See how i cooked this meal here: ua-cam.com/users/shortsBCxAu1x2btc Recipe credits: Based on recipes from @GrandbabyCakes for collard greens and fried okra, @blackpeoplesrecipes for catfish, @thepinkowlkitchen for sweet potatoes and Tiffanie Barrier @thedrinkingcoach for hibiscus tea.
Yes sis I love those facts not only did you cook it you learned the history behind the food
Get you some smoked turkey necks for the greens...you forgot dessert 😢...
Banana pudding, or a sock-it-to-me cake, or a peach cobbler, that's hot with vanilla ice-cream...ps I'MMA ADOPT YOUR PARENTS...THEY ARE THE SWEETEST... I'm writing in caps because I LOVE their energy...I LOVE you for these videos,😊
I swear I think your parents stayed at my Airbnb in Md a few years ago 😂
❤❤❤loved that you applied the history with the food. Thank you. You and your parents are awesome ❤❤❤❤
I just can't get over how cute your parents are 🤗 They're so raw and real! Truly huggable ☺️🤗☺️🤗
A Korean person saying of American soul food "This is the broth that makes you cry" when Asian broths are so very carefully and lovingly made? That's the highest compliment he could have possibly given. So much cross-culture respect here. Good LORD do I love to see it.
Awesome comment.
As a history teacher I have to say thank you for adding the history lesson to the meal, and as always I love how your parents enjoy food! Soul 2 Seoul all the way!👏🏾❤️😋
I greatly appreciate her adding the history lesson as well!
You are my Soul Sister sweet lady and you did your homework. GOD bless you honey. Btw, I live in the hood and we have two Korean carry outs, let me tell you. Somebody in both places are very clever and can cook ANYTHING!!!! As well as my Mom.
I agree ❤
That’s would be a good name for a restaurant 😊
I to Salute you for acknowledging our History and your parents are awesome your Dad sound affects are funny 😂😂😂
Shared history: Koreans also had a lot of historic hardship, so the cuisines share a lot. Kimchi became a staple because the traditional Korean diet lacked certain nutrients which fermentation provides. When dad is talking about how nourishing the collard green soup is, he's absolutely right. Kimchi and collard greens share many of the same essential nutrients, and thus play a similar role in each cuisine.
I love this comment🤗
It was not to take away from Koreans. they're eating Soul Food, that's why she explained it.
I was SO shocked when I noticed a lot of their cuisine reminded me of the food I was raised on down south. I found it interesting.
@@CleoPhoenixRTfor most dishes you can find a similar one in many different cultures, they just differ based off what’s available in their terrain
@@Jojo_jomo But those dishes are not considered main staples in those cultures. Thats what I mean. The only soul food (or thing close to) that I can get where I'm at is when I cook it. And there are people from all around the world here.
As a Black American, I’m really gratified to see this video. I’m very happy to see our traditional food and history being shared, accepted and enjoyed. Thank you✨
Same! I thanks for adding the history behind it, too! Blessings on your lovely family.
Thank you for sharing and being so articulate about the recipes and history.
As a white guy I love soul food.
The plight of the American black, outside acceptance and gratification
@contingencyibct3120you must excuse my Black brethren they are EXTREMELY misinformed and also uneducated hence why they call everyone with skin like them Black and this person most likely didn’t even come from American slavery they’re just talking because it’s common knowledge that Black culture is mostly derived from slavery whether it be how we identify (taking Black from the word Negroe) or the staple foods we eat (soul food).
Your Dad nearly has me in tears, he was so appreciative of the flavor we are often criticized for. Thank you for sharing this
THIS!!!!!
Pops got a NEW LOOK ON LIFE NOW 🤷🏽♂️😭
Sherry me too! I was near tears to see Dad’s unbridled expression of joy once he tasted the food.
Okay, so I wasn't alone watching this with tears in eyes.
Ppl often criticize the flavors? Like who?
I am half Black and Korean. Growing up in my household, Seoul and Soul always went hand in hand. I absolutely adore this video. Thank you so much for bringing both of my cultures together in one video that explains the beautiful albeit sad history of African American food experienced by your beautiful Korean family! 🥰
I think us folks who are from Korea should love southern food. After all, we are from the south too.
