I'm not even Jewish and I'm sitting here like, "If latkes aren't in this I'll riot." We made those every year in elementary school for a cultural learning thing, I loved them!
I agree that the Brisket with broth is the most delicious item that they ate. But the potato onion borekas are delicious when you get used to them. But Bourekas must be fresh and served warm for the best experience.
I feel like when you are given "ethnic" or "regional" food you are always given poorly prepared versions of whatever it is. I noticed that when you did the Thanksgiving video and also now with the Jewish food video. "Matzo ball soup" for example is any soup, usually regular chicken soup, with matzo balls in it - those can be hard to make right. I don't know what oil you had floating there... Also, Tahdig *isn't even a Jewish food*, it's Persian! And Bourekas, while popular in Israel is from the Balkans and not a traditionally Jewish food, and at least serve it warm! And don't worry LJG, there is a TON of meat in kosher cooking. And the Maror?! It should just be shredded horseradish, what the hell did you do to it?! (Also "eaten" wouldn't be the word I'd use. It's eaten _sparingly_ during the seder, it's not a dish served.)
Tahdig is served on Passover and many Shabbat meals in the homes of Persian Jews, sometimes with a potato burned on the bottom. But it is never eaten alone, but served with some type of meat stew.
You're absolutely right, they need to fire their chef and seek out professional chefs. I have never been to Ireland, but the fact that this many people are unaware of "ethnic food" leads me to infer that the restaurants in Ireland don't have a great variety of choice. No wonder New York city blows their minds.
@@72Yonatan yes, plenty of Persian Jews eat tahdig, but it isn't a specifically Jewish food. There are plenty of Jewish foods from the Levant and North Africa they could have chosen.
I love you for setting them straight. I was perplexed as a Jew, as to why this was how all was presented, except for the brisket. Donal was completely redeemed in this video - he was hilarious "I want to be a little Jewish boy." LOL
stephen white Yeah, it's one of those stereotypical Irish things, I guess. Also, I remember an Irish folk song I saw on youtube, about an Irish guy and his cousin beating the English soldiers with shillelaghs, or something, lol.
It can be like that, but in our family we always used horseradish, usually jarred, but occasionally fresh. The trick is to add charoset, which (in the northern European tradition) is a mixture of chopped apples, nuts, and wine. (In the Mediterranean tradition, charoset is made with dried fruit and nuts.) In fact, the ritual consumption at Passover includes dipping the maror into the charoset before serving.
+Daniel Reitman I am Jewish, and I personally love maror, it is better with charoset, but it's fine by itself. Also, I bet loads of people think charoset is pronounced cha rose et. In Hebrew, it's spelled חרושת
As an adult I don't identify with religion, but having grown up in a Jewish family, I have to say that every "Jewish food taste test" video I've seen on youtube (this, Buzzfeed, All Def Digital, etc...) have all been really really terrible representations of "Jewish food"-- which itself is such a broad phrase. They unanimously make "Jewish" food out to be nasty or totally tasteless, colorless, bland mush. And Maror is not Jewish "food." It is symbolically eaten in a tiny portion a few times during the seder before the real meal even begins. No one eats maror as food. And Bourekas are heavenly, so those must have been some awful supermarket-bought things. And I only know my mother's matzoh ball soup, so I don't know what awful stuff was put in front of you guys. And that brisket was definitely just stew... every culture makes some sort of variation of a stew... it's not a "Jewish" dish necessarily. Also, it should be noted that there are Ashkenazi Jews and Sephardic Jews and the foods associated with the two sects are vastly different from one another. Videos like these often feature the Ashkenazi foods because that's what seems to be most widely known by non-Jews; I suppose because of companies like Manishcewitz and Gefen, which do cater largely to Ashkenazi Jews. With as little Sephardic bias as possible, I must admit that Ashkenazi foods are kinda... uhhhh.... not that great (in my opinion). More on the bland side. But maybe what's bland for me is delicious for people who didn't grow up with as much spice in their food like I did with my Sephardic family. I just wish these videos were tackled in a better way, advised by a more involved source. Too late now though haha. Unless you want a part 2! (Hit me up, Facts! :P)
Jews lived in the Persian Empire for quite along time and adopted cuisines from different places all around the world but trying Jewish Tahdig and trying Iranian Tahdig is a very different experience.
