[@onoalerr]

El quesillo es delicioso!! Recomiendo Vigorón, Baho, Fritanga

[@DarzRojas]

Yo creo que no he probado el vigorón, pero el baho sí es rico y claro que la fritanga también!

[@sandragomez9060]

Me encanto tu vídeo y me sorprende como haces Nacatamales , ni yo puedo hacerlos🤣 has un vídeo hablando español y palabras Nica. Saludos 😘😘

[@DarzRojas]

Jaja no se si los podría hacer yo sola pero con ayuda sí 😅 si busca nicaraguan slang va a encontrar unos videos míos de palabras nicas 😊

[@lesterrosales1044]

Nice video, for me all our nica meal is good, I like your t shirt. Have a good one.

[@DarzRojas]

Thanks! Tomas loves every Nica food as well 😄

[@Cris-no1be]

Creo que un día deberías de hacer un video hablando en español, seria interesante. Saludos!😃👋

[@DarzRojas]

Eso hice la semana pasada, pero sí también debería hacer un video así sentada hablando solo español

My wife is from Managua and she’s looking for ways to get me to try “leche agria” (buttermilk) and lengua. So far, she’s been unsuccessful. I do love Gallo Pinto with a coconut oil base, arroz aguado, natatamal, sopa maggi with boiled eggs, and arroz valenciana. Fortunately for her, I was used to cooking for myself while I was single. I take over the kitchen on the weekends now to give her a break.

[@DarzRojas]

Lol. Yum that gallo pinto with coconut is so so good. Lucky wife! That's awesome.

[@DisneyMom21]

Wow! You should try the lengua though. As a Nicaraguan-American, I was always surrounded by this kind of cuisine. Lengua en salsa, with white rice, plátanos on the side is so yummy. Give it a try!

[@dianabalto]

Nagarote is the quesillo place.

[@DarzRojas]

Thanks!

[@laleydelagravedad2074]

La moronga se hace en la tripa de el cerdo también es rica

[@DarzRojas]

Ah, ok. No lo he probado

[@silviaac9289]

Deliosiosos 😋 quesillos, 👍 Nagarote

[@DarzRojas]

Gracias 😄 hablando de quesillos me dan ganas de comerlos otra vez!

[@ejnava01]

Love your t-shirt 🔵⚪🔵 Very interesting list of foods and habits... Never heard of breaking chicken bones or eating fish eyeballs 😅😂🤣 I do eat some chicken bone cartilage (yum!) and we do eat a "SUSTANCIA" made from the largest bones of the cow "sopa de médula" (yummy and insanely nutritious), similar to Ossobuco ❤ Yes, quesillo is melted cheese curd which is how fresh mozzarella is made ❤. I often explain nacatamal as "stuffed polenta" ❤. Moronga is consumed here in the US as "blood sausage" and in the UK as "black pudding" although ours is more like "morcilla" in Spain ❤. *LOVE* me some 'sopa de mondongo' and 'titiles' are the b0mb 😍❤😍 Saludos! PS: Ya me dió hambre 🤠🤙🏻

[@DarzRojas]

Thanks! Interesting, I've never heard of ossobuco or polenta. Lol I'm over here craving quesillos too 😄

[@BucketListTravellers]

We just tried huevo del Toro (bulls balls) over here... That's something I haven't seen on a menu before!

[@DarzRojas]

Oh they do that in Nicaragua? We just tried those in Texas, USA! Fried...

[@BucketListTravellers]

@@DarzRojas Not sure how common it is, but we saw it on the menu in the Nicaraguan food section. We had it served a la plancha. Not too bad!

[@erickflores9154]

I'm terrified of the texture lol

[@lesterrosales1044]

You were right the quesillos store are one in nagarote and one in la Paz centro, by the way quesillos are really good 👍. I enjoyed watching this video. Well done.greeting from canada 🇨🇦.

[@DarzRojas]

Thanks!

[@katz4me960]

In South Louisiana, we eat hog head cheese which ranges from mild to spicy. The blood and rice sausage is called "boudin" in Cajun Country and we also have meat boudin without the blood. It is definitely waste not, want not in Louisiana. You and Tomas should try alligator and crawfish. C'est bon!

[@DarzRojas]

Tomas loves crawfish! Have yet to try the alligator yet though. :)

[@andreahaverinen7319]

We liked the nacatamal when you made them at our house. I would change the proportions to more meat and veggies and less cornmeal and they would be even yummier!

