A swedish "pancake" is pretty much exactly like the russian one you made in the beginning. A raggmunk isn't exactly classed as a pancake here in Sweden :) Great video nonetheless!
I'm seeing a lot of my fellow swedes complain about the ragmunk gthink and I gotta agree, a raggmunk is certainly not a pancake although it is indeed served with lingonberry jam.

>Make a battered, pan fried cake with shredded potatoes >Refuse to call it a pancake This is why Sweden will never become a World Power. A whole house of cards, filled with lies and deceit!
Most of my fellow swedish people would disagreed but i see it as a pancake but with potato in it lol - its so swedish as it can get. Personaly as a swedish invidual i would say i am not triggered at all rather supriced, because i grew up with just a basic tin pancake without shredded potatoes in it, or a fater oven Most homes we do not usually serves it as a brakefast more like a meal or a desert with vanilla icecream and strawberry jam - least were i am from. I will certainly try out the apple sause on raggmunk, sounds way better for me haha!
Haha, of course. We hate it when people from other countries get things about sweden wrong in a public video like this. Or when they get us confused with Switzerland for that matter... 😅 And it's called raggmunk and not pancake, because there is another dish called pancake already in Sweden... (spoiler alert: the swedish pancake) and it's been around far longer than we've even had potatoes in Sweden. And then he goes about making the raggmunk, calling it a Swedish pancake and serves it with completely wrong sides. He makes the German version with applesauce. Far to sweet, and completely different from the more savory Swedish version served with salty pork and the tart lingonberries. It's basically like posting a video on making what you call a genuine carbonara, but you use both cream and peas in it and use the wrong cheese and bacon instead of guanciale... that would upset many Italians.
I've seen others comment this but I'm just adding validity to their claims, a raggmunk isn't really what a swede would call a pancake, our pancakes or pannkaka os more like a crepe or the Russian style pancake you made. But we don't att butter to the batter and if we do its melted. And milk can be substituted with water, but that is more of a "poor man's" recepie. Additionally the Swedish pancake can be a bit thicker then a crepe but that is up to personal preference. And they're served with jam and whipped cream or ice-cream. A noteble version of Swedish pancakes are plättar. Wich are a smaller but often thicker pancake that you need a specific cast iron for called a "plätt järn" Lastly raggmunk is served with either bacon or smoked pork and lingon berry either in jam form or what we in Sweden call "rårörda" lingon. Wich is a more tart alternative. Also in homestyle raggmunk a grated carrot can be mixed into the grated potatoes. Great video 👍
Don't forget "ugnspannkaka" too. Also, smoked pork and bacon is the same thing. What we eat with raggmunkar is salted fried unsmoked pork belly. (Stekfläsk).
What are you talking about? Generally you do add butter into the batter, melted of course but still you have to add it in. I have never heard of anyone who takes out the milk..unless you try to make it vegan in which case you substitute it with something else, you don't just use water instead as it doesn't bring the same richness, qualities or texture to the pancake. Swedish pancakes are generally just slightly thicker than a crepe yes but of course that is personal preference as EVERYTHING is but here we're talking in general terms.
You made an excellent dosa. Usually it is difficult to make such crispy dosa. In India we have many pancakes, if we go by your defination. We have Besan Chilla, Stuffed Chilla, Moong Daal Chila, Khandavi, Neer dosa, Uttapam, Appam, Chilka Roti, Pua, Malpua, and many many more. Please do explore these recipes. Love the way you go so deep into a recipe. Do try all these
Raggmunk would typically be served with lingonberry as you said, but another component in a raggmunk is bacon by the side. The robust taste profile and "fattiness" of the potatoes and bacon is immediately undercut by the acidity and brightness of the lingonberries, essentially serving as a reset button for your palette allowing you to scarf them down endlessly. Which is why we Swedes also love them on our meatballs. However when we typically say pannkakor (pancakes) or plättar if you're from the north we refer to the blin type of pancake. We also have ugnspannkakor (oven pancakes) which is just regular pancake batter but made in the oven instead, my parents love to have them with bits of bacon inside while i opt for the sweeter side with jam. Blood pancakes are also very popular here and i think Germany also has them(?). The blood gives them an interesting "rubber" quality because of the iron and coagulation.
rather then bacon I think normally most people use Cured pork, same cut as bacon but salty instead of smoked, usually cut a bit thicker. Another thing is rather then frying the Raggmunk in butter, alot of people fry them in the rendered fat from the pork :)
På hans sätt skulle också äggkaka eller vad det heter vara en pankaka xd (3 ägg, 3 dl Mjölk, 3 dl vetemjöl, 1 nypa salt. Blanda väl. Släng in allt i stekpannan och stek den. Servera med bacon och lingonsylt)
I agree, Jose! Traditional Cachapas are bigger, thicker, and usually served with a lot... like, A LOT of cheese! (And/or - some sort of "pulled"- pork, ham.) with a little bit of room temperature butter or Natilla on top (or both if you are brave enough). I'm not sure how tasty they are with Mozzarella instead of Queso de Mano, but I'm being picky here. 😅 However, referring to them as a sort of pancake is a bit of a stretch, but I think this video is more about pancake/crêpe like recipes and how diverse and different they can be around the world. On a side note, if you try to make Cachapas again, I suggest you use a mix of buttermilk and milk instead of just milk. Other than that, you did great, Andong!
Pfff, my fellow swedes are touchy.. Sure, our traditional pancake is pretty much exaclty your blini. But there's no point in showing the same thing twice. Your raggmunk looks great and I will defninatley try it with apple sauce next time.
Hey Andong, I have really enjoyed your willingness to learn and make mistakes because that’s what cooking is about. My partner, Sonia, is Venezuelan and we have tried many times with the freshest corn available and the best results always require chachapa flour. I don’t recommend regular maseca or masa Hareina. Apparently it has something to do with Venezuela having many varieties of corn all with different uses. Some are more starchy and used for “pancakes” or cachapas. Hope this is useful!
A lot of coments on the raggmunk and I must add to them to say yours really doesn't look like a traditional raggmunk (which might be good because I don't like them), the batter is too thick, it needs more potatoes and it's usually cooked more so it has more colour and get some crispy bits. And like other people already have said we definitely don't call them pancakes in Sweden (our pancakes are pretty much the same as the russian ones but we have whipped cream instead of sourcream) and they are definitely not served with applesauce but bacon and lingonberries :b I really liked the video though! And you have a really nice voice!
I’m glad that you did the “Raggmunk” but you N E E D it with lingonberry jay and one last thing smoked pork, something like bacon but thicker and not as smoked.
@@mooonoiocoa I would say that's more of a "råraka" in the article, a raggmunk has more finely grated potato at least in my opinion! But I do really love rårakor... Yum!