Judaism is both a religion and an ethnicity. Persian is neither a religion nor a nationality, it is, however, an ethnicity. There are many people who are ethnically Jewish who are not religiously Jewish. However, there is only one group of traditionally Jewish people (not including converts) who are not ethnically Hebraic.
Fun Fact: The reason why these dishes seem Irish is because the Jewish and Irish immigrants lived in the same neighborhood when they came over to NY. So they often shared and borrowed ideas from each other and thus many of these dishes were born. Also the area use to be German once called "little Germany" so you will also see their influence as well as a heavy Eastern European influence. :)
Ahhhh......no. These Irish....are Irish. In Ireland. There's not much culinary exchange going on between Jews and the wider Irish population...in Ireland.
Irish people try Jewish food part two needs to happen. The next foods: Challah, Charoset, Gefilte fish (sorry everyone), Kugel, Latkes, Rugelach, Hamantaschen, Matzah (goes good with charoset)
+nash3d potatoes I cannot stand lochs, and I have never even tried gefilte fish. I wasn't raised on them, but my mom's family are New York Jews living in Various areas of the East coast and every Bar/Bat Mitzvah, wedding, anniversary, whatever there is almost always an informal brunch at the host's home the day after and those were staples, that and cold cuts. Everyone always thinks I'M THE WEIRD ONE who DOESN'T want cold raw salmon or weird white fish from a jar.
I really like the guy who was sitting next to the girl in the red shirt because he really goes in there with a positive attitude and even thou it’s not flavors he is use to . He seems to sincere when tasting and never disrespectful
I like how they mixed it up between Ashkenazi and Shephardi food. Usually they go with only Ashkenazi. These stew fans would probably be partial to cholent.
Ok, the Mr T's cousin gag was the funniest thing that's ever been said in one of these videos...kudos to that man! Flaky Bourakas, B.A. Baracus...heh, that was great.
+Alastair Ward ....OMG I love that show. It's amazing! In Russia it was so controversial they tried to ban it....yes, the state prosecutor tried to ban it. My mother would not let us watch it but here, eh....she doesn't seem to care. I love that song! I actually love the bashing on Jews because it's hysterical and I don't get offended easily. Best moment...when it's Towlies intervention and Cartman reads his prepared statement. It made me wish I was a shapeshifter. Lol I also want to carry some Jew gold around my neck with a fake pouch of Jew gold to throw people off. I just don't have any gold. 🤑
Just FYI the maror (aka horeradish) is almost never eaten plain; it's often eaten with matzo. Some substitute (or add) romaine lettuce instead of horseradish which is a lot more palatable. Also the bourekas are often served hot, so you got that right. Finally, Tahdig is Persian and usually the crispy rice on the bottom of the pot. It's not usually bland either, rather it's often spiced with saffron, herbs, or spices, making a crispy layer of rice people usually fight over. Nice vid overall!
that's not my complaint, my complaints are that how the FUCK did they not like motzah ball soup. jk, my actual complaint is that they didn't try latkes
Well, there was at least one item misidentified as Jewish, as noted above. More significant is that they managed to serve both meat and dairy courses. Unfortunately for Donal, that means the whole meal was treif.
+Daniel Reitman I've been wanting to convert to Judaism but I'm home from uni so I can't go to synagogue as there isn't one here (I miss attending). Am I right in thinking you need to leave 6 hours between meat and dairy? I'm vegan, so it wouldn't be an issue for me.
+Stacey Goundry.....Yes, did most orthodox it's 6 hours. However, soy cheese tastes good too. Just not as good as the real thing. Eating vegetarian is easier. Most orthodox homes won't keep milk and dairy in the same fridge, use the same pots, pans and utensils or even place them in the same sinks. It can get confusing,
Tahdig is an iranian dish. When made properly its crunchy and crispy part of rice made in a heavy bottom kettle or rice cooker. Its usually served with stews on top.
