Bro I cried I'm only 14 but my grandma has dementia and hasn't cooked in 3 years

[@soniawitczak6603]

I'm a first generation Polish American and I teared up when MatPat said he was Polish... I was raised strictly Polish and eat all sorts of Polish food to this day, (today it was kotlety mielone). Yes I know we keep too many consonants together, and the smells of Polish dishes can be pungent, but you should try Kaszanka! It's truly delicious!

[@forwadnothing8212]

If it's pungent, it just means it's been fermenting in flavor. Especially when cabbage is involved (Im talking about veggies not other things, and even then only in some cases).

[@LePetitNuageGris]

@@forwadnothing8212Hell yes. When he was talking about those soups stewing away all day, my mouth was watering… and now I really want some cabbage soup.

[@jakubdrabent8158]

It's weird to think, but I live in Poland(although I have Hungarian and Rus(not Russian, a part of the Europe that was taken by ZSRR like Ukraine) roots, and I must say that we don't feel those smells, they are so ingrained into our cooking here, that it's just smell of the kitchen. Also it's very funny to hear American Polish people try to pronounce Polish name without knowledge of reading polish

[@crawfy48]

I agree, we don't feel those smells - another Polish dish is gołąbki, basically meat with rice (I think historically it was meat with groats) served inside cabbage leaves 💚 We also eat pickled cabbage (kiszona kapusta)

[@jakubdrabent8158]

@@crawfy48 dude, gołąbki or pierogi with cabbage and mushrooms. Basically the smell of my mother's and grandmother's kitchens, it makes me hungry by the thought

Great gram's rhubarb pie: 4 cups finely chopped rhubarb 2 cups sugar 1/4 cup all purpose flour 1 generous squeeze lemon juice Pinch of salt 1 heaping tbsp tapioca pearls Before placing top crust, spread small dabs of butter onto the filling. The crust will absorb it as it bakes and makes it super flakey, and gets rid of the weird store bought crust after taste.

[@evereimer6746]

I screen shoted this so I could try it

[@YoshMaster]

Ohhhhh the tapioca pearls is such an interesting idea!! 😮 i looove tapioca (and rhubarb) so I’m definitely trying this!! Thanks for sharing!

[@silent_statement757]

OMG I love rhubarb pie so much!!!! we make it every year!

[@dogleggedhades0]

Yes! My grandma grows Rhubarb in her backyard and I go over to get some every summer to make into pie.

[@joystickgenie]

This is so much like the pie my mom and I made while I was growing up. Only difference is we used 3 eggs as the pie thickener instead of the tapioca. Rhubarb Pie like this and taking an extra stalk of rhubarb eating it sprinkled with sugar makes me thing of summer vacation.

[@Nakano_Osako]

When I was younger my uncle taught me how to make amazing shortbread cookies from a recipe that was passed down for generations. I’m finally glad I have an excuse to share it! Short Bread cookies: 6 oz flour 3 oz cornstarch 3 oz sugar 1 stick of butter (softened) 1 egg yolk Steps: Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Combine flour, egg, cornstarch, and sugar in a mix bowl. Mix well. Slowly add in pieces of butter and continue to mix until a solid dough ball is formed. You may need to add a few teaspoons of water if the dough is not forming. Place individually cut cookies on a baking sheet and put them in the oven for about 15 minutes. Check them occasionally. Depending on the cookie size, you may need more or less time. Once the bottom of the cookies are golden brown take them out of the over and let them cool. Once the cookies have cooled a bit, but are still warm, dip or sprinkle each cookie with sugar. Leave them to cool fully and then enjoy! ❤

[@theepicricemaker6611]

Food anywhere is huge. Acting like food being important to one's culture is special. Why

[@kubabojarski8950]

I never thought a Food Theory episode would actually show that Mat and i, along with many other people have a lot in common. Both raised Polish, a lot of interests similar to eachother, and have similar stories when it comes to ancestors. At the age of 4-5, my grandmother is someone i looked up to the most. She always had those iconic rainbow melon gummies lying around somewhere, and the best thing i remember her making was toast with that unforgetable pepper spice sprinkled around it. I still remember that party with my whole known generation invited by her, with those triangular decorations, tables, lights, music and fireplace set up, along with a basic mobile game needing to guess the names of certain games on it just for some fun of my own. Now with my grandma passing away since almost 9 years ago, that toast still lives on within my family, and my dad knows the exact recipe for it. God speed Matthew. May your cooking adventures live on

[@ocean4171]

As someone from a Chinese family, living in South East Asia, one of my family recipes is a soup made from papaya, tofu, pork and that salted fish Stephanie was talking about. It is cooked occasionally and never gets old or loses it's taste no matter how many times you eat it. Congratulations on Matpat for being able to embrace his family's roots and recipes in order to continue his legacy as one of his final theories.

