Big ups for watching the video.
Love Serbia and Serbian people.
Good people can't make bad food.
I see that you are satisfied with my proposal, greetings from Sinisa from Zemun, Serbia. And as for rakija, it is the soul of every Serb from the moment they are born, when they are baptized, when they are celebrated, when something is celebrated and when someone dies, a little rakija is always drunk for the soul!
Thank you for suggesting. This was a very informative video about the food. Did not know so many cheeses were made there. I love cheese.
You are a wonderful man who recognized the beauty of the unique country of Serbia!!!
Serbia was biggest plum producer in Europe up to wars in 1990s. Even now we are one of 5 top producers in world
Plum rakija (sljivovica) is in Serbia most common because great abundance of plums. It can be commom( soft-meka 40%) or double and triple destilated (hard-prepek 50- 70%). However the most valued and expensive brandies in Serbia are fruit brandies, especially viljamovka (pear brandy), dunja (quince brandy) and kajsija (apricot brandy), but holy grail of serbian rakia (and vine) are made in Serbian Orthodox monasteries by monks and are known as MANASTIRSKA. As a foreigner, you may be able to try it, but it is unlikely that you will be able to buy it, because traditionally this brandy is not sold but given as a sign of gratitude and friendship.There are also small distilleries where you can find incredibly good brandies with various mixtures of fruits, herbs and honey,
Lastly, you must come to Serbia and be hosted by village communities in order to observe and enjoy how tgey go about their food handling.
Respect Mr and Serbia from Romania
Mr Giant ❤, you are good man,❤ God bless you. Please come visit Serbia❤
Браво ! Брате Добро дошао! Увек у Србији позитивци Добро дошли Легендо!
Thank you Mr.Giant,you should come to Serbia,always welcome.♥
I love you, man! ❤ from Serbia
Small correction. According to DNA research in this area, the Serbs did not come in the sixth century, but are the original inhabitants of this area. The matching of haplogroup I2a1 of the remains from Vinca and the current inhabitants of Serbia is about 50% or more. And a lot of historical data confirms that thesis. The difference between the current official history and this information is a long story and highly controversial and perhaps for another occasion.
Genome research with such results as you mention simply does not exist.
This is your romantic story.
Any links to this so called research? People publish papers when they do research and put them online.
True, we are natives here.
@@Forevertrue-z2w I mean the official narrative is not that different, a plague ravages the Balkans, and slavs migrate in almost empty land. Obviously from shared DNA with vinca people they rebuild the region together.
@@fungitorix haplogroup I2a1 is in all probability the only original European haplogroup according to the EU DNA research. Serbs and Bosnian Serbs have between 37%- 60% of that DNA. Other Europeans have it but in much less %, between 4%- 9%. Go research the EU haplogroup findings, Google it.
Fun fact Serbia is the only country i. The world that makes a Donkey cheese, and it is also the most expensive cheese in the world over 1000 euros which is like 1200 dollars for 1 kg which is 2 Ibs
The larger plum is for eating, and the smaller plum called POŽEGAČA is used for baking brandy. At the same time, it goes through the brandy roasting process twice, in order to eliminate METHYL ALCOHOL, which is harmful, and ETHYL ALCOHOL remains. Brandy baked in this way is called PREPEČENICA. It is officially sold as standard with a strength of 42% ALCOHOL. However, in the countryside, specifically in the area famous for BRANDY made from plums, a strength of 55-60% ALCOHOL is made.My father once made brandy in the countryside and it was 60%. It had an extraordinary taste, but very strong. You could only drink a very small glass of BRANDY.
RAKIJA made from plums is called ŠLJIVOVICA (synonym is PREPEČENICA, which means that it has been baked twice. In restaurants somewhere they sell SOFT RAKIJA, WHICH HAS ONLY BEEN ROASTED ONCE, WHICH SMELLS A LOT AND IS HARMFUL, GIVES HEADACHE DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF METHYL ALCOHOL WHICH IT IS POISON FOR THE ORGANISM. SOFT BRANDY IS MILDER, I THINK 20-30% alcohol.

Thank you for sharing.

Beeing socalled "3. World country" is God's blessing in disguise ❤😂
True.
Agree!
hello respect Welcome to the Republik Serpska
Mr Giant, the people of Serbia are trying their best to produce quality food, genetically authentic and organic. They are also very informed on organic vs modified, on additives and chemicals that they try avoid at all times. Eash settlement yas its own farmer's market where people buy fresh daily quantities of raw food and then prepare them.
The fridges in homes are very small because they like freshly prepared each day.
This is only part of the food and drinks that are prepared in Serbia. People who visit Serbia leave here full of wonderful memories and even fuller bellies.
For complete enjoyment, you should visit the rural areas and try the food prepared by the hosts.
