      I'm from Andalusia and I felt a little cultural shock in this video. It's the first time I hear about the porrón and the sword xd. And I don't know anyone who has a paella, we make our own type of rice 😅 As for the "espadrilles", we call them "alpargatas", although they're not common here in Seville. But good video :) I would have maybe added the typical biscuits can in which we have our sewing kit, although I think that's also common in some other countries 🤔 Or a "botijo", which is called "piporro" in Huelva 😁 Edit: oh, an "abanico", too, as others are saying.

    Little Yoly is so cute in her Flamenco dress!!! I was not familiar with a "porron" before, but I had seen in my youth a "bota" bag, which is a similar concept of lifting this leather bag filled with wine slightly above your mouth like the porron, and and pouring the wine from a nozzle into your mouth. I have always associated the "bota bag" with Spain. Your Mediterranean dream sequence kept getting more hilarious as it went on. Thanks for another fun and educational video. You guys never disappoint.

    What I always loved as a kid is that some people in Spain have Coke and Fanta in a bottle at home. Nothing beats drinking a cold coke from a traditional bottle. And Fanta Naranja in Spain is the best Fanta in the world.
    In the old days cologne water was also a tradition as well. Walking on the streets you could smell the lavendel. This seems to have gone down with time, the same as the Lacoste polo shirt which was standard attire for men.

    En Argentina, las alpargatas son una prenda clásica (hay una fábrica llamada así, creada por un vasco y un escosés en 1883). Además tenemos ,"paletas" de playa, algo más largas y de madera y fregona, a la que llamamos lampazo. Mis bisabuelos eran españoles e Italianos y en la década del 80 estaba de moda tomar, en algún bodegón (bar) o fiesta, el vino en bota de cuero. Saludos 🖐🏻

    And a "Paella" or "paellera" (for non valencian speakers). The only way to get the perfect crispy rice.

    My mother made epic cinnamon rolls. Epic. She taught all the ladies in the neighborhood how to make bread and fry bread as well as cinnamon rolls. For traditional cinnamon rolls, she made a bowl of a cinnamon and sugar mix and softened butter. She rolled out the dough about 8mm thick, making the dough as square as possible. She coated the dough with about 1/4 lb of soft butter and then sprinkled the cinnamon sugar mix over the butter in a thick layer. If she was adding nuts, she would chop them and sprinkle them over the cinnamon sugar mix. Then roll the dough and cut the slices an inch thick using dental floss. She put each slice on the pan and then covered the pan and let the rolls rise, then baked them in the oven. She spread butter cream icing over the top when they were still slightly warm. If she had cream cheese, she substituted 8oz for the butter in the icing and did everything else the same. When oranges were in season, we had orange rolls. I am getting hungry! She would roll out the dough, mix oj with the butter which she spread across the dough, cinnamon sugar mix over everything as before and grated clean orange peel over the top. If you want nuts, black walnuts are best followed by shivered almonds. She would roll, slice, pan and rise as before. Then when making the icing she would substitute orange juice for the milk or cream in the icing as well as about1/4 cup of grated orange peel in the icing and spread over the rolls. So very good. The bottom of the rolls will get hard (though tasty and caramelized) if you put in too much sugar, though they don't really harden the first day. I noticed the lady on skill share putting a thin layer of cinnamon so thought I would share an alternate tasty method. I hope you didn't mind. If someone decides to adopt her method, call them Sally's rolls and I won't mind.

    Hola guys. Just discovered your channel. As a Spanish lover your video's are fantastic. My father has lived on the Costa Blanca for 15 years and I was lucky enough to live for a few years on Lanzarote. So miss the food, especially the menu of the day!

    This video is awesome! You two are so cute and funny together, and I laughed a lot. Especially when James on the beach added another "must have." I've spent a lot of time in smaller towns in Spain, and one thing I noticed in lots of houses is the curtains over the front doors. Being from the US, I'd never seen this before, and I thought they didn't actually have a door!

    • @irinam8709

      I live in the SW France and the door curtain is a thing here too. I think maybe it’s purpose is to protect home from outdoor heat or cold.

    The whole who invented what thing is interesting. I claimed a British invention online a couple of years ago and had three competing theories in irritated responses. I think that sometimes an idea has it's time and things appear in different places.

