Russian German descendant here - My Grandmother was born in the Dakotas and I am thrilled to hear the names of these recipes said outloud on video! It reminds me of my childhood and cooking w grandma!
I love that, even though the government took great measures to get rid of the German language especially after the first world war, people never forgot where they came from. Coming from a German, I wish I will be able to visit ND at some point in my life. :-)
My German family came from Russia and came to Fresno CA where they had a grape vinyard for many years. My mother made pickled beets. She was a great German cook. Uncle had a deli and made all those German sausages .
This is awesome!! My grandmother was born in North Dakota and her father immigrated with his parents from Kandel, South Russia (now Ukraine) to Emmons county. Though she spoke English, she did have an accent. She also made a potato bread that I absolutely loved as a child. It was like a cake doughnut but I don't think it was fried. I never learned to make it and she didn't use a recipe, she just knew it by heart. Haven't had it for years!!
Even though these people don't use my native language anymore, it's amazing to see that their behaviour and mannerisms are still so very german. Greetings from Bavaria!
@@magnificent6668 yes I knew that, thanks for mentioning it but, but it's my understanding as well, that german-culture hot-spots have become scarce in the US by now. That's why I found it remarkable that the folks of this programme reminded me a lot of my fellow countrymen, just by the way they are..
Geotropa...German was the main language for the older folks & remained so up through the 1970's. German spoken at home, church, among friends & socially. The last generation or two finds it dying out.
I'm of Germans from Russia heritage. The traditions never die. It is a shame, however, that the language was not passed down... my family immigrated from Ukraine (black sea region) to North Dakota in the early 1900s
Love this. I'm from a German Russian Mennonite area of Central Kansas and they make a similar recipe called Verenika and they serve them with delicious creamy ham gravy. Heavenly. I don't think theirs have any onion. A German buffet meal of these Mennonite foods will also have the best smoked sausage which is baked, green bean soup if green beans, potatoes, ham, Summer savory and a little cream. So good. Also, some other foods like zwieback, and fabulous bonne berogi. Might be misspelled. Pastry stuffed with sweet bean mixture and served in a bowl of sweet cream sauce. So good. And, we also have bierocks. A piece of rolled bread dough filled with browned ground beef, onion, cabbage, salt and plenty of pepper. Delicious!
What you call bierock, we called runza. A big fav in my family. It was the way to use all the left over beef. Lots of cabbage and onions, salt and pepper.
@georgekashuba1656 these Mennonites came through several migrations to different countries and may have lived in the Ukraine or lived in that part of Russia before coming to Central Kansas. They brought hard red Winter wheat with them which is why Ksnsas is called The Wheat State. All I know is the history is they came to Germany or Prussia, then Russia before coming to America. I saw that Ukraine was then called South Russia. They have the most delicious food.
What a joy to see the different foods other German/Russian people like myself make. My anscestors from Molutchna Ukraine ended up in Nebraska. I hope I get to N Dakota someday. Thank you for making this video!
I really, really enjoyed this video and saved it to watch again and write down the recipes and directions. Thank you to all the women (and men) who made it.
Lots of those recipes that are made here, I’m still cooking today, but are called different, for instants the cheese bottoms we call them verenika, great with smoked farmer sausage and cream gravy, the stirrum we called it ree-egg, it is great with watermelon and cantaloupe 😊
Buttons?? That’s veriniki! No onions inside. You drop cooked veriniki into a skillet with diced onion. You cook the extra dough after they boil into the onion skillet. Keelkia! I might have spelled that wrong because I have never seen it written. Grew up near Inman, KS.
My great grandparents were the same as that lady described, always cried but for their entire life, always wanting to go back to Russia but could never afford it...America was never home for them like Russia was and they always longed for it until the day they passed away 😢
Crimea does sound like a great place to live with the temperatures being the way she said they are. Well that lard looks as though it didn't hurt her any.
Many of them here write and translate some words in German completely wrong. Since I am able to speak English as well as German and Dutch, I notice that mistakes have crept in over the years.What I also notice is that Mettwürste, whether smoked or just dried, are favorites there. But many sausages are much, much finer than the coarse sausages where something gets stuck between the teeth.

Did you know that there are more Germans in the USA than in Germany? It's the biggest ethnic group in the US, then the English.

We have to preserve all these small towns in America. They ought to be cherished
I enjoyed seeing the foods of my childhood again. I'm still making many of them!
I’m from Wisconsin , ancestors from Germany . Daughter and her husband have a home in Ashley, ND . Good kuchen made there

Vereniki is a Ukrainian word and the Russian word is plimeni.

They made a cookbook and it’s awesome!

Rolakoka is what we ate with watermelon on Sunday for faspa. Cottage cheese in verinika- yes!
I may have just found my cup of tee! I have a Russian Mennonite/Low German background and I can see myself really enjoying your channel!!!
Lard is healthier than seed oils.
This was wonderful, thank you so much!
thank you, great recipes, very similar to what we had at home, placinda is my childhood favorite

I love beets, maybe I will try this. My man will have to go golfing he don't like them at all.