Seoul Food. That's be the best fusion cuisine ever
Seoul and Soul... UGH. Two cultures that pour generations worth of love into their cooking. It makes me so happy.
A Good Name for a Restaurant.
One of my favorite chefs is black and korean. Check out The Kimchi Chronicles 👍🏾
As an African American decendent of slaves from both sides of my family: I so love how you reserched the history and our recipes. And then let them add there own spin at the end. I really appreciate you doing more than just trying out food. But you taught them and produced admiration for history dishes that were used for our survival.
Also Im so happy fried okra was on the list. Its my favorite! God bless you and your family! 🫡
I mostly agree but My only "issue" is that the dishes were tried Individually....
Enslavement....Separated US from US.....And IMO....Our Food is an attempt to Reconnect US with US....
So, To ME.... Our food IS good Individually but IS Better when Eaten, Mixed Together!
Mix a Bite Of....Tart Greens, with Sweet Potatoes, with Corn Bread (Sorry points lost for it Not being HOT Water Corn bread) but the Mix is STILL.....The BEST, of Flavors....Your mouth will Experience!
We eat fried okra in Brazil!! We call it "Quiabo frito" but we usually don't use cornmeal to coat it, now I'm curious 👀
I love this family. The dad is totally on board for whatever is put in front of him. I never knew how much I could enjoy watching total strangers pig out, lol! 😂😂
Im black and korean. You Abuh-ji's reactions are EVERYTHING.... I appreciate how respectful you explained the history of soul food to your parents. Thank you🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼Brings tears to my eyes.
How are you Black and Korean?
@@AzureKite191 my mom's korean my dad was in the military stationed in korea... yeah not a common mix. But these are some of us out here😅😅😅
@@AzureKite191 are you slow??? Plenty of Koreans and other nationalities marry other people including people of color OBVIOUSLY.
@@AzureKite191 stupid azz question.
My good friends are Korean and Black, their dad was stationed in Korea as well.
The way she put that candied yam syrup on top of that cornbread made my ancestors happy. I love this. ❤️
I was waiting for her dad to dip the cornbread in the collard green juice😊
I was rooting for him to eat the collard greens and cornbread together
@@mrssaunders2😂😂😂 yep! He needed some hot sauce too!
I was just waiting for him to dip that cornbread in that potlikker.
@msakeeba you gotta be real country to know what "pot liquor" is 😂😂AL over here🎉🎉
Pops look like he's Fun to be around....He has a Positive Attitude about Mostly Everything ❤️😁
Just just like my dad "put some more meat on my plate" 😂😂😂 love it! Im glad they enjoyed our food!
Also as a black chef I am so proud of how AMAZING everything looks. You cooked everything so well and obviously with love. Thats where the soul in soul food comes from!
It almost reminds me of the cookout my family had a couple of months back they eat exactly like this. Dad lol
Thank you for treating my heritage with such respect ❤
I am sorry are you even black?
IKR? This is my first time seeing this channel. Can't wait to see what cultures she brings to the table.
Me too 1st time seeing this channel ❤New Subbie indeed! I was smiling and laughing and enjoying the meal virtually and the History was Awesome Thank You For Sharing God's Blessings To You And Your Family!❤❤❤😁😁👏🏾👏🏾
Your dad's reaction is so priceless. "This is the broth that makes you cry" will forever be embedded in my mind when I cook greens. Your family is awesome.
I was taken aback by that broth in the greens. We drain the juice on the greens. It did look like a soup. She gets an 'E' for effort bc greens are not easy to make.
@@CC-si3crBruh she made ham hock soup with greens in it. Perfectly valid. Also, kimchi and greens have similar nutrients. Dad is 100% correct. Greens are as nutritionally important to soul food as kimchi is to Koreans. And they're used the same. Kimchi can be a soup too.
@@KevinJDildonikwe do usually put hamhocks in our greens, or bacon, or salt pork, BUT, we usually drain the juice before serving.
❤best comment ever
Your Dad understands! Pot liquor is memory. Also, who drains greens? When did this become a thing?
I love how your parents mix their Korean favorites with whatever new food culture they encounter.
I'm an Afro-Colombian that grew up near the FL Keys in the 70's. Can't get any farther south than that in the US. I grew up on soul food and this looked amazing. My love for collard greens and ham hocks is deep rooted and watching your dad like them too was a joy. Kudos on the crunch on that catfish.
