Five European pastries you should give a try 

well... not really but close enough.

The portuguese ... what? Tart?

There was some place I went to in Sintra that had awesome pastries.

Please mention some so I could look for recipes also authentic places to have some when i visit Portugal. Thanks!

@@JohnTronto you can travel whole Portugal to try it, you have it in the north, south and islands...but to summarize everything and help you in this journey just go to a pastry shop called ALCOA, you can find it in CHIADO - center of Lisbon or if you really want to go to the original one, you go to a town in central Portugal called ALCOBAÇA! They have the best pastry chefs in Portugal that follow the recipes of the nuns, most of this pastries were invented by nuns in convents and monasteries. Besides this pastry heaven called Alcoa you have to try: PAO DE LÓ From OVAR, TORTAS DE AZEITAO From Setúbal, DOCES REGIONAIS From Algarve, PÃO de DEUS From Padaria Portuguesa (pastry shop in Lisboa too), MIL FOLHAS (it’s just like pastéis de nata, you have to search in every pastry shop who has the best MIL FOLHAS) and the list goes on and on...👍🏻😋 Have a delicious stay in Portugal

Lies again? Semen Sperm USD SGD

Pastéis de te tentugal C*rAlHo

Yes you're right! Its pastry porn right here in our country 🤣🇵🇹

Tbh they made pasteis de nata our “international” pastry they now sell them all over the world and apparently the asians love them even kfc sell them 😂😂😂

Churros are from China, not Spain.

​@@Egr-et6ar😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

​@@Egr-et6ar Says who?😂😂😂

Churros is probably the worst, just fried dough.

@@hawkingdawking4572 G00gle.

They're nice, but overrated honestly. Sfogliatelle are much, much better

wait for part 2

@@AndrewIndoChannel There's going to be a part 2? 🤔

You are dead right!

​@@RendererEPsfogrietelle is really hojaldres. Sefardí invent, no italian

like as doner ye.

churos made of Adana red lights street desert.

Churros are from China. The Spanish horchata (a creamy summer drink made from the chufa nut, native to Africa) and turron (an almond nougat candy) still taste of their Moorish past. A perfect example of the sweet Moorish heritage is the soplillo de la Alpujarra. The Moors introduced almonds in pastry making, and now it's an essential part of Spanish gastronomy including the famous tarta de almendras in Spain. Other desserts influenced by the Moors are now also Christian inspired, such as torrijas de Semana Santa (Spanish french toast) and tocinos de cielo (egg and syrup flan). Could go on.

​@@Egr-et6aryou are a authentic fake.😂😂 The chufa IS from África, yes and?. The horchata IS to valencia invent, some turrón, turrón the first reference IS in xixona and Alicante, valencia. Nougat IS a french copy. Pestiños, soplillo etc IS posible andalusí heritage. The churros from china IS 😂😂😂😂 ridículous. For the world, churros IS a spanish sweet, the machine that made churros IS spanish imvent, the churrero profession IS spanish, the tradition to eat with chocolate is spanish etc you hilarious. Not red wikipedia, wikipedia IS fake, IS a free Page

​@@Egr-et6arAnd you? What are you made of? Where do your genes come from? Are you 100% pure and authentic?

@@victorgomez4107 Europeans have 3 common ancestors, indigenous hunter-gatherers, and the other 2 of them is Middle Eastern farmer DNA and Eurasian Steppe. Lounes Chikhi, from University College London, and colleagues estimated that Middle Eastern farmers contributed roughly 50 per cent of the analysed genes to modern European populations. Since modern-day northern Europeans descended in large part from the Corded Ware culture and therefore have more steppe ancestry than first-farmer ancestry. The modern populations with more Yamnaya-derived ancestry are, if I remember it correctly, the Norwegians and the Scottish.

@@Egr-et6ar WE HAVE PRODUCT LIKE "JAMON", ONE OF THE MOST EXPENSIVE CURE MEATS IN THE WORLD.. YOU SHOULD TRY IT HAHAHHAHA

Agreed. Polish, Czech, Hungarian and Greek pastries are awesome aswell

It was perfectly clear from the second item that unterm*nschen pastries will not be shown. Some habits simply never go away. Funnily though, I expected them to at least sprinkle in some Austro-Hungarian pastries to make it a bit less obvious. Alas, DW staff really didn't feel like traveling to our icky countries and preferred a field trip to London. Cheeky Germans strike again.