For anyone interested in Breton Crêpes, here's a bit more info that might interest you: First, in the western half Brittany (the western "arm" of France), "galettes" are just crêpes; or, to be precise, crêpes de blé noir (the French term for buckwheat is "black wheat"). And since my family originates from the Morbihan region, I'll be using crêpes for both; either wheat crêpes or buckwheat crêpes. *Side-note:* Until the government actively finished killing off all local dialects and regional accents across France somewhere around the time between the two World Wars, Bretons mostly only spoke… Breton, a Celtic language closest to Welsh (or better, Cornish). Furthermore, even within Brittany, language was not nearly uniform. My two grandparents come from villages separated by just a few kilometers, but when they met, they could just barely understand each-other (imagine someone from the most remote parts of the USA, maybe Louisiana and someone with one of those mind-blowing accents from somewhere in Britain or Ireland). The distinction between the two is clearly that my grandfather was from a larger town closer to the coast, so his Breton had a lot more French mixed in, and possibly some other languages, while my grandmother spoke a "purer" and more rural Breton. Getting back to the topic, my grandfather would call crêpes "krampuairr" (rough interpretation of the sounds into English) while my grandmother says "krampoos"; both totally different from the modern "litterary" breton "krampouezh". Now for some interesting details: traditional buckwheat crêpes are actually extremely difficult to make because they *do not* use eggs or milk. This means the buckwheat flour-which doesn't stick together like wheat does-has to be agitated before pouring in order to remain in suspension in the liquid and not all sink to the bottom. This results in thin gray crêpe (brown where grilled) *full* of holes (formed by air bubbles when the water boils away) and with a rich and distinct buckwheat flavor. And I do mean *distinct*! Buckwheat is quite strong and rich, which works great for a really thin crêpe; it's hardy and filling even though there's basically nothing to it. In fact, the simple ingredients (water, cheap flour made from what are basically weeds in the region, water, salt, and a bit of butter) are a dead giveaway of what this was: a basic "bread" typical of an extremely poor region*. My grandparents clearly remember it being the base of most evening meals when they were kids; usually served with a mostly-clear vegetable broth to dip in (often the broth was poured directly in "bowls" curt directly into the table-top). Traditionally, they are served either 1) Dry and dipped in buttermilk; or 2) Covered in butter (while still piping hot, so the butter should be all melted). This said, in places with more money, other toppings were also very common; here are a few "classics": - Andouillette (aka. chitterling sausage… smoked pork intestine sausage) - Ham, cheese and an egg (usually called a crêpe complète, which is like saying "the works") - Lard (French thick-cut bacon, the kind with visible fat lines) or lardons (the traditional French bacon "bits"); sometimes with potatoes Naturally, most crêperies now offer much more variety in terms of toppings (sausage and mustard, spinach and smoked salmon, …), but a great sign of a "real" traditional Breton crêperie will be the presence of "dry" and butter crêpes at the top of the list, and *at least* Andouillette from the list above. My understanding is that the wheat flour crêpes are more of a naturally formed "fusion" cuisine that likely appeared either in eastern Brittany or along the coast where more wheat flour was used. Though this is just intuition, not something I've researched into. They are considered "traditional" when paired with sweet toppings (sugar, jam, chocolate/Nutella etc.) while buckwheat crêpes are basically always savory and full of butter. *This is a bit over-simplified: the coastal parts of Brittany were actually quite rich at some points in time, especially when colonies were all the rage (both because of import/export of goods, but also-unfortunately-slavery), but the rest of Brittany was quite poor for a long time. Most Bretons did not speak French, and were often looked down upon as being crass, crude and mostly just peasant folk. There is a rich history of cultural discrimination there that I am not qualified to get into.
@@martinn.6082 Since you dug this old post up, I'll use it as a sign to add a few juicy bits of information: The abundance of butter in Breton cuisine is the result of an exemption from a salt tax (la Gabelle) across most of France throughout the Middle Ages; I forget the details, but some regions were annexed or joined mainland France after the law was instated, and didn't have to follow it. Now you'll ask: what does this have to do with butter? Well, salted butter can be kept, transported, and sold a lot more easily. So at a much cheaper price (this tax was massive in the rest of France, making salt about 20× more expensive than in Britany), meaning butter became a much more common, and reliable business. So Bretons had tons of affordable salted butter to use in their cooking. For this reason, you will often hear French people from Breton origin sneer at anyone who uses unsalted butter… and then turn around and absolutely drown anything they cook in oodles of salted butter. So yeah, crêpes with a lot of salted butter. They're pure bliss, and I would highly recommend the experience.
While everyone is talking about the swedish "not pancake", I will talk about the french one ! Galette is usually made just with buckweat flour, salt and water, sometimes an egg but no necessarily. No milk ! So the color is much darker and it is very different of a crêpe ! And most of the time, it is only eaten with savory food :) for the sweat, you really go for a crêpe (witch is really the same as the russian one) But really great video and quality content !!! I just discovered your channel and I love it!!
He did say most of this. Besides adding milk to the recipe instead of water, he did all the things you suggested. And milk instead of water is purely a preference thing when it comes to pancakes. Pancake recipes will usually work with either, it's just that ones made using milk will have a richer flavour. Perhaps not necessary with a galette, I'm not sure.
Damn, the Swedes are throwing a fit over the raggmunk. And while I agree, I understand why Andong did it. Swedish pancake is basically the same as the Russian blini, so if he replace it with raggmunk, he would have only done the blin.
@@G0rgar By that definition, omelettes and tortilla are pamcakes right? Which I mean sure. The problem is that every swede who hear pancake think of pannkaka, not raggmunk. Some might think oven pancake but never raggmunk. Its a bit like calling a whaffle a pancake. Stretch definitions a bit and it qualifies. But it sure as hell wasn't what anyone expected. Its also not as good as pannkaka :v
@@RezEverday Tortilla is made from a kneeded dough, it's bread not a cake and I don't think I really need to point out the difference between an omelet and a cake. waffle is for sure in a gray area, but uh, no pan I guess? It might not be your favorite variety of Swedish pancake but it's still a pancake.
You would absolutely LOVE the dutch pannenkoekenhuizen (Pancake houses). These are restaurants fully devoted to pancakes. Each house has their own secret batter. Here you can get German style pancakes, sometimes with a little bit of fermentation. But you can order it with whatever you want in or on it. Dutch cheese & ham. Ham & pineapple. Blueberry. Sometimes mixed in with the batter, sometimes on top of the batter, sometimes added after baking it. The whole experience of a pancake house is amazing, like visiting your grandmother.
Hey Andong, not sure if you'll see this but I wanted to correct a few things regarding the Canjeero (pronounced "Anjero") 1 - Anjero does not have Teff flour. People usually assume Anjero and Injera (Ethiopian) have the same/similar ingredients - but Anjero is traditionally made with Maize, Wheat Flour and some rare cases...Buckwheat. 2 - While we do eat Anjero like a pancake (honey, butter, sesame oil), I wouldn't really class it a "pancake". Technically, you can class it as a pancake, as it doesn't have the substantial texture of the Injera - but if you ask a Somali what a "Somali pancake" is...they would immediately reply Malawax (Malawah). Malawah is actually very similar to the Russian Blintz and the British pancake. I guess the one difference is that Malawah has no oil or butter incorporated into the dough, however - unlike the Blintz, you fry it in a fair amount of oil or clarified butter to get a crispy bottom and a spotty top. Both Anjero and Malawah can be eaten sweet or savoury... I would love a video on the different types of spiced tea, so many variations like Yemeni, Indian, Somali and even the westernised "Chai Latte".