When it comes to brandy, brandy is not only made from plums, it is also made from quince, apricot, apple, pear, grape. Serbia may not be known for its wine, but the native grape varieties that are grown here give exceptional pleasure to the palates of wine connoisseurs.
And the food? Well, it's hard to describe in words, in general, Serbs eat quite spicy food, where the basis is mostly based on meat.
All I can do is invite you to come visit Serbia and the entire region and enjoy our hospitality. Greetings from Serbia.
Spicy food, now that got my attention. I am fom the soice ilse in the Caribbean.
@@MrGiant Serbian cuisine, and that of the entire Balkans, is specific. There are some autochthonous dishes, but most of the dishes were brought from the north from German cuisine, from the south of Greece and Turkey, in the coastal areas, a strong influence of Mediterranean cuisine.
Many dishes are originally from those regions, but people from these areas changed them in part and created something that is more suitable for our climate.
Volio bih da ovo što ću sada napisati prevedeš nije sva hrana ljuta mi volimo ljuto ali ni to nije toliko ljuto ka naprimer meksička hrana a ako neželiš ljuto u bilo kom restoranu ili domaćinstvu to nećeš ni dobiti tako da zbog toga se nemoraš sikirati a volio bih da dođeš i da probaš sve jer stvarno je sve ukusno i mislim da Srbiju ne što je moja svako treba iskusiti i neće se pokajati veliki pozdrav za velikog čovjeka
Try AJVAR, which is made from ROASTED RED PEPPERS and EGGPLANTS. There is HOT and MILD AJVAR.
It is similar to PINDŽUR - (PEPPER and TOMATO.).
Ajvar is prepared much more often than Pindžur, although Pindžur is, according to many, tastier than Ajvar. It is probably a matter of tradition, that Ajvar is made more often. ONCE YOU TRY AJVAR, YOU WILL ALWAYS EAT IT.
KAJMAK is tastier than CHEESE. In the process of processing cow's cheese, it is removed from the surface of the cheese and stored in a special container. There is YOUNG (20% milk fat) and OLD CREAM (up to 70% milk fat)....etc...etc...
Come to Serbia. Everyone who comes is pleasantly surprised. Everything is completely different than you were lied to on television.
@@MrGiant
Једино што могу да додам је да је АЈВАР од чисте паприке много укуснији и квалитетнији (по мом скромном мишљењу), јер се патлиџан (као намирница неутралног укуса) додаје искључиво да би се добило на крајњој количини, тј да би се добило више ајвара са мање паприке.. читав процес печења и љуштења паприке је дуг, тежак и мукотрпан, па се онда прибегава додавању плавог патлиџана ради уштеде времена и смањења обима посла..
Али чист ајвар од 100% паприке је божанска намирница..
Ајвар као ајвар је сам по себи феноменалан, и са додатком патлиџана, али 100% папррика је лудница..
За кајмак се слажем... АПСОЛУТНО..
Као и за гостопримство Срба.. то нам је у ДНК..
I will talk about brandy. It is our national drink.. But books can be written about brandy. Brandy is an alcoholic drink made from fruit (from plum - šljivovica, from pear - viljemovka, from apple - jabukovača, from peach - breskovača, from apricot - kajsijevača, quince - dunjevača, from drena - drenovača, even from grapes - loza) And no be fooled. Not a single brandy is not sweet. The percentage of alcohol varies. The unit of measure for the percentage of alcohol is degrees or degrees from (~ 31 to over 50 degrees). We call weaker brandies "soft", and there are also toasted brandies (brandy that is thermally processed twice and is very strong). Also. there are white and yellow brandy (colorless and golden-yellow), and the color depends on the way of storage and preservation - if the brandy is stored in glass bottles, it is transparent, colorless (white brandy), and if it is stored in wooden barrels, the brandy acquires color in depending on which wood the barrels were made from. The best brandy is made from plums, from which the pits are removed before fermentation.
One of the rarest brandies is šljivovica made from prunes. I had the rare pleasure of trying it in a monastery... it's ambrosia... an inimitable taste.Some people put medicinal herbs or the root of special plants in šljivovica and thus make brandy with a specific taste.
However... my favorites are quince brandy and dren-brandy (dren is a small berry that grows like a weed and has an amazing sweet and sour taste.
But, brandies have a very sharp taste, are not sweet and have incredible aromas and bouquets.
However, sweet drinks are also made from brandy ... fruits (cherries, pears, etc.) are added to the finished brandy with sugar and this is how fruit liqueurs are made ... mostly quite sweet). That's all for now ... I can't even begin to talk about Serbian cuisine ... I would talk a lot ... for many days 😍🤣
In short ... our brandies are the best in the world ... better than any whiskey, cognac or vodka 🤩
Thabnk you for sharing. Have a great day.
