Sanctions 2022. How I'm going to survive. Easy buckwheat recipe

[@StPetersburgme]

Hello, my dear friends! As I promised, here is a buckwheat recipe, easy, tasty and healthy. Enjoy!

[@rachelstrahan2486]

👍

[@1992DJP]

So glad that KZbin is still working for you

[@rachelstrahan2486]

There's a Russian guy named Dan Sheekoz I subscribe to and he posted a video 4 days ago that has over 4 million views already 😲 and the title is something like: gas prices in Russia after sanctions. So you'll probably get a lot of views if you can upload some videos. I hope you will be safe and things won't last for long but we never know. We all have to: plan for the worst and hope for the best. 🙂 Take care 💙

[@1992DJP]

Thank you I just subscribed to his videos also. I pray that they both will continue be able to use KZbin. I’m sharing both their channels on my Facebook page to hopefully get more following. It’s one way that we all can help get a little bit of money to them.

[@susannesamuelsson2930]

Oh sweet Ksenia everything is so sad 😞 and I feel so sorry for the ordinary people who are all caught up and suffer in this situation 💔 😢 that none of us want! It's absolutely horrendous and awful! Your buckwheat recipe looks really good and it reminds me of a dish made with green lentils that they cook in Italy! Oh your sweet cat wanted to taste chicken too! I have a cat too and he also loves chicken ( boiled chicken ). I hope that this situation soon will be over and I wish you and your family the best! With warm hugs ❤🥰🤗and a lot of love, Susanne 👩‍🦳 and Trollet 🐱🐾❤!

[@dbozexpat894]

Since l first started watching your videos this week, I've been researching Russian recipes. Who would have ever thought? Good job! 👏👍💯

[@barbaraweishaar1892]

God bless you and your family.No blame to Russian people and Ukraine people.So sorry for you all have to suffer.Seems like all people of the world have to suffer because of governments. Thank you for recipe.Stay safe🥰

[@gardenvarietyvegan4096]

I love buckwheat. Someday I will have to try your recipe 🙂 I’m looking forward to more videos!

[@cynthiaescamilla2649]

It’s so good to see you! I’m a vegan and don’t eat meat, and I’m always looking for new recipes. I’ve never tried buckwheat and now I’m on my way to the store to get some. Thank you.

[@veganapple]

I'm vegan I eat buckwheat it's not grain it's amazing and healthy. I hate rice and other grains expept quinoa. You gonna love it ❤️

[@5thdimension625]

You have to have a buckwheat pancake! Nothing more flavorful than making yourself some of those

[@ammabee3693]

Mushrooms substitute can work😎

[@lochamb1234]

I'm vegetarian and never tried buckwheat properly (m&s do a salad with buckwheat). I'm going to have a go at making a veggie option. Love your videos and sending love to the Russian people.

[@scarletred8888]

It’s delicious - beautiful nutty flavour

[@mvp019]

I'm glad you are posting your videos - you seemed kind of down after the last one. Hang in there Ksenia - there are many of us in your corner!

[@elanawilkins9292]

Will watch later but I'm SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU!!!! 😭 Tears of joy. Please keep going!!! My husband and I are going back to your beginning and watching all the early videos. I'm Ukrainian and my mom grew up on buckwheat in pancakes and other foods my baba used to make. I will make your recipes!

[@StPetersburgme]

Thank you for your comment! I hope this all soon will finish for Ukrainians first of all.

[@elanawilkins9292]

Yes for Ukrainians!!! but Russians as well. I have many many friends in Russia. They are heartsick over everything. They don't want any of this. Be strong!!!

[@elanawilkins9292]

Wondering if you have any idea what some of the spices were in your mom's mix that you used in this recipe?

[@teresahild]

I agree with you Elana! I am very joyous that Ksenia is greatly affected but okay in her mother’s house.

[@thecomicovenonig74]

Sellout. Go be ashamed of yourself supporting this channel

[@heatherward3430]

I made this last night! I added garlic and used salt, pepper, smoked paprika and bag leaves. It was DELICIOUS!

[@Tabdawg]

Skenia I was so glad to see your post.You were in such distress last week and I was worried about you.. I cooked buckwheat with meat and vegetables on Sunday and thought of you and your family. It was delicious. My son visited me for dinner and enjoyed it as well. I hope your mother's health is improving. I pray for peace and protection everywhere.