Guys, he didn’t say raggmunk was a pancake, he just said it's based around a pancake-like batter, which is true. As for the apple jam, yes lingon is the traditional pairing, which he also mentioned and he said that as a german he likes it with apple sauce. Ta det lungt alla, raggmunk är skitgott oavsett vad man har det med!
@@ericalee0610 "The title says it's pancake, though." And if you watch the video and listen to the guy's voice, you will understand exactly what Joachim was pointing out in his comment. I mean, if you watch videos by reading the video's title and calling it a day, more power to you.
Thank you. Everyone so mad. He defined 'pancakes' himself at the beginning of the video, and it fits his definition. If people dont like his definition they should make thier own video and define it themselves.
This is really interesting! Pancakes are such a versatile basic concept. Being Swedish, I've grown up mostly associating pancake with sweet flavours (jam and whipped cream is a classic, or ice cream). I usually brown my butter in the pan before pouring in my batter, which gives a really good flavour. I've only had Ethiopian injera once but I really liked it - I'll definitely have to try the Somali version at some point. All the savoury variations look delicious! My favourite pancake based food is probably the Chinese jianbing - it's savoury, soft, crunchy, filling, and just super delicious. As for the "controversy": I think my fellow Swedes need to work on their English comprehension 🙄 raggmunk isn't presented as _the_ Swedish pancake, but _a style of_ Swedish pancake - which it absolutely is.
As a guy from the northern parts of Sweden i'm having a great time reading the furious comments from the south of Sweden. Here in the north we are mocked at for calling "pancakes" "plättar" by southern swedes, and we always have to defend our way of calling "pancakes" "plättar". For us in the northern parts, "pancakes" is what other swedes refer to as "oven pancakes" which is (as it sounds) a big pancake you bake in the oven in an oven plate.
I'm thinking the same thing with basically every non European dish in the world being called "curry" and laughing when we start getting up set when the same is done but with far for respect by our own
Wait, I'm from the southern half and I had no idea that you guys called them that. Where I live plättar are those slightly thicker tiny pancakes, what would you guys call those?
What? I literally live in southern Sweden and we call tunnpankakor = pankakor and ovenpancakes are ungspankaka?? Plättar are the TINY tunnpankakor, small enough to fit in your palm basically.
@@cael9078 Yup. I'm aware of that, it's a dialectal variation that's approximately crosses the Västerbotten County - south of it people call it "pannkakor/tunnpannkakor" and the smaller ones "plättar". North of it as i described "plättar" and "småplättar".
Upvoted just for my beloved Breton co-citizens' galettes ^^ There's also another french pancake version from the southern part called "matefaim", "matafan" or "matefin" (about the same pronouciation although the first one might be the easiest one for you to decipher, it means "hungerbuster"). It is a sort of very thick pancake, so thick it could be called the lambas of pancakes.
As a Venezuelan I never considered Cachapas a pancake, but here is a way easier way of making them with only 2 ingredients: -Fresh corn -Corn flour Yes, a lot of corn, I know, but it's the only way it works in the US because for some reason the corn here is different, in Vzla we use more ingredients but here the corn is way sweeter and moister. First, take the corn and add it to the blender, then gradually put the flour until it is a pancake-like consistency (not too watery). And that's it.
Gracias! I always think of cachapas as the base for a delicious lunch, with beans, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and a bit more in the veggie version. Andong, please do a more extensive dive into the world of cachapas
Somali's have a sweet pancake called malawah and the canjeero is considered more savoury as it's usually served with stews but can also be had with sesame oil (or butter) and sweet somali tea over the top.
Super impressed by his pancake game! 👏🏼 And it’s amazing how he nailed so many dishes of pancake type foods from around the world that are so varied and unique. I like how he paid homage to the different corners of the globe by small things like the style of garnishing the Japanese dish with those signature lines of mayo and flakes on top, and rolling the dosas so perfectly eating them with his hands. As a language enthusiast, I loved hearing his pronunciation of crêpe the right way! As a pancake enthusiast, I would like to add a few of my favourites to the list for others to try: 1) The Chinese jian bing （煎饼）: a super big crêpe, cooked with a layer of egg squeegeed on top, folded up around a crispy cracker with some salty and spicy sauces. Perfect breakfast. 2) The Brazilian tapioca pancakes (beijú) with lots of melty butter. 3) The Taiwanese crêpe burrito (潤餅), filled with 2-3 ice cream scoops of different local flavours, shaved candied peanut, and cilantro (trust me, it works!) (Also from Taiwan, the custard-stuffed pancakes are the best!) 4) My great-grandmother was from Belarus, and she would always make her palachinki with so much love at every special family meal. They are crêpes that are rolled up with a sweet cottage cheese filling, topped with whipped cream and delicious, runny thawed strawberries. 5) I’m Canadian, so I must also mention the renowned Canadian flapjack (especially my family recipe), but it HAS to be served with 100% real maple syrup (none of those imposter syrups!) That’s all! What are your favourite pancakes? I am always ready to add more to my list of things to try!
Raggmunk requires thick bacon and lingonberry... the blasphemy of apple sauce... Sweden has a normal pancake as well which would be almost identical to the first russian one...
I think his German is showing, as Raggmunkar are similar to German Kartoffelpuffer (as in: potato in batter), and those _are_ traditionally eaten with apple sauce.
Very interesting, there are so many types to discover! A small note: a French buckwheat galette normally uses water, not milk, as the liquid component -- milk is typically used only for crêpes.
Huge pancake tour, awesome man! Just to add my pinch of salt, I'm from Brittany where's the French galettes and crêpes are from and the difference between thoses two isn't just the flour. For galette you only use water instead of milk and usually leave the batter a bit thicker than for crêpes. Anyway thanks for all this tour.
Hahaha, I feel so bad for this guy. He made a video about how great different pancakes are, and all he gets is angry Swedes yelling at him for eating the wrong pancake xD hahahahahahaha. I liked your video, and I like how you compliment the different pancakes. You clearly love food. There's more than 1 pancake in Sweden, and everyone argues which one is called "pancake" and what the others are and should be called.... As far as I know there's at least 3 different Swedish pancakes, I can't blame a foreigner for picking the wrong one in his video xD Shouldn't Swedes just be happy that they got to be in the video???? Geez. For me: the Swedish pancake is the ugnspannkaka - because I've never seen it in Norway. It tastes like a pancake but it looks different. And when my friend served blueberry pancake I was surprised when I saw it, but then I tasted it and it tasted just like a blueberry pancake should. I realized it's GENIUS, because frying 20 pancakes, one by one, in the frying pan is SO BORING. But pouring the whole patter into an oven tray and baking it is so easy.
I do love that Norway is your deciding factor there, må alltid se til den beste av oss, eller hva? Now for s hot take for us scandinavians. A Lompe is a type of pancake
Bruh the original dose of Karnataka were served ONLY with groundnut and coriander chutney(I'm from Karnataka)...sambhar came into the picture only when tamilians took the dose recipie back to their state. So yeah... chutney would be the OG accompaniment.(I like to dip my dosa in chutney AND sambhar together btw😊)
@@insaimp the whole concept of pancakes is the use of pans for making them, so i guess a chila or a dosa is a pancake by definition, whereas malpuas are fried and dipped in syrup, closer to a deflated donut I'd say
Dosa is being slept on in Germany. It’s so damn good and a vegetarian dream food. Plus it’s great if you’re trying to save some money. In a pinch red lentils can be subbed for the urad daal.

