I'm surprised you haven't tried the dutch way of celebrating a festive dinner yet! It's called Gourmetten and most dutch people eat like this on Christmas. You have a little electric grill or little pans in the middle of the table and small pieces of meat, fish and vegetables, sauces, bread and salads and you just sit around the table all night cooking your own little meal all night long, so nobody is cooking dinner in the kitchen all day long. I really think you and the fam will love it! Lots of love from the Netherlands ❤️

That is dedication from Papa Booth - doing a barbecue in the dark and cold!

I think you would love it even more if you used olive oil instead of butter in the Bacalhau à Gomes de Sá. Here in Portugal, we mostly use olive oil to cook, it's a national treasure (although many mediterranean countries use it too ahahah)

Loved these different meals! As a Brit who moved to Aus 12 years ago it’s very strange to wrap your head around not having a proper roast but let me tell you, it suuuucks cooking a roast in temps in the high 30’s. Did it once and never will again. Over here it tends to be more of a brunch/lunch situation with lots of fresh seafood and salads plus a Christmas ham, then I personally do a mini roast for a late evening meal when it’s a bit more enjoyable to eat. It’s mango and stone fruit season so there’s always a mango salad and usually a big bowl of cherries. Plus pavlova for dessert passion fruit on top.

The thing about Australia is that there are so many nationalities so everyone's Christmas looks a little bit different and is inspired by different cuisines. If you wanted to do a 'traditional' Australian Christmas it would probably just look exactly like an English one. Also lol Christmas in Australia is one of the hottest times of the year hence barbeques and salads

I'd love to see you try a Caribbean Christmas. I'd be happy to send you some recipes. Love all the way from Trinidad and Tobago! 🇹🇹

Thanks for doing Australia! The fact that it could be between 30-40c weather during our Christmas is definitely a huge factor! My family always does traditional roast with salads thrown in. The English influence is strong!

yeah as an australian i can confirm that our christmas meals are super chill - just chuck seafood and meat on the barbie and have salads on the side. it can get pretty hot so we can't be bothered slaving away in the kitchen with the oven on hahaha

Cabbage wraps are amazing. 1) over season the meat as it boils out! 2)put the oil in and fry them until the cabbage browns before putting water 3) season the water with more than salt and pepper, I normally do it in veg stock. Please retry! It's amazing when it has move flavour

Grace is amazing at cooking! Watching others cook always makes me wonder if anyone else feels sick while cooking? Cooking takes away my appetite completely? Anyone else? I think it’s probably so weird

Hugs from Poland Grace !!! As a Polish I can say that my absolute Christmas fave is mushroom soup :) Lil fun fact is we actually don't have like 12 proper dishes but there is just a tradition of 12 things to eat on a table - sometimes we even count salt and pepper !

SALTED COD IS DIVINE!! Bacalhau á Brás Bacalhau com todos Bacalhau com natas Bacalhau á Gomes de Sá Bacalhau á Lagareiro Bacalhau com Broa Bacalhau Espiritual Bacalhau á Zé do Pipo The list is ENDLESS!!!

I LOVE this video idea! WHO ELSE CANNOT WAIT UNTIL CHRISTMAS? 🎄☃🍾

My boyfriend is Portuguese and every Christmas Eve we have Arroz de Pato it’s incredible 😍😍 it’s basically duck with rice and chorizo and a bunch of other stuff thrown in but it’s my favourite besides all of the deserts they make too! You should try making this dish though and let us know what you think about it!

New Zealand similar to Australia, for us its either a hot traditional Christmas roast with christmas pudding custard and cream or its cold ham salads, BBQ meats garlic bread and Pavalova or Trifle. Either is Gooooood.

Oh my God, I'm so happy that you have tried meals from Greece! And thank you for mentioning that meals differ from town to town 🇬🇷❤ have been following you for years, you are such a wonderful human being, greetings from Greece!

The cabbage rolls are very similar to the ones we make in Poland, not necrssarily for christmas but they're called 'Gołąbki' (translated to piegons) and its the same thing but with rice and meat/veggie filling, usually served with a tomato sauce!

yayyy Finland! 😍🇫🇮 I’m sooo glad you liked it! my personal faves are definitely sweetened potato casserole and carrot casserole, similar to what you did with swede! 😋 and actually, peas are a part of (at least my family’s) Christmas dinner, so your decision to add them to your dish was on point! ahh I’m already craving Christmas food… 🤤🤤

As an Australian I have never eaten any of those salads and I was super surprised to see them. We've definitely always done a bbq/meats with salads but in my family its usually potato salads, pasta salads and just like fresh garden style salads. Maybe some coleslaw. Those all still looked super tasty! It was cool to see how Christmas varies country to country and person to person

Codfish different ways is totally my Christmas with the family. So happy you liked it ❤️ hugs from Portugal

Thank you for doing Portugal 🇵🇹 💖💖💖 the only thing I’d say is that in Portugal in general we don’t use butter, we use olive oil it looks delicious still

Yesss! Something to watch as I’m cooking most the day today! Thank you Grace!

