RV Life Americans Try Lithuanian Food For the First Time

[@nilspetterhellvik5519]

As a Norwegian im happy when people discover Lithuanian food. Its really tasty

[@NaturalStateRebels]

What is a popular Norwegian dish we could try?

[@Ddccpp2152]

Loved this interaction with them, it's the southern hospitality they will never forget! ❤

[@NaturalStateRebels]

They are such good people. We had a good time working (and eating) with them.

[@Vytaszx]

This popped into my feed and was really fun to watch! Thanks and good luck!

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video.

[@edgarasz.433]

I'm lithuanian and those lithuanian phrases they picked for you are classic ones :). And forget the pink soup and kugelis, try fried dark rye bread sticks with cheese dip (garlicy). Ask them how to make it (or google it), I bet u will love it :)

[@NaturalStateRebels]

That sounds SO good. We love garlic! Thanks for the recommendation.

[@Suverenas]

That was really fun to watch.

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Glad you enjoyed it. 😁

[@Suverenas]

Funny fact, Migle’s last name is Skystimaite, but her dads last name is Skystimas, which translates to a ‘liquid’. Also, there’s a saying about that - ‘skystimas’ is a man that laughs a lot, can’t stop laughing.

[@NaturalStateRebels]

That's interesting....and funny

[@GeographicallyFree]

This was fun! I felt like I was there. Markas and Migle are so adorable. ❤️ #donthangpastaonmyears

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Yes, it was lots of fun learning their phrases and sayings. They're good 'kids'.

[@rokasmalakauskas]

Dudes, the hot potatoes are an important feature of this pink soup

[@eglunasklimavicius9771]

Guys, you should come to Lithuania! Love it. You Awesome !

[@NaturalStateRebels]

We'd love to visit Lithuania someday.

[@ElePranaityte]

11:15 Lithuanian watching ❤ Beet and beetroot is the same thing. For kugelis, you used a wrong grate- need smaller holes.

[@MrZRager]

earned new lithuanian subscriber :D nice to see you trying different foods, you guys did really well with the dishes.

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Thank you for subscribing and thank you so much for the compliment 😊.

[@KazCloud]

Honestly, this was awesome to watch! It's rare to see our culture presented like this.

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Thank you. 🙂

[@GodSonLT]

hi, it was amazing show, had a blast watching it :) I am Lithuanian, at one point you asked for very strange dish of our kitchen and they mentioned Vėdarai, but there is way worse one "Kraujiniai vėdarai" (it requires fresh blood of an animal) used to eat it as a child in village. that one is definitely hardest to try but actually many countries have them as blood sosage (similar dish) also if you like cold smoked meed, try "Skilandis" (can easily youtube it how it is made it does require a lot of time though as it has to dry for 2-3months). Also one amazing dish is "žemaičių blynai" definitely the one I love the most with mushroome souse. And very good and popular one is "Balandėliai" (means pidgeons, but has nothing related to that animal), not interialy Lithuanian but very popular in here brought by merchanaries in 1300-1400 AC from Ukraine (Caraim) is "Kibinai" amazing thing, Also "Cepelinai" good luck to your channel!

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Glad you enjoyed the video. It's one of our favorite videos to make. Those are some great suggestions although the animal blood dish sounds like it would be super hard to try. 🤢😄

[@Lunar-f9q]

@@NaturalStateRebels you really should try the "Kraujiniai vėdarai" its really good i used to eat it a LOT especially with sour cream. You cant even taste the blood 😊

[@lukazsport]

Also some people's put in soup milk to make more fluid

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Good to know. Thanks

[@alvydasstanislovaitis8908]

That was so funny😉🍻

[@NaturalStateRebels]

😁 Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@Pilosopas]

This was fun. Especially loose translations of Lithuanian sayings 🙂

[@NaturalStateRebels]

We struggled with the translations. Lol

[@tomiskundelis2321]

Pickled beets doesn´t stain as much as raw ones. And it isnt that big deal anyway.

[@diannbrown440]

It said pickled beet root but beets are a root vegetable, so I think they mean pickled beets!

[@Suverenas]

Although leaves are also edible, you are right.

[@aurimasas.9844]

The food looks very tasty 🤩🇺🇸❤️🇱🇹

[@NaturalStateRebels]

It was very tasty. Surprisingly good.