Yo Don Antonio, I'm Venezuelan, your rendition of the cachapa is a solid 7/10. You need more cheese (a lot more, btw, queso de mano is just a different shape for mozzarella, they gro through the same process, except queso de mano is primarily cow milk instead of buffalo) and a huge dollop of salty creme fraiche on top. We call it nata. Cachapa is supposed to be sweet, so feel free to add more sugar if the corn is not sweet enough. I found that wheat flour helps with the elasticity of the dough (helps in the folding process) a lot better than harina pan (which is not the same as Masa, masa is nixtamalized, while harina pan is pre-cooked). If you have any specific questions I'm happy to share more!
The proper way to put syrup on American pancakes is to place a small amount on the plate and cover with the first pancake. Top with butter and some more syrup. Add next pancake, top again with some butter and syrup and continue until have a stack of at least 3 and up to 5. Then pour syrup on the top of the stack until it runs off and down the sides.

Omg the proudness I felt when I suddently hearded about our Venezuelan Cachapas 🥰🥰🤩🤩 I love them!! We achieve the perfect consistency of the corn by grinding the corn, you can use for example the meat grinder of the kitchenaid. To that we always add a little bit of sugar, milk and we add some corn flour to make it take a texture that doesn’t break when you flap it. Success with your next try! We also love to put some butter before the cheese 😁🙈 omg my mouth is watering!
Hahaha, so many Swedish people upset, including me ^^. But kind of upset with a big smile on my face. Amazing video, and your Raggmunkar were great, even though served weirdly by them selves without bacon and apple sauce instead of lingon berry. Your pronounciation was pretty much spot on too. Just so you understand that all this "complaining" is not to be taken to seriously, I am subscribing after watching only one of your videos. You are a natural behind the camera and the whole thing was so well produced with professional sound and video. Amazing!
In Philippines we have shrimp pancakes called "okoy/ukoy". Usually comprised of a batter with -constarch -all purpose flour -egg -salt -pepper -and water for consistency (should be a smooth silky batter) Then add the shrimps to the batter (tiny shrimps are used and also do not remove the shells, this helps with the crispiness of the dish) This is to be cooked pan fried and served with vinegar (some add garlic to the vinegar)
The dutch are really interesting when it comes to pancakes. I mean they eat them sweet or savory, they make em with different kinds of flour and they even have restaurants just dedicated to the flat dish ^^
I mean ...... it's really the same in France actually. You have two types : Crêpe and Galette, both made slightly differently and with different tastes, with Galette being generally preferred for dishes (probably the most recognisable one is served with eggs, cheese and lard and/or mushroom, both is best but you can have only one of either if you prefer) whereas crêpes are better used for the dessert (but it can still work perfectly for a main dish of course, it is slightly more sugary than a galette but it isn't a big deal at all and can even work wonders, just avoid galettes with sugary treats it works way less that way) and we also have dedicated restaurants for these called crêperies and ....... honestly that's probably one the places where you want to go as a child, there's nothing better than it for kids in my opinion and I am sure that most French people that would stumble upon here would have fond recollections of their time in one of those when they were young
No fluffy souffle pancakes? Btw as a South Indian and huge fan of dosas, that dosa looked legit . We usually add salt and baking soda to batter but your's still looked superb. Next time you make them spread a thin layer of red chilli chutney (blend together 2-4 red chillies depending on your taste, 4-5 garlic cloves, two tablespoons of roasted Bengal gram, a teaspoon of tamarind, a quarter cup of chopped onions or shallot, bit of salt and just enough water to make a puree) on the surface before adding the potato masala.
Andong since you mentioned flat breads aren't pancakes, I challange you to make a flatbread form all over the world challange. From Rotis to tacos, but starting with the brazilian tapioca flat bread!
Somali represent. That was actually really well made for canjerro. Next time try it with some oil and tea in a stack. Best breakfast ever! I would suggest a few ways to make the process easier as well but that's for another time! Well done!!!
Any kind really. You just need the fat to not make it super dry. We use sunflower or whatever we have at home. Some use olive oil. Whatever you have works great with it.
So he did a rice dosa and freaked out? Wow. What happened to ragi, jowar and rava dosa? What are they, counter-cleaning cloth? And, of course, not to forget the north Indians, not a chilla in sight.
i´m arab/german and tried like all sorts of pancakes but nothing beats blini yet! The mother of my russian friend taught me 10 years ago and i cant stop making them on sundays hahahah
I found your channel yesterday and I've been binging it since. I love how well-researched your stuff is and the fact that you combine it with a walk-through of the recipe and a detailed review of how things taste is just wonderful. Now, back to binge-watching.
French speaking here, your galette doesn't look like one. The buckwheat should have colored the pancake more than that. My receipe is 330g of buckwheat flour, 750g of water, a looottt of salt, one egg and some butter. And it's traditionnally eaten with emmental, ham and and egg as a topping. But in fact your can eat almost anything salty in it. The galette is a lot different than crêpe. I think you had wheat mixed with buckwheat that's why you find them similar while they are not.
Galette sure can be eaten with any savoury filling, but it's also great with sweet ones. Like butter/sugar/lemon is kind of amazing. Excellent as the last couple of galettes to finish the meal after 2 or 3 complete ones (ham, egg, cheese, tomatoes, mushrooms, whatever vegetable you want really) and a couple more simple ham and cheese.
I was also surprised how light it is in colour but I think here in France we use mostly less processed Buckwheat flour than they do in Anglo countries. And I've always thought of the creamed spinach, cheese and egg as the more traditional way to serve it. Ham + Emmenthal always struck me as a galette adaptation of the classic sandwich. Add in the egg and it's a Croque Madame in a galette X-D
The journey doesn't stop here! I'd recommend trying the Vietnamese savory crepe, Banh Xeo. The batter a very thin one consisting of rice flour (though some people use blended soaked rice) colored with turmeric speckled with scallion greens, with a liquid component of either water or beer. The method of cooking is as follows: fry thinly sliced pork and shrimp that has optionally been pre-seasoned in your pan. When the meats are halfway cooked, pour over your batter and lay some mung bean sprouts over the center where you will fold it. Cover and fry until the bottom is crispy, then fold and plate. Consume by tearing off pieces and wrapping with lettuce, herbs of choice (mint and perilla especially), assorted fresh vegetables (especially cucumber), and dip in a dressing of fish sauce, sugar, water, lime juice, minced garlic, and minced birds eye chilies.
I was surprised when you went with Anjero instead of Malawah and I was even more surprised when you used yeast because I’ve never seen Anjero made that way. But I’m still really glad Somalia was in this video and I really wanna test this recipe now.
Darling! Geil. So “raggmunk” (singular) or “raggmunkar” (plural) both sing and plural form goes, are done and served with bacon and lingonberries in the land of Schweden. It’s a less popular dish today but it’s around, most of the hardcore fans are likely seniors. I’m convinced, some of our ancestors moved here just to farm 🐷 🐖 🤣 Raggmunkar also a great example of the important use of balancing ingredients - flavours - textures in the traditional Swedish cuisines, tart berries, fatty salty bacon, potatoes - together. While being frugal, seasonal and not wasting anything. sweden.se/culture-traditions/raggmunk/ The Swedish people, we, usually mean this dish when we speak of “pancakes” or “pannkakor” (Swedish word) slightly thicker than creeps and served with strawberry or other choice of jam and whipped cream. I preferred the version called “plättar” as a kid. www.swedishfood.com/swedish-food-recipes-desserts/244-panncake-torte
I am a young Swede, and I make raggmunkar perhaps 2-3 times a month when potatoes are cheap at the store and I bulk up on potatoes at home. Also ugnspannkaka is super common, and most families eat this at least once a month, with bacon and lingonberry jam. Down in Skåne (Southern of Sweden), we have something called "äggkaka" (or "äggakaga" in dialectal Scanian) which is similar to the "ugnspannkaka" but with double the egg, so it's a bit spongier, and also it's cooked directly in a cast iron pan, also with bits of bacon in it and lingonberry jam.
@KampKarl well we call them crêpes becuase it's not like our rugular pancakes that are more like the blini but also not like raggmunkar and it'a not the exact same as crêpes either.
also, american pancakes are closer in consistency and ingredients as a regular pound cake. It's basically just pound cake batter poured in a frying pan.
Hi Andong, I am from Indonesia. I just discovered your channel and really enjoyed it. To add to your pancake of the world collection: we have a snack called ‘dadar gulung’. A green colored crepe liked pancake (green color comes from pandan paste), filled with sweetened shredded coconut (sweetened with brown coconut sugar). You should try it.
Swedes ppl: mad, because he made the wrong completely average "pancake" of their 2 different choices of "pancake" Meanwhile, all Austrians standing there with a whole bowl of Kaiserschmarrn: are we a joke to you?
I would've loved to have seen bánh xèo added to that list as it's both unique and very popular among the Vietnamese people. The French galette looked amazing and something I try. Overall a great video. Props for both high quality content and high quality camera work.
I remember in high school some kid made a joke "What does ethiopian food taste like? The Ethiopians don't know either!" only I'd been to an ethiopian restaurant so it was just absurd
Marina that’s true, I’m Swedish and this is not pancakes. That is not how we do pancakes in Sweden, raggmunk is another dish of it’s own like the German kartoffelpuffer. The Swedish pancakes is done flour, milk, eggs and butter, served with whipped cream and sweet jam of your own choice. I prefer strawberry jam.
"Raggmunk is the name for a Swedish potato pancake" (sweden.se/culture-traditions/raggmunk/) Just because your country has one kind of pancake doesn't mean it can't have several different kinds. Why can't y'all just stop complaining and be happy that your country was mentioned?
@@rickythomas9698 You'll always find dumb people triggered for nothing and with a lot of time to waste for causes no one should care about.

Love this video. No controversy regarding the American version you made it it perfect. If anybody wants to make them and they don't have buttermilk you can add two tablespoons of vinegar to 3/4 of a cup of milk and let it sit for about 5 minutes, and they'll still come out super fluffy.

The thing is, even though I also prefer the style of russian pancake you showed, but the proper russian blinis would be the yeasted kind, that when baked from the yeast become lace like. But then maybe that's just me.
According to my girlfriend blinis are made with sour cream (like literally everything else in Russia lol) I feel like blini recipes vary wildly depending on region
@@morristgh try those (made without sour cream (can be added to many of those as a topping)): пирожки, курники, котлеты, окрошка, щи, солянка, уха, оливье, сельдь под шубой, столичный (салат), пельмени, вареники, шарлотка, пряники, пастила
A swedish "pancake" is pretty much exactly like the russian one you made in the beginning. A raggmunk isn't exactly classed as a pancake here in Sweden :) Great video nonetheless!

