      Think there's definitely more people from southeast Europe in Germany than in the UK. We have a decent amount of Poles and some from the Baltic countries but relatively few from further south of that. Also historically there's less immigrants from there to the UK unlike immigrants from previous British Empire/commonwealth territories who have been coming to Britain for centuries and therefore have much more established food culture here, e.g. indian/pakistani foods.

      Yeah, same with me. I was baffled. I guess Cevapcici is a staple food for any german kid since the 80's. But this might be because former jugoslavia was one of the first big tourist destinations for germans and especially in the Ruhrvalley there where lots and lots of immigrant workers especially from that region starting from the 1950's.

    I didn't expect cevapcici to be here (ćevapčići if we wanna spell it correctly).
    Personally, I eat them with the bread it comes with (it's called somun, it's like a really voluminous pita bread), chopped up raw onions and kajmak (it's the product of skimming milk while it's heated). Some also add ajvar (name comes from caviar, it's made from roasted peppers, oil and other delights. It can be just spread on bread and it's delicious) or other similar condiments.
    Another thing I'll add is that the dish varies quite a bit, even between cities, so it's best if the restaurant lists ehere the tradition is from. Some are pretty much just beef and salt, others have garlic, onions, pepper or other ingredients.

    First of all I am so happy because you’ve chosen a dish from the Balkans since I am from Serbia and I have been following you guys for so long this makes my heart skip a beat. Second of all I think that maybe you should have tried Cevapi from another place since I don’t think the presentation was very accurate. Usually we serve it with a flat bread, kajmak and diced white onion. The mild red sauce that Ebbers tried is called Ajvar and the hotter version of it is called Ljutenica. I hope you will try some of our other dishes like Karadjordjeva schnitzel and Sarma and of course what is a Serbian meal without rakija. Best regards to you all❤️

    It does bring a smile on my face when I see food from Balkans since in from Bosnia. Čevapčići are more connected with bosnian citys Banja Luka, Travnik or Sarajevo and all of these are very different. Some use beef, some beef and lamb, and shape is different. Red hot sauce is Ajvar, usually made with red paprika, aubergine and tomatoes but you can also add garlic or yellow peppers.
    Baklava is a classic for Balkan region, although we usually just use walnuts and sugar sirup, while other regions use almond, pistachio or oreo I guess

    Vitello tonnato is on nearly every single antipasti menu in any average Italian restaurant in Germany. If you want the veal to be real veal and to be really thin, you do pay a pretty penny, but still.
    And you can buy it ready-made in Lidl during their Italian week.

    Hi guys,
    As a Swede foodie raised around the corner from the contemporary food capitol of Copenhagen, with a Serbian mother and living in the gastronomical mecca of France since a few years back - I can assure you that cevapcici is awesome!
    I grew up on this stuff during my first 6-7 summers - before the war started. So I had to learn how to make them myself as my mother didn't know how to make them as good as "back there".
    I pretty much perfected the craft over the years as I was trying to replicate the memories of past - and I do still to this day make a big batch for my father in-law every time I visit him (whom FYI is Romanian).
    There really are two main "secrets" when it comes to cevapcici greatness (from my pov ofc);
    1. One really needs to knead the mince thoroughly (in contrast to e.g. burgers, kebabs, meatballs etc.) with the spices and onion; too incorporate everything and create a sticky texture. The help making it more fluffy!
    2. Add bicarbonate; it's one of the most important parts to make them light, fluffy and delicious.
    By kneading the mince thoroughly you have helped the dough to be able to trap more gas/bubbles that the bicarbonate will release when heated - this will make for a less dense and more fluffy, airy and delicious cevapi.
    All n' all - this is a perfect option for the BBQ this summer!
    And a couple goes perfect into a hotdog bun (for us who have kids).
    Personally I prefer them in a Lepinja with Kajmak, raw onions and Ajvar - but they do go well with almost everything!
    Thanks for an awesome show!
    Cheers from France,
    by a demi-Serbian Swede

    @wizzzard999 Před 2 lety +6

    Wow, did not expect to see cevapi on here XD They really are eaten in any way, time or occasion here, and are sold in grills dotted around literally everywhere. When we fry them at home, we eat them either in a bun like a burger with all the fixins, or like a meat & potatoes type dish, or when we grill them outside, literally tear off a bit of any bread, pick one up with it and gobble it down. Though the most traditional way to eat it would be similar to how you had it, usually in a cut open flatbread called a Somun, which has a floury taste (in a good way) and is either on the dry side, or delightfully chewy. With it some of the must have pairings include, but are not limited to: raw onions, Ajvar (tangy red pepper sauce, sometimes spicy), Kajmak (dairy product, milk fat skimmed off the top of a cooked pot of milk, then salted and fermented from a few hours to a few days. I believe its somewhat similar to Devonshire cream), red pepper flakes etc.
    There are many many MANY great dishes and amazing foods from Serbia and the surrounding countries, and I would love to see more showcased on the channel. Lots of love

    Barry's last choice is very close (or possibly identical) to Imagawayaki. As Ben remarked bring reminded of something he had in Hokkaido - where the are commonly called Oyaki. It actually became popular in the late 1770's during the Edo period and has remained popular. Traditional filling for these dessert snacks is azuki bean paste and served freshly made - i.e. hot, but the are also good warm or at room temperature. I have enjoyed them filled with various custards, blueberry pie filling with cheesecake, and apple pie filling, as well as matcha mousse, regular azuki bean paste and azuki bean paste with chestnuts.

Plastic however is more energy efficient to produce and transport, but can also be recycled multiple times. Most plastic is a much better packaging material for food applications than alternatives as long as it is disposed of and recycled correctly.
