. Spritz are a melt-in-your-mouth cookie that's basically sugar, butter, flour, and nothing else. They're best made with almond extract rather than vanilla. Peparkarkar are a cut-out Swedish ginger snap. The tradition with those is that you break the cookie with your knuckle, and if it comes into 3 pieces, your wish will come true. One more that's a breakfast dish is fleskpankarkar, which translates to "meat pancake". It's kind of like German apple pancake or Yorkshire pudding, but bacon.

In China, we have Tanghulu (糖葫芦) or Candied Hawthorns. It was one of my favourite things when I was little! It's basically whole hawthorn fruits on a skewer dipped in a molten rock sugar coating

Nyelo!! For El Salvador, we have a bunch of different pan dulces but my favorite is quesadilla (pretty different from Mexican quesadilla). It’s a sweet bread made with cheeses and a metric ton of sugar (depending on your sweet level). My family likes to have it with coffee for desert or for breakfast as a quick pick-me-up. It’s so good and I highly recommend everyone to go try it if they can!

[@juanitacarrollyoung2979]

My coworker from El Salvador makes that to share. Es ... ricooooo

The only thing I can think of being Canadian is nanaimo bars. It is a chewy mixture of a chocholate and coconut on the bottom, then vanilla buttercream frosting, topped with rich chocholate ganache. Layered in a pan, chilled and cut into bars. Very sweet but so delicious!

[@zoinggo]

I’m from Canada,the best desert we have is called the Nanaimo bar . It’s from British Columbia

[@stephanieingraldi6725]

Also butter tarts!

[@Aysenur-ki7rq]

Brn Krkyğ No, I LOVE IT. I’m used to Middle Eastern flavors as some of my family r from the Middle East

[@girafacz3183]

I am from Czech Republic a there are so many deserts, but i think that most tradicional are ,, buchty" with plum filling named ,, povidla". Its so good and i think it will be good to mention in next video ;-), because in similar videos nobody never mentions Czech republic and our desert.

[@shalehajaffar2335]

As an Indian, we have lots and lots of flavourful desserts, i dono y they have carrot halwa here yeah its delicious but there's a lot more here, and in milk sweets itself we have more than 30 dishes trust me it tastes heavenly apart from the milk sweets we have halwas (we used to make halwas in everything as much as we can just for fun😂), and then we have lots of traditional sweets for every single state so carrot halwa will be like a normal one before those sweets not to hurt anyone it's just a point of view 😊

This is the first time I've heard Wales and it sounds like a very familiar Alien language

[@nyemeaker8089]

Jello really does look so unappetizing to someone who didn't grow up eating it. So jiggly in a very special way haha. Nice video Beryl

[@jazt9271]

Hello! I'm from the Dominican Republic. We have a really great dessert called Habichuela con dulce (sweet beans), it is just the best thing ever. Especially because it's only cooked on lent, and you have to wait a whole year for it, but it's worth waiting. We also have the coconut turron. It is just delicious. As well as majarete, and arroz con leche.

[@sebastiengilrobalino5362]

I'm french but I never heard about "gâteau à la broche" I know that a similar cake exist in Central Europe

[@labakalose7427]

Sebastien Gil Robalino I was surprised that they said it is made in France. I expected Poland or Lithuania at least.

[@jennyludwig7598]

In german we have a simmilar cake call "Baumkuchen" translated to tree cake. Its has waves instead of spikes at the outside. Everytime when you pure a new layer it gets brown on the outside. When you cut it, you see the concentric circles like in a tree. Therefor the name.

[@artmaster6357]

There are a lot of excellent desert in France 🇫🇷

[@franciscojvm31]

I'm from Ecuador. Here we have COLADA MORADA. It is a very traditional beverage we have for celebrating "Dia de los difuntos" in whole country. Very delicious and unique. Take a look on it.

[@TheJelleviA]

I'm from Indonesia and there are A LOT of traditional desserts. Most use coconut, and some dessert in specific region are INCREDIBLY BETTER than their non specialist counterpart. There's a chewy pop ball with bursting brown sugar inside which MELTS, an steamed cake with specific airy texture and NO WHEAT FLOUR. Gluten free people are gonna have absolute fun here. But I've been to Arab and their bulbul or bird nest dessert is INCREDIBLE, though it has to be eaten freshly

[@sinachilles9086]

I feel like i discover new deserts everyday since i live in India😂
