Nobody wants to remember their connections with Portugal if they can

My ancestrals are portuguese and i can say thank you to make this video is a little difficult to find a channel who talk about portuguese cuisine

The Portuguese brought chillis from the Neotropics to both South Africa and Asia (particularly India) Chilli peppers are not native to Aftica - please brush up on your ethnobotany

Don't care Pad Thai slaps.

The Portugueses discovered Brazil, his name was actually Pedro Alvarez Cabral. Yes, Feijoada is believed to be a dish the slaves created inside the Senzala ( it is the name of the place they used to gather) Peri Peri is a Portuguese sauce and it is all over Portugal with the name of Piri Piri. Portuguese food is not underrated, thousands of people travel to Lisbon every year to experience their culinary. Both Brazil and Portugal speak Portuguese but there is a big difference in the sounds, Brazil speaks Portuguese only and not Spanish at all, no, not the same.

Onigiri from 7-Eleven in the morning and a hand roll on my way home from the local mom-n-pop shop in Waikiki kept my food bills low.

it's crazy how you can get onigiri at H-Mart my finances kinda incentivizes me to get them every other day, since they're only 2.12

ima foreigner living in Vienna and never been to Cafe Central. why ? because the queue is about 2 blocks long every time i pass by.. im not willing to wait 3 hours !!! to get a coffee no matter the history of the coffee house... how did you film the entrance with no queue ?it has to be at 6 in the morning or something.. and i work in the 1st district so idkn wtf is wrong with cafe central that has queues like that

In Arabic, orange is called as Alburtugal which is the same as Portugal in Arabic… because oranges came to the Middle East due to Portuguese trade in the region

Keiran Somen Japanese egg noodles and Adobo from Philippines (similar to vindaloo) or Portuguese inspired.

Portugal was everywere in 1500,dude. 🇵🇹💚❤️

The Southern African story is a bit incorrect and misleading. Please do better research next time. Peri Peri is actually Mozambican (where your story originates from) and was brought by Portuguese ex-colonials who fled to Apartheid South Africa from Mozambique when the country gained its independence in 1975. They brought with them the popular dish to cities like Durban and Johannesburg where the Nandos was founded in the 1980s. The Portuguese rounded the Cape but never settled or had any influence in the Cape as they were disinterested in settling in modern-day South Africa and established colonies in Mozambique, East Africa and Angola instead.

The Portuguese created Vindaloo as a form of mockery. The Beef Tallow was meant for Hindus, Garlic for Brahmins, Pork for Muslims, Vinegar for Protestants and one more item was there for the Jews to hate. It was meant as an offensive dish hence most Goan Hindus don't consume it but most Europeans do.

Excellent video!! Great visual images with a lot of information. Another Portuguese dish from Goa is "Beef Cafreal" which has its roots from Africa is what i was told.

Love this new trend of hipster onigiri! Love filling my onigiri with kimchi, small chunks of buldak sausage and cheese, cucumber and egg mayo, shrimp mayo, saucy chicken or just making it with fried kimchi rice!

A lot of British women can't cook due to generations of cultural neglect caused by serfdom.

OK. In Brazil there are so many portuguese influences that is imposible to list them. And sometimes that influences are so mixed with tradicional foods that is a crazy puzzle.

So few vegetables:,)

Matt you are absolutely right !

Portugal - Spain ordered on wish.

In the French West Indies, there are the famous cod accras (flour base) which were introduced by the Portuguese (originally made with potatoes) called cod fritters and personally I prefer a potato base!

cause they went around enslaving and terrorizing others?

4:10 In Kerala (southern state in India) where the Portuguese first landed we have something called 'mutta maala' which is almost identical to foi thong. I don't think it is found all over India except for Kerala due to the Portuguese. Actually Japan has a dish like this too and I was like we have something like that too. Thats when I went down the rabbit hole and realized almost all Portuguese colonies have a version of this dish.

Desinformation.

Very interesting! I had no idea Onigiri was such a huge staple

I know I’m late. But this was the most informative video I’ve seen on Onigiri. It’s one of my favorite Japanese foods, and boy, do I miss it!

6:49 where can you find this onigiri place? Address?