Well its a Persian food, so I'm sure a lot of Persian Jews eat it. Although if they wanted a sephardi or Mizrachi food that is a little more universally eaten by all Jews, I would've suggested... Kibbeh or Falafel or shakshouka. But they did bourekas, which I think is pretty common.
Good Craic. These "Facts" videos are very entertaining. As an American of some Irish ancestry even I have the closed caption feature enabled to assist me in understanding what they say at times. I think there are some Gaelic words and phrases peppered in , because I cant get it and from time to time the closed caption prints a series of words that make no sense in English. It's endearing and I thank You for brightening my day. I've had my interest in the language of my ancestors renewed.
Maror is only made and eaten during Passover in a Seder. It is bitter herbs usually made with horseradish. If you went to a Jewish person's home for dinner you wouldn't find it there.
Who ever made the first gag sound eating the Maror made me laugh with a mouth full of yogurt.... I spent the next 5 mins cleaning it off the floor and out of my nose... LOL
When Irish people settled in America they lived among many different other immigrant groups. The Jews had beef brisket and the Irish adopted this very affordable cut of meat and made corned beef.
tahdig is Persian... literally means bottom of the pot in Persian. it's the cooked rice at the bottom of the pot and can also be crispy bread or potatoes at the bottom. probably brought to Israel by Persian jews
The matzah ball soup I have had was made with chicken broth not a bunch of oil. The rice thing comes from some where other than Israel and there is a sauce that's suppose to go with it
Nope, you cannot eat it with Bread - it's UNLEAVEN bread that must be eaten at that time (that's why Matzo is used, and why leavened bread is supposed to be taken out of the Jewish household during Passover time)!
Jews lived in the Persian Empire for quite along time and adopted cuisines from different places all around the world but trying Jewish Tahdig and trying Iranian Tahdig is a very different experience.
Most food historians believe that it was invented by Jews in Persia and over time became part of Persian Cuisine. People forget that the Jewish Diaspora brought and created many foods that overtime have become identified with the culture the Jews lived in. Fish and Chips were brought by Jews from the Netherlands to England but most people think of it as a british food. And that is one of hundreds of classic examples. A food that was originally Jewish but overtime became part of the culture the Jews lived in
Wtf tahdig isn't Jewish food; it's Persian. I should know, because my family is from Iran and we eat it all the time. You can also find it at any Persian restaurant you go to.
I'm not surprised that Jews would copy Persian food because in their history they praise the Persians so much about how they freed them from the Babylonians.
Jews lived in the Persian Empire for quite along time and adopted cuisines from different places all around the world but trying Jewish Tahdig and trying Iranian Tahdig is a very different experience.
Tahdig (ته دیگ) is served to guests at a meal. Tahdig (Persian: ته دیگ, tah "bottom" + dīg "pot") is a specialty of Iranian cuisine consisting of crisp rice taken from the bottom of the pot in which the rice (chelow) is cooked.[2] It is traditionally served to guests at a meal.[3] Ingredients commonly added to tahdig include yogurt and saffron, bread, potato, tomato, and fruits such as sour cherry. Variations of tahdig include placing thin vegetable slices at the bottom of the pot, so they crisp up instead of the rice, these vegetables include potato, carrots, and lettuce.[4] Iranians sometimes apply this cooking method to spaghetti as well, providing a hardened base.[5] It's like the soccarat of a paella w/o the paella...
To all the people confused about the inclusion of tahdig, it is an Iranian dish, which of course Iranian Jews also eat. I have no idea if it other Jewish people eat it, but all of my (non Iranian) Jewish friends had never heard of it before having at Iranian people's houses/ restaurants.
Facts try NYC street food - Uncle Gussy's, a knish from Katz & Dogz, Dirty Water hot dogs, breakfast carts (true NYC bagel), Milk Truck (classic grilled cheese) pretzels & last but not least, The Halal Guys= the best!
seriously, I'm Maghrebi and my family lived in Morocco until the interwar period when we came to the US. I've somewhat distanced myself from the Jewish community here because I just don't get the Jewish-American Yiddish Ashkenazi thing. My family is very religious and aren't really that active in the Jewish "cultural scene".
