SERBIAN Food Tour in Belgrade, Serbia - GIANT Pork Knuckle + Is Serbian Food Best in the Balkans?

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Hey everyone! What's your favourite kind of Rakija? Thanks for watching!

[@МирославКострешевић-в3з]

Apricot or quince brandy...

[@justcallmened_]

Apricot for sure

[@HungryTwoTravel]

@@МирославКострешевић-в3з Good choice!

[@HungryTwoTravel]

@@justcallmened_ Mmm the apricot is soo good 😋

[@zikakurjak2362]

Traditional brandy in Serbia is plum brandy(from Požegača plums and Ranka plums)and it is No. 1, followed by Loza grape brandy, Viljamovka pear brandy, quince brandy Dunjevača, apricot brandy Kajsijevača... this is just a little to know about Serbian brandy, since you are dear guests in beautiful Serbia !!!!😊

[@ivanadimitrova7916]

I watched your Bulgarian food tasting and I want to mention that the food you eat in Serbia we eat it too as a traditional one. But I should give the Serbs credits for their meat cooking because it is phenomenal! ❤

[@gerillazack77]

Ова свињска коленица је прво димљена па кувана/барена, те допечена.

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Yes there's quite an overlap of food in the Balkans, but each country does it a little different.. The food is just so good. 😋🤤 Thanks for watching!!

[@milosb9979]

Yes, Bulgaria also inherited Orthodox Christianity from Serbia...not only food culture, also the languages itself are pretty similar.

[@St_just]

Inherited what? Are you trolling or dropped school at the age of 14? Orthodox came to Slavs from Byzantine/Constantinopole... ​@@milosb9979

[@ivanadimitrova7916]

@ I think that we have the same language but it’s the dialects that is different 😃

[@NicolasDudic-ph4kd]

So delicious👌 Thank you so much Excellent vidéo !! Vive la Serbie 🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Thanks for watching!

[@paularound4876]

Loved the video🎉! It's so nice to see seasonal foods used. It means it's so fresh and local! The Serbian boreks look awesome! Definitely would pass on the veal brains!!

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Totally, we love seeing that, makes such a difference in the cuisine... just like Ontario corn 🌽😜 The burek was delish, the brains are a little acquired of a taste.

[@misailic8553]

Stomaklija - Stomak means stomach. It is made mostly from plum and medicinal herbs, 12 of them.

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Oh interesting! You could totally taste the herbs, very strong. Thanks for the info 😉

[@Misiracaltudamecekas-qw8xo]

@@HungryTwoTravelManastirka better than any Jägermeister is a German digestive made with 56 herbs and spices. Developed in 1934 by Wilhelm and Curt Mast, it has an alcohol by volume of 35%. The recipe has not changed since its creation and continues to be served in its signature green glass bottle

[@HungryTwoTravel]

@Misiracaltudamecekas-qw8xo that's very cool, thanks for the info!!

[@arpadjszabo]

Crapes with Eurokrem. Everyone's comfort food here in Serbia. :)

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Mmm yes! The best choice 😉

[@pathfinder2reality]

Wow, you really went full local. Tripe soup and fried brains are a very gourmet things and not everyone likes them. Kudos to you for trying something unusual that not many food vloggers show. Excellent content!

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Thanks so much! We really enjoy trying the local foods, no matter what they are, we figure you gotta try everything at least once, usually twice 😜

[@ikiddyounot]

Steph and Chris, your videos are always a highlight of a new week! Love how adventurous and cheery the both of you are and also appreciate how you always eat the sorts of food that I myself enjoy. Take care and stay safe!

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Thank you so much, Feng 🧡! We're happy you're enjoying our Balkans series 😉 the food is seriously delicious here. Same to you 😉

[@Janko881]

Here is a recommendation for food, beef tails, here in Serbia they are a specialty, you won't regret it. All the best

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Ooh beef tails, sounds delicious! We'll check it out! Thanks for the suggestion 😊

[@dejanstanojevic6484]

​@@HungryTwoTravelFor good beef tails you must go to Niš or Pirot (south of Serbia). Just as many other delicious food. Because the best food in Serbia is on south.