You Greeks are very good at pastries!

Churros are from China. Hot chocolate is from Mexico.

​@@Egr-et6arhot chocolate "sweet" IS spanish monacal invent, IS history, and the churros origin china to repeat IS ridículous!!!! Not documentary,churros IS a spanish word, a medieval castilian sweet, and the tradition to churros with chocolate is spanish invent. When spanish Discovery cacao in Azteca empíre, introducing in Spain,here the monacal spanish introducing sugar, the sugar not exist in América to arrived the spanish. You are authentic fake. 😂😂😂😂😂

@@Egr-et6ar churros sound very china, of course jajaja 🤣🤣 churros IS medieval castilian sweet. And the sweet chocolate is a spanish monacal invent. The sugar not exist in América to arrived spanish. You theory is fake

@@jaimegarcia9408 The sugar no exist in Spain. Sugar is from Asia.

@@Egr-et6arspammer. Spain hater? Ignorant? Saw that on social media? No books? No thing

Not even in our country its the best pastry...there are dozens better...but of course pasteis de nata are great and delicious but not the best in my opinion.

I'd like to try that some day too. Baumkuchen seems to have been invented earlier though with the first recipe dating back to the 16th century. So, whether pale or not, that might be a reason why baumkuchen is better known and šakotis cake might rather be a different version of baumkuchen. ;-)

@@kommad.2931 the pastry from France was also a variation of another pastry.

It's really not the same as flan. pasteis has thickcrunchy puff pastry, vanilla and the interior is thick / creamy while flan is soft throughout with a very thin crust and no vanilla.

​@@l.d.t.6327french knows we do it better but they are too snob to admit it! 🤣👍🏻

​​​@@l.d.t.6327There is vanilla in most of the flans

​@@Piairompastel de Belém é o melhor de todos e eu nunca comi os outros 😂😂😂😂😂 mas já sei, pq amo pastel de nata e olha que eu nunca fui a Portugal, comi aqui no Brasil mesmo, culinária portuguesa é fantástica

It’s all gross, except for gelato… which is not a “pastry”.

Torta Della Nonna ❤❤ So good

I don't love the cross, but I appreciate your love for the Cross. Happy Easter - the Son of God

They started as Pasteis de Belem... When others started replicating them they called them pasteis de nata

They are called pastéis de Belém, pastéis de Nata is another thing.

Tanto faz, aqui no Brasil a gente chama de pastel de Belém, de Nata de Belém é tudo uma delícia ❤

Have you had a real scone with clotted team and jam not one of those overly sweet American things

This Patry IS hojaldre, the hojaldre is sefardí.

Not exactly true. Several small pastry shops have far better pastéis than the ones in Belém. The reason why people (well, tourists) favour the ones in Belém is because the demand from that shop is so high that the pastries are always sold as they get out of the oven. If you let them rest for a couple of hours they end up tasting exactly like the ones sold in other shops. And the demans is high because Belém is a very popular neighbourhood for tourism, the lines go on forever and the factory must keep baking them on and on throughout the day. If you go to Manteigaria (another very famous pastry shop), you'll get the same quality. Notice how there are nearly no Portuguese customers at the Belém shop? That's because we know where to find other equally good or even better pastéis in other places. There's no secret to these pastries, anyone can make them at home. The only thing is, if you buy them, buy them fresh, and they'll be almost always fantastic.

That’s not really its origin but anyways. Where’d u find the source

@@RandomGamerES it is! In the southern song dynasty , a general was executed, the people hated it and a chef made these dough sticks to resemble the exectutors, fry them and eat them. Symbolism.

Hot dogs?

​​@@kommad.2931 Puff pastry is often called Danish pastry in English. As a teacher of English, I know it for sure )

Butter cookies 😂

Are they spicy? I haven't had Indian sweets before but they look really good from what I've seen.
