Digesting History: Turkish Cuisine/History

[@HikmaHistory]

Do you have any suggestions of how to make Digesting History better?

[@papazataklaattiranimam]

There is a lot of noise behind you while you are talking 🙄

[@SamAronow]

Make the food edible through the screen.

[@HikmaHistory]

@@SamAronow Let me call up by boy Elon, get him to work on a contraption like that!

[@HikmaHistory]

@@papazataklaattiranimam Yeah, I gotta go to the restaurant at a less busy time!

[@jtadros16]

[@excitableboy7031]

My condolences to the people of turkey in light of today's tragedy

[@papazataklaattiranimam]

Thx from Turkey🇹🇷

[@bernardcraine]

Opened the video just to check it out and see what you would get food-wise ; didn't think I would watch till the end, an hour and ten minutes later I watched the entire thing!!! Very interesting conversation, would definitely like to see more of these in the future. Also when you were talking about Turkish Alcohol did you mean "Raki"? P.S. if you ever visited Egypt would love to have you over for a meal.

[@HikmaHistory]

That's awesome, Bernard! It was Raki!!!

[@SamAronow]

I haven't seen this series before, but I want more, and I'm glad to see more history channels (inc. Tasting History and Linfamy) tackling history through food, art, music, etc., things that are often ignored.

[@HikmaHistory]

Thanks man!

[@historywithhilbert]

Damn this has it all, food, reference to nomads, history, Age of Empires

[@HikmaHistory]

Just trynna live out my nerdy dreams, Hilbert, is that too much to ask for!

[@سلمانقتل]

Nice video bro, Just wanted to point out that the great seljuk empire did not last 30 years, it was longer than this.. also you mentioned after Timur came ghorids, but I'm sure the ghorids came after the ghaznavids which was way before Timur.

[@HikmaHistory]

Thanks man. Regarding the Seljuks, I meant that at their peak, they lasted for 30 yrs (1062-92), not the entire dynasty. What point did I say Ghurids came after Timur - I don't remember that...

[@TareekhTrekker]

Salaam Great video Loved the conversation Watched the whole thing I would love to see more like this as well In fact I wouldn’t mind taking part in 1 of these with you - I am currently releasing a series on Al-Andalus with weekly videos - if you ever wanted to do that I would be willing - never tried halal Spanish food either - so that would be good to Great work well done

[@sfenderbabil5551]

my man that künefe looks dry Alcoholic drink you talked about is kımız(fermented horse milk) but Atatürk is a fan of rakı(arak).

[@HikmaHistory]

First time having Kunefe, to me it tasted great! Yes and yes, that's what I was trying to remember!

[@wael4070]

Now I have to call for a delivery...

[@سلمانقتل]

👍 good video

[@HebaruSan]

"corps" usually sounds like "core"

[@HikmaHistory]

Ahh that one always confuses me

[@JohnDoe10350]

Bro, I can't believe you said Parthians were Turkic. The Parthian language is in the north-west Iranian language family, along with modern languages such as Balochi, Kurdish, Gilaki, etc. Parthia was in present-day north-east Iran and Turkmenistan, and came to replace Media as the name of north-west Iran in the Sassanian period. There were no Turkic groups in any of those areas at that time. In fact, modern day Turkmenistan is a part of the proto-Iranian homeland. The Parni tribe of Parthia and the Dahae confedary which it belonged to, were related to Scythians but how does that make them Turkic? "Scythian" was basically any Iranian nomadic group. As an Afghan, you of all should know the role of Scythians in shaping the Afghan cultures and languages. Those Scythians that remained in the steppes did (mostly) get Turkified in the Islamic age, but that doesn't make ancient Scythians and their descendants in West Asia Turkic. The closest related peoples to Scythians today are the Ossetians, followed by Pashtuns, Kurds, Tajiks and Pamiris.

1 hour video :0

[@HolyArmor]

But in paintings the ottomans don't look turkish. A turk, a real turk looks like a Uzbek, or a Turkmenistan etc. So why did the ottomans call themselves turks ?

[@HikmaHistory]

Cuz those were their origins - as the Sultans started taking non-Turkish consorts, their appearance would become less Turkic.

I like the podcast

[@Squirrel_Xi]

Man ur making me hungry

[@sabeehchughtai7047]

Its a very long video stuff you are saying is good but this way of presenting it is not good..Kindly work on it and you will be very successful INSHALLAH

[@HikmaHistory]

Thanks for the feedback

[@Emperor_Atlantis]

Glad to hear noone claims Turks invented Yoghurt. My Turkish classmates (in the Netherlands) brought that up, but it is false. The Mongols invented yoghurt. That food looks tasty

[@nafismubashir2479]

the mongols did not invent yoghurt nor did the turks

[@ToroNero]

it was a common tradition of central asia so they both right and wrong

[@faisalmir1383]

How could one ever definitively know who “invented” anything, especially food items, centuries ago!? I doubt there’s glasses of ayran preserved in rock!

[@سلمانقتل]

The lands of turkey the homeland of the Hittite empire

[@bobrustigian4637]

If you want to be honest about history of the Ottoman Empire you have to address the relocation and genocide of 1.5 million Armenians.
