As a Spaniard, I’m so excited to see this video! I love how respectful Grace is and how she takes the time to research the country and culture. I appreciate how hard she tries to make things right. Yes, she got the paella wrong, but to be fair a lot of Spanish people get it wrong as well! The most important thing is that she had fun making this video and enjoyed the food ☺️
@@VASIGTravelingLifeinLondon Hey Vasi! Im not Spanish but I am Mexican and thought I’d correct your Spanish so you can keep saying you love Spain (but grammatically correct😊) It would be “Estoy enamorada de España”
@@valeriag9443 ohhh, I’m so sorry, I must have checked that before writing it! Thank you for your correction ☺️ Mexico is beautiful as well, but I haven’t there :(
@@VASIGTravelingLifeinLondon don’t be sorry❤️ I just wanted to help you out because I’d appreciate it if someone helped me if I made a mistake in a language I’m not completely fluent in😊
I haven't eaten paella often, but the best - indeed the only one I truly enjoyed - was made by a Catalan friend in his apartment at Tarragona. He showed me how to make it; he also invited friends of his to join us, and I think those aspects of it were what made it so great beyond itself: the authentic ingredients and cookware, on Spanish territory, eaten from the centre of the table by a group of people.
@Sam H @Kamille Windbirk Once a week or something. Twice a month if that’s too much. Honestly some of my favorite parts of Grace’s videos are when the two of them laugh uncontrollably on the sofa together in the evenings.
I have an eating disorder , but Grace's channel feels so safe and motivating. Always watch me some grackle when i eat to have some company and fun distraction. Also Bought myself some chocolate today to enjoy and challange myself. Keep the awesome content and vibes goingg, love yaa❤
A little tip for Zafarron(since we use it a lot to cook): as u know its expensive. So we put just a pinch of zafarton in 2 tsp of water and let it sit in till the water becomes yellow. Now you can use this for taste.❤️
Grace is always so conscious of other countries' diversity in food and so respectful overall, its so wholesome. PULS, I love her dressing sense, especially while she was preparing lunch
In Spain we have this word "sobremesa" - literally translates as "over the table" - which refers to they time you spend sat down at the table after a meal: relaxing, chatting, enjoying time with others, maybe having coffee too or a shot of some type of digestive liquor ...
It is actually weird that the recipe said to let the potatoes and the eggs chill! We usually pour it into the pan immediately after adding the potatoes. Also adding onion to the tortilla is one of the most controversial topics in Spain, people hate it or love it and the debate never seems to end (onion team always btw). Love your videos
Yes I found the whole tortilla recipe very different from how my Abuela makes it. We do onions everytime, slice the potatoes much thicker, everything goes back in the pan straight away with some olive oil. Our household debate is always: tortilla hot or room temp. My husband insists it's better once it cools down but I like it hot from the pan😁
I allways let the eggs and potatoes (and onion!) sit together for a while, it makes the tortilla creamier and tastier. If you like your tortilla well cooked i suppose it's less important, but if you like it "runny" you should do it.
@@lizziegfunk yes! I also slice the potatoes much thicker, although I think it is because I am too lazy to make them thinner xD. And I definitely agree with you, it's much better when it's still hot!
I'm Portuguese and we also have bread with every meal. My dad says "Uma refeição sem pão é uma refeição de ladrão" which means a meal without bread is a thieves meal!
grackleeeee!! you should make an 'eating brazilian foods for a day', i think you're gonna enjoy it, it's so good! foods to include, if u want: (coxinha, pastel, moqueca, feijao tropeiro, brigadeiro, palha italiana, guava juice, etc... there's a lot of yummy options!
yeeees i grew up with a Brazilian family friend and the rice and chicken hearts ughhhhhhh so good. also brigadeiro danggg!! puts canada to shame any day of the week.
When Grace was discussing a snack she would have on holiday in Spain I really expected her to get in bed with a bag of lays and bottle of fanta lemon...
Lemon fanta? Dafuq is that? I've only seen strawberry, pineapple, grape, orange, and piña colada. Idk if I could do lemon soda, that's like insulting to real lemonade which is not fizzy.