This is why Sweden will never become a World Power. A whole house of cards, filled with lies and deceit!
Most of my fellow swedish people would disagreed but i see it as a pancake but with potato in it lol - its so swedish as it can get.
Personaly as a swedish invidual i would say i am not triggered at all rather supriced, because i grew up with just a basic tin pancake without shredded potatoes in it, or a fater oven
Most homes we do not usually serves it as a brakefast more like a meal or a desert with vanilla icecream and strawberry jam - least were i am from.
I will certainly try out the apple sause on raggmunk, sounds way better for me haha!
Haha, of course. We hate it when people from other countries get things about sweden wrong in a public video like this. Or when they get us confused with Switzerland for that matter... 😅
And it's called raggmunk and not pancake, because there is another dish called pancake already in Sweden... (spoiler alert: the swedish pancake) and it's been around far longer than we've even had potatoes in Sweden.
And then he goes about making the raggmunk, calling it a Swedish pancake and serves it with completely wrong sides. He makes the German version with applesauce. Far to sweet, and completely different from the more savory Swedish version served with salty pork and the tart lingonberries.
It's basically like posting a video on making what you call a genuine carbonara, but you use both cream and peas in it and use the wrong cheese and bacon instead of guanciale... that would upset many Italians.
@@hannie1301 and then proceed to say the carbonara is basically bolognese
The Swedish pancake is called “tunnpannkaka” which means thin pancake. The thing you did “raggmunk” is NOT what we call pancake.
Yep, I was surprised first that he mentioned raggmunk. Raggmunk is not a pancake...
I agreed!! I am also supriced by that XD

@@Piggeu Apam balik (or we Indonesian sometimes called it martabak manis) is my favourite, especially if it have cheese in it.
Austria
If size doesn't matter, kue cubit (lit. pinch cake) can also be classified as pancake. It has starchy components and runny batter.
Indonesian pancake would be kue leker,serabi solo,kue ape.
Apam balik/Martabak Manis/Terang bulan is from China.
I've seen others comment this but I'm just adding validity to their claims, a raggmunk isn't really what a swede would call a pancake, our pancakes or pannkaka os more like a crepe or the Russian style pancake you made. But we don't att butter to the batter and if we do its melted. And milk can be substituted with water, but that is more of a "poor man's" recepie. Additionally the Swedish pancake can be a bit thicker then a crepe but that is up to personal preference. And they're served with jam and whipped cream or ice-cream.
A noteble version of Swedish pancakes are plättar. Wich are a smaller but often thicker pancake that you need a specific cast iron for called a "plätt järn"
Lastly raggmunk is served with either bacon or smoked pork and lingon berry either in jam form or what we in Sweden call "rårörda" lingon. Wich is a more tart alternative. Also in homestyle raggmunk a grated carrot can be mixed into the grated potatoes.
Great video 👍
Glöm inte kolbullar också
Skrev du med svensk autokorrekt
Don't forget "ugnspannkaka" too.
Also, smoked pork and bacon is the same thing.
What we eat with raggmunkar is salted fried unsmoked pork belly. (Stekfläsk).
What are you talking about? Generally you do add butter into the batter, melted of course but still you have to add it in. I have never heard of anyone who takes out the milk..unless you try to make it vegan in which case you substitute it with something else, you don't just use water instead as it doesn't bring the same richness, qualities or texture to the pancake. Swedish pancakes are generally just slightly thicker than a crepe yes but of course that is personal preference as EVERYTHING is but here we're talking in general terms.
Haha jag älskar att du skrev en uppsats om pannkakor på engelska i ett kommentarsfält 😂
Raggmunk is not pancake, “pannkaka” is Swedish pancake.....
Pankaka is just the Swedish Word for pancake
plätta is the word

Jesper Granström isn’t plärtta like a crepe? pannkaka is a literal pancake.
Yep... looking at the comments about "raggmunk" being the pancake of Sweden... You need to revisit this touchy topic and get it right.
You made an excellent dosa. Usually it is difficult to make such crispy dosa. In India we have many pancakes, if we go by your defination. We have Besan Chilla, Stuffed Chilla, Moong Daal Chila, Khandavi, Neer dosa, Uttapam, Appam, Chilka Roti, Pua, Malpua, and many many more. Please do explore these recipes. Love the way you go so deep into a recipe. Do try all these
the swedish pancacke is exactly like the russian one the only difference is that you melt the butter
Also you don't have sourcream on pancakes in sweden
No, we don't use sugar in our batter.
it's the same in France

More like entered
And it’s not a Raggmunk without the lingonberry and bacon 🥓
@@stinaBerggren och blodpudding
Ja ja köttbullar
Why tho
"How do you even eat a stack of pancakes?"
Gluttonously.
Raggmunk would typically be served with lingonberry as you said, but another component in a raggmunk is bacon by the side. The robust taste profile and "fattiness" of the potatoes and bacon is immediately undercut by the acidity and brightness of the lingonberries, essentially serving as a reset button for your palette allowing you to scarf them down endlessly. Which is why we Swedes also love them on our meatballs.
However when we typically say pannkakor (pancakes) or plättar if you're from the north we refer to the blin type of pancake. We also have ugnspannkakor (oven pancakes) which is just regular pancake batter but made in the oven instead, my parents love to have them with bits of bacon inside while i opt for the sweeter side with jam. Blood pancakes are also very popular here and i think Germany also has them(?). The blood gives them an interesting "rubber" quality because of the iron and coagulation.
rather then bacon I think normally most people use Cured pork, same cut as bacon but salty instead of smoked, usually cut a bit thicker. Another thing is rather then frying the Raggmunk in butter, alot of people fry them in the rendered fat from the pork :)
And some people dare to claim there is no culture there...
Sounds delicious
👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
På hans sätt skulle också äggkaka eller vad det heter vara en pankaka xd (3 ägg, 3 dl Mjölk, 3 dl vetemjöl, 1 nypa salt. Blanda väl. Släng in allt i stekpannan och stek den. Servera med bacon och lingonsylt)
we say plättar down in skåne to! (:
Carbon är inte plättar mer små pannkakor?
Aren’t plättar like smaller pancakes?
Venezuelan Here, it's amazing that you took us in consideration
I agree, Jose!
Traditional Cachapas are bigger, thicker, and usually served with a lot... like, A LOT of cheese! (And/or - some sort of "pulled"- pork, ham.) with a little bit of room temperature butter or Natilla on top (or both if you are brave enough).
I'm not sure how tasty they are with Mozzarella instead of Queso de Mano, but I'm being picky here. 😅
However, referring to them as a sort of pancake is a bit of a stretch, but I think this video is more about pancake/crêpe like recipes and how diverse and different they can be around the world.
On a side note, if you try to make Cachapas again, I suggest you use a mix of buttermilk and milk instead of just milk.
Other than that, you did great, Andong!
Yay, a non-Swedish comment.
I came to the comments to find about the Venezuelan pancake, but all I could find was angry Swedish...
Thank you for commenting!!!
Igual
muchacho jalabola tu no ve que esas cachapas tan crudas
Pfff, my fellow swedes are touchy.. Sure, our traditional pancake is pretty much exaclty your blini. But there's no point in showing the same thing twice. Your raggmunk looks great and I will defninatley try it with apple sauce next time.
Hey Andong, I have really enjoyed your willingness to learn and make mistakes because that’s what cooking is about. My partner, Sonia, is Venezuelan and we have tried many times with the freshest corn available and the best results always require chachapa flour. I don’t recommend regular maseca or masa Hareina. Apparently it has something to do with Venezuela having many varieties of corn all with different uses. Some are more starchy and used for “pancakes” or cachapas. Hope this is useful!
A lot of coments on the raggmunk and I must add to them to say yours really doesn't look like a traditional raggmunk (which might be good because I don't like them), the batter is too thick, it needs more potatoes and it's usually cooked more so it has more colour and get some crispy bits. And like other people already have said we definitely don't call them pancakes in Sweden (our pancakes are pretty much the same as the russian ones but we have whipped cream instead of sourcream) and they are definitely not served with applesauce but bacon and lingonberries :b
I really liked the video though! And you have a really nice voice!
I do not like them either, i just like my normal plättar wich i roll into a tube with sugar inside
I’m glad that you did the “Raggmunk” but you N E E D it with lingonberry jay and one last thing smoked pork, something like bacon but thicker and not as smoked.