[@johnhmaloney]

This was a really heartwarming episode. I'm so glad that everyone enjoyed their dishes. Especially Matt, after decades of avoiding it.

[@abigailjoy8148]

My church is largely comprised of senior citizens. It’s a small church, so sometimes people are basically like family. Over the last 20 years (I’m 21), we’ve lost a lot of those elderly members. But what we *haven’t* lost is their recipes, because every few years, we make a church cookbook. One of the ladies we consider one of the most iconic chefs in the church passed away in 2015, but her husband (who’s in his 90s) allowed us to put some of her recipes in a cookbook we just put out within the last year or two. Since the last cookbook when I was just a kid, I’ve taken up baking, and I have some of my own iconic recipes that are now in that cookbook. You don’t always realize how special something is until something like this video brings it to your attention. Thanks, Food Theorist team. ❤️

Finding out this man has Slavic origins somehow made me emotional and somehow the way he is makes so much sense now.

This may be my favorite episode you’ve done here on food theory. I really don’t have much in terms of memories of family or our history, but I do have a cookbook from my grandmother that makes me laugh. She was an amazing cook and baker in her time (though she wasn’t the best at cookies), and she left all the grandkids a cookbook. The problem was that she was a dump cook, so while all the ingredients are correct, none of them have the correct measurements. My sister spent years figuring it out, but I kinda treasure the book more with the wrong measurements. She had dementia during my time, so I never had any of her cooking, but I have the memories of her, and the cookbook reminds me of those days.

Here's an easy recipe from my aunt's days in college Ultimate Grilled Cheese: 3 oz cream cheese 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder 3/4 cup of mayonnaise (it has to be mayo) 1 cup of shredded mozzarella 1/8 teaspoon seasoned salt A good type of bread. She recommended Italian bread or garlic Parmesan bread, but I found it taste just as good with regular sliced bread In a mixing bowl beat the cream cheese and mayo together until smooth, then stir in the cheeses and seasonings. After that you would spread it on some bread and cook it like a regular cheese sandwich.

Butterscotch Oat Squares 2 cups quick rolled oats 1 tsp baking powder 1/8 tsp salt 1 cup brown sugar (packed) 1/2 cup butter, melted 1/2 tsp vanilla Combine oats, baking powder and salt. Add sugar and mix. Add melted butter and vanilla, blending thoroughly. Spread mixture thinly into a 9 x 13 pan (ungreased) and press down with a spoon or spatula. Bake at 300 degrees Fahrenheit until golden (about 20 minutes). Allow to stand 5 minutes, then cut into squares or bars. Allow to cool thoroughly before removing from pan.

This episode hits emotionally. We lost my grandmother this time last year and one of the things I miss most is her cooking. Granted I don’t think she had any family recipes passed down from generations, but her cooking was always good. I don’t know how to describe it, but it was more than just food. Kinda the same for a great aunt that passed a few years ago. If you wanted to sell the Patrick Family Cookbook, I’d buy a few.

As per traditional Slovakian spin on the cabbage soup, try adding dried mushrooms, pieces of pork shoulder and plums! (It is called kapustnica, and we eat it during Christmas) Also, try forgoing the tomato sauce, sugar and chicken broth, and instead simmer it purely in hot water. It takes longer, but it is so worth it. Also don't be shy with those bay leaves and paprika, add more. And I heartily recommend adding a splash of heavy cream (sweet or sour) into any cabbage soup plate, makes it like a little piece of heaven (also it serves great to cool the soup down a little bit). Also, EAT IT WITH A PIECE OF BREAD ON THE SIDE! (the truly central Europe way)

i honestly love how this episode served as a love letter from MatPat to his grandpa. ;w; i don't know if my granny had any family recipes, but i did write a poem about her kindness after her passing. i showed the poem to my mum, and she shared it with her family, who then shared it with their extended family members, including family i didn't even know about. my poem spread throughout my entire family and united us, and now a copy of it hangs in our hallway courtesy of my aunt who shared the poem the most. what i'm saying is don't take people for granted. you'll never know when something will come and take them away, and all you'll be left with are the memories. there may be good memories, there may be bad memories, but they'll never compare to the real deal.