As a French person, a lot if this is familiar. The bread at every meal, the no dessert thing, the mid afternoon snack (for children especially) and the long meals. The only difference is breakfast is most often sweet in France (but contrary to popular belief, rarely a pastry or croissant) and otherwise we eat earlier too.
Grace you should try the curly girl routine for a week for a video!!! Your hair at the beginning definitely looks like there is a wave pattern there and it would be interesting to see what happens if you did a version of the curly girl method!
i’ve struggled with my eating a lot through my life, dipping in and out of having an eating disorder for the last few years. i just thought i’d say how much your content has had a positive impact on my relationship with food. like watching someone eat such a variety of food without talking about how “bad” it is or how much you regret it afterwards (which somehow ends up getting mentioned in most food based content). thank you so much for the contribution you’ve had to my recovery
Hi Grace! As a spaniard and fan of yours I can truly say I enjoyed this so much. I really appreciate your effort in trying to integrate the culture aspect of eating into these videos. Your breakfast was 10/10, lunch was actually really nice to see you cook. As you mentioned, chorizo isnt typicaly in paella, but there are so many versions of it it wouldnt shock anyone, you even made the broth and put the saffron!! Its very typical in the winter to go for a merienda of “Chocolate con Churros” although not many people cook them at home. The tortilla looked really good, we only let it chill for about 2-5minutes and cook it less to have the egg more runny, again everyone has their one version. And yes! We do usually have bread with olive oil and fruit and coffee for dessert, I think you did an amazinf job ♥️
It's like the day 'Bake off' or something is on.... Literally when I wake up I think, oh it's Thursday, Grackle will be on (TH-cam tonight), then I bubble up with excitement!! And wait for 5pm 🙌❤️
You should do more videos on Spain!!! Spanish desserts ;) I am Spanish and I could give you some family recipes. Thank you for trying your best and being so respectful !!! I have been reading the comments and I can't believe how many Spanish followers you have hehe you truly cheer me up. On the olive oil, Tesco has an own-brand olive oil (I believe it's the extra virgin organic one) and comes in a glass bottle. It was excellent, 100% recommend! You did really great and it's so nice to see how much fun you have when you cook :)
As a Spanish student (as in learning Spanish) I really appreciate the effort you went to, especially saying that all the regions have different cuisines. As a viewer of the channel, your videos just bring me soooo much joyyy! Thank you for all your content :D
Insane video. As an Spaniard I love how she really appreciates spanish food and culture, cause not everyone does it. I enjoyed so much watching your video.
I love some Polish foods (especially homemade pierogi) but I hear they also eat pickles on crackers in Poland so just like anywhere I'm sure some foods are questionable. 😅 I'd love to see her do this.
Grace has literally got me through the past year. Found your channel at the start of 2020 and you're always a beam of happiness every single video you make. I moved away in December of 2019 to across the country on my own so it's been incredibly lonely being away from my family but it's always an amazing day when grace uploads. Grace & taz are such beautiful people who deserve all the happiness and success in the world T_T
You should try doing Ramadan for a day! Lots of people at my work try it for a day and it’s very eye opening and makes you more considerate if you know anyone observing Ramadan because it’s so hard! It’s also a really interesting to learn about because I didn’t realise there was so much more to it than fasting!
I'm doing it this year and yes, the first few days were pretty tough, but now it's going well... I'm not Muslim myself, but I wanted to feel closer to those who are 🙂
So excited she tried Spanish food! Just FYI (not as a criticism but more as info), you definitely are not supposed to put chorizo in paella or really to put it in a dish with seafood. The seafood is nice a fresh so you don't want to camouflage the taste with strong chorizo. The churros looked bomb but we don't put cinnamon and we don't have a sauce with them, we have a super thick hot chocolate instead, in which you dip the churros. For the tortilla, most people don't cut the potato in thin slices but thick ones or cubes and we absolutely do not let it rest, it goes straight back in the pan. It is indeed also thicker. The gazpacho should also be a bit thinner and redder so more tomato, less of the other stuff, definitely nothing cooked, all goes in raw. Hope this is useful to anyone who wants to give these recipes a go and who want to try to make it "more authentic" (not that that matters all that much).