I'm an American and I feel triggered about him messing it up. XD
For anyone interested in Breton Crêpes, here's a bit more info that might interest you:
First, in the western half Brittany (the western "arm" of France), "galettes" are just crêpes; or, to be precise, crêpes de blé noir (the French term for buckwheat is "black wheat").
And since my family originates from the Morbihan region, I'll be using crêpes for both; either wheat crêpes or buckwheat crêpes.
*Side-note:* Until the government actively finished killing off all local dialects and regional accents across France somewhere around the time between the two World Wars, Bretons mostly only spoke… Breton, a Celtic language closest to Welsh (or better, Cornish). Furthermore, even within Brittany, language was not nearly uniform.
My two grandparents come from villages separated by just a few kilometers, but when they met, they could just barely understand each-other (imagine someone from the most remote parts of the USA, maybe Louisiana and someone with one of those mind-blowing accents from somewhere in Britain or Ireland). The distinction between the two is clearly that my grandfather was from a larger town closer to the coast, so his Breton had a lot more French mixed in, and possibly some other languages, while my grandmother spoke a "purer" and more rural Breton. Getting back to the topic, my grandfather would call crêpes "krampuairr" (rough interpretation of the sounds into English) while my grandmother says "krampoos"; both totally different from the modern "litterary" breton "krampouezh".
Now for some interesting details: traditional buckwheat crêpes are actually extremely difficult to make because they *do not* use eggs or milk. This means the buckwheat flour-which doesn't stick together like wheat does-has to be agitated before pouring in order to remain in suspension in the liquid and not all sink to the bottom. This results in thin gray crêpe (brown where grilled) *full* of holes (formed by air bubbles when the water boils away) and with a rich and distinct buckwheat flavor. And I do mean *distinct*! Buckwheat is quite strong and rich, which works great for a really thin crêpe; it's hardy and filling even though there's basically nothing to it.
In fact, the simple ingredients (water, cheap flour made from what are basically weeds in the region, water, salt, and a bit of butter) are a dead giveaway of what this was: a basic "bread" typical of an extremely poor region*. My grandparents clearly remember it being the base of most evening meals when they were kids; usually served with a mostly-clear vegetable broth to dip in (often the broth was poured directly in "bowls" curt directly into the table-top).
Traditionally, they are served either 1) Dry and dipped in buttermilk; or 2) Covered in butter (while still piping hot, so the butter should be all melted).
This said, in places with more money, other toppings were also very common; here are a few "classics":
- Andouillette (aka. chitterling sausage… smoked pork intestine sausage)
- Ham, cheese and an egg (usually called a crêpe complète, which is like saying "the works")
- Lard (French thick-cut bacon, the kind with visible fat lines) or lardons (the traditional French bacon "bits"); sometimes with potatoes
Naturally, most crêperies now offer much more variety in terms of toppings (sausage and mustard, spinach and smoked salmon, …), but a great sign of a "real" traditional Breton crêperie will be the presence of "dry" and butter crêpes at the top of the list, and *at least* Andouillette from the list above.
My understanding is that the wheat flour crêpes are more of a naturally formed "fusion" cuisine that likely appeared either in eastern Brittany or along the coast where more wheat flour was used. Though this is just intuition, not something I've researched into. They are considered "traditional" when paired with sweet toppings (sugar, jam, chocolate/Nutella etc.) while buckwheat crêpes are basically always savory and full of butter.
*This is a bit over-simplified: the coastal parts of Brittany were actually quite rich at some points in time, especially when colonies were all the rage (both because of import/export of goods, but also-unfortunately-slavery), but the rest of Brittany was quite poor for a long time. Most Bretons did not speak French, and were often looked down upon as being crass, crude and mostly just peasant folk. There is a rich history of cultural discrimination there that I am not qualified to get into.
Thank you for sharing this
Hell yeah
@@martinn.6082 Since you dug this old post up, I'll use it as a sign to add a few juicy bits of information:
The abundance of butter in Breton cuisine is the result of an exemption from a salt tax (la Gabelle) across most of France throughout the Middle Ages; I forget the details, but some regions were annexed or joined mainland France after the law was instated, and didn't have to follow it.
Now you'll ask: what does this have to do with butter?
Well, salted butter can be kept, transported, and sold a lot more easily. So at a much cheaper price (this tax was massive in the rest of France, making salt about 20× more expensive than in Britany), meaning butter became a much more common, and reliable business. So Bretons had tons of affordable salted butter to use in their cooking.
For this reason, you will often hear French people from Breton origin sneer at anyone who uses unsalted butter… and then turn around and absolutely drown anything they cook in oodles of salted butter.
So yeah, crêpes with a lot of salted butter. They're pure bliss, and I would highly recommend the experience.
While everyone is talking about the swedish "not pancake", I will talk about the french one ! Galette is usually made just with buckweat flour, salt and water, sometimes an egg but no necessarily. No milk !
So the color is much darker and it is very different of a crêpe ! And most of the time, it is only eaten with savory food :) for the sweat, you really go for a crêpe (witch is really the same as the russian one)
But really great video and quality content !!! I just discovered your channel and I love it!!
Thank you !!! I was looking for this comment !
He did say most of this. Besides adding milk to the recipe instead of water, he did all the things you suggested. And milk instead of water is purely a preference thing when it comes to pancakes. Pancake recipes will usually work with either, it's just that ones made using milk will have a richer flavour. Perhaps not necessary with a galette, I'm not sure.
Yeah is dosa it's not an pancake nevertheless I was happy about it why are Swedes hating him so much for no reason
@@KindredBrujah and as milk contains fat, one could add a bit (more) of fat when using water. That's what I am doing.
@@hanno8705 Indeed, that would work fine also.
Damn, the Swedes are throwing a fit over the raggmunk. And while I agree, I understand why Andong did it. Swedish pancake is basically the same as the Russian blini, so if he replace it with raggmunk, he would have only done the blin.
He could have done a ugnspannkaka.
@@emanuelstude4912 Maybe went to one with stuff in it, like meats and sausage. But Ugnspankaka is not really a pancake either.
I see a bunch of Swedes upset but no explanation of how it's not a pancake. It's literally a little flat cake cooked in a pan?
@@G0rgar By that definition, omelettes and tortilla are pamcakes right?
Which I mean sure. The problem is that every swede who hear pancake think of pannkaka, not raggmunk. Some might think oven pancake but never raggmunk. Its a bit like calling a whaffle a pancake. Stretch definitions a bit and it qualifies. But it sure as hell wasn't what anyone expected.
Its also not as good as pannkaka :v
@@RezEverday Tortilla is made from a kneeded dough, it's bread not a cake and I don't think I really need to point out the difference between an omelet and a cake. waffle is for sure in a gray area, but uh, no pan I guess? It might not be your favorite variety of Swedish pancake but it's still a pancake.
With the raggmunk you usually have some bacon type meat and lingonberry jam. That's what you'd get in a restaurant
Katyte__ mau pig flesh usually we have.
You would absolutely LOVE the dutch pannenkoekenhuizen (Pancake houses). These are restaurants fully devoted to pancakes. Each house has their own secret batter. Here you can get German style pancakes, sometimes with a little bit of fermentation. But you can order it with whatever you want in or on it. Dutch cheese & ham. Ham & pineapple. Blueberry. Sometimes mixed in with the batter, sometimes on top of the batter, sometimes added after baking it. The whole experience of a pancake house is amazing, like visiting your grandmother.
Hey Andong, not sure if you'll see this but I wanted to correct a few things regarding the Canjeero (pronounced "Anjero")
1 - Anjero does not have Teff flour. People usually assume Anjero and Injera (Ethiopian) have the same/similar ingredients - but Anjero is traditionally made with Maize, Wheat Flour and some rare cases...Buckwheat.
2 - While we do eat Anjero like a pancake (honey, butter, sesame oil), I wouldn't really class it a "pancake". Technically, you can class it as a pancake, as it doesn't have the substantial texture of the Injera - but if you ask a Somali what a "Somali pancake" is...they would immediately reply Malawax (Malawah). Malawah is actually very similar to the Russian Blintz and the British pancake. I guess the one difference is that Malawah has no oil or butter incorporated into the dough, however - unlike the Blintz, you fry it in a fair amount of oil or clarified butter to get a crispy bottom and a spotty top.
Both Anjero and Malawah can be eaten sweet or savoury...
I would love a video on the different types of spiced tea, so many variations like Yemeni, Indian, Somali and even the westernised "Chai Latte".
I love this comment!
Thanks on behalf one of our traditional food. He need a Somali chef to help him out about our food.
Swedish, Norwegian and Danish pancakes are the same and remind more of the Russian pancakes, though we melt the butter on the pan
Pancakes in the Netherlands are also made the same
We do them too in Germany
Sweden too
Norway and Denmark too Kappa
it’s usually called european style pancakes
Guys, he didn’t say raggmunk was a pancake, he just said it's based around a pancake-like batter, which is true. As for the apple jam, yes lingon is the traditional pairing, which he also mentioned and he said that as a german he likes it with apple sauce. Ta det lungt alla, raggmunk är skitgott oavsett vad man har det med!

Thank you. Everyone so mad. He defined 'pancakes' himself at the beginning of the video, and it fits his definition.