Omg your dad is eating it like an old school uncle! They suck the bones dry and slurp up all the “pot liquor”. That’s the juice and it is so darn good it could literally make u cry. U did an amazing job prepping everything! I know that it was good! Ur dad is hilarious!
Thank you!
@@crazykoreancookingseriously, I just found your channel, and you must be the best cook ever! 🎉
As a black American, I love this video and concept. The fathers reactions is priceless, very entertaining and informative. I love the history taught about soul food
Me too! I didn’t know the history behind soul food, but I love the teaching.
YOU WIN.... dang ALWAYS one comment "AS a.... I consider myself an expert" I just imagine all y'all talking to your own asses with this ONE comment on every GD post.
@@trishhamilton2049Being proud of one’s culture is a much more reasonable response than whatever you’re doing here 🤷🏽♀️
@@trishhamilton2049 Are you ok? Do you need help? They're happy their culture was treated with care and respect and embraced to openly and positively. Take the stick out of your ass.
@@trishhamilton2049lmfao who pissed in your Cheerios?
As a southern belle, I approve this dinner. Now Mom amd Dad,the only order of business is a nap. ❤😂
OMG! Your dad is hilarious! And your mom, her face tells exactly what she’s thinking about the food when she eats it. And…. Where did you learn your soul food cooking skills gurl? You tore it up! ❤😂
I love seeing your dad realizing how much he loves food from different cultures. Theyre so willing to try... I lve it!
Cornbread with chopsticks warms my heart. We appreciate you for sharing our culinary history in such a beautiful light! Pot liquor 😅
Thank you
When she said pot liquor I said yep she did her research lol. I still drink it til this day.
Me too, dip my cornbread in it.
i grew up on all of this being raised in Georgia, but I'm white. when my dad makes collards he calls the juice pot liquor and everything. It's interesting because you are saying its your culinary history, as in being a black american, I assume, since thats what the video says too, right? But I'm wondering.. isn't it just southern food? Most southern white people eat this stuff too, at least that's what I thought. My grandparents, all white, all made this stuff their entire lives too. It's just regional dishes that all people from there ate, whether black or white, and I'm pretty sure that white southerners created a lot of these dishes as well as black. i'm not mad lol I'm just wondering. It does feel a little weird hearing people refer to it as black american food all the time as though it's strictly by black people, whereas something like the blues or hip hop, is clearly music that originated with black people, for example, when its literally been the same dishes of my family for generations as well.
@@xapfe7139 I agree there are no borders and cultures cross all paths, I guess that's actually my point. White people have been eating collards for thousands of years in Europe, stewed with pork, all the way back to the Roman era, as collards originated in Eurasia. But if what you are saying is true, that collards became more common with white Americans after the civil war (though i've also found sources that say that white Americans were eating them in America for as long as they've been on the continent and that they ate greens and sure enough, even with slavery there was a melting pot of food traditions going on) its still a general southern food right? Along with the other dishes? There is a writer who came to the south and wrote in 1883 that there was no more common food among poor whites and blacks in the south, than collards. So I guess I can see it's obviously a black American dish because they were eating it but it's also very much a southern American dish. I guess you can understand it would be weird to hear people act like I'm appropriating eating the dishes my family made for generations, given I'm not black, when you hear it being a black American dish over and over, when you hear about cultural appropriation, etc.
I’m an older white lady but this is the type of food that I grew up eating and I still make it. Everything looked so delicious and your parents are so cute. I loved that he called the collard greens and pork the “OG.” He’s right. Best food around 😊
You only know about this food because it was passed down from my ancestors. Thank you
@@vernellmiller1176her ancestors had slaves that cooked for them and for generations they had our cooking so of course she grew up to love it. 😢😢😢
❤❤
@@vernellmiller1176lol you are a sad individual. Thank you
@@teatime635 i grew up eating this because i have many black neighbors. I am indigenous and my non indigenous relatives all immigrated within the past century. Not everyone is related to slavery, and even so, the sins of ancestors do not get passed down to descendants
Kudos to you for not only introducing soul food to your Korean family but also taking the time to educate how soul food came to be. Yes, it is delicious, but there is a sad history there too. I love that everyone used chop sticks. ❤
I am a black American and watching these folks enjoy soul food was very nice!!:)).. funny dad too!!😅..& thanks for the love of our food culture!!❤❤
The way dad attacked that ham hock (although we’re on smoked turkey now) and poured candied yams juice on the cornbread told me everything I need to know! Then he put it all together and made a sammich!🤣🤣 Yasss!!! This was delightful to watch. These parents would be welcome at the cookout.❤❤
My family still uses/eats ham hocks ❤
Definitely! Smoked Turkey for me! I don’t eat pork anymore but my mom still uses pork in hers.
