Joy of Origins
Cyprus
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 11 มี.ค. 2021
Ancient wisdom is not only about historical insights. It's about keeping alive the soul of our origins.
In this busy world, the simple life of bygone days taught me how to slow down, reconnect with the land and the seasons, and lead a more sustainable and self-sufficient life.
Collecting the memories that traditional food and crafts hold, I recreate stories about my Cypriot culture and customs so as not to be forgotten.
You're welcome to join me on this journey of life in village and experience the ancient and traditional Cypriot spirit. Understanding the seasonality of fresh produce, discovering wild edibles, and learning how to preserve and store them throughout the year.

#3 Cypriot Grandmothers Stories | Yogurt the traditional way
This is Meyrem, a member of the Turkish Cypriot community on the island. Today, she will show us how to make yogurt from start to finish. She will also explain how to prepare a traditional dish with 'Molohia.' I'm excited to share her life story with you!
Joy of Origins was born out of the necessity to preserve the stories and culture of Cyprus. My grandmas' narratives were foundational in creating the channel's videos. This limited series aims to portray their lives through their own words. The goal was to find Cypriot grandmothers from the five ethnicities of the island, who retain “good” memories of Cyprus before the war. I carefully interviewed them, and they graciously shared their stories and cooking wisdom. My hope is to keep these stories alive for generations to come.

Can i have the juice recipe please i didn’t get it from the video 🥰
Hey there. You just add some water and the fruit. You can adjust the amounts to your liking to make it denser or softer. ☺️ at the end, if you want, you can add some extra splash of lemon juice.
Αν δεν έχουμε τσίπα τι μπορούμε να βάλουμε?
Υπάρχει στην υπεραγορά έτοιμη τσίπα. Αν δεν μπορείς να την προμηθευτείς τότε μπορείς να βάλεις λίγο ελαιόλαδο. Κάποιοι βάζουν και φρέσκα κρέμα αλλά εγώ προσωπικά δεν το έχω δοκιμάσει. 😊
Mmmmm yiammi!!❤❤
My Dad us from Tremithousa...is this a local village recipe?
Yes, it is! It used to be a popular thing to bake dating back at least in the 1800s. Now you can't really find it in bakeries but the seeds are available in stores when in season.
Κοπέλα μου τα συγχαρητήρια μου . Ω όμορφες αναμνήσεις για εμάς που ζήσαμε έστω και για λίγο τα χρόνια εκείνα . Η γιαγιά αχ η καλή γιαγιούλα πάντα με χαμόγελο και μια καλή κουβέντα
Ευχαριστώ πολύ για τα καλά σας λόγια. 🙏🏻 Μακάρι αυτές οι αναμνήσεις σας να μην χαθούν και να μπορούν και οι καινούργιες γεννιές να μάθουν από την σοφία του παρελθόντος. 🌞
This is such a well made video! This is telling a story in an amazing traditional Cypriot way. I just love it! It takes a lot of talent to make such a video! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for your kind words! It makes me really happy when people appreciate my work and effort on preserving the Cypriot culture and traditions! Happy you liked it! 🌞😊
@@JoyofOrigins Not only that I like it, I LOVE it!
so soothing! was not even aware of some of the things despite growing up in Cyprus.. thank you for sharing!
Some are traditional recipes but some of them is just me messing up 😉 But there are some less known recipes of course like "Gerouthkia" which are actually super delicious! 🌞 Glad you enjoyed it!
Ti gliko ine?
Siropiasta trigona me krema apo simidali ke komatakia gliko pergamo 😊💖
Συνταγη; :D
Oh my goodness this looks amazing! I WANT to try it. Especially the combo with fish and sweeted citruses must have been great! I usually combine fish with apricot sauce
You should! It taste really good! But apricot sounds great as well! I'll give it a try next time!
I love it from the first seconds, till the end! Cyprus and it's people are my biggest love!
So glad to hear that you like it! 💗🌞
@@JoyofOrigins I like it a lot, and subscribed to your lovely channel!
I'm loving the relaxing background music and your joyful dress! The cat and Mr. Boo are a great addition to the mouthwatering recipie 🥰
Thank you! 💗😊
Absolutely beautiful. Love Cyprus.
Thank you! Cyprus is so beautiful! I agree with you.
Stunning. Beautifully filmed and edited. Wonderful content. Love from Lefkara ❤
Thank you so much 🙂Glad you enjoyed it! 💖
Oh brilliant blue heavens, that looks delicious! I'll have to try this sometime. I do something a little different, I squirt mustard in a cup, peel an orange, dip the orange slices in and enjoy.
That sounds interesting! But in this video is wild mustard.. Not the sauce. 🌞
@@JoyofOrigins Oh! Thank you for the information. I assumed that wild mustard was the primary ingredient in the yellow sauce and that it'd have a similar flavor.
This is beautiful, thank you so much for this.
You're so welcome! Glad you like it! 🙏🏻💖
Great video. I will also show this video to my dear mother. These videos show the benefits of the Mediterranean diet and lifestyle. Good wholesome food with a humble, grateful attitude.
Thank you! You're absolutely right! 🌞
I will show this video to my dear mother
Please do!! 😊
I remember eating these only once when I was very little!! This bought back memories, yummy 😋
Maybe you can make them at home and try them again! 😊 Glad you liked the video!
Ακόμη ένα υπέροχο βίντεάκι!! Συγχαρητήρια κορίτσι μου! Keep Walking!!! ❤️
Ευχαριστώ πάρα πολύ! 🙏🏻💖
Άξια Νοικοκυρά σε όλα ❤️

