  • Initially, I thought this was a Russian ration because Katie (thanks, Katie 🤗) who sent it to me said it was, but when I attempted to translate it from Russian using the Google Translate app it didn't work...but Ukrainian did. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Slavic language experts, help! 🙏🏻 New videos every Thursday and Saturday 8 pm EST.

    HI Emmy!
    I have an old hard-time family recipe that is extremely simple if you want it for that series!
    It's name is "Agolette" (Ah-johl-et) The recipe here is for one.
    You need pieces of Stale Italian Bread or French Baugette (all my great-grandparents were able to afford at the time)
    One half of a yellow onion
    One egg
    Preparation is simple:
    Boil a pot of water with chopped up onion. salt is optional. Once at a rapid boil, Crack your egg into the water. Wait until the egg is poached to a soft or medium texture. Turn off the water. Pour Take out the egg, and place on top of the stale bread. using a soup ladle, pour the onions on top of the stale bread, softening it and creating a tasty onion broth. you can put black pepper on top to taste.

      S-0 Is your family Northern Italian? My grandparents were from Tuscany and Marche and we make something very similar. The bianco (white) version as you do (sometimes with a little grated Parmesan cheese) and another version with leftover tomato sauce diluted with water. The stale bread is added and allowed to soften up and sop up the sauce. Sometimes spinach or swiss chard is added with some grated cheese. We call this pane cott' -Cooked bread.

      S-0 maybe Emmy could make an entire episode with recipes that use stale bread? There's a lot. I'm Dutch and my family used to make bread porridge using stale bread, sugar and milk (you can add anise powder/seed if you have it).
      Edit: I have a recipe book from my region of the Netherlands with three different porridge recipes that I could easily translate (one uses normal bread, and two others call for more specific bread that might not be easy to find in the US)

    The outer packaging may have been in Ukrainian dialect, but the contents were almost certainly in formal Russian. I suspect that ration was meant for some of their southern brigades. The puree is known as "vegetable caviar" and can be used as you did or made into a mug of soup. The much prized apple butter is often just squeezed directly into the mouth. The kasha starch was probably pearl barley. Finally, as you learned, the fuel tabs have a very unpleasant smell when they burn. Great job, Our Lovely!

      Hi, I speak both Ukrainian and Russian. They use different Cyrillic alphabets. By that fact its obvious that the whole thing is in Russian. I don't really know what you mean by "Ukrainian dialect," Ukrainian is a different langauge (acutally much more simlar to Polish than Russian). Finally, Google isn't great at translating either Russian or Ukrainian into English, which is why it probably thought the ration was in Ukrainian.

      I second this tip. I speak neither Ukrainian nor Russian, but I do have working knowledge of the Cyrillic alphabet. Ukrainian has a letter that looks like the Latin I, and the usual Russian equivalent looks like a backwards Latin N. Both letters make the sound of the I in "machine." Ukrainian uses the backwards N character for a sound that Russian represents with a letter that looks like a lowercase b joined to a lowercase l.

    @Your.Uncle.AngMoh 6 років тому +91

    Quick Russian lesson for food:
    *сахар белый (sakhar belii) is sugar, white
    *перец (perets) is pepper. болгарский перец (bolgarskii perets) is literally Bulgarian pepper, which is the Russian name for capsicum or bell pepper
    *соль (sol) is salt.
    *сыр (seer) is cheese
    *яблоко (yabloko) is apples, but nouns change form for case and so on in Russian
    *икра (ikra) is literally caviar, but refers to pureéd vegetables like zucchini/courgette
    *каша рисовая (kasha risovya) rice porridge. Also made with buckwheat, wheat, or pearl barley. Fatty meat with the grain and lightly spiced.
    *говядина тушеная (govyadina tusheniya) is beef stew. Colloquially called "tushenka". первый класс (pervii klass) means first class/premium quality
    *рагу (ragu) is ragou
    *паштет печеночный (pashtyet pechtenochnii) is paté made from liver. In all likelihood, this will be pork with other bits of the pig like heart and brains as well as the liver.
    p.s. Your Uncle Gweilo can't speak Russian. Just picked up stuff from watching dozens of Russian language cooking videos.