[@Scrooge1Percenter]

Enjoy, Guys. I love Belgrade, one of the friendliest cities in Europe but the ones that you regret when you check your weight, haha

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Haha too true🤣🤣

Agreed!! Thanks for watching :)

[@St_just]

ok, I'm watching these amazing fresh, juicy, colorfull food, and then I'm switching back to my frozen microwave plastic wraped gray lunches... Lucky you...

[@HungryTwoTravel]

The food in Serbia is especially delicious, that's for sure!

[@mi10perso34]

Outside of Belgrade you'll have 2 crêpes for this price 😅 I live at 140 km from Belgrade and for 350 RSD (~3 euros) you'll have 2 of them in restaurant (classic Eurocrem without banana), so when I back to France sometimes to eat some Galette Complète (salted crêpe) in St-Malo, far away from Paris (where I also live), one of my favorite locations in St-Malo is called "Crêperie le Corps de Garde", on the ramparts looking at the sea... I love french galettes/salted crêpes but the price is at least 4x more than Belgrade classic crepes 😭 and I need 2-3 crêpes, 2 salty, 1 sweet, when we go with family or friends, 500km by car in both directions 😅 add gas and highway toll, already 300 euros and near 30 euros per person for 2-3 crêpes and some cidre 😅 then I remember Serbia is cheap in fact, even Belgrade 😅 and when I go to Belgrade I say it's too expansive 😂 compared to the rest of Serbia.

[@HungryTwoTravel]

It's funny how you make those comparisons, then realize it actually isn't that bad where you are 🤣 we loved the crepe here in Belgrade, definitely worth the money 😉

[@robertb8673]

7:53 that real Deal. 😋😛🤤

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Mmmm yes so good!!!

[@milanmihajlovic8569]

Love your videos and don't forget one thing. Rakija connecting people 😊😊😊👌👍

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Always 😉 thanks so much for watching and commenting!

[@CharlesDrickens]

What a feast you both had in Serbia! You guys ate some interesting things in this one. I love tripe soup, so that one looked good to me, and big pieces of tripe in it! I think I'd try the fried brains because you made it look tasty, but I'm not too keen on it. That smoked pork knuckle was so huge too! I've had pork knuckle before, but never smoked. Everything, so amazing as always, and now I'm hungry and will order some delivery 😂

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Thanks for watching and commenting Charles!! We think you'd enjoy it all 😉😋

[@Zoran-i1z]

I am hungty too.. Never dring rakija fast!!-- remeber it😊

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Haha, too true! It's easy to get carried away, but definitely needs to be sipped 😜

[@АнониМуС-е3ю]

@@HungryTwoTravel You are right! Stomaklia is a macerat of strong plum brandy (rakia slivovica) and 12 medicinal herbs, and is used as an aperitif before meals. Yes, strong rakia is drunk slowly and with pleasure. If you want to drink rakia all at once, first inhale the air, drink it, and then slowly exhale. It's the only way to survive ;) You are a wonderful couple, very pleasant and sincere. I wish you all the best in life. God bless you!

[@МихаилоДамњановић]

You need to try riblja corba and gulas that two dish are delicious. Good video guys 👍

[@HungryTwoTravel]

We're adding those to the list! 😊 Thanks for watching!!

[@preedraag]

not yoghurt but sour milk. We here differentiate easily even if it's basically the same type of milk fermentation with slightly different consistency.

[@katarinabg4551]

[@HungryTwoTravel]

😊😋🤤

[@strobika]

Burek wise, if you stay in Serbia more, please visit Pekara Stankoski in Pancevo, i've ate a lot of burek in my time but Stankoski blew my mind. My personal favorite combo is chicken thie with gorgonzola cheese and then i go for the sweet one, plazma and eurokrem. They are most famous for their burek with kolenica. But there are bunch of flavours. Pancevo is about 20-30 min away from Belgrade. Rakia wise quince rakia :)

[@HungryTwoTravel]

Wow that sounds incredible!! We'll definitely put them on our list! Thanks for the suggestion and for watching 😊

[@strobika]

@@HungryTwoTravel The inside is so fluffy like a pillow and the outside is so crunchy omg i got the munchys now :(

[@HungryTwoTravel]

@strobika omg yum that sounds insanely delicious😋🤤

[@strobika]