You cannot replicate the taste of a hamhock. I don't eat them much, but I keep two in the freezer when I want that authentic taste I grew up with. Most things are ok in moderation.
@@raecoleman-wf2cp I still use them in my pinto beans!
@@YahQueenRoyal
Both are TOO worth it..
My cousin's friend makes THE BEST COLLARDS ever. Who am I kidding? All his cooking is bussin..
The way your dad keeps saying soul is so cute. I loved this so much.
As a southerner who loves both Korean food and soul food, it makes me so happy to see Korean people enjoying the soul food in the idea about cornbread and kimchi makes me have to try that now. Please tell your parents thank you for me🌎💚🌍💚🌏
From a Black/Afro-American who loves Korean food this was a fun switch to see and glad they enjoyed! And you did good preparing!
It was so heartwarming
Wow. I’m a Black southerner that comes from a long line of cooks in my family (as a matter of fact, the last slave in our family was a female cook). This soul/“southern food” looks really authentic! You did a fantastic job. 👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 And your father is the BEST 😊. I was very impressed that you also learned the history and knew the right terminology like “pot liquor.” 😊 Very good!
LOVE LOVE Dad’s fun-loving sound expressions, enthusiasm, and comments for the new tastes and flavors. Especially his newfound love for the collard greens and the meat in it. He sucked that bone dry and still went back for more😂😂 He’s a character😂💜
Your parents are the BEST taste testers, and they will use chopsticks no matter what they eat
❣️ Thank you for informing them on the origins of African American soul food. This added more value to this video 💯 ! Plus, I love how they always remix the food at the end the way they would eat it.
This was fire! A lot of Black families have stopped eating pork, so there’s an additional variation of Collard Greens with Turkey neck that’s really good. If y’all ever revisit it, I’d try that! And you fried the HELL out that catfish, babes.
Yes or turkey tail
Chile i who done stop eating pork lol lol
@@talklesslistenmore5578alot of black families done stopped eating pork since the truth done came out... Most likely you a geechie somewhere in the black belt of Alabama .....
Why did they stop eating pork? Is it due to cost or something else?
My granny makes the best of tail stew. It will have you licking the bowl.
I must say the way your mom describes a flavor as mysterious gets me every time. History was spot on but your dad getting down on that ham hock was the most soul food thing I’ve witnessed in a minute 😂😂😂😂
Lol for real.
I love how you gave them some black history to go along with the food. Thats more than what they are teaching our kids in school. Thank you. Your dad is a hoot!
You did your thing cookin that soul food. Looks just like my mom and grandma’s cooking. You go girl!
As a blk female i didn't know what to expect when i clicked on this video. Thank you for introducing our foods to your parents and thank you soooo❤ much for educating your family on our food origin, so glad they enjoyed it. Girl you makin me hungry for some collard greens and cornbread 😅😅😊
You’re a black woman! Not a black female. The term female is used for animals. We are human beings. And as a black woman myself, I just make sure I tell all black women the same thing. Bc a female isn’t taken seriously but a woman is. I know it’s something small to you but it makes a huge difference of how we’re perceived in the world. ❤
@@successmanifestation2769Get off your high horse that's like saying you don't drink water because water goes in the toilet lol. Female is biological sex, woman is gender. They're different things.