[@ZZZAAA2003]

the girl had a lovely surname - Skystimaite can be translated as a Little Liquid. Skystimas -> Liquid :P

[@NaturalStateRebels]

She probably got tired of me saying her last name all summer. I wish I would've known it can be translated as little liquid. 😄👍

[@WuTangChopstick]

Although there's no little (masculine version of the word "mažas or mažytis" and feminine "maža or mažytė" in the word. It can sound diminutive form because it's maiden name cause she's not yet married. Married women inherit their husband's surname, but they can keep current one that would change from Skystimaitė (not married version) to Skystimienė (married version).

[@johngudonis2015]

Kugelis is awesome. It’s like a potato pancake pie.

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Yes, it's very tasty.

[@tomiskundelis2321]

There are beet leaves and beet roots. There are no some other part called "Beets". Or there are? :)

[@edvinasm7902]

It is just my opinion, but cold beetroot soup with baked or boiled beetroot is much better tasting than the one with pickled beetroot. I think that pickled beetroot trend was started by all kinds of bistros and restaurants who wanted cheap and quick way to get beetroot for their soup.

[@ORCChannel]

It's very important what kefir and beets you using

[@truethera]

Awesome, just what you made is called "students kugelis" because for proper kugel you have to mash the potatoes (yeah like fully mash non cooked potatoes). Just a short notice :D

[@NaturalStateRebels]

We'd love to try it that way. Thanks for the tip. 😁

[@k.squared]

@@NaturalStateRebels In fact, a more precise way of putting it would be to grate, not mash the potatoes. Most households in Lithuania have an electric grater and although you can use these devices to grate anything, all of them are simply called "potato graters" ;) There are more essential potato dishes that depend on them.

[@editatide1]

When baking, grate the potatoes on a fine grater. Then fry the finely chopped bacon with onions in a pan and add to the grated potatoes, add milk, salt and mix. Bake in the oven. What you have cooked is not a traditional Lithuanian dish. When you're making the cold borscht, add more cucumber and onion leaves, dill. Add sour cream. Serve separately with boiled and fried potatoes. It is important that the vegetables are fresh

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Unfortunately we couldn't make it with bacon because one of them was a vegetarian and wouldn't eat bacon. Thanks for the tip though.

[@editatide1]

@@NaturalStateRebels OK, than you can add some oil. Thank you for video

[@martynasrazmas9284]

showing the horns not the goats xD

[@straberry-starni]

i am from lithuanian

[@VideoBite]

Lithuanians approved 😗👌

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Thank you for watching and commenting. :)

[@Litu7-c3c]

Ay porfavor no puedo ver cómo hace el kugeli y saltibarkcius que estropello de receta y cultura lituana. Quiero llorar que soy de Lituania .😢😢😢😢

[@dainiusm5436]

Lithuania 👍👍👍

[@shlexy]

very cool 🇱🇹 🇺🇸

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Thank you 😊.

[@Vil9876]

Potatoes should be bitten, not dipped in soup. The potato must be hot. Potato stew looks like a kugel, but... Although it's probably delicious too.

[@eglunasklimavicius9771]

❤Aciu

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Thank you for watching and commenting 🙂.

[@aurered6387]

Spit and catch would mean actually when someone asks what to do when they bored or just annoying so we say spit and catch in Lithuanian would sound as Spjaudik ir gaudik it's a bit rude saying xD

[@NaturalStateRebels]

Good to know. Thanks 😊

[@maryter3901]

It's not Kugelis, it is Plokštainis.

[@Suverenas]

There are many names. English translation - ‘Potato pie’, while ‘Kugel’ is German name. I agree with ‘Plokštainis’, although, since they shredded potatoes, didn’t add bacon, they created something new, and it’s up to them to name it 😁.

[@Vil9876]

Kugelis ir taip aišku, o apie plokštainį reikia pasakyti koks. Tarkuotų bulvių plokštainis.

[@robertasblaudziunas8058]

Weirdest Kugelis ive ever seen

[@deimantasgaizauskas3865]

no idea what's going on here, I was born and raised in Lithuania for past 40 years never seen and never heard about such a dish and I'm professional cook for past 20 years

[@MrIrvash]

Slatibarsciai? Ar zemaitijoj nesi buves ?