[@treatstreats7149]

Sending love :)

[@teresasmith728]

Thanks for posting this video. Thinking about you in these stressful times. You are in my prayers for peace for The Russian, Ukrainian people and the world. God bless you. Love from America.

I watch many videos of Russian cooking. I can honestly say I would eat everything and wash all the dishes! Peace and love to you and all the people of the world

[@verenamartini8695]

Thank you Ksenia ! A packet of buckwheat has been waiting in my pantry for a few months, now I will give it a try, and no meat for me, vegan since 6 years !

[@KindaSassy1]

Ksenia! Oh my gawd, I about squealed so loud when I saw the title of your video.... you made the buckwheat recipe!!! Thank you so much. Im going to ask my daughter to make it tomorrow (tonight we eat Japanese). I hope the Russian people dont hate us Westerners for what they are having to endure. Freedom for all and looking forward to your next video.

[@bandit2048]

Enjoyed watching you and the recipe - I've been vegetarian for 35 years but I eat a lot of buckwheat and this easily adapts to use with vegetables rather than meat. Life's getting harder for all of us - hang in there.

[@melissalee333]

That looks delicious. Love one pot meals. Thank you for sharing. Praying for your Mom’s recovery.

[@helencraw]

Dear Friend, so pleased to see your posting. Hope you and your family thrive during these trying times.

[@victoriastone6287]

Glad to hear from you and see that you are okay. I will definitely try that recipe! I am also wishing your mother a speedy recovery!

[@cameronday8290]

So glad to see you are doing well. I pray for peace. Thanks for sharing with us. Also, I have a cat named George. I love hearing your cat. She is so beautiful!

[@59kuphoff]

Thank you for the recipe! It looks like it will serve several people. Glad to see your smiling face. Praying for God's mercy on us all.

[@kirbygulbrandsen4507]

It’s great to see you’re still able to drop the videos. Stay safe during these troubled times. Always watching from Panama City Florida, USA. 🇺🇸

[@debbiemiller8168]

I pray all will work out! I want to keep watching your videos. Keep praying for the best. Do you have a post office Box? That way we can still send things to you. Stay safe my friend. Thinking of you and all The Russia people.❤️🙏🏼

[@doreendaykin6693]

I was VERY happy to see your post today!! I had to go searching for it. I am in 🇨🇦. It is Saturday evening and we are experiencing heavy rainfall (LOTS OF RAIN) and hurricane force winds. Again I am so happy to see you. I love your videos!a!!! I lost the travel bug many years ago. There was just nowhere I wished to go…..I am retired and have been content here in my condo with my cat especially thru Covid. However your videos have lit a passion in me to see and experience St. Petersburg. It started a passion in my heart. I long to go so I began a travel savings fund….and then …world events changed everything.. My heart is very sad. I worried about losing contact with you so much gratitude for this buckwheat episode.🙏💗🙏💗🙏 I have only been able to get buckwheat flour ( either fine or corse) not the brown buckwheat you show but I will try health food stores. My father used to cook it when I was a child. Thank you for sharing your recipe and your time preparing it. I hold all of us in my prayers every night. Blessings & gratitude 🙏💗🙏💙🙏

[@roger6965]

Thank you for sharing the recipe, I'm from Canada and we are starting to feel the higher prices and shortage of certain foods, please keep safe and Bless you. We will all get through this.....

[@tinwisconsin8679]

We love you Ksenia, stay safe

[@nategreensacker6252]

good recipe, looks delicious. I did eat buckwheat twice cooked. I have had buckwheat pancakes. Was pretty good. I wish you well and will make sure to watch your videos. You're a great person and one of the best youtubers. 👍💪💯

[@sallylambert7552]

Hugs to you Ksenia! So good to see you. So sweet kittie! So funny! It sounds just like ...more. i love it! Hugs to your mom. Sending healing prayers. Hope your brother is well. Good video! Stay safe and strong. Hugs!