You can't find them anymore (at least online). Just a request, and hoping you might notice it this time and consider trying it out. Thanks so much! (it contained a thick meaty sauce with spaghetti pasta in a normal pot pie crust, so good!)

As to that baby food one, it said eggplant caviar, I don't know if it's popular dish in the US, it has nothing to do with real caviar, but when you prepare it properly (it shouldn't be that baby-food-ish) it looks a bit like a caviar, because of eggplant's seeds. That cheese was cheese indeed, processed cheese. Stew was beef stew and the last one of the heated meals was ragout, and pate was with butter. Anyway, strange Google Translate didn't translated it from Russian, since it's most certainly Russian. Great video. :D

    Hahaha my mom used to put those wet naps in our lunches as a kid and they were always either lemon scented or fruity scented and I freaking loved them cuz they really do smell so good. The only thing I hated was, after wiping my hands off with them, my hands and therefore my food would taste like the chemicals in the wet naps. But Emmy, you're right, wet naps rule!!!!! And so do you Emmy, you freaking rock girl and I love your videos and your channel. Love your positive attitude cuz it's extremely contagious. Watching your videos always puts me in a better mood so from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

      Alessandra Bozzelli First of all, that's a really awful thing to ask to someone who's clearly an awesome momma taking care of her kids. Second, there are many reasons why that could happen. Accidental pregnancies, along with not believing in or wanting abortion. Sometimes, people just have patches of hard times. Lost jobs, unemployment, the loss of a person who is contributing to the family's income.
      There are a ton of reasons someone may have children and money problems. But those reasons are none of your business.

    Being raised by a Filipino mom, a great treat she would make for me was this avocado dessert.

    hey emmy i love your videos and have been watching for a while! i have a suggestion: I would love if you could put in a picture or small clip of the item or section of one of your own/other people's videos whenever you refer to them e.g. when something resembles something you've seen before. I get curious and sometimes I do go outwardly look for it or have already watched the clip so vaguely remember it but it helps if its all in once place. Thanks for these relaxing videos ! Because of you I always say "Itadakimasu" before I eat lol its become a habit

      @tokyosmash 6 років тому +5

      twocvbloke you aren’t wrong, my man. After about a day of eating US MRE’s they all start to taste the same. Doing joint stuff with partner nations has really started to make me realize that Natick just wants us to eat dog food.

    • @twocvbloke
      @twocvbloke 6 років тому +5

      I've tried 4 different US MREs so far (two of which I showed on my Rotten Shed channel), and you're right, they tend to taste "the same", and not good quality. Even British ration packs are filling up with the same US MRE stuff, and that is just awful!! Compare that to Lithuanian MREs though (the only other ration I've tried), it's night and day, the Lithuanian ones taste like food, still looks like dog food, but the flavours are so much nicer!!

    I wonder if the tomato 'stuff' was a soup base? It resembled concentrated tinned tomato soup and meant to be diluted a touch and drank/eaten.
    Further on in the video you probably could have combined the potato tin stuff for a veg soup.
    Fascinating

    Hi Miss Emmy! What you have here is a Russian ration known as an "IRP" also known as a "ИРП" "Индивидуальный рацион питания" meaning essentially a individual food ration. This is a 24 hour ration. Other Russian "MREs" that you see are "ОРП" or "одноразовые рацион питания" which is an "ORP" and is translated loosely as a one-time use ration, they are a one meal ration as opposed to the 24-hour ration. Hope this helps.

      Sometimes it can be tricky because for example Canadian rations have a lot of "made in US" packaging or foods.
      So since Belarus and Ukraine neighbor Russia -- that is always a possibility.
      But yeah it is for sure Russian

    • @angelofreak7
      @angelofreak7 6 років тому

      ReptileMan 0912 very true. Also a lot of Slavic languages are very similar but also very different. So can make for a very confusing translation experience. Is one of the reasons why I cross reference Google Translate with some of the textbooks I have. Also the word Federation was mentioned which makes me think it was Russian however I don't know the date the MRE was made maybe it was manufactured during the time of the CIS? Who knows?

    • @angelofreak7
      @angelofreak7 6 років тому

      ReptileMan 0912 also please correct me if I'm wrong but it seems from the research I got Ukraine was part of the Confederacy of independent states at one time so anything with this MRE is a possibility.
