@@massimogadolini1055 they are French but they’re also really significant in the Louisiana area because of their creole roots and also they’re culturally really big there
@@artemiscastellan9485 yes but we still have beignet in France. So why including beignet for America if it’s still popular in France? Cronet is more efficient because even if it’s a French man who invented it, it’s only popular in American.
Lol I thought that too when they pronounced it wrong, and then they pronounced it wrong again. I felt second-hand embarrassment when they kept repeating that 🤣 Also I like your profile 😁
@Janet Baker YOU seem like the butthurt one if you’re so mad about a comment on the internet. so practice what you preach and “quit being butthurt over stupid words!”
Technically these are all donuts, a donut is just fried dough with icing and sprinkles. So turn on your brain before hating. Your being as annoying as my sister
First of all, "Donuts" were invented by the Dutch whom had moved to New Amsterdam who brought "oliebollen" with them. Because it was way easier to fry something that didn't have dough in the middle they removed it creating a donut. Second of all, the Dutch version of "Donuts" is NOT oliebollen. We have both.
@@MyPellie no, chill not, we cant just let the so called "creators" go on. we could at least demand a bit of research or knowledge or both. btw. where are Krapfen, Berliner or Pfannkuchen ?
None of them are doughnuts. There are at max 3 in this video that look like doughnuts or similar but the ingredients are all different and they do really have different names so no, they aren't doughnuts. And to the rest of them, they might have pretty similar ingredients but the shape isn't even the same and, again, different names that don't even translate to doughnuts, so that makes none of them as it.
but that's gross dude, she mixed the batter with her whole hand, like ewwwwwww. aren't there any kitchen tools for stirring the batter or hand gloves? lmao
@@peachxxx_980 That is how they do it. Why do you care so much about if she uses a utensil to mix the batter or not, it's not you who's eating that, is it? And gross you say, how tf is mixing batter with hands gross? I'm sure she washed her hands before doing it. There are so many ways of being human, dude.
In India we also eat 'gul-golae' that is a kind of fried banana bread Balls, only eaten on special occasions. And 'dahi baade ' which are fried balls of salty batter that is soaked in water for giving it a nice texture ,and it's eaten along with dahi that is curd.
@@youngday4576 when I saw that Jalebi i was like.....i wanna try that! Sometimes the powdered sugar can stick in the throat and cause coughing. Like cocoa on tiramisu.
In Czechia there's a thing called "Langoš". It's a savory, yeasty and fried dough usually topped with garlic paste, ketchup and cheese. Very popular street food in here.
We have them in the West of Romania as well, I know they originate in Hungary we call them Langoș/Langoși but I didn’t knew they were present on Czechia as well how nice.
They're amazing, if you ever find yourself able to make them/buy them then definitely do so. I've only made them once myself but bought them often from a local "ouma" (granny/grandma) can't eat them anymore since becoming sensitive to gluten but this has actually made me want to try make a batch gluten free! Hope you get to try them one day, you won't regret it.
@@jackiebrainy2274 Exactly! To be fair, a lot of times when foreigners approach food that they aren't very familiar with they get things mixed up, as exemplified in what other cultures are saying in the comment section. But still, they should do better research.
the portuguese ones are really similar to "mekitsi" in bulgaria. We usually eat them with powdered sugar/jam/chocolate or feta cheese. they're devine!!
Hi, I am not a Slav but the fried dough called pyroski is also popular in my country, Greece. It's basically just fried dough with sausage or white cheese in it.
@Janet Baker Jalebi isn't a fried dough; it's a fried batter. Therefore, Jalebi isn't a donut. It has more in common with funnel cake than a donut. The lack of care shows not only ignorance but also disregard for the culture they claim to be trying to represent. They could have talked to any Indian person for ideas of yummy Indian donuts to have shown in this video some of which are in the comments. Jalebi isn't even a result that comes up when you type Indian donuts on google so they didn't even bother doing a less than 30-second google search to find a donut to represent the country with the second-largest population on earth. Yeah, as a half-Indian person I'm a little insulted that they couldn't spend 30 seconds on a google search to make sure that they were being accurate.
Kala, puff puff, beignets are some of the many names of fried dough in west & central Africa. In Liberian culture, we called it doughnut when it's sprinkled with sugar.
It’s not only that, you can have all kinds of fruit and sweet fillings- from cherries, berries to Snickers, Bounty and even Advocaat. Second thing to pączki which is fried are “faworki” - quite unique thing, as I’ve never met anything close to that - very crunchy and sweet
In Poland we have crisp fried "faworki", "kółka" (similar to donuts) and "racuchy" (made from dough raised with yeasts). You should try those sprinkled with powdered sugar.