As a Greek myself, I can say you did amazing!! To be quite honest, I don't really like the cabbage rolls (lahanontolmas) too , but everybody seems to love them hahaha The chicken soup with augolemono is an absolute fave!! Loved the video

I love watching your "from around the world" videos, they're always so fun to watch!! I was not expecting to see you try dishes from my country (Poland) so I was pleasantly surprised (and I'm soo glad you liked it) ^^ I love celebrating Christmas here, lots of delicious food, all the family members gathering together, such a wonderful time of the year.

Loved this grace! Thank you so much for putting so much effort into all your videos :)

This is the happiest I've felt in a long time, thank you for the Christmas cheer Gracie ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thanks for being a bright spot in my day, I needed it today. Can’t wait for Vlogmas!

I absolutely adore these videos!!

I loved this! I really hope grace does vlogmas! The food the shopping the family fun ahhh all the good vibes xx

Love seeing Aussie christmas food! Christmas in Summer took my English dad some time to get used to, but soon enough everyone loves Christmas on the beach lol

These are some of my favorite videos that you do!! It's amazing to see different takes on Christmas!

I love these kinds of videos. Thank you that looked so delicious.

You've made a small mistake and mentioned Iceland in the title instead of Poland! As a Polish fan I was pleasently suprised when you unexpectedly started talking about Poland in the video. :P

Yay new video,cheered up my day!

Love these videos.

Aww yesss I'm here for ALL your Christmas content!! 💛✨

Grace Booth you are a legend. I was gonna watch last years this evening and was surprised with a new one!! These are my favourites you help make me feel so festive - big love

i was literally just watching last years edition for this and binging your old xmas content ahhh so exciting!!

Thank you much love xx

I'm so excited to see this.

just recently watched this video from last year! adored it 💕 excited for this one 💫

I loved this! Once went to Australia around Christmas time when I was a kid, it was mid-summer in the southern hemisphere and to say my little kid brain was confused is an understatement! To me, as a British person, Christmas means hot, hearty and rich foods and cold dark weather

Aussie here :) every Christmas we do cold cut meats ham off the bone, turkey and chicken and prawns. Then lots of salads fresh fruit.

The Portuguese recipe was so on point! You totally nailed it I’m really happy that you and your family enjoyed it so much!

i loved this!!!!

Greetings from Greece Grace !! 🇬🇷 That was a wonderful representation of our traditional dishes 💖👏 I loved the other dinners too !!!

As a polish person I was so so happy to see your recreation! My favorite thing from the dinner is always borscht with dumplings. I wait the whole year it!

Grace your videos are so wholesome.

Looooove how much research you do for these types of video. Content QUEEEEEN!♥️🙌🎄

Loved watching this. Thanks for sharing 👍 🎄☃️

Aww I loved that 💖 so much time & researching obviously went into it bless you xx fab video & v interesting

Excellent! I really enjoyed this video!

Love this vid grack! You seem so happy latley ❤️

Love that you included Finland❤️❤️

I love this video so much! so interesting to see the variety of different country's food, I love that you took time to research also

I so hope Grace does vlogmas I love the chaotic family ones when they're putting up the tree in their Xmas pyjamas!

these are my favourite videos love them so much!!!

I love love love these videos where you do food from around the world. And I also love seeing people in the comments really happy about you showcasing their countries and their food.

Yeyyyyy love your vids grace they brighten my day!

Love your jumper!

Your mom has the sweetest soft voice❤️❤️❤️

thanks for highlighting the differences in regional greek cooking, so nice to see some light shone on greek food!!:)

You should do this same idea but with christmas breakfasts! I love this video, thank you 😊

Love your vids ❤❤ always brighten my day also can't wait till Christmas

Oh my gosh I love this idea!! How different cultures celebrate Christmas and the holiday season thinking that Australia have salads and such as their Christmas “dinner” is so bizarre but of course it’s summer there so makes total sense. Love travelling the world via foods and traditions💓✈️

Second You are the best KZfaqr ever ❤ I really love your content 💕 💛

After binge watching graces xmas content from last year, i am SO happy for this years content!!! ❤️

Love your videos so much! 🎉

Love this video, it’s very interesting to see what Christmas dinners look like around the world; even from household to household world be interesting. I live in Australia and the whole family (mixed nationalities) comes together for a Christmas late lunch that includes ham, turkey (with cranberry sauce and gravy of course) pigs in a blanket, roasted potatoes, roasted veg and stuffing.

