What's Uzbekistan's Most Secret Food?

[@angelachouinard4581]

This was wonderful Konstantin. You seem much less stressed and happier and that you are relaxing and enjoying the simple things. Uzbekistan has so much beauty. I love to learn about food from different countries, I hope you will share more Uzbek food with us.

[@ruthcrawford3015]

I love this video!!! I really love seeing how other people in the world live! Love the simplicity and beauty of it all...Uzbekistan's roadside cafe's and market! I will bet NO ONE EVER responded to a McDonald's hamburger like this!!!! Thanks so much for sharing!!!

[@INSIDERUSSIA]

Thank you Ruth ❤️

[@janetmurphy7053]

It's always the water quality that makes the difference in brewing tea and also coffee. Mountain spring water tea sounds amazing.

[@busterhyman103]

Much better to see you out in the countryside, in the fresh air, eating local foods, sharing traditions - rather than sitting at a boring table. Inhale deeply and smile...we are with you. ( south Florida )

[@cytryna]

привет from Poland! OMG "tapczan" in Polish means a type of couch or sofa made of wooden box and mattress on top. You can use it as a bed or regular sofa, inside wooden box bedclothes are usually kept. This grass resembles spinach and just like in Popeye cartoon, you'll become powerful if you eat some :) These pierogi and szaszłyki look soo tasty!

[@conniemerritt4466]

Looked good to me! We lived for 3 years in Bulgaria so to drive out to the country and eat the wonderful breads, shishki (bbq beef, lamb) was an great experience. The people would give us all they had. Thanks for bringing back the memories. Enjoyed it very much Konstantine.

[@deva5488]

Constantine, I am so impressed. Wonderful video. Well filmed, this was just very, very, professional. Especially with everything you have been dealing with. I hope you can make more videos such as this. I enjoyed this so much!

[@mariar8261]

I'm glad you clarified that it was not "mador grass" because as I was watching the video I did a quick search and found that mador is "allium motor" - it's in the onion family, while the plant you showed resembled spinach, which would also be quite healthy. The samsa so resemble gozleme of Turkey, and the attire of the women is similar to villagers there, too. It's wild how far Turkic culture extends. Thanks for the video, and it's good to see you more relaxed than you've seemed in weeks.

[@joyhanson8654]

yes Samsa! I thought it looked just like spinach too, right? Love those.

[@laurensutherlandisradical3419]

That looks so beautiful Konstantin. Gorgeous mountains. Love from Australia 🇦🇺❤️

[@paulgooderham]

What a tonic, K. This video really restores our strength.

[@linibellini]

I've wanted to travel to Usbekistan for a while now, it seems like one of the most fascinating places to me. I love how different cultures mixed, you see the clear influences from East Asia, Persia / Arab culture and Russian culture. But the outcome is something that is so unique. I'm actually learning Russian so that when I travel I will be able to get to know people better than if I just try with English.

[@INSIDERUSSIA]

My QUESTION OF THE DAY: Did you notice FLORIDA in this video? 😂

[@TeresaDMouth]

YES. The carry bag had FLORIDA on it where the lady was selling. Small bazaar. Souvenirs? But American tote or carry bag. 😂💜

[@evelynkorjack2126]

yes i saw it, i am in florida. i would rather have a pierogi or tandoor bread filled with anything than a you know what burger

[@gavtex1065]

I noticed ‘Florida’, actually double tapped (rewind 15 secs) to confirm - just near the ‘angry birds’. 😂 Nice vid Konstantin and hello from Australia good to see you enjoying what looks like very relaxing countryside.

[@Anne-qj6xo]

Haha. I saw it.

[@maryannl5846]

Had to rewatch to catch it, was too focused on local atmosphere the first time.

[@hulkhulk5141]

My man, adapt improvise and overcome!!! It’s great to see you living life!!

[@Jenza82]

Konstantin, I’m a fairly new subscriber from Sweden. Love your videos and informative livestreams. What an absolute gorgeous scenery at that place! Guess Uzbekistan is on my bucket list now. Stay strong! 💪🏻

[@bluestar7757]

Wow it’s beautiful there✨ look at those mountains 🏔

[@williambradford352]

Thank you for having the talent to produce a well done travel log video of your dining experience. I look forward to watching your adventures. Best wishes!

[@donmige81]

you should do more of this type of videos that shows the life styles of these areas of eurasia.

[@julesf.]

Love this video! I’m so glad to see you getting out and doing normal things again. Just make sure to get plenty of rest. When you were talking about the green tea I suddenly had an idea. Since you don’t have your other tea with you right now, maybe I can order some and send it to you at your new place. Just to maybe give you some sense of “normalcy” and comfort.

[@annaf3915]

Wow I love this already! Even the first scene feels like the outskirts of my hometown Vienna photoshopped in front of the Spanish Sierra Nevada. I 've lived and traveled all over Europe, some of North and West Africa, Southeast Asia, India and Central and South America but this part of the world still remains a mystery to me. Thanks for this!

[@annaf3915]

I don't know if this is something you usually do on your channel but I'd love to see some interviews with the locals there

[@donnaprice3148]

Very enjoyable tour. So glad to see you out in the sunlight with a smile.

[@INSIDERUSSIA]

Yes it was therapeutic

[@silvershadow013]

Thank you for taking us along with you! What a great story! You'll have to tell us in May how the real one tastes!!! Much love! 😄

[@allan010101]

What an amazing journey. I liked the ending. You have to go back and show us the Mador grass. The sauce you put on the tandoori looked like yogurt. Do you know the spices they use? I would love to try the dried grapes. I am enjoying your videos.

[@dottiecooper683]

Awesome video! I love seeing other cultures specialties from all around the world. What fantastic beauty !

[@Anne-qj6xo]

Great video. As a botanist, I was intrigued. So I had to research this. Mador grass is Allium motor and in the Alliaceae (onion) family. It wouold have slender grass-like leaves as it is a monocot. This is clearly not that as they said. It looks very much like dandelions, Taraxacum officinale, a common weedy species in the sunflower (Asteraceae ) family. It is a broadleaf dicot. I noticed the purplish roots and hollow stems characteristic of dandelion. I love dandelion leaves. Very tasty. If I am wrong someone correct me. As a Floridian, I also noticed the Florida bag hanging from the tree:)

[@susanmaguire1503]

Looks like a close relative to Allium tricoccum. Grows here in Massachusetts and is called wild leek. Is one of those "spring tonic" wild foods. Same plant is called ramps in the South. check out Allium tricoccum and see if you agree.

[@Anne-qj6xo]

@@susanmaguire1503 Not possible. Allium is a monocot. The leaves are clearly a broadleaf (dicot). I suspect the Asteraceae family. Many species are cool season plants.

[@johnsipple4113]

You look so much more relaxed. I'm very happy for you. The food looks delicious!

[@TeresaDMouth]

I love this video! It's unbelievable, but we have something very similar to that bread with grass in Italy. And also the thing where they cook meat on short skewers is very tipycal of the region where I live, we cook sheep's meat kebabs on it. The world is ONE.

The number of Russian dead in Ukraine is 10 times worse than you thought. Ukraine number is 17K Russian dead. US number is about 10K. IN ONE MONTH! Udraine civilians nobody knows, but is probably at least 5000. About 200 kids. 50 hospitals destroyed by Russian bombs and artillary. City of Mariupol 90% destroyed by Russian bombs and artillary 150,000 civilians trapped that Russians will not let escape.
