Ha! Yeah, it was my favourite bit. I used to part own a charcuterie business back in the UK so have a real interest. Lots of scope for future meat videos as so much to cover.
Hi neighbor and regards from Lithuania :) I'm so glad that I found your channel, it's so nice to see homesteaders "from real world" if you know what I mean :) And especially nice to see another homesteader from Baltic States. It's so nice to see that our people is so similar with traditions, food, names and other stuff :) We with my wife brought homestead not far from Latvian border and have a plan to move there full time. Trying to make videos just for ourselves, uploading to youtube, if you interesting, you are welcome to watch :) I'm subscribed to your channel and can't wait for next video. P.S. Your video "Malka" is a masterpiece, please do more! :)
Hey, sorry I missed this comment. I know we already spoke. Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed Malka, I enjoyed making it. There will be more similar sometime :)
Dill pickle chips are a common "Lays" brand of chips in Canada. Ketchup is another variety that people tend to find weird haha. Love the video. I miss the kvass from Lithuania. Hoping you make some more videos, especially about Latvian beer and charcuterie
"Dad, can you just make candy videos from now on?" Absolutely adorable! Great video. Great choices and I'm looking forward to getting back and expanding my palette.
Hey ! Just bought karums from maxima, I have tasted with different flavors. I loved it ! :) :) Please make part 2 with more delicious food ----- Greetings from India
I miss Mr and Mrs Lazden, they come to our country at start of world War 2, Germany invaded and destroyed their home and killed her Son. She adopted me as her daughter I helped her cook when little and as I grew older took her shopping. She always cooked special foods for us when they had company, invited us to their home but we left them to enjoy friends they had in Latvia. The meat filled roll is my comfort food as well as a lemon cookie that we kind of shaped into fingers.
Thank you, lovely video! My mouth is watering. It’s not that easy to get Latvian products where I live in England. I totally agree with products. Great choice. Never tried estonian powder. I would also add Adazi tomato flavoured crisps, Vecriga cake (caki with an eclair type dough filled with some cottage cheese and cream) and medus kuka (honey cake), freshly baked pastries bought in bakeries and I absolutely love how now new york cheesecakes are made in Latvia buying in coffee shops.
Also to mention, that Black balsam was created in 18th century by a pharmacist and contains 45% of alcohol and a lot of herbs, that are believed helping to stay healthy. When you have a cold you can have a shot. It is popular to have with a black coffee as you mentioned, but also you can have it with blackcurrant juice heated up and it’s almost like a mouled wine and I actually prefer balsam hot drink.
No medus kūka!? Booooo! Just kidding, great video, never heard or tried the hemp butter, maybe i might get to this year depending on how things turn out.
I JUST found the Karums at a local international market in the USA they are pretty awesome! How are you supposed to store them? I can't find much info on them from where I'm from.. They were frozen when I bought them, but yours look soft. Do you keep the Frozen or just refrigerated?
Never heard of it, nor had my wife, but it’s not exactly unique to latvia, it’s not all that common now due to historical over fishing. Most folk ewt rhe lamlrey eel - negis.
@@BalticHomesteaders It's becoming less common especially because of the spread of cormorants, who used to be rare in the past. But, if you drive from Jurmala to Roja, you'll pass several small fish shops, and from there you should still be able to get it. When Latvians come to fish in Estonia, they are so desperate to trade any eelpouts the locals have caught, that it has deserved the nickname "Latvian eel".