I was glad to see a variety of Jewish foods, not just the Ashkenazic (European) foods that I am used to (I am American Jewish). Can't believe they gave you straight up maror though, that's bitter stuff (at our Pesach meal we use fresh grated horseradish).
I'm not even Jewish and I'm sitting here like, "If latkes aren't in this I'll riot." We made those every year in elementary school for a cultural learning thing, I loved them!

They should have had them try the maror and charoset matzoh sandwich instead of just maror!

It's endearing and I thank You for brightening my day. I've had my interest in the language of my ancestors renewed.
wtf was that ending scene like slightly out of context or what
leather jacket man is back!!!! yay!
Maror is only made and eaten during Passover in a Seder. It is bitter herbs usually made with horseradish. If you went to a Jewish person's home for dinner you wouldn't find it there.
That guy on the left with the black shirt and beard cleans his plates in every video. Love him
"I'm praying for death at this stage." Aaaaannnd I have beer up my nose and all over the walls. Don't watch these while drinking. Ow....
"You just have to close every hole in your body" donal I love you lol
Who ever made the first gag sound eating the Maror made me laugh with a mouth full of yogurt.... I spent the next 5 mins cleaning it off the floor and out of my nose... LOL
He's back! Are ya having that?!
"...but that's cuz they have big rabbits over there." Over where?? We're everywhere! 😂
Not in Ireland Catholics and protestants only facts!
@@daveyhouston Google it! The Jewish population in Ireland might be small, but it is there. ☺️
ARE YA HAVIN THAT HAS RETURNED
I love this channel, everyone seems so genuine!
When Irish people settled in America they lived among many different other immigrant groups. The Jews had beef brisket and the Irish adopted this very affordable cut of meat and made corned beef.
No chulent? No Kugel? I'm disappointed.
Heimishe food FTW. Gefilte fish, yapchik, kishke, p'tcha...
Hilarious! This is my favorite one so far! Favorite comment: "D'ya know what's great to get rid of the taste? Have another bite!"
just love watching Donal licking the plates! And leather jacket guy's question at the end?! so random. love it!
Who is the long dark-haired guy? He's a riot!
As a Jew....I have been waiting for this! Now, try Russian food!
Russian food??
That guy with the long hair is my favorite
tahdig is Persian... literally means bottom of the pot in Persian. it's the cooked rice at the bottom of the pot and can also be crispy bread or potatoes at the bottom. probably brought to Israel by Persian jews
The matzah ball soup I have had was made with chicken broth not a bunch of oil. The rice thing comes from some where other than Israel and there is a sauce that's suppose to go with it
ARE YOU CRAZY TO GIVE THEM MARROR STRAIGHT? YOU EAT IT WITH BREAD OR SOMETHING ELSE!!!
Nope, you cannot eat it with Bread - it's UNLEAVEN bread that must be eaten at that time (that's why Matzo is used, and why leavened bread is supposed to be taken out of the Jewish household during Passover time)!
Horseradish without anything is a punishment no a meal it's a condiment not a dish ! It's for flavour not for a soup !
Irish People watch North Korean TV! 🇰🇵📺
So many great one- liners from this, too many to quote, so so good
Leather Jacket guy on the end screen was a particularly interesting addition
Potatoes and carrots with meat just makes people happy. Stew, meat pies, the lot.
Tahdig is deffintly not a jewish food. It is a Persian food. :/
Jews lived in the Persian Empire for quite along time and adopted cuisines from different places all around the world but trying Jewish Tahdig and trying Iranian Tahdig is a very different experience.
Quailbait yea.. i dont think there is one person in the world that doesnt like persian tahdig
Most food historians believe that it was invented by Jews in Persia and over time became part of Persian Cuisine.
People forget that the Jewish Diaspora brought and created many foods that overtime have become identified with the culture the Jews lived in. Fish and Chips were brought by Jews from the Netherlands to England but most people think of it as a british food. And that is one of hundreds of classic examples. A food that was originally Jewish but overtime became part of the culture the Jews lived in
Wtf tahdig isn't Jewish food; it's Persian. I should know, because my family is from Iran and we eat it all the time. You can also find it at any Persian restaurant you go to.