Plums are very sweet and have a strong flavor. They pick them, put them in the barrel, let sugar ferment and distil alcohol. It's very harsh.
I bet it is, but would still try it for the eperience.
@@MrGiant that would be super easy if you have people who came from Serbia, in the neighborhood or if there is Serbian community in the town, cause they always have ethnic food and drinks and are glad to share.
Serbia have best food
Soul food for soul people.
Thank You.
You're welcome
Rakija is honestly rough but love it I normally one shot the drink its anywhere from 40%- to like 70% in the stronger versions as soon as you smell it you know its strong but some people enjoy sipping away at it, i'm sure there is versions of sweet ones but its mainly strong visited family in Bosnia ( serb section) the plums were made and you drink it for Good health or get rid of a cold or whatever.
These plums are kind of subspecies of the plums you know, they are smaller and have an oval shape and they are very sweet
It's tangy plum. Now good rakija (usually homemade) is not harsh, you should feel the warmth in stomach not burning in the throat. Cheaply made industrial one is bad and burns the throat. It's a whole culture Rakija is in Serbia
You MUST visit Serbia. You won't go back home. Trust me.
It is sweet plum
I'm from a little town called Pirot. We have many food manifestations and are very famous for our yellow cheese which was regular on the USA presidents menu. We also have a delicacy callled" peglana kobasica", no aditives .Check out my town if you will☺️But be shure to type Pirot, Serbia , cause there's one Pirot in Belgium. Today I' m preparing a meal with forest mushrooms👌
Thankyou for commenting. I will check out this town. I am about to start reacting to small towns in Serbia to get a better understanding of the traditions and culture.
@@MrGiant That's great. Though Belgrade is our capital, it cannot give you much insite into our tradition and culture
I love your videos. Is there a video explaining your big interest in Serbia as I see a lot of content dealing with Serb stuff.
I do not have one. I am interesting in all the countries in that region. Not a lot is known about them. I will have to make a video of how I became interested in Serbia soon.
@@MrGiant You are one brave guy wanting to know about the Balkans. This is the place of mistery where people cry when happy and sing when sad. Good luck to you brother.
Thank you for bringing us a bit of Grenada life, sound and chiodhood memories
mr giant respect, in serbia the production of mmo food is prohibited by law, also the import of modified food is considered a criminal offense, i think this is the reason why foreigners who come to serbia have so many positive opinions.
Thank you for sharing.
I clicked here to see Pljeskavica 😂 what is this ??
Greetings from Belgrade ❤😊
You can buy these products also in big cities because there are farmermarkets in every city,
Serbia had largest number of plum trees in the world until just recently when China overtook them.
They don't show much on videos but soup was always essential for lunch before the main meal. Up North they used to eat pasta at least once a week and tomato soup was essential. Tomato soup or vegetable soup was also eaten when knedle (gomboce) or taske were for lunch. I used to think that Serbs invented pasta for lunch or for main meal. I still believe it is possible but Italians made it popular and possibly they ate it more. According to a German who visited a friend in Italy, they eat past for breakfast, lunch and dinner but in Serbia pasta is eaten only in one meal. For dinner, lots of cheese and milk and whatever else.
Come to Serbia 🇷🇸
Serbia has some of the best dishes in the world simple but full of flavour. Easy to make also only their cakes the tortes can be difficult . The liquor made from plums is super strong Hard to handle but the aroma the smell is beautiful it is strong and smooth.
Love Serbian food ❤️💙🤍
rakia taste robust not sweet, a little bit fruty on a nose, very strong... from plums, apples, guince, apricot... there some of variants that are dark and densely, from walnuts, sour cheery, blackbery... and they can be sweet on top of other tastes. ziveli!!! :) 🌄🍎🍐🍒🫐🍇🌞🎶🎻 merak! in oak barrel! 💚
Thank you for sharing.
Alcohol made from plums has a hard taste to it, it's like drinking fire... But alcohol "Rakija" made from other types of fruits like pear, etc usually has a touch of sweetness to it...
Rakija is noy made only from plumbs, it is made from all sorts of fruits and every have an unique flavor, how harsh it would be depends how long it stays in the barrels, also barrels affect the color and flavor. Cheap ones mass produced are the harshest and artificial in taste. Homemade ones can be really strong in alcohol content, but are areomatic. We say good rakija should not scratch the thorat but warm the belly. It is something like Serbian whiskey, quince one is my favorite, it is very aromatic and fruity, smell great and it is really easy to drink. There are some mixed fruit ones, then double fermented ones and so on, those liquerish , mixed with honey, chestynuts, hazelnut extraxts , even with truffles, since Serbia is rich with truffles they are not as expensive as in the US. But the most famous are plumb, grape, apricot and apple
Truffles not expensive hahahhaah....and where can we bought them??? In which market???