    In my home we frequently have a jamon on the kitchen counter, maybe because my dad was from Sevilla and he loved it so much so it’s a family tradition.

    I just came across your videos. I'm from Colombia in South America but have lived in New Zealand for over 40 years so I can relate to you both. As a young girl I remember playing with my mother's " mantilla (veil/ shawl), peineta(spanish veil comb) "and the " castañuelas" (castanets) I think there was also a pair of flamenco shoes.
    The " alpargatas" very popular en Colombia mostly with country working peasants. Also went a couple of times to " corrida de toros" (bull fights) 😢🥺😟😭 and seeing the leather drinking pouch "bota" to drink manzanilla , a type of wine.
    In Colombia every house hold would also have a "fregona "although we call them "trapeador"( mop) . I guess there is lots of things I can associate with Spain,obviously very strong influence from the spanish culture.
    Also I can notice Yoli's slight kiwi accent and some of the expressions and words are definitely very kiwi!
    Well done!😊

    My parents are both Spanish (I'm Australian) and every household and restaurants and bars I went to in Spain had these thick Ceramic mugs. Many were always idolizing their football club teams but there was always one in each place and it could be a region or even another hobby. Even my parents who are now in Australia have plenty of them at home.

    I stumbled upon your videos while wanting to introduce my partner to Spain. I'm supposedly Spanish (the only nationality I have - I'm genetically Spanish but have never lived in, or wasn't born in Spain) so I find your videos interesting as I always learn things that I feel I should know if I want to call myself spanish.
    We had a "paellera" as kids,in Romania and Namibia, countries where you couldn't go to a restaurant to order a paella, and that is what we called it (obviously my parents are not "valencianos").
    Sadly to say the only item I have now is the fregona :)(which I buy when I go visit my parents in Spain, and I bring with me all the way to Cape Town, as mops here are atrocious).
    Jeff, I totally get your point of view towards Spain because I feel the same way - when I go to Spain I don't feel Spanish, so I identify with you.
    Yoli, I totally get your point of view as well because there is obviously a lot of Spanish in me (I was also given a pair of red castañuelas and a Spanish nun, in Senegal/Dakar, made me a red flamenco dress, I remember fondly having alpargatas de esparto as a kid. I remember going to Burgos as a kid and seeing my uncles and grandfather drink wine from a Porrón.
    Thank you for your very entertaining, funny and informative videos. No me pierdo uno!
    Regarding some of the negative critics that you get about your videos...firstly, you can never please everybody; specially in today's age when everyone feels entitled to have their opinion be heard. Secondly, I feel this is aimed at foreigners who want to get to know about Spain's culture. It is not aimed at Spaniards who live in Spain, as they would need to understand other cultures' point of view to get the videosvideos.
    Thanks again for your hard work and keep it up!
    Cheers!

    Hi! Most items are quite common certainly, but in many parts of Spain some items would be really uncommon, like the sword, the flamenco dress and the porrón. Other items that is also quite difficult to find when you move abroad: the metal recipient to reuse cooking oil, a good can opener (for oval fish cans, not only round ones) a good navaja. And also some wall decorations, changing in each region. Thanks for the video!

    La familia de mi padre se le conocía como cal espardenyer. Así que supongo que hacían espardeñas o quien sabe porque. I never had a flamenco dress or this flamenco accessories pack. My family have this “tabla de cortar jamón”. It’s very difficult to cut a jam without it. In Catalonia we know how to drink with porrón.

  • @rubenpm2098
    @rubenpm2098 Před 11 měsíci

    Hi guys, 2 years later....I think some of the items in the pack would change according to the region. Maybe two other traditional household items missing would be the yellow "mortero" (pestle and mortar) to make "all i oli" (Catalan for garlic and oil) sauce by hand. YThis is very typical in Valencia, for example: as a child, I helped my grandma make "all i oli" many times, me pouring the oil and she stirring the pestle. The other one (more national) would be the classic Italian coffee maker with the two sections that are screwed together, no doubt. By the way, the paella Vicente cooked looked quite the "real" one (maybe too much rosemary...). Greetings from a Valencian living in Madrid.