@@HungryTwoTravel it is actually, you are going to have to try it :)

[@strobika]

@@HungryTwoTravel one thing though, their work time is kind of short they work 6 am till 12 pm or if they sell what they got they close early, and they dont work on sunday. hope that helps

[@stevannikolovski]

5:40 Kiselo mleko, literally we call it sour milk. Its made from cow, goat or sheep milk. Basically something between milk and Pavlaka which is even more thicker than this. Vegans on life support when they see that kolenica lol

[@HungryTwoTravel]

🤣🤣🤣

[@maddjole]

At the beginning, so-called sarma sa listinom, which are always eaten and combined with kiselo mleko...it is not common throughout Serbia, but very tasty 😋

[@HungryTwoTravel]

😋😉

[@beograd07]

Let me disagree. It is common in summer time and it is called Sarmica sa Zeljem. As Chris correctly stated, in winter time (Sauerkraut in Germany) fermented cabbage leaves are stuffed with rice and mincemeat and some fine chopped smoked speck. It is all cooked with some smoked meat and spices and condiments. It is rich in flavour and calories. In summer time the conditions are not in favour of fermenting the cabbage (or harvest time of fresh cabbage) so instead they use chard leaves readily available in summer months. Also, it is usually less heavy meal than Sarma. Because the chard leaves are not sour and a bit bitter, that dish goes well with sour cream or yogurt. Some people cook Sarmice adding vinegar to the leaves to substitute for fermented cabbage leaves taste, but they are missing crunchiness of cabbage. So because cabbage fermentation season is at the beginning of the winter and chard season time is summer, this is why these two dishes are freshly available in their season’s available time. You can always prepare some Sarma in summer too as the fermented cabbage leaves can be frozen for summer or fermented in a very small quantities (bucket) just for the meal but generally not many people enjoy rich sarma in summer time.

[@maddjole]

@@beograd07 Nisam uopšte pominjao u koje doba godine se jede koja sarma, vec je poenta bila da se ova sarma pravi od biljke zvane listina(listovi gorkastog ukusa) i zato se sa kiselim mlekom savršeno uklapa. Znači ne pravi se sa zeljem i koliko ja znam, pravi se uglavnom u valjevskom kraju, u drugim krajevima i ne znaju za listinu i samim ne prave tu sarmu. E sad sta je on tačno jeo u Bg ja ne znam, ali liči na sarmu sa listinom. U svakom slučaju toplo preporučujem sarmu sa listinom, one su uglavnom dosta manje i jedu se maltene iz jednog zalogaja. 😊 Sportski pozdrav svim gurmanima. 😁

[@beograd07]

@@maddjole OK prihvatam objašnjenje i priznajem da nisam ni čuo za sarmicu sa listinom i koliko vidim na google one su kraće i deblje od sarmice sa zeljem (zbog oblika lista listine). Ovo što je on jeo su sigurno sarmice sa zeljem jer su duže od slika sarmice sa listinom. Po receptu sa google vidim da se sarmice sa listinom pune sa skoro istim sastojcima pa pretpostavljam da je i ukus isti. Zelje je isto malo gorko mada ako se kuva sa malo sirćeta može da izgubi gorčinu ali ipak se uvek nudi kiselo mleko ili jogurt kao dodatak. Mislio sam da su sarmice sa listinom ista stvar (drugi naziv) pa sam zato pominjao godišnja doba, jer ako neko zimi traži sarmice sa zeljem teško će da ih nađe sveže pa onda može da se zaključi da ih retko ima u Srbiji.

[@maddjole]

@@beograd07 Da verovatno je ukus isti ili sličan, s tim što se meni svidja taj gorkast ukus kako god. Inače sve si u pravu što se tiče doba godine kad se koja sarma jede. Lepo je videti konverzaciju istinskih ljubitelja sarme. 😆😊

It is confusing, in Serbia yugort is Kiselo Mleko ie sour milk. and yogurt is like Kefir the drinkable one. the opposite of what you expect.

Next time eat pig and lamb on a spit (prasetina i jagnjetina sa raznja) if you haven't already eaten it, it is usually eaten at room temperature, but I like it hot, usually tourists never eat this because they don't even know about it.