2 years ago, me and my sister made sausage entirely from scratch. My great-grandfather and his brother ran a butchery together and they passed their sausage recipes down to their children. Over the years, my great-uncle and his granddaughter have been making the sausage and tweaking the recipes. My family still has the original sausage maker that my great-grandfather brought over in 1927, and me and my sister actually used it when we made the sausage. I only ever made the breakfast sausage once so i don’t remember the recipe but I thought it would be cool to share the story.

Simple yellow rice with chicken. You take four big chicken legs, seal them on fire with onion, crushed garlick and parsley, add wine to deglaze and let the chicken be made slowly with 8 cups of water, boiling. After a few mins, add 3 parts rice, add curcums or food dye and salt. And... that's my fave food. You can add olives, too, or even pepper. Some sour helps a lot with the flavor

[@waywarddave]

For special occasions my family always started the day with Finnish pancakes (which are just scandinavian pancakes, but with lingonberries). They’re more like crepe pancakes than flapjacks, so they’re thinner and more savory. This recipe feeds 2-3 people, but you can double or even triple it up to feed more. 2 eggs 1 tbsp sugar Beat together 1 cup of milk 1 cup of flour 1 tsp salt 3/4 cup butter (melted) 1/32 tsp love Mix into a thick batter Heat up a large pan over a medium heat, and once the pan is hot you can add butter OR bacon grease. Don’t use a non-stick pan though, you want it to have a little bite. When you add the batter, swirl the pan around to form it into a circle and let it cook for around two minutes, then flip and let it cook for another minute. Remove and begin the process again. What I’ll usually do (as my mom taught me) is alternate butter and bacon grease for each pancake. Surprisingly, it does not make a huge taste difference. Once all the batter is cooked, roll the pancakes up and serve 2-3 per person. While you can any pancake toppings your heart desires, some Lingonberry jam is what makes them Finnish pancakes. Both of my grandmothers were immigrants (Finnish and Estonian respectively), and while I never got to meet them I do have a number of recipes from both of them. One day I hope to have kids to pass them down to

[@maxwinters6458]

This episode really spoke to me. My grandpa passed away just a few years ago. He loved outdoor/cowboy-style cooking, and he became somewhat famous in my Boy Scout troop for it. When he died, my grandma gave me all his old cookbooks. Very few of the recipes in any of these books were his own, but in a binder he had compiled, I had finally found his elusive Ranch Beans recipe. This was a recipe that he would put together for almost every family gathering. They’re delicious, they’re spicy, and they’re very filling. When I decided to make the recipe for myself, I tried them and immediately thought back to my grandpa and how much he loved his cooking ❤️

im traveling around finland and meeting my family for this very reason right now. I just learned lohikeito (salmon soup) and it is so delightful and easy: ingredients (no measurements just add to whatever ratio you want) * onion * carrot * potato * peppercorn * salmon * heavy whipping cream * salt * dill All you need to do is saute the veggies to make the soup base then add in some water, diced potatoes, and peppercorn. From there you let it simmer until the potatoes are cooked through and then add in salt and the salmon. Let it simmer for another 5 minutes and add in the heavy whipping cream and salt and youre done! And then serve with a sprinkle of dill on top. Its super easy to make and all the ingredients are really cheap which is great for todays grocery prices. Hope you enjoy :))

[@sketch3799]

When you talked about how you guys took the time to experiment with your families recipes, that really highlights what a family recipe is supposed to be. Of course, it will always be nice to have the original, the first version of that recipe with you. But then that's just someone's recipe. Not a family recipe. It becomes a family recipe because you can change it, you can add or subtract aspects of the dish to your liking, and then pass it on to your kids. Then, they can do the same. So while its base started as the original recipe that your grandparents made, it now encorporates you, and every generation after you. It captures every single generation of your family, and it's something to cherish.

