A lot of the time, the 'Farm to Table' or 'Field to Table' moniker is a sales pitch as much as it is a culinary approach, but Jesse Griffiths is the real deal. His knowledge of the plants and animals that he cooks with, from their environment/habitat, their lifecycle, their biology, comes through in his cooking, the books he writes, and when we get to see him in videos like this... Really, who else has ever sounded that passionate about a persimmon? Thanks for having him on! (Now I'm off to go find a disappointing Kolache in Phoenix and think up an excuse to get back to Austin soon.))

This feels nice to see! When I saw the title, I had a sneaky suspicion it's gonna be Czecho-Slovak (as someone who was born and still lives in Slovakia, and having had these regularly, this just feels good to see and to know Texas is keeping the mid-European tradition going from over the ocean).

My god! 😍 slovak baker here 👋 i love your recipes, actually bakes a lot of them at our bakery. When i saw “moravské koláče” here, it made my day. We usualy put “tvaroh” inside them. Tvaroh is kind of cow cheese typical for czech and slovakia, kind of like cottage cheese. Then we put the prunes and “mrvenička” on top. We bake them on sheet individually, so they do not touch. It takes much less time ☺️ love your videos and recipes ❤️ great work 💪

@_NickRyan_ 5 ай бұрын

Here in the panhandle of Texas we primarily eat savory kolaches filled with cheese and sausages, which are technically klobasneks. We usually eat them at breakfast because they’re served at donut shops. It’s great to find out the origins and history.

Wow, I had no idea koláče were a thing in the US! It's cool to see that a bit of Czecho-Slovak culinary tradition made it over there. I can reassure Jesse we won't be angry at him, his pronunciation is pretty good! It does sound a little odd to hear the word pluralized, since koláče is already plural (singular being koláč), but all in all I think Jesse did the pastry justice.

Hey guys, greetings from Prague, Czech republic. Nice to see how our history is part of the life in Texas. And don't worry about your Czech words Jesse ;-) Better word for "posypka" would be "drobenka", which kind of means something like "crumbles/crumbling", but your usage of the word was OK 🙂

@emilys9365 5 ай бұрын

So cool! Yes, Central Texas has a large Czech population and great food!

@73texmex 5 ай бұрын

Posypka is the common term in Texas. In Ukrainian that word would mean “to sprinkle, to rain, to pour”, which is literally what you do with it, to sprinkle it on top with your fingers. Does modern Czech have a word with that Slavik root?

@masterphoenixpraha 5 ай бұрын

As a native Minnesotan, I think high bush cranberries cannot be beat for a gorgeous jelly/jam that is AMAZEBALLS on a homemade biscuit or a toasted slice of homemade bread. Tart and tamarind-ish, with a distinctive smell. So yum! I'm sure it would be fantastic in kolaches, too.

2:18 i’m czech, koláč isn’t really a translation for cake, cake is “dort” and it’s just a normal cake like a birthday cake…koláč would be closer to “pie”, since we also call stuff like apple pie “jablečný koláč”. there’s usually a traditional filling holy trinity - poppy seeds, quark and povidla (plum jam). also, this is my first time hearing about klobásník, but apparently it’s a thing in some czech regions:o the more you know

I emigrated to Central Texas in 1999, and I lived there for 15 years before returning to the East Coast. I truly missed three foods from Texas that are not the same in my home state. I miss Texas Kolaches, from The Czech Stop on 105 N College Ave, I-35 (exit 353) in West, TX. I miss the Salt & Pepper Lobster from C.R. Surf and Turf on 601 E Whitestone Blvd #200 in Cedar Park, TX, and I miss authentic breakfast tacos son out of a Mexican mom's mini-van. I learned to make homemade Tortillas. I learned to make the Salt & Pepper Lobster, but I never could match the taste and texture, of the Kolaches from "The Czech Stop" in West, TX. Thank you for sharing this recipe! I will try this recipe in a couple of days, and hopefully, it will bring back those many memories of when I once drove from metropolitan Austin through West Texas and beyond.

Worked in Texas for six months and ate so much boudin and many kolaches while I was there. Funnily enough, the last time I had a kolache was in Zambia at a roadside cafe halfway between the capital Lusaka and Victoria Falls. I was shocked they had them but it turns out the owner was an expat from TX and then it all made sense!