I'm not surprised that Jews would copy Persian food because in their history they praise the Persians so much about how they freed them from the Babylonians.
+Sailus there are Persian Jews
Persia did occupy much of the middle east including Israel thousands of years ago. I wouldn't be surprised if they influenced the cuisine of the area.

Jews come from all over the place, including Persia.
Best line: "Sounds like Mr. T's cousin"...lol!!! 😂😂😂
Tahdig (ته دیگ) is served to guests at a meal.
Tahdig (Persian: ته دیگ, tah "bottom" + dīg "pot") is a specialty of Iranian cuisine consisting of crisp rice taken from the bottom of the pot in which the rice (chelow) is cooked.[2] It is traditionally served to guests at a meal.[3] Ingredients commonly added to tahdig include yogurt and saffron, bread, potato, tomato, and fruits such as sour cherry.
Variations of tahdig include placing thin vegetable slices at the bottom of the pot, so they crisp up instead of the rice, these vegetables include potato, carrots, and lettuce.[4] Iranians sometimes apply this cooking method to spaghetti as well, providing a hardened base.[5]
It's like the soccarat of a paella w/o the paella...
how is tahdig jewish food?
My dad knew a guy from Iran that made the best tahdig. It was so awesome. Only time I ate it. Would love to have it again.
Marty Muravyav Tahdig is gods creation/gift to humans
+Andrew Faridian .....so true
Do you really believe that.....or? :D
It is a known fact the take thing and call them theirs, they stole whole lands why not dishes, JK
sorta, yeah pretty much
I love horseradish as much as the next Jewish chick, but no way am I going to DRINK it from a bowl!
I have no idea how I found this site BUT I FREAKING LOVE IT
To all the people confused about the inclusion of tahdig, it is an Iranian dish, which of course Iranian Jews also eat. I have no idea if it other Jewish people eat it, but all of my (non Iranian) Jewish friends had never heard of it before having at Iranian people's houses/ restaurants.
the guy in the black shirt with the beard I keep thinking that he is Charlie Day with a deeper voice and an accent
who else agrees?
he IS
Sean Collum I can't unsee it now!
Facts try NYC street food - Uncle Gussy's, a knish from Katz & Dogz, Dirty Water hot dogs, breakfast carts (true NYC bagel), Milk Truck (classic grilled cheese) pretzels & last but not least, The Halal Guys= the best!
Lo
Street food from any country would be very interesting :)
NIkkita P My youngest girl is named Augusta, nicknamed Gussie/Gus ...
It's not a nyc pretzel if it does not have mustard on it
"I'm praying for death at this stage." This cracked me up for some reason.
Good on Facts for portraying the large variety of foods Jews eat! Most "Someone tries Jewish food" only have Ashkenazi stuff.
seriously, I'm Maghrebi and my family lived in Morocco until the interwar period when we came to the US. I've somewhat distanced myself from the Jewish community here because I just don't get the Jewish-American Yiddish Ashkenazi thing. My family is very religious and aren't really that active in the Jewish "cultural scene".
They forgot gifilte fish.
Those poor souls don't need that devil fish 😂
You forgot how to spell it.
Like because of leather jacket guy 😂😂
I was glad to see a variety of Jewish foods, not just the Ashkenazic (European) foods that I am used to (I am American Jewish). Can't believe they gave you straight up maror though, that's bitter stuff (at our Pesach meal we use fresh grated horseradish).
Great to see Leather Jacket Guy back. Now we have Irish Anna Kendrick and Jean Jacket Girl brought in from the 80s by Irish David Tennant.
So they've got time travelers from the 80's on here now? Nice!
Did you see the redheaded girl from a previous video who kept getting called Barb in the comments because she looked like Barb from Stranger Things?
girl in red dress looked like Anna Kendrik though
LJG is back yaaass!!! 👏🏻😍
"It's like a Jewish woman gettin' married... it's fallin' to pieces!" THAT, DUDE!!!
Love brisket and veggies. In addition to the potatoes and carrot we toss in a quartered onion and cabbage. Love, love, love it.