I could never like jared pasta sauce because I found it flavorless. That Chili sauce just makes all of them better (you can taste test if youd like more or less, depending how much you make you dont need a full bottle). Otherwise kind of homemade was: full bottle of Heinz Chili Sauce; x1-22oz can of Hunts tomato sauce; 1 large can of Diced Tomatoes; Parcley-Oragano-Basil-Garlic (lol maybe about 2 tbsp each, I just shake until i feel it looks like enough).

2:07 is a funny moment. Matt says it right, but the text on screen is spelled wrong. It's supposed to be Pączki not Paczki, which is a completely different word. Now this is not the editors fault per se. Not only is it possible that "ą" doesn't even exist in that font, but getting the "ą" on non Polish keyboard seems to be close to impossible.

In my family a commonly made family recipe is North Staffordshire Oatcakes (I think we’ve altered the recipe slightly but I still love the dish all the same) They’re found in towns such as Stoke on Trent(where my family is from) As a child I love it when my father makes this dish.

MATPAT 😭 you really posted this the day I was taught my wife’s mawmaw’s homemade bread recipe. I never got to meet her as she passed away very shortly before I met my now wife. My wife’s uncle made some of the bread last Thanksgiving and I liked it so much I asked him to teach me. Yesterday was my first time making it and my mother-in-law said it tasted just like her mama’s bread. I was so proud and happy. This episode tugged my heart

This is a wholesome video. Im glad to see people get to experience family traditions through food. For me, my family has been there my whole life, and I would be willing to pass down traditions to later generations, food or otherwise.

Weird how this is the most normal food theory episode but definitely one of if not the best episode!

This is such an awesome episode. I dont have any family recipes except maybe a specific way to make sweet tea. We just werent that kind of family. Its so cool to see you all taste these and go through these memories. Reminiscing on where you came from. Thank you for sharing a personal piece of you with us.

Ok, unrelated but that jul20d at 6:19 is definitely either an ARG or I'm missing a reference

[@blazefiregod6419]

Thanks

[@filipoda123]

[@MrCisKo]

@@blazefiregod6419 no probs :D

[@MrCisKo]

I was right yeeeeee (it was not that difficult but I didn't see anyone point it out so I was kinda afraid I was out of the loop on something xD)

Man….Now im crying. My mom always tells me how horribly her moms cooking was but there’s one special recipe from her. My grandma’s cheesecake. It’s literally the very best I’ve ever eaten and I still make it every now and then and it’s always the first I think of when I want cheesecake. Thanks for reminding me of the meaning behind these little things…

Something my grandmother told me, many many years ago when I was a child, sticks with me as I watch this video. The recipes left to us... are a guide to our past and a way to teach our future. This video reminds me of all the times spent in her kitchen helping her make different foods. This video reminds me not to forget my roots, and to not be afraid to try new things, just as she did all those years ago. Thank you for this wonderful video.

Wow! That's so cool how you are part Slovak. I'm from Slovakia and watching you for years!

[@executionflux91]

This video is a really cool concept. I don't really have family recipes(that I know of) but I am so happy you get to experience them and even pass them on. Truly in the feels this one.

This episode hit me hard. I lost my grandma recently (less than 2 years ago) and i desperately wish we had gotten her meatball recipe. I still remember the day I first tried her meatballs, they were so good i ate 6, and they were big so that was a lot for child me. I spent all the years after that constantly asking for the meatballs for dinner whenever i could when i spent the night at her house. I really wish my family was able to make those meatballs again, so i could taste them and remember the joy of all those good times.

My grandma would always have dessert waiting for us when we go to visit. I was always excited to see what dessert she had made. My favorite is Banana Pound Cake with homemade cream cheese icing. I’ve learned the recipe and make it from time to time. Another family recipe I love(and is a family favorite on my maternal grandmother’s side) is Spaghetti and cheese and it is way better than Mac and cheese. It also simple to make. You just need spaghetti, butter, milk, cheese, and salt and pepper. The recipe has been in my grandma’s side of the family for generations.

Isn't spegetti with cheese just spegetti Carbonara with no bacon?