She forgot the Mac and cheese and potato salad with the collard greens… oh MY!! Try it!! 🔥🔥🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
@@Marcellat yes,the baked mac and cheese. YES
Did notice their nose were turned up until the words soul food were uttered; then they did a grab😅
Thank you so much for introducing your parents to my beautiful culture’s delicious food. I love how they mixed the different cuisines together. I am also a BIG fan of Korean cuisine. I am a new subbie and I think your parents are amazing. I truly enjoy your videos! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
“Touching Soul!” Your parents bring me so much joy!!! Thank you for sharing your work with the the world 🩷
Your parents are great. Your Dad's enthusiasm and gusto and Mom's measured approval are wonderful. Learning about others through food is so much fun. ❤
This has to be the best thing I’ve seen on the internet in a while! I love how you gave them some history and insight as to why we make/eat “soul food”. In addition to watching them genuinely enjoy the food, I also loved how they incorporated their own staples (kimchi, seaweed) with it as well. This was so simple but beautiful. Small acts like this are so impactful! 💕💕💕
Such good-looking parents! I laughed so much! Dad is a mix of Jackie Chan and George Jefferson! He is a good sport and so very funny and happy and light-hearted. Mum is the brave one trying the culinary adventurers first! I'm going to remember Dad and his positive energy forever
💜💜💜
The dad enjoyed the food so much. Food is the one thing that bring people together.❤
This really touched me. Thanks for teaching your parents black history and sharing your video with all of us. ❤
I enjoyed watching your parents enjoy there soul food!!😂
Dad really enjoyed the food , he wasn’t messing around. Loved, loved his enthusiasm.
I am so happy that you provided a back story. Thank you for that. People are seriously trying to “erase” the true history of the enslavement of black in America. These people did not get on a boat willingly to go learn a new skill ( looking at you FLorida law makers). So thank you. What you just did spoke volumes
Im Floridian and KNOW IM AN ISRAELITE and that is what is to be kept hidden. Too late DsantASS
Your black African ancestors sold you into slavery. Place blame at the beginning. No one should ever be sold into slavery, but it still continues till this day.
I actually didn't KNOW that bit of history, so they're not just teaching their parents but everyone else who was denied that education. Culinary history is so important because food and culture go hand in hand, and my respect for the art of soul food cooking has easily doubled now that I know it was born from such dire roots!
Thank you for so thoughtfully and respectfully celebrating US. ALL of US.
What a blessing. What a Healing.
Bowing deeply.
✨🕊✨
I know them greens were hitting! Thank you for appreciating and sharing our history. I love you guys!
your mom shaking her arms vigorously back and forth and dad jumping up at each new flavor is EXACTLY what soul food is for 😂😂 thats why its called soul food!! mysterious and delicious 😋
When your Dad said “The broth makes me cry!” 😢I loved watching ur parents enjoy the food you cook. But this one really made my heart (or soul 😊) happy! So glad your channel was in my recommendations ❤
Mom is very nice and you can tell she likes the food. Dad is a whole mood though lol he is just smashin' and loving every second of it.
You did so good making the soul food. Thank you for representing properly❤
I like the way she gave the history of soul food. Her parents are just lovely. Dad really enjoyed himself
Dad was getting down with those collard greens!!
He did a job on that bone 🍖.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
He really enjoyed everything, even the potlikker!
Your mom enjoyed the catfish the most. ( which I won't eat)
It was fun watching them both , especially your dad !
God bless you for cooking them a soul food taste feast !
❤️😋😇🙏
Thank you
As African American woman.....I approve this message & THANK YOU FOR SUCH A POSITIVE & INFORMATIONAL INTERPRETATION OF SOUL FOOD. YOUR MOM DIDN'T BRING OUT KIMCHI 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯💯❗‼️😍🥰
Your dad knows how to eat! LOL 🤣🤣🤣 You can see he really enjoyed it!
I don’t know why I love this video?? Is it how thankful your parents are? All your work to try a new experience? How cute your mom changes things up? Your dads sound effects 😂? ALL OF THE ABOVE!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I agree. It's her dad's eagerness & appreciation. The way he said "bussin" & "soul drink."😂 it's hilarious 😂
Your Dad is such a joy! My Dad used to drink the pot likker because he said that's here all the nutrients were! Thank you for including an accurate history lesson with the meal and the importance of this type of food to all Americans. A bitter history that must not be 4gotten by anyone.