You looking at Galician food, from Galicia (Spain) which as a Kingdom contained the northern part of Portugal for centuries.

I grew up in Yokohama in the mid 1960’s. Salmon filled was my favorite!

Tuna and mayonnaise is tuna salad... not weird at all

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pJZ-bNuivbDIk6M.html&ab_channel=StoriesinHistory Chili peppers were introduced in Asia by portuguese traders; the influence is a lot more profound

11:20 I’m in trans

Not sure..just mcdonalds is everywhere

The portuguese influenced in music as well. In Hawai they have de ukelele that is a musical instrument from Portugal - the cavaquinho - in Malaca they algo have dancing groups of portuguese tradicional dances. They gave new worlds to the world

Growing up our local grocery store was Japanese owned and had a great selection of Asian food products. Onigiri was an affordable snack we could enjoy and my kids loved them too. Moving away from home and not being able to grab onigiri has been sad for us. Wish it was sold in convenient stores in the states widely like overseas. Street foods and convenient market foods are so much better outside of the states.

I'm kind of curious, is the evolution of the dish potentially inspired by how Americans have been creating sushiritos (essentially a sushi burrito... Basically just a giant burrito sized sushi roll - no tortilla is used, it's just the same shape) for 10+ years now (had my first sushi burrito in 2014 at University, but I think it had been a thing for several years before that). Like the sushi burritos are really big, so I kind of wonder if by chance they decided to make their smaller version of it (because American portion sizes can be ridiculous). Or, they could be completely independently created dishes, maybe even the reverse (though I talked to the owner and he said he was drinking with some of his friends at home when they came up with the idea of combining a burrito and sushi together... We live in SoCal so that's a very believable story given how much Mexican food is around here haha).

Holy shit, I seriously thought there was just a variant of rice balls that had jelly in it as a dessert because of that Pokemon clip... I never knew they just said that so Americans wouldn't be confused by the food.

I think people tend to seriously underestimate how vital the contributions of Portugal and Spain to world history and culture are. It's almost logical that Portuguese cuisine would leave an impressive mark all over the world, when you consider that they were pioneers in bringing previously unknown American crops to the old continent (the Spanish were rather limited in doing that due to Tordesillas), as well as interconnecting the disparete food traditions of Europe, Africa, Asia and America.

Interesting video, really, but I have to say this, and please don't take it personally, but before doing a video that wants to seem historically accurate, do your research. Pan is the spanish word for the thing, literally, and castella is a castillan dessert (castille as in the central and largest region of spain), to say something. If you reach to english written texts, you will see that they emphasize the portuguese achievements and hide those of the spanish, this is because of the conflicts at the time between England and Spain, Portugal was England's ally, and Spain was it's enemy. (The beggining of propaganda if you will, in spain we call it the "black legend"). A pity that it's still relevant so many years later.

I am so proud of being portuguese

One advise Dont go to Portugal if you are not white. White no problem, at all. And the portuguese have 70%of marroco blood.

I went to Korea last month and I swear half of my "meals" were salmon onigiri from 7/11. So good.

Most from the Portuguese been stolen from ottoman empire dishes and before that from Andalusia

Americanized Chinese food is kind of lame because it’s basically a one trick pony. Most of American Chinese food is cooked in a wok or deep fried so it all has that wok taste or fried food taste. The flavor profile is narrow and limited. Gets boring after a while. …..Authentic Chinese food is better because the selection is enormous. Many non Chinese people say they don’t like authentic Chinese food but they never delved into the enormous selections of the choices. Yes there are bad versions of authentic Chinese food but since the selection is so big it is much more interesting to explore

i’m Khon isan and i still can’t decide whether i’m Thai or Lao

technically it is on every continent. Fish and chips particularly the batter fried fish is a portuguese influence hence australian fish and chips are actually portguesse fried fish.

My grandpa worked in an aid agency in post war Korea. He talked about distributing "rice balls with a sour plum in the middle" to people when food was still scarce. Probably onigiri, considering the Japanese occupation had ended only 5 years prior!

Good content

Pao bhaji the famous vegetarian sandwich of Mumbai is a descendant of Portuguese bread pao. I’ll bet most Mumbakars don’t even Know that!
