I live where kolaches are common, since many Czech people moved to Cedar Rapids, Iowa in the US long ago. I've mentioned the food item to people in Texas, and they love them, but they expected meat in them, rather than fruit. Seeing this video showed me even more variants the Texans have come up with. As for learning Czech, I still think we would learn better if the term was taught at the start of the video, and then incorporated into the video a few times, enough for us to get used to hearing it in context.

@johnnygomez7063 Год назад

In Texas has been huge Czech community living there for generation s - thats why the Czech food has been widely present among all local Texas offers.

@saphiregirl90 Год назад

Yeah we love the meat ones in Texas but that's mostly because we have started calling sausage rolls kolaches. Why? No idea 😂 But if you are from Central Texas you know about all the kinds!!! My favorite was always apricot!

I've seen nice document about Czexas , immigrants from Czech that moved to US in late 1800 or early 1900 and their kids that were around 60 years old were in that document and they could speak little bit Czech , it sounded like a preserved older version of Czech language.

I'm from Texas and it's really neat that something that I've grown up enjoying (the savory "Kolache") has made it all the way back to its roots. Full circle. Very, very cool.

We in Hungary have Kalács [kuh-lutch], which is more or less the Austrian milch brit, and it's mainly sweet, often with raisins or cocoa in it. The other thing is called Kürtős kalács, translated to English as Chimney cake, but you have seen the word kalács correctly in it. Kürtős kalács is coming from Transylvania (West Romania, people here often speak Hungarian [as they are Hungarians]).

@ko_tech Год назад

Coincidentally, I saw a video about how Texans enjoy our koláče (kolache) just yesterday. That really surprised me since it's such an ordinary pastry here in Czechia. However, I'm glad they do. Also, I believe the sweet version is popular there as well (at least based on the video that I saw). I've yet to see a poppy seed filling, though. That one is my favorite. I'm not visiting Texas until then! (jk)

@vermull19 Год назад

I disagree. The classic trdelnik is really delicious on its own, but you won't find it in Prague (I had it at the market in Babiččino údolí (Grandma's Valley), for example), but I think the Frozen queen is excellent. It is a trdelnik with ice cream, chocolate and strawberries. The Prague trdelnik alone is not worth the money.

I am all for propagating Czech pastries but the prices they ask for them in the centre or in coffee shop chains hurt my eyes. And it’s hard to find really tasty ones. Last year I spent few months in Prague on a break from living in UK and the best place I found for kolace (except my granny’s kitchen) was on Namesti Bratri Synku, there’s a tiny hut called Pekarna a cukrarna Horovice (bakery/pastry shop) and not only were the prices very low, they also had the best kolace, soft and generous on fillings, which also tasted just as they should. It was the only place where I said yup, this is actually it, so there’s my recommendation :) And it’s not even far from the city centre and lots of trams stopping there.

I may be a bit biased (I'm from Transylvania, where it's originally from - correct me if I'm wrong), but a fresh, hot "kürtőskalács", crispy on the outside, soft on the inside is pure heaven. Not the ice-cream filled abomination of course but the real one. Why it's gotten so popular in Prague, it puzzles me too...

As a Hungarian I was baffled about the amount of Chimney Cakes and Lángos I could find in Prague, as they are traditional Hungarian things, and Prague has more of them than Budapest

@spicek9317 Год назад

every Czech likes langos and can make it at home or you can buy it at almost every train station or in front of Kaufland. just like the Szeged goulash, I also have to make it at home once a month.

@@leventelajos5078No, that statement doesn't hold. Tell me, ehat Czech influence is there in Hungarian culture? They borrow a lot more than we do in return.

Love kolache! Every time I go to Dallas I stop at that bakery. They are so good.

I'm not Czech, but I have been regularly visiting Prague and the Czech Republic since the early nineties when I was a teenager. I was really surprised when one year I started seeing trdelnik places. I didn't recognise them, but I thought maybe I was wrong. Good to know I am not crazy! But however much I enjoy the Czech Republic, I have never liked the food. Only smazeny syr! Oh and kolac (also with poppy seeds, when I was young I thought it was a weird chocolate)

I am sure koláč was on the breakfast buffet at my hotel in Prague. Smaller but with a custard like filling. Loved them 😋 In Canada you can get Hungarian chimney cakes both sweet and savoury and another shop puts ice cream in them. Not well known but those that try them love them. Never met a pastry I didn’t like 😉