That part reminds me of my mom who would always cook collard greens and take it to her potluck at her old job every holiday her co workers would eat up her greens and the juice. She always came home with two empty crock pots every time they have a party😂
When I make greens, I have to have cornbread for the pot likker!😋
I think we had the same father
I love how much they're enjoying the food! I feel like there's a lot of resonance between Korean and Afro diasporic food traditions. My grandfather told me a story about being newly stationed in Korea in the 1950s, and finding a small establishment where he sat down, and the proprietor asked what he wanted to eat. When he confessed he was feeling homesick for Memphis and really wanted some soul food--chitterlings to be exact--she didn't miss a beat and replied to the effect of "Sure I can make that for you, if you come back tomorrow." He assumed she was pulling his leg and had a laugh at her perfect dry wit. But she looked at him like "Did I stutter?" 🤨 and repeated that he should come back the next day and see.
I wasn't there, but I can imagine the eyeroll that came from 20-something him along with "Uhuh, sure." 😂 So he didnt have chitlins that day, but he really liked the food and returned the next day expecting they'd have a running joke going. Of course it wasn't the joke he was expecting. Not only did she have the chitlins, as some of us old heads say in the US south, she "put her foot in the pot" 😂 The food was fantastic, and more than 50 years later he still remembered it as one of the best and most heart-warming meals he'd ever had.
I love your respect for other cultures. I love how you research. It was so beautiful to watch your parents enjoy this food. The thing about food it's like a bridge. It can bring people together. Understanding the history of a dish helps you understand the people. And let me applaud you for your cooking. YOU DID DAMN GOOD
Thank you for introducing your parents to soul food & it’s history. Your dad is definitely invited to the cookout.
Eating crumbly cornbread with chopsticks, now that's some skills!! :D
My thoughts exactly! 😀
Bro, my mom is Nova Scotian black (the slaves that made it out of the underground railroad) and my dad is full South Korean. When I saw them eating cornbread with chopssticks, I almost shit myself 😂😂
@@HiImBeans😮
That’s what I’m saying, I love them lol ❤️
Their reaction is awesome! Very adventurous and respectful! Love your dad he really got the soul of the Spul foods!!🤣🤣
Your parents are so precious❤ your dad is adorable he kept dancing 😂😂I’m glad they loved it!
As a southerner i am so happy to see the genuine enjoyment and appreciation of our food. I also am amused at the impression of collards as a meat soup. I really love the cultural blending of using chopsticks, comparing it to Korean food, and mixing it Korean style with rice or adding kimchi. This was beautiful and so happy
The most endearing and equally enlightening aspect of this video is how your parents instinctively enjoyed the food the way many of my family members do (sippin' potliquor, combining foods to "get the good bite", and devouring the ham hock), as well as seeing the parallels between African American food, and Korean food! There is infinitely more that connects us, that separates us as a human family!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is funny because I LOVE Koren food. I have it for lunch today. Thanks for introducing your family of origin to some of our cultural dishes.
SOUUUUUL FOOOOD IS FOR THE SOUUUL!!! Them greens and catfish and okra looked soooo good!!! I’m hungry now😂😂😂
Thank you for graciously teaching your parents about our foods history. My dad is sick to his stomach at how much oxtails cost now. When our ancestors were given that as scraps and had to make the best of it. You food looks really delicious. Good job!
I told a friend of mine to stock up on oxtails because they are being gentrified. I grew up eating them because they were cheap.
ugh, the ever common phenomenon of white people gentrifying the food they used to look down on
Literally have not eaten them in a few years due to cost but I miss them 😭
I don’t eat oxtails but my Mom does and occasionally will get them at Costco. May be cheaper for your father there. ☺️
This made me laugh and tear up. They experienced exactly what soul food is supposed to make you feel. They are such beautiful souls. This was amazing
I really love your content ! Great food and great family ! Your parents bring a smile to my face and your dad is hilarious ! Peace and blessings to you and your family 🙏🏿 👏🏿
Thank you for sharing a little history on soul food and I strongly appreciate your mom and dad for enjoying our food!❤❤❤
Your parents reactions to Soul Food are fantastic. You can tell they love life and new experiences. Your mother is beautiful.
You came with the smoked ham hocks & the research!👏🏾 That catfish and corn bread looked especially yummy.