Mate somehow Sel Roti made it here xD. Love it! We also usually have Sel Roti with spiced Nepali Milk tea very often. Leading cause of diabetes in Nepal though lol
omg i'm so hip i've heard like "yotao", which is perfectly acceptable, but man she took the american accent to another level LOL. I'm pretty sure if she talked to any Chinese colleague she could get the right pronunciation haha
Germany has the best doughnuts called "Berliner/ Krapfen/ Pfannkuchen" depending on what region you're in, though the former is the most popular term. It's traditionally a wheat dough that's fried so it gets a little crunchy on the outside but fluffy and a little chewy on the inside (they're very light). The traditional ones are tossed in sugar after frying and stuffed with jam, but there are also glazed varieties and lots of other fillings like vanilla custard or eggnog available - especially around the Karneval festival.
Here in New Zealand our doughnuts are long (the size of a hot dig bun), filled with whipped cream and topped with strawberry jam and sprinkled with icing sugar. Sooo goood!
In South Africa we also have vetkoeks, they are made the same way,but they are usually lightly seasoned with salt, and you can stuff them up with some stew, meat and other greasy foods, it's so comforting and filling
You missed Pączek. It is a dough with various fillings (most typically sweet filling, especially jam) with various toppings, especially white frosting and orange zest bits. It is traditionally eaten during Tłusty Czwartek (polish equivalement of Mardi Gras (a.k.a Shrove Tuesday), it is held on last thursday before Ash Wednesday, not tuesday)
and other countries that have jalebi in their culture and never knew the origin lol example me a tunisian (also do you guys have it either yellow or neon orange too? or are we just weird)
There's a fried dough dish in Burma/Myanmar. The dough is made of a combination of ghee, milk/water and rice flour. They are served with a sweet brown sugar syrup to dip. The interior texture is soft and chewy.
Odading from indonesia, square doughnut with sesame at the top the flavor was sweet and fluffy, i very enjoyed odading when ramadhan :>, also Odading was discovered when the Dutch colonized Indonesia. There was a little girl who wanted to buy a cake on the side of the road and she called it "odadhing" and that's when odading was a delicious cake that was sold on the roadside. Odading's friend was cakwe or called youtiao :)
I remember always craving for Youtiao when me and my mom were in Singapore to spend my two week holiday when I was still in fifth grade. Didn't knew it was eaten commonly for breakfast lol
We actually have two different variations of them one is called koeksister (that's in the video, which is of afrikaner/dutch origin) and the other koesiester (Capetonian dialect 😅) to differentiate as the latter is spiced with aniseed, allspice etc and similar in shape to a beaver-tail but smaller in size, typically covered in desiccated coconut after being dipped in syrup and has its origin in the Cape Malay community . However both are thoroughly enjoyed by all South Africans , we also have vetkoek and magwenya as additional unique to South Africa fried dough.
In India we have 'neyvadai' and 'inippu ulundhu vadai'. They look exactly like donuts. One is fried and soaked in sugar syrup and the other one is made by frying sweet lentil batter.
in the UK we have just regular fried doughnuts that are generously covered with sugar sometimes we have them with either Nutella or ice cream they are mostly served at seasides and fairgrounds
Also South Africa has vetkoek (fatcake) also called magwinya. Which is a deep fried dough ball which can be stuffed with curried mince or coated with powdered sugar.
Great episode ... but yes, you missed "Logaymat" -- In the Middle East - especially the gulf region :)... fried little balls of goodness usually served during the holy month of Ramadan .. they are similar to the Greek version introduced in your video, however, it's normally served with Date Molasses as a glaze.
I know these are just a tip of a iceberg for all the countries you guys are from. So don't be so upset about missing out on so many other dishes! Let's enjoy
Namak Pare also known as Nimki is also famous in Bangladesh and India And Jalebi is one of my favorite sweets and a very popular sweet in Bangladesh too.
In the Philippines, we have buchi (fried dough ball with a sweet paste inside and is coated with sesame seeds), binangkal (ball shaped like buchi coated with sesame seeds without paste inside), karioka (with sweet shredded coconut meat inside), pilipit/siakoy or shakoy/linubid/lubid-lubid (name depends from what region of the Philippines you are coming from, twisted doughnuts sprinkled with white sugar).
@@jiawen9767 yeah but for an english speaker who doesn't know pinyin, I would decribe it as sounding more like the english word "yo" than the english word "you" which is what "yu" would also sound like in english
