Sohla travels back to the Islamic Golden Age of 10th century Baghdad and recreates Kishkiyya, a 1,000-year-old hangover cure from one of the oldest Arabic cookbooks. #AncientRecipes
Recipe for Kishkiyya:
What You’ll need for the Kishkiyya:
• 3 lbs of lamb, bone in
• ½ lb of chopped onion
• ¼ lb fresh herbs (4 oz)
• 2 oz oregano, 2 oz dill
• Big handful of chickpeas
• 1 piece galangal
• ½ cup olive oil
• Water
• Chard
• Seasonal green vegetables
• 3 pieces/balls of kishk
• 1/2 pound of liquid/powder kishk
• Verjus
• 6 grams of cumin
• 6 grams of cassia (cinnamon)
• 1 gram cloves
• 1 gram spikenard
Directions:
1. Get a large pot. Add the lamb, 1/2 lb of chopped onion, oregano, dill chickpeas, galangal & olive oil. Add enough water to submerge the ingredients.
2. Bring heat to medium. Cook in the pot until the meat is almost done, about 4-6 hours.
3. Add in the green vegetables.
4. Separately, add all of the kishk in a bowl & pound it into powder. In a separate bowl, pour the verjus. Add the kishk powder to the verjus & dissolve. Then add it to the larger pot & stir to mix thoroughly.
5. Add the cumin, cinnamon & a handful of finely chopped onion to the pot. Do not stir here.
6. When the onion starts to fall apart, add the cloves & spikenard. Turn off the stove & let it simmer on the remaining heat.

The idea of "recreating a historical dish" isn't anything new on KZfaq at all, but all the "historians" tackling the concept have almost always been less than professional at the task, or are, well, comedians. I really enjoy how Sohla is so professional at what she does, she's extremely talented and makes the show way more interesting to watch. She isn't just fumbling around, she knows what she's doing, even working something so old and just passed through history.

The Syrian version of Kishk is made during summer by soaking burghul (internationally known as bulgur, in Turkish) in yogurt with plenty of salt, and letting it ferment at room temp. It is then mostly formed into balls and spread on cloth on sunny roofs to dry completely. The dried product (now kishk) is sometimes powdered for easier storage. During winter, it is usually cooked as soups or sautéed with onion in olive oil to be served as a side dish or used as a filling in fatayer or a topping in manakish.. Kishk-lamb stew with greens isn't a dish I am familiar with but it looks hearty

I love that people are recognizing Sohla as the national treasure she is but what don't see people talking about is how good the editing of these videos are?? The segment where they zoom in on Sohla when she tastes food, the funk, her word-o-meters, it's so funny and no one appreciates it enough

@RoyalRadiantJade 3 жыл бұрын

I enjoy the editing -sometimes it was borderline too much but I'm glad they toned it down from previous videos. I was like PLEASE don't keep cutting every time she says funk after the first time but they did it in a way where it was like a tease and not every single time so that was a relief.

@robarnold4235 3 жыл бұрын

I found the editing confusing. Why show shots of Sohla chopping spinach when the she's talking about oregano? Why show shots of the stew after the kishk was added when you haven't reached the kishk part of the recipe? I like the history here, and I love Sohla's videos, but presumably this is a cooking show and the editing needs to follow the sequence of the recipe.

I think ancient Thai food would be cool, although it might be hard to track down recipes. Even the historical food that most Thai people are aware of appeared in records and poetry that's like 500 years old max. The northeastern part of the country was an ancient civilizations and I'm sure you can find some info there, but it could be tough.

totally. and then they showed her adding kishk while she was reading the poem, but she hadn't talked about / gotten to that part of the recipe yet... and then they showed the SAME spinach chopping clip, which was from the first round of adding things in, towards the end with the chard/kale etc. this is like cooking video rule #1... show things in the order that they happen and as the instructor is talking about it.

The collagen extracted from the bones also help soothe the stomach. My Mexican dad ran a restaurant and his hangover cure was a lamb's head stew with chard. Mexicans generally like very spicy soups to cure hangovers. They say that the chili helps out to sweat the toxins

Hi Sohla. Look into ash e reshteh with kask. It is iraninan soup/ash and it is a modern version of this recipe. I dont know how detailed the original recipe was. But I think few things got lost in translation. First, it needs to be more watery. The purpose of bones with a bit of meat on them was to make broth, not to have a super meaty dish. In modern version, we just cook the other ingredients in broth. 2. All versions of kask are the same, its just different method of preserving it. In Iranian cooking, powder and balls are hydrated and smooth out like the fresh version before adding to any food. 3. We add either acid (sour grape juice or vinegar) or kask. But I personally enjoy both. Again, if you look into the 'ash with kask' recipe you may get an idea how it may have been. Thank you. I really enjoyed these recipes specially the ones from Iran and Middle east, that I can relate.