[@DarzRojas]

Me too. More potatoes and rice too 😄

[@marlontoribio1795]

I love your videos with your daughter. So cute

[@DarzRojas]

Thanks 😄 she doesn't like to sit still for the camera so much anymore haha

[@marlontoribio1795]

It’s ok. That means she’s healthy and full of energy. I got 2 kids . I know, believe me

[@rigobertobeteta9981]

Te olvidaste de ponerle la hoja de platano 😇😇😇

[@DarzRojas]

Jajaja

[@AnaRodriguez-gb6hu]

Mejor en español Darlene 😅😅 Mmmm y de postre los ricos buñuelos 🤤🤤

[@DarzRojas]

Jaja si falta hablar de los postres de Nicaragua 😄

[@bernardsebranek1963]

Once at a restaurant at the Mirador de Catarina we ordered the family platter. Everything was delicious, including what I thought was some weird Nicaraguan sushi. It was Moronga. It was okay, but after finding out what it was I couldn't take another bite. I tried turtle eggs once in San Jorge. I did it solely for the experience. Didn't like and that ended my tasting of food just for the experience. BTW, I am an American living in Nicaragua. Moved here in 2014, at the age of 50. My mother was born and raised here so I had automatic citizenship. I love Nicaragua and I don't think I will ever leave.

[@DarzRojas]

Oooohhh haha I've never seen Moronga served on an "everything" plate like family platters, in Nicaragua. Oh goodness I'm not very good at trying new foods because my mouth is very sensitive to strange textures. That's so awesome! Do you live within a city or more in a quiet area?

[@erickflores9154]

Is called blood sausage is moronga same thing Darlene

[@marvinbalmaceda]

Muchas de esas son comidas que se consumen en casi toda latinoamerica e incluso en Europa. Según se, la moronga se conoce como morcilla en otros países, y el estómago de res también se consume en montón de países. Talvez la forma de prepararlos es lo que cambia.

[@DarzRojas]

Si, me imagino que si.

[@bananapatch9118]

Yep, seen all that and it makes me sooooo happy I am Vegan. 😉

[@DarzRojas]

Lol

[@bananapatch9118]

Are you still in Nicaragua ? We are retiring to Matagalpa in March !

[@DarzRojas]

No we're not there now, we go back and forth.

[@edisalablanca1486]

Saludos.

Saludos!

[@muraco32]

Me encantan todas las comidas que mecionastes, hagan un video como se conocieron, y como llegastes a Nicaragua. Yo soy de Nicaragua pero vivo and Carolina del norte usa, pero nos vamos a vivir a Nicaragua en San Juan del sur, si Diois quiere a final de ano.

[@DarzRojas]

Que bien! We did a video on how we met, kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6vEd3xrf71kldU I think in that video I also talk about I ended up in Nicaragua for the first time.

[@alrod7ify]

We ate bone marrow not because we like it. its because of hunger.thats why i did it back in thr 80s and yeah fish eye

[@DarzRojas]

Understandable.

[@scoobydoo7535]

Gotta make nacatamales with plantain leaves thats part of the flavor profile. Use also pork fat not butter. Its all part of the flavor profile, and thats just the beginning. It be like using yellow cheese on pizza. You got the wrapping part down nicely hehe. Saludos!

[@DarzRojas]

Righttt we had to make do with what we could find. Haha thanks!

[@armandomena4062]

Moronga is eaten in the usa and is called blood pudin!!!

[@DarzRojas]

I thought maybe it was the same thing but I've never had it so wasn't sure!

[@carlosarias9171]

quesillo not sure if other countries in the central american region do this, the bean soup, we say estoy tomando sopa, bebiendo may refer to the soup (water), nacatamales are fattening, Moronga, i think we may have gotten it from the British or Irish, they have something similar , look up rice pudding with pig blood. Personally never had mondongo. I hate titiles. cool video, thanks for the info.

[@DarzRojas]

haha thanks. Right, I've heard bebiendo and tomando sopa

[@k-woff8116]

I am from nicaragua and I have never seen sopa de frijoles com fideo or noodles.

[@DarzRojas]

Oh really maybe that's just household to household

[@cardan3227]

Hola Darz. A mi también me gusta comer el ojo del pescado frito :-) también me gusta comer moronga, masticar el hueso de pollo... Es por costumbre si, mis padres me enseñaron a comer de todo, pero hay gente de Nicaragua que no les gusta la moronga, ni el ojo de pescado. Me encantan tus videos. Te invito a visitar la pagina web visitanicaragua.com ahi encontraras informacion de lugares turísticos y paquetes turísticos a muy buenos precios, para cuando regreses nuevamente a Nicaragua. ;-)

[@DarzRojas]

Jaja sí así es, si te enseñan comer así vas a comer así. Bueno voy a ver! Gracias 😄
