International Breakfast Taste Test (Day 1)

[@sebastiancawsey5024]

I'm an Aussie and I was pretty sure we were going to lose to South Korea, much more history and cultural foods that have developed over centuries, back when it was just Korea. Sure, we have our breakfasts but they are pretty widespread as some are adopted from around the world but none particularly stand out as a culinary icon when you think of Australia. Appreciated your representation of our breakfast, being in this tournament and your use of Vegemite. *Edit*:spelled Vegemite wrong first go, whoops.

@DHRMP You don't cook banchans every day, usually your matriarch will make a big batch on a Sunday or something to last 1-2 weeks. A really typical Korean family has a bunch of tuppaware for each banchan and you can put a bit of each out, or if you're feeling lazy just set the tuppaware out and return it to the fridge after.

Can you rate the Ecuadorian Breakfast in one of your videos (or in this series)? We typically eat Patacones (fried green plantains - NOT bananas) and also Bolones De Verde (which also include plantains). I think the Ecuadorian breakfast is really good, and would make for a great short or long video.

[@tendies9248]

That sounds nice

[@berthanlaban]

Heyyy a Korean passing by :p and I approve that Kimchi brand tastes pretty legit. I buy from that brand quite often and that’s like the best tasting one. Nice cooking btw!

[@CitizenSniiiips]

Got some suggestions on Australian breaky. During the week we stick to simple things like oats and other cereals, yoghurt, fruits, vegemite on toast etc with a flat white or latte or maybe something you grab on the go like a breaky wrap. But on the weekends it's brunch's time to shine and this is something people don't fully understand about us. We go HARD at brunch and this is where our international food influence is really given the attention it deserves. You can go to literally any brunch cafe around the country and will almost always see multiple variations of eggs benedict/florentine, a big breakast, avo on toast either done simply or elegantly with trimmings like pomegranate seeds, mushrooms etc, breakfast "stacks" where we take potato rostis and load them up with avo, poached eggs, indian masalas, mushrooms, eggplant etc etc etc and of course for the sweet tooth fluffy pancakes with seasonal fruits. But you're also just as likely to see all sorts of Mexican inspired breakfast crossovers, scrambled eggs with all sorts of versions e.g. Thai with chili garlic prawns, "breakfast" nasi gorengs, Lebanese dishes with fatoush or Turkish cilbir..... the list is endless. In my opinion as someone who goes out for brunch like it's a hobby I think you have a couple of quintessential brunch meals for breakfast. The first is a break bruschetta (take that Italians) where we take your normal avo on toast, add a lovely fresh bruschetta mix toped with some poached eggs, fresh basil and balsamic glaze. The second being a rosti stack where you start with a base of potato (or sweet potato) rosti, and build from there with any number of toppings like avo, pico de gallo, poached eggs, bacon, fried mushrooms, feta. A typical combo would be avo, bacon, eggs and a fresh salsa but you can go vego and do avo, mushrooms, feta. And lastly, you can't have Australian breakfast without a flat white or latte. That's basically illegal. I really think Australia needs another go, but you really need to have a look at the cafe culture of the big cities like Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane to really get an idea of how we take inspiration from our big melting pot of culture combined with our unrivalled access to all produce from around the world. Scrambled eggs on toast with avo is what I'd make myself at home, but if I was at the cafe down the road I'd be having it with poached eggs, whipped feta, pomegranate molasses and salsa verde.....

[@vczxtiktok]

mate did you just try to say brekkie 💀

[@blakewheeler5880]

This is a pretty good explanation. I will normally have avo on toast when avocados aren’t so darn expensive. But if not Vegemite or eggs is fine (always with coffee) for a weekday breakfast. On the weekends is where you tend to have to bigger more delicious breakfast such as you were talking about.

[@banana_rat96]

the fact that you need that much effort just to beat a breakfast dish is kind of embarrassing, just sit down and take the L cause you're making this worse 💀💀

[@ashlabelle]

You've already tried fool medames and said you love beans, so I invite you to try Egyptian falafel. Unlike other countries in the middle east we make them from fava beans not chickpeas, they have a bright green color on the inside, we serve them in a pita pocket with tahini, chopped tomatoes and parsley. We also sometimes stuff them with a spicy harissa-like paste, but be careful with the amount you use of that because it can be really spicy.

[@shlokaswain2118]

im not sure but i certainly remember him trying fava beans and falafel

[@tukynii]

PLEASE PLEASE try Vietnamese breakfast. It's called Bo Ne. It's super theatrical because you serve it on a cast iron skillet SIZZLING HOT. Plus you know it's tasty

[@munuoctopus3085]

I would of liked it if you put the banchan separately. As a Korean we are very used to putting the banchan separately and if you put them on top of the rice the kimchi would become luke warm which is not great.

[@Teaberrycute]

As a true aussie. I don’t think that was fair. Versing South Korea with cultural studied foods for over generations and then whipping out an Aussie egg with avocado on toast, like seriously 😐 in my opinion I would have done Japan V South Korea since it has more cultural similarities ,to make the “competition” fair. When I go to a cafe to get my daily Brekky I like to get avo on toast, but instead of scrambled they always serve poached eggs, which in my opinion is way better, the egg yolk dripping out the side from the toast adds a gooey texture to it. If you re watch the video when the man is showing you how to make a true Aussie Brekky it’s wrong, that was 5 years ago, and we’re talking about the now. I’m sorry if that was rude but it was the plain old truth. P.S you still did amazing 👍

[@vikkkstar]

I respect the way you put this. :)

[@edwintrevillion4263]

When I saw what the aussie brekkie was up against I knew it would be close, but I’m still glad that the Aussie breakfast was enjoyed and that someone FINALLY ate vegemite correctly

Eggs and toast may be the most common breakfast worldwide. Different various but the basis is similar. Countries differ more in celebration or holiday meals.

[@anonymousraccoonchild1953]

[@justinnorrie3594]

Australian here -- the Korean breakfast looks better to me. Love Korean food in general. That said, the smashed avocado should have had a handful of crumbled feta, a splash of lime, and some chili flakes at the minimum. Also needed way more butter and a touch less vegemite on the other piece of toast.

[@BuildYourOwnRC]

The one thing to remember with Vegemite is to treat it like 2 stroke oil! Get the ratio to butter at about 1 part vege to 25 parts butter and your good! Also cheesy scrambled eggs on Vegemite crumpets is best!!!

Australia: Bowl of weet-bix with milk, topped with banana, strawberry, and blueberries. Damper toast with vegemite, avo, lemon juice, coriander, feta, salt and pepper, topped with poached eggs. Mug of warm milo made with extra milo. We probably still wouldn’t win against Korea as that breakfast looked amazing, but it would be about as authentic as an Australian breakfast can get.

[@KingPinguofDingu]

The Korean one is missing a soup. A soup or stew is ESSENTIAL to a Korean meal and families will usually make a big pot of soup that will last them for a handful of meals, that way when you wake up in the morning, all you have to do is just reheat the soup instead of making it from scratch first thing in the morning. This also includes most banchans. They'll make large portions that will be placed in containers and kept in the refrigerator.

[@TheWhiteGoblin]

A traditional aussie breakfast is steak and eggs or steak, kidney and eggs. Basically for a very long time, and still is in a way, it was much easier to get steak than bacon, so a lot of the traditional British dishes were changed to from bacon to steak. Also pretty much all of our sausages are beef rather than the more common British pork.