Hello, thank you for another great video ! 😊 Will you share the recipes ?
Happy to hear you enjoyed the video! 😊 Unfortunately when grandmas are cooking they follow no recipe. everything is measured by eye.. But if you go to the Instagram account of the channel I have previously shared some other similar recipes. Hope you'll found them useful 🙏🏻
You’re never too old to drink the broth. Bravo yiayia!
Exactly! ⭐😍
Η πιο γλυκιά γιαγιά, θυμίζει μου τη δική μου, ευχαριστούμε που τη μοιράστηκες μαζί μας :)

Hi thank you for sharing our Cypriot culture. I would also like to own Cyprus's indigenous flute. Could you tell me where I can get one from and how much it will cost?
Hey there! I don't really know where you can get one or the it's price. Individuals who make them might also sell them. Try checking on Heartland of Legends website. Is a website by the ministry of Tourism. They used to have some free workshops on how to make this flute. Maybe you can get a contact from there.
@@JoyofOriginsHi there thank you for your message. Yes I know the website you mentioned. I will have a look and also visit some of the local music shops to see if they sell them. Thank you again for sharing our amazing culture.
Hello, thanks for sharing the rememberings of your lovely Giagia ❤ What a women ! And how energic and positive she is ! And her memory is better than mine (and I'm half her age 😂). Say hello to her from France for me please ❤ and I can't wait for the next videos !
Thank you so much! 💗🙏🏻
Excited to start this series with my giagia Christothea from my dad's side. 👵🏻Having her story on the channel means a lot to me. Cooking and flowers remind me of her since childhood 😂♥ Learned so much during our interview! What's your fondest memory of your grandma? 🌸
Oh woww!! Cant wait! 😮❤
🙏🏻♥️ can't wait to share the first video too!
Shared!!
Thank you for sharing! That means a lot 💖🙏🏻
Beautiful 😍 bravo!
Happy you liked it! ☺️
Babutsa.

Wow your place looks amazing where?
Thank you 😊🙏🏻 is in Cyprus
Can we eat the red tremith too?😮 Impressive music!
Generally terebinth seeds are eaten when they mature and get their green color. but I guess that red seeds can also be consumed! 😊
Wonderfully filmed and with such a dreamy atmosphere. Absolutely brilliant.
🙏💗
They look very tasty ❤❤ Well done Chara mou!
Ευχαριστώ 💗
Δεν έχω κάνει εγώ. Μου αρέσουν όμως πολύ ❤. Μπράβο που συνεχίζεις την παράδοση μας.
🙏🏻
very relaxing video!!!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊
This is so beautiful! Thank you xxx
Thank you for watching 🙏🏻😍
QUESTION: Have you ever tried Tremithopites or cooked with Terebinth Seeds? Also, it was so interesting for me to realize that some of the villages I pass by so often took their name from this tree!! Like Kokkinotrimithia or Tremithousa! It makes so much sense, but I have never thought of it before!
Just awesome ! If we only come to Cyprus in summer is there a way to get our hands on some of this berry ?
The berries are not mature enough in summer, so it will likely be hard to harvest them directly from a tree. However, you might be able to find them in a nut shop or from a nut vendor.
They look wonderful. I’ve never heard of these before. Love your channel. Kindred spirit as I also came home - to lefkara - as first generation born abroad. Our roots are amazing, I have walked underneath the olive trees in ancestral copper mines and my great grandfathers house is now a museum. I knew nothing as when I finally made the decision to come back, there was no one left to ask.
Glad you like the channel! Hope it can bring you a little bit of the Cypriot spirit wherever you are!💗 And thank you for sharing your story with us!
I graduated from Cyprus college Nicosia, beautiful time spent in Cyprus kindly make vlog on this college and upload on your youtupe channel. Missed Cyprus
A πόσο το απόλαυσα, Χαρά μου. Σ ευχαριστώ!
Χαίρομαι που σου άρεσε! 😊🙏
That looks great! Would it be safe for kids as well? And how much to take every day?
Hey there! This oxymel is made with natural ingredients which are generally safe for children, but since kids can react differently, I suggest starting with a small amount, like 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon per day, and seeing how they feel. It's always a good idea to keep an eye on any reactions as some herbs like sage can be maybe a little bit strong for very young children. There's an entire video dedicated to natural remedies on the channel. If you are interested, feel free to explore more. Enjoy!
This is brilliant! I wish I'd made it a month ago because I have the flu now :( But I'm making tea with sage and wild thyme and nettle and fresh lemons from my garden, and adding local honey :)
Hope you can feel better soon! Herbal teas are also great! Maybe you could make a vinegar infusion and store it for future use. It has a long shelf life. When needed, just combine it with honey.
Excellent work
Αγαπώ!! ❤❤❤
Love love love <3 <3
Thank you! <3