When I started watching Korean dramas and variety shows in the early 2000s, I was surprised to see that grilled pig intestines/gopchang and roasted pig trotter/jokbal being eaten. Back then, I thought eating chitterlings/chitlins and pigs feet were "only" African-American foods (neither of which I like). 😮 Learning about other countries and cultures cuisine is great, and a lot of times, yummy 😋
As I understand it, the history of Korea is somewhat similar to the AA experience. Korea, a small country, had been invaded by other countries one after another. They were subjugated by these countries rather than by one specific population like AA were by whites. But, they were starving and ate what they could which maybe is why the food is similar to AA food. At one time Koreans greeted each other with "Did you eat today?" Of course, modern Korea is very affluent now.
I'm from Hawaii, and my mother loved pickled pigs feet, and when she made Portuguese bean soup, she used smoked ham hocks.
@@margaretgordon7571 Interesting to hear about similar foods across regions.
@@sharonmartin5051 I have heard that phrase.
Baby Yas
Your Dad is beyond cute! He makes me laugh, which everyone needs these days. You all should have your own food show. 😂
I love this! It’s nice they’re open to trying. And it seems like Dad really likes it .
And his so expressive with the taste. Don’t blame him. Soul food is one of my favourites
I am from the South and I have to say you did a great job. Just a few things we cook a little different. However, I do think it depends on the area you are from and family traditions. Thank you for paying homage to Juneteenth and the history lesson behind the food ❤️. We ( my family) typically mash the cornbread up in the greens with the potlicker. Best eating in the world. I’m glad your family enjoyed it! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
ABSOLUTELY!
Right on! I wonder if she used mustard, collards, and turnip greens or just the collards....I like the trifecta the best!
@@mucho73cobbcobb95 she probably used the regular collards. But, trifecta 👍🏽
Yes, I'm fascinated by how different regions of the south cook so differently. Her greens looked right! But mixed greens for the win!!!!
All the food looked delicious 🤤
They are adorable. I love how enthusiastic they were and already had soul-Korean fusion going on ❤
Loved when they started fusing! Def want to try w kimichi for myself 😋
I have to keep watching because I don’t recall her father disliking anything 😂😂😂😂😂. Watching them eat different dishes is hilarious and delightful ❤
Your parents are so precious ❤ I know I've said this before, but it warms my heart to see them being real. Enjoy them. I miss my parents.
Your dad had me laughing and loving his enjoyment.
Me too it was so refreshing 😂❤👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Who doesn't love good food it brings everyone together that's Love❤❤❤
I appreciate you taking the time to explain our history to them. I'm glad they enjoyed
Love this as a black American! & how you even knew the backstory to our food very good your dad is so awesome! Wish you would’ve made them some fried chicken & Mac & cheese as well
They are too cute! I’m so glad they enjoyed our traditional food. 💖
Thank you for sharing history from my culture and not just cooking the dishes. It means a lot.
You did our food Justice! Your beautiful family seemed so appreciative. This was beautiful! We need t-shirts that say “BUSSIN SOULLLLLL” with your dads hands in the air! 😂😂😂
I absolutely love that you made this for them and that they enjoyed the meal so much. The respectful history and explanation were much appreciated as well. Thank you. ❤️
I love your dad. Always happy to explore and express appreciation. What a decent guy. ❤
1. These vids are SO enjoyable to watch! Especially dad’s reactions. His love for all kinds of food speaks to my soul😂.
2. As a Black American those dishes look like they were cooked to perfection. You did us justice with the potliquor!
3. The history lesson behind the meal touched my heart beyond words. Thank you for the dignity with which you portrayed a very central part of our unique American history❤
Collards greens are my fav. I add extra vinegar and hot sauce🥹 everything looks bussinnn forreal
I love vinegar , Frank's hot sauce , and tomato slices on my greens. My hubby makes a mean cornbread and pig feet with lima beans
There's something similar which can be found in my country too....Chinese mustard greens are cooked usually with leftover parts of roast chicken, duck or pork (sometimes a combination of 2 or all 3 together lol), throw in some dried chilli for a little spice, throw in some tamarind slices and we get this pot of sour, spicy, savory goodness which will taste even better if left overnight 😄
You did an absolutely outstanding job on this meal! 🥘 Very well done! Thanks for sharing your family meal moments.

This was a delight to watch. Seeing the way your mom and dad enjoyed the food was beautiful. I was stationed in Korea. I love Korean food. On a side note, Kimchee is EXCELLENT with collard greens! Thank you for sharing our history. Blessings to you all. ❤