This is really interesting! Pancakes are such a versatile basic concept. Being Swedish, I've grown up mostly associating pancake with sweet flavours (jam and whipped cream is a classic, or ice cream). I usually brown my butter in the pan before pouring in my batter, which gives a really good flavour.
I've only had Ethiopian injera once but I really liked it - I'll definitely have to try the Somali version at some point. All the savoury variations look delicious!
My favourite pancake based food is probably the Chinese jianbing - it's savoury, soft, crunchy, filling, and just super delicious.
As for the "controversy": I think my fellow Swedes need to work on their English comprehension 🙄 raggmunk isn't presented as _the_ Swedish pancake, but _a style of_ Swedish pancake - which it absolutely is.
"A good old блинчик" really warmed my heart
As a guy from the northern parts of Sweden i'm having a great time reading the furious comments from the south of Sweden.
Here in the north we are mocked at for calling "pancakes" "plättar" by southern swedes, and we always have to defend our way of calling "pancakes" "plättar". For us in the northern parts, "pancakes" is what other swedes refer to as "oven pancakes" which is (as it sounds) a big pancake you bake in the oven in an oven plate.
Yes!!! In Finland we also call pancakes plättar and oven pancakes pannkaka!
I'm thinking the same thing with basically every non European dish in the world being called "curry" and laughing when we start getting up set when the same is done but with far for respect by our own
Wait, I'm from the southern half and I had no idea that you guys called them that. Where I live plättar are those slightly thicker tiny pancakes, what would you guys call those?
What? I literally live in southern Sweden and we call tunnpankakor = pankakor and ovenpancakes are ungspankaka?? Plättar are the TINY tunnpankakor, small enough to fit in your palm basically.
@@cael9078 Yup. I'm aware of that, it's a dialectal variation that's approximately crosses the Västerbotten County - south of it people call it "pannkakor/tunnpannkakor" and the smaller ones "plättar". North of it as i described "plättar" and "småplättar".
Me being a South Indian, I am impressed how good your dosa came out, I have never been able to get it so crispy.
Upvoted just for my beloved Breton co-citizens' galettes ^^
There's also another french pancake version from the southern part called "matefaim", "matafan" or "matefin" (about the same pronouciation although the first one might be the easiest one for you to decipher, it means "hungerbuster"). It is a sort of very thick pancake, so thick it could be called the lambas of pancakes.
As a dutch person I'm missing dutch pancakes
as a foodie im missing a dutch baby too
They are not very different from blini right? I would rather see Vietnamese banh xeo or korean buchimgae
@@maartenvz u bake a dutch baby
I totally agree! Dutch pancakes are great!
Pannenkoeken!!!!!
As a Venezuelan I never considered Cachapas a pancake, but here is a way easier way of making them with only 2 ingredients:
-Fresh corn
-Corn flour
Yes, a lot of corn, I know, but it's the only way it works in the US because for some reason the corn here is different, in Vzla we use more ingredients but here the corn is way sweeter and moister.
First, take the corn and add it to the blender, then gradually put the flour until it is a pancake-like consistency (not too watery). And that's it.
Gracias! I always think of cachapas as the base for a delicious lunch, with beans, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and a bit more in the veggie version. Andong, please do a more extensive dive into the world of cachapas
Somali's have a sweet pancake called malawah and the canjeero is considered more savoury as it's usually served with stews but can also be had with sesame oil (or butter) and sweet somali tea over the top.
Thank you there is two for the stubborn Ali’s and xalimos
I WAS HOPING SOMEONE WOULD SAY IT! And did you notice him change the music when he said Horn of Africa 😭
True 👏👏
Super impressed by his pancake game! 👏🏼
And it’s amazing how he nailed so many dishes of pancake type foods from around the world that are so varied and unique.
I like how he paid homage to the different corners of the globe by small things like the style of garnishing the Japanese dish with those signature lines of mayo and flakes on top, and rolling the dosas so perfectly eating them with his hands.
As a language enthusiast, I loved hearing his pronunciation of crêpe the right way!
As a pancake enthusiast, I would like to add a few of my favourites to the list for others to try:
1) The Chinese jian bing （煎饼）: a super big crêpe, cooked with a layer of egg squeegeed on top, folded up around a crispy cracker with some salty and spicy sauces. Perfect breakfast.
2) The Brazilian tapioca pancakes (beijú) with lots of melty butter.
3) The Taiwanese crêpe burrito (潤餅), filled with 2-3 ice cream scoops of different local flavours, shaved candied peanut, and cilantro (trust me, it works!)
(Also from Taiwan, the custard-stuffed pancakes are the best!)
4) My great-grandmother was from Belarus, and she would always make her palachinki with so much love at every special family meal. They are crêpes that are rolled up with a sweet cottage cheese filling, topped with whipped cream and delicious, runny thawed strawberries.
5) I’m Canadian, so I must also mention the renowned Canadian flapjack (especially my family recipe), but it HAS to be served with 100% real maple syrup (none of those imposter syrups!)
That’s all!
What are your favourite pancakes? I am always ready to add more to my list of things to try!
They are all so good!! Colorful cultures

Raggmunk requires thick bacon and lingonberry... the blasphemy of apple sauce...
Sweden has a normal pancake as well which would be almost identical to the first russian one...
I think his German is showing, as Raggmunkar are similar to German Kartoffelpuffer (as in: potato in batter), and those _are_ traditionally eaten with apple sauce.
Very interesting, there are so many types to discover! A small note: a French buckwheat galette normally uses water, not milk, as the liquid component -- milk is typically used only for crêpes.
Yeah I also noticed and that his Blin is pretty much a crêpe.
Olivier Pernet and also, the traditional recipe doesn’t have an egg in it! Just buckwheat, water and salt :)
@@SkyeNigthingale the egg helps for the beginner to cook them ;)
Also i add olive oil to my mixture
Huge pancake tour, awesome man!
Just to add my pinch of salt, I'm from Brittany where's the French galettes and crêpes are from and the difference between thoses two isn't just the flour. For galette you only use water instead of milk and usually leave the batter a bit thicker than for crêpes. Anyway thanks for all this tour.
Hahaha, I feel so bad for this guy. He made a video about how great different pancakes are, and all he gets is angry Swedes yelling at him for eating the wrong pancake xD hahahahahahaha. I liked your video, and I like how you compliment the different pancakes. You clearly love food.
There's more than 1 pancake in Sweden, and everyone argues which one is called "pancake" and what the others are and should be called....
As far as I know there's at least 3 different Swedish pancakes, I can't blame a foreigner for picking the wrong one in his video xD
Shouldn't Swedes just be happy that they got to be in the video???? Geez.
For me: the Swedish pancake is the ugnspannkaka - because I've never seen it in Norway. It tastes like a pancake but it looks different. And when my friend served blueberry pancake I was surprised when I saw it, but then I tasted it and it tasted just like a blueberry pancake should. I realized it's GENIUS, because frying 20 pancakes, one by one, in the frying pan is SO BORING. But pouring the whole patter into an oven tray and baking it is so easy.
I do love that Norway is your deciding factor there, må alltid se til den beste av oss, eller hva?
Now for s hot take for us scandinavians. A Lompe is a type of pancake
This actually proves that there are very friendly Germans getting yelled at by other supposedly "friendlier" cultures. 😄

elevate that indian dosa with some sambar on the side. It'll be out of this world :)
Sorry but you're comment won't reach to him cause everyone is complaining about Swedish "" pancakes ""
Bruh the original dose of Karnataka were served ONLY with groundnut and coriander chutney(I'm from Karnataka)...sambhar came into the picture only when tamilians took the dose recipie back to their state. So yeah... chutney would be the OG accompaniment.(I like to dip my dosa in chutney AND sambhar together btw😊)
@rajgoyal Yes, you are right. But dosa was served with sambhar only when it left Karnataka.
Why don't they know about malpua, an actualy sweet pancake we also have :(
@@insaimp the whole concept of pancakes is the use of pans for making them, so i guess a chila or a dosa is a pancake by definition, whereas malpuas are fried and dipped in syrup, closer to a deflated donut I'd say
Dosa is being slept on in Germany. It’s so damn good and a vegetarian dream food. Plus it’s great if you’re trying to save some money.
In a pinch red lentils can be subbed for the urad daal.