I can't wait to try these recipes

The cabbage rolls are almost the same as we use to eat here in Germany. We just fry them sharply before cooking it in the oven and the filling is minced meat, but mostly spiced like regular meat balls (pepper, salt, paprika, mustard, one egg). And the gravy is made out of the remaining in the pot and some tomato paste 🤗

omg I was half way through the vid and thought how cool it would be if you did australia and BOOM!!! yayayaya

How interesting! I might try the Greek pork roast. Thank you, Grace.

I love these videos! I'm from New Zealand and my family usually does roast turkey with stuffing, roast lamb, cranberry sauce, boiled new potatoes, peas, carrots, salads, and then pavlova, ambrosia, and cheesecake with fresh berries for dessert (we like a lot of options and then end up eating leftovers for days). However this year I'm having Christmas dinner with my partner's family for the first time so it will be interesting to see what their traditions are.

As an Aussie I have never had any of what you had but everyone Christmas is different some people love seafood some people are ham and pork or turkey with just veggies some are salads depending where you live , pavlova and trifle are always for dessert it’s fun to see how some spend there lunch/dinner

grace + christmas content? I AM LIVING FOR THISSSS!!!

So happy you enjoyed the portuguese dish ☺️ The only thing is, I’ve never seen anyone use melted butter, in my family we always use olive oil. Oh and we mix the egg with everything else or do a layer of it on top

this was so cool to see what people eat at Christmas. I'm from Australia and it's interesting even within my own family. We usually do one year with my mum's side where we do salads (Christmas isn't Christmas without a wombok salad in our house) and usually Christmas ham or a barbecue and the alternate year with my dad's side we have a sit down hot roast dinner. My family have always done lunch as the main meal as well and then we eat the leftovers for dinner if we're peckish

much love from Greece ❤️

Can't wait for the dessert one!!

Genuinely kind of amazed at how good your research is - I'm so used to people getting all sorts of info wrong about Portugal (understandable as we are a v small country all in all) but you were spot on!

I love that you included Greece because I feel like in these videos, people rarely do so! The chicken lemon soup is one of my favs in general because of how creamy it is. I've honestly havent heard of people making pork for Christmas but the cabbage dish seems different to what my family makes. A good tip is to actually boil the head of cabbage until its more tender so that it prevents it from breaking! It just seemed underseasoned to me, it can be in the same flavours as the chicken soup. And yes greek food has A LOT of lemon, I use lemon in everything!

I LOVED watching this, it really made my day I just became so EXCITED FOR CHRISTMAS!!! also I think you should try pastries/ sweet bakes from around the world.

Love these videos, please make more!!

Hi. I'm so happy you tried the polish dishes. At my house, we do the 'ryba po grecku' day before. So that the fish would get all the flavours from vegetables with spices. You did a great job :D I love your videos about Christmas dinners. Greetings from Poland ❤

Your dad is the best! 😊

Wooo Australia!! My family does a roast pork with salad for Christmas lunch, so best of both worlds. That Greek soup look delish!

Oh my you actually did Finland🥺💜 love from Finland💖💖

AHHH YES I WAS WAITING

I´m so glad you loved our Christmas dinner that we normally eat at "consoada" and that it was your favourite from the 5 countries (which I wasn´t expecting to be your favourite, but we really have one of the best gastronomies in the world). Also you could do a video eating only portuguese mealsfor 24 hours or just trying some of our food and snacks. Loved the video, much love from Portugal! :)

I loved it when you did this last year so know I'll love this! Interested to see what countries you do this time!!💞🎄

Hey, you should try the Serbian Christmas tradition, it's called Česnica, basically it's Christmas bread that gets baked with a clean coin inside of it, and on the Christmas morning the bread is equally divided among the family members and whoever gets the coin in their piece is belived to have the most luck in the following year

Would love to see a Christmas desserts from around the world. I think all of these meals looked delicious, but Greece's really spoke to me.

Love cabbage rolls!

Hey! You nailed the Polish fish, it looked amazing! You asked in the video about whether or not you eat the salad with the fish so thought I'd let you know what we do. The potato salad is usually ate with bread/ more of as a Christmas breakfast thing more than with the actual dinner itself (at least in my household). The fish would normally be served with some mashed potato or bread as well. Also I know they are a lot of hassle but you should defo try making pierogi at some point, they are the centrepiece of most polish xmas dinners

We are having a bbq this year for Christmas Dinner, this video made me excited for Christmas 🎄 😀

Looking forward to desserts episode on Thursday 🙌💯

Hug from Portugal!!!

you should definitely do 5 days of Christmas desserts from around the world. love u grace ur content makes me so happy :)))