Love the videos man keep it up its 1:40am in serbia right now and im up watching ur videos. To awnser ur question plums are sweet but the sweetness of rakija depends on how much sugar u add into it (every household has its own recepie) and from what fruit it was made. Its a hard drink its usually between 40 and 50% alcohol, its strong and u drink it from shot glasses and it can be made from many different fruit. Personally my favorite is made from quince (we call it dunja) but the plum one is the most iconic.
Thank you for watching with me. Personnaly I would like to try all the different fuit flavours.
@@MrGiant ❤
RAKIJA (eng. BRANDY is made from PLUM is the most popular, but it is tastiest from APRICOT (the sweetest) and from PEAR. (it's called VILIJAMOVKA, a variety of pears, which is one of the most valued for eating because of its taste)@@MrGiant
Батице, мислим да много грешиш.. У процесу производње јаких алкохолних пића- строго је забрањено додавати шећер..
То чак и моји сељаци у селу знају.. од кад знам за себе(а имам 45 година), нико ни у лудилу не жели да пије "шећерушу" како је погрдно зову.. консултуј литературу проф. др. Нинослава Никићевића (јединог доктора којег Србија има у области жестоких пића, што мислим да је срамота) ако мислиш да нисам у праву..
Истина је, постојало је у неким уџбеницима и стручној литератури из 50-60их година прошлог века неки податак да је дозвољено додавање 2-3% шећера у ком, али је то превазиђено одавно јер је сада познато да то негативно утиче на квалитет ракије и разне фракције алкохола који се у њој налазе..
Додавање шећера искључиво служи да би се добило на количини и изгубило на квалитету ракије..
Између осталог- то је један од разлога зашто пијем ИСКЉУЧИВО своје ракије, притом пијем око 2,5л седмично сам.. Богу хвала, у подруму има нешто преко три тоне- шљиве, крушке, лозе, кајсије, дуње и трешње..😉
The plums themselves are sweet. Rakija is not its so strong that it's not sweet. But you can make rakija from anything. From plums (sljiva on Serbian) is sljivovaca from honey (med) medovaca from wallnuts (orah) orahovaca and it doesn't stop from apples from apricots anything U just gotta know how!
Rakija is type of brandy, the one made they are mostly not sweet, even though there is some variations that are mixed with honey. It is strong drink, like votka or tequila, but if I’m not wrong, even stronger. It is tough to get used to it if you are not from Balkan, but once you do, there is no better alcoholic drink in the world. It is a deep part of a culture here. Literally if you are invited to drink it in someone’s household, you must not decline it, it is almost an insult 😄 one interesting fact, and let’s call it an advice, if you drink real homemade rakija, you can drink it a lot, but drink it with a lot of water as a side drink, and you wont have a headache tomorrow or be hangover. That advice is free of charge, you are welcome 😂
I will keep that in mind when I try it. Lol.
You have different types of plums all are sweet but from every have different rakija with different properties taste
Svako "Onaj" koji nama priđe kao prijatelj,može samo još više da uzrasta ka Bogu"-Pozdrav!
Rakija is harsh burn but good quality rakija sljivovica don't burn till come in stomach then make brr and you feel sweat break on your head

Dear brother Mr. Giant, come to Serbia.
Best,food,in,the,world.srbia
this is a very old promo video that caters to western tourists, it doesn't show the beauty of serbian cuisine which is gastronomically very simple and mostly meat based, promo is supposed to be pretty, I recommend if you can to visit Serbia just for food, you won't be disappointed, I think "soul food" is the best way to describe it
U vezi sira iz Sjenice i kupivine ..
Ja živimu Novom Sadu, daleko od Sjenice, ali na našim pijacama, što bi vi zvali farmer market , mogu svaki dan da kupim sjenički sir i zlatiborski, ljudi donose svoje proizvode u velike gradove, jer mi cenimo njihov kvalitet i želimo da ih platimo.. I naravno, znamo da ih prepoznamo. Dobra domaćica u Srbiji obično svo povrće kuouje na pijaci, ne u supermarketu, i to od ljudi koje poznaje. Krompir iz Ivanjice, beli luk iz Seleuša, šargarepa iz Mola, takve stvari. Mo volimo hranu i poštujemo ceo proces.
I am excited to try your cheese, just the name of it sounds so delicious.

What a bunch of incorrect information😂😂
In Serbia, we make brandy from almost any fruit, especially plums. Each brandy has the taste of the fruit it is made from, quince, sour cherry, apple, gooseberry, watermelon, melon, apricot, peach...but plum is still our pride. Fun fact. In the 1950s, Pirot's kackavalj was brought to the White House by the American president, who regularly ate it.
Brandy=RAKIJA
Here we drink rakija cold, like a shut, but on winter we cook it with sugar and a little sugar! That we call Serbian tea!