@@CyberMachine that sucks, I live in india and in the state that it was invented at and in a medium priced restaurant its abt 1 usd and even cheaper if its street food but i woudn't eat from most street food places. I eat it almost everyday for breakfast. It really shoudn't be expensive at all.
@@lydia6711 It's like $6 here. If it was $1 I would eat it literally every single day it's that good
@@CyberMachine probably because some of the lentils may not be locally available.
@@CyberMachine You can make it at home its pretty cheap to make and also keeps well in the fridge, for a week or so. Just make sure to not eat it when it becomes really sour.
Yo Don Antonio, I'm Venezuelan, your rendition of the cachapa is a solid 7/10.
You need more cheese (a lot more, btw, queso de mano is just a different shape for mozzarella, they gro through the same process, except queso de mano is primarily cow milk instead of buffalo) and a huge dollop of salty creme fraiche on top. We call it nata.
Cachapa is supposed to be sweet, so feel free to add more sugar if the corn is not sweet enough. I found that wheat flour helps with the elasticity of the dough (helps in the folding process) a lot better than harina pan (which is not the same as Masa, masa is nixtamalized, while harina pan is pre-cooked).
If you have any specific questions I'm happy to share more!

@@appa609 no, but splurge and live a little!
My kids poor like twice that much syrup on one pancake 😂.
The proper way to put syrup on American pancakes is to place a small amount on the plate and cover with the first pancake. Top with butter and some more syrup. Add next pancake, top again with some butter and syrup and continue until have a stack of at least 3 and up to 5. Then pour syrup on the top of the stack until it runs off and down the sides.

We also love to put some butter before the cheese 😁🙈 omg my mouth is watering!
Hahaha, so many Swedish people upset, including me ^^. But kind of upset with a big smile on my face. Amazing video, and your Raggmunkar were great, even though served weirdly by them selves without bacon and apple sauce instead of lingon berry. Your pronounciation was pretty much spot on too. Just so you understand that all this "complaining" is not to be taken to seriously, I am subscribing after watching only one of your videos. You are a natural behind the camera and the whole thing was so well produced with professional sound and video. Amazing!
In Philippines we have shrimp pancakes called "okoy/ukoy".
Usually comprised of a batter with
-constarch
-all purpose flour
-egg
-salt
-pepper
-and water for consistency (should be a smooth silky batter)
Then add the shrimps to the batter (tiny shrimps are used and also do not remove the shells, this helps with the crispiness of the dish)
This is to be cooked pan fried and served with vinegar (some add garlic to the vinegar)
I love the Dosas and Okonomiyaki Pancakes too, but I miss the Chinese scallion pancakes. Make a second pancake video, please
Well they wouldn't fit into the definition of the pancakes he is using, since they are made out of kneaded dough rather than poured batter.
Maybe it's something more like the Korean Pajeon (파전)?
@@HidingAllTheWay ?? I thought they didn't need any kneading? I hope we have the same definition of Chinese scallion pancake?

The dutch are really interesting when it comes to pancakes.
I mean they eat them sweet or savory, they make em with different kinds of flour and they even have restaurants just dedicated to the flat dish ^^
I mean ...... it's really the same in France actually.
You have two types : Crêpe and Galette, both made slightly differently and with different tastes, with Galette being generally preferred for dishes (probably the most recognisable one is served with eggs, cheese and lard and/or mushroom, both is best but you can have only one of either if you prefer) whereas crêpes are better used for the dessert (but it can still work perfectly for a main dish of course, it is slightly more sugary than a galette but it isn't a big deal at all and can even work wonders, just avoid galettes with sugary treats it works way less that way) and we also have dedicated restaurants for these called crêperies and ....... honestly that's probably one the places where you want to go as a child, there's nothing better than it for kids in my opinion and I am sure that most French people that would stumble upon here would have fond recollections of their time in one of those when they were young

No fluffy souffle pancakes? Btw as a South Indian and huge fan of dosas, that dosa looked legit . We usually add salt and baking soda to batter but your's still looked superb. Next time you make them spread a thin layer of red chilli chutney (blend together 2-4 red chillies depending on your taste, 4-5 garlic cloves, two tablespoons of roasted Bengal gram, a teaspoon of tamarind, a quarter cup of chopped onions or shallot, bit of salt and just enough water to make a puree) on the surface before adding the potato masala.
Sounds great, thanks!! btw I did add baking soda and salt, as you mentioned :)
My family is from Trinidad and dosa and chutney is a classic. I love tamarind sauce on everything, like mty paratha.

Any kind really. You just need the fat to not make it super dry. We use sunflower or whatever we have at home. Some use olive oil. Whatever you have works great with it.
@@muddi117 Oh, so you're adding it to the batter, not pouring it over as a seasoning?

Dude did an amazing job with the Dosa for someone who's never made it before. It looked super tasty
Edit: that Okonomiyaki looks awesome as well
French speaking here, your galette doesn't look like one. The buckwheat should have colored the pancake more than that. My receipe is 330g of buckwheat flour, 750g of water, a looottt of salt, one egg and some butter. And it's traditionnally eaten with emmental, ham and and egg as a topping. But in fact your can eat almost anything salty in it. The galette is a lot different than crêpe. I think you had wheat mixed with buckwheat that's why you find them similar while they are not.
Galette sure can be eaten with any savoury filling, but it's also great with sweet ones. Like butter/sugar/lemon is kind of amazing. Excellent as the last couple of galettes to finish the meal after 2 or 3 complete ones (ham, egg, cheese, tomatoes, mushrooms, whatever vegetable you want really) and a couple more simple ham and cheese.
Lol, this isn't a galette. IT'S FUCKING NOT A GALETTE.
I was also surprised how light it is in colour but I think here in France we use mostly less processed Buckwheat flour than they do in Anglo countries. And I've always thought of the creamed spinach, cheese and egg as the more traditional way to serve it. Ham + Emmenthal always struck me as a galette adaptation of the classic sandwich. Add in the egg and it's a Croque Madame in a galette X-D
The journey doesn't stop here! I'd recommend trying the Vietnamese savory crepe, Banh Xeo. The batter a very thin one consisting of rice flour (though some people use blended soaked rice) colored with turmeric speckled with scallion greens, with a liquid component of either water or beer. The method of cooking is as follows: fry thinly sliced pork and shrimp that has optionally been pre-seasoned in your pan. When the meats are halfway cooked, pour over your batter and lay some mung bean sprouts over the center where you will fold it. Cover and fry until the bottom is crispy, then fold and plate. Consume by tearing off pieces and wrapping with lettuce, herbs of choice (mint and perilla especially), assorted fresh vegetables (especially cucumber), and dip in a dressing of fish sauce, sugar, water, lime juice, minced garlic, and minced birds eye chilies.
That sounds amazing!
When Dosa can qualify as a pancake, you could definitely include appam and addai.
I was surprised when you went with Anjero instead of Malawah and I was even more surprised when you used yeast because I’ve never seen Anjero made that way. But I’m still really glad Somalia was in this video and I really wanna test this recipe now.
Darling! Geil.
So “raggmunk” (singular) or “raggmunkar” (plural) both sing and plural form goes, are done and served with bacon and lingonberries in the land of Schweden. It’s a less popular dish today but it’s around, most of the hardcore fans are likely seniors.
I’m convinced, some of our ancestors moved here just to farm 🐷 🐖 🤣
Raggmunkar also a great example of the important use of balancing ingredients - flavours - textures in the traditional Swedish cuisines, tart berries, fatty salty bacon, potatoes - together. While being frugal, seasonal and not wasting anything.
sweden.se/culture-traditions/raggmunk/
The Swedish people, we, usually mean this dish when we speak of “pancakes” or “pannkakor” (Swedish word)
slightly thicker than creeps and served with strawberry or other choice of jam and whipped cream. I preferred the version called “plättar” as a kid.
www.swedishfood.com/swedish-food-recipes-desserts/244-panncake-torte
I am a young Swede, and I make raggmunkar perhaps 2-3 times a month when potatoes are cheap at the store and I bulk up on potatoes at home. Also ugnspannkaka is super common, and most families eat this at least once a month, with bacon and lingonberry jam. Down in Skåne (Southern of Sweden), we have something called "äggkaka" (or "äggakaga" in dialectal Scanian) which is similar to the "ugnspannkaka" but with double the egg, so it's a bit spongier, and also it's cooked directly in a cast iron pan, also with bits of bacon in it and lingonberry jam.
Tom G crêpes arent swedish, But swedish pancakes are similar to crêpes☺️
Raggmunkar are super popular among school children too
@KampKarl well we call them crêpes becuase it's not like our rugular pancakes that are more like the blini but also not like raggmunkar and it'a not the exact same as crêpes either.
So in sweden we have something called ugnspannkaka, oven pancake. So your definition doesn't really work I'm afraid :(
also, american pancakes are closer in consistency and ingredients as a regular pound cake. It's basically just pound cake batter poured in a frying pan.