[@ARWest-bp4yb]

Hi Ksenia, nice to see you, and glad to see you're feeling better! It so unfortunate that the sanctions are affecting everyday folks like you, hopefully things will get better sooner than later. Your recipe looks delicious, we'll have to go to our local Russian market and get some buckwheat!✌✌

[@dianeandbrad529]

some grocery stores like whole foods tend to carry buckwheat flour

[@bearpawz_]

@@dianeandbrad529 Yep, some stores even have it in the bins. 👍 And also, Bob's Red Mill (in stores or online) sells buckwheat grain, buckwheat flour, buckwheat pancake & waffle mix, and also something called "Organic Creamy Buckwheat Cereal". 🥣 A stack of hot buckwheat pancakes sounds good! 😋 ....Hi Ksenia! We all miss you.. 👋 xoxo

[@gingersmith2888]

There is a Russian market in my area in Minnesota, US. I love going there from time to time. I hope they haven't been affected by all of the political nonsense going on, but I have a feeling they will suffer economically if they haven't already.

[@ARWest-bp4yb]

@@gingersmith2888 We have one near Boston so we want to go and support them!

[@ARWest-bp4yb]

@@dianeandbrad529 True, but we want to show our support for the local Russian community.

Hello Ksenia it's so good to you're doing well. The buckwheat looks delicious! I'm praying your mom gets better. Love from Virginia!

[@karengarner9839]

I'm glad u were able to upload your videos, Im glad that u know many ways to make affordable meals, and are such a smart resourceful young woman. Times are going to be bleak for awhile, I pray this is resolved quickly. Much love.

[@chessgirlvegas]

Did you use raw or roasted buckwheat? Your recipe looks good. Thank you. :) God Bless you. I'm praying for peace and an end to war.

[@houndlover870]

In America it's called Buckwheat Groats. I think it's called "groats" because it's a seed that was toasted and its hull or outer covering removed. I tried it cooked with apples, cinnamon and brown sugar with a little butter on top. It was very good!

[@pandora4078]

I am so glad ur still making videos and still smiling, even though times are so rough there right now. I pray all of this ends soon!!! Keep your head up and keep smiling please....

So glad for a video from you! 🤗

[@cynthiaescamilla2649]

I watched this video again, along with the April 3rd video. I have confidence in you, Ksenia, that you and your family will survive the sanctions for as long as you need to. You always impress me with your intelligent, thoughtful comments, and your resourcefulness seems to be unlimited. You inspire me to try to be a better me. Thank you for all that you do. Sending you some love from Aurora, Illinois. USA. 😊

[@suzyclue7]

Ksenia I feel so bad this is happening. It's out of our hands and all we can do is hope and pray that we get back to normal. I sense too it's hard times ahead. All we can do is make the best of it. Hope KZbin does not shut down. The US knows the people of Russia are good people. Thank you for the recipe and all the best to your Mom. Get well soon! Stay strong!

[@lidiaadobato7822]

Hola Ksenia! It's so good to see you safe and sound, keeping your spirit up and your sense of humour. Your recipe looks great, I could even smell it from SouthAmerica! Haven't eaten buckwheat in my life but I know it's very nutritious. We call it "trigo sarraceno". Ksenia, I'm avoiding comments that might affect your safety but you have to know that many outside Russia are crossing their fingers for you and for the crisis to be over soon. Lots of love from Argentina.

[@maryschrum7044]

So happy to see your video posted. Please stay safe and speedy recovery to your mom.

Great recipe, cheap, whole some and filling! Great to see you cooking again! Glad to see you helping your Mom! Spring, is coming, time to start planting the garden. If you can get out of the city you can get back to the earth, garden, raise some chickens/goats etc... But living with Ma? Maybe not so good, my Mom would drive me crazy if we lived together.

[@berylmadison2363]

Your meal looked delish! It is very hard to find buckwheat in my area in US..I would love to have it since I am allergic to wheat..I will try your dish with rice..stay safe and hope I will be able to get you again soon💖💖

Looks delicious! Thank you for sharing your recipe. I’m glad to see you. I’m so sorry you guys will have to suffer through sanctions through no fault of yours. Please keep posting so we know you’re ok.

[@tthappyrock368]

I grew buckwheat in my garden last year for the first time. Lots of tiny white and pink flowers! Didn't get to the point where there was anything to harvest. This year, I will try again. Our stores typically don't have whole buckwheat. They do carry the flour in some places (US). I'm excited to try your recipe!

[@paulayfraimov6812]

[@TeresaTeresaTeresa-t5o]

I love buckwheat. We grew up eating it in Canada and my mother put it in everything. At the time we weren’t so crazy about it but it’s comfort food to me now. You’re version is much fancier than what we were used to and I will make it and call it Ksenia’s Kasha.