It’s even more fun to Spaniards because one of our politicians a few years ago was trying to talk in English and said “A cup of café con leche in Plaza Mayor” 😂
You made the three dishes that were made for me by a Catalan friend when I stayed with him at his home in Tarragona years ago! Pa amb tomàquet (to use the Catalan name), paella and Spanish omelette were the ones he was especially keen for me to embrace, and he taught me how to make them all, though no paella has ever come close to matching the brilliance of his. Incidentally, 2:59 was, I believe, the correct way to say it! Likewise 3:02.
this made me realise that some of the food traditions people in Spain have are kind of similar to the ones we have in Greece! btw you could try eating greek food for a day! :)
Hi grace! Im from Spain and id just like to give you a few tips! 1. The tomato toast is usually blended tomato not just tomato rubbed on toast. And usually pared with olive oil salt and cheese slices. (At least where im from) Alicante spain. 2. We usually drink coffee for breakfast but we also have fresh orange juice most of the time. 3. Seafood paella is very big but we don’t usually eat the seafood with chicken and chorizo. We also have chicken and rabbit paellas. But chorizo is not very heard of, i see you mention that anyway😊 i love your videos and i have been watching you for a few years, hope this helps you a little❣️ also we usually eat out churros with hot chocolate but its much thicker than normal😊
Where I'm from, paella does have chorizo! It's very different depending on the part of Spain 💜 I've never seen parsley on top of paella though 😂 I guess that's a fancy thing
OMG I studied abroad in Spain for a semester and tortilla de patata was my favorite! My host mom made awesome paella and every lunch we would have soup/salad, bread, a main dish, and then a piece of fruit for dessert. I lived in Granada and they are obsessed with ham; like families buy whole legs of pigs and eat off it for weeks. Also, breakfast was usually really small, like toast or yogurt with tea so on my way to school, I would buy a demi baguette or pain au chocolat to snack on. Churros there were so good and come with really thick "drinking" chocolate!
I lived in Spain for 2 years as a kid, even as a fussy eater I miss the food. My school used to make rabbit and chicken paella! And Spanish pizza was my favourite thing in the world
I am binge watching all your videos, I get why people are saying that you are a comfort-youtuber. Because it feels like videocalling the friend that always cheers you up.
im so proud of you for the tortilla flip!! it is a rite of passage for the spanish youth. i will not make comments about the authenticity of the paella recipe, HOWEVER, it's pronounced Pah-eh-yah. so happy u liked our food
Gracie you are so respectful to all the cultures you give a try and I honestly think more people should do these challenges just for themselves! To learn and appreciate other cultures. I for sure know that I will start doing this! Thanks for inspiring so many of us and I hope everyone keeps it nice in the comments and only gives uplifting advice xx
As a Spaniard, I got so excited when I saw you were eating Spanish food for a day! Thanks for trying to follow the recipes just as they were written down. Yes, it's true that paella does not have chorizo in it, but every place in Spain does it different and at least it looks good, I'm happy you and your family enjoyed it so much (next time try and substitute the peppers for red ones and cut them in longer strips rather than in square bits. Also you can use ñora peppers for the base, it makes such a difference!) Would love to watch another one of these videos, there's so much to try in Spain. Much love♡
*I’m from Barcelona and I just can say.. THIS IS MARVELOUS. Buen trabajo Grackle, so well done with the cooking! Sending you so much love y un abrazo grande. I hope you come here someday soon and meet you xoxo* 🤍✨🦋
Yay Grace, so happy to see you enjoy my country's cuisine 😍 I don't live in Spain anymore and OMG I miss the food soooo much. You did a good job and you are so respectful, love it! :)
Love you!! Not even a minute in yet but just wanted to say your videos Lift my mood so so much grace! So pure and cute yet funny and sassy, everything I need in my life to keep faith that there are still good people out there 😂 happy thursday!! X
graces videos always make me feel so much better, i just got a hospital referral for celiac disease and a few other things so really really needed a new grack
Grace you did good! We do have churros con chocolate for la merienda, its one of the things we may have for la merienda. We also have them for breakfast and also before going home after being at the feria all night (flamenco traditional party). Your videos are so uplifting. Love them.
Great effort. Thanks for sharing. Couple of tips for next time: - Tortilla: Use a smaller pan for the tortilla and pre heat it well before pouring the mix into the pan. - Gazpacho. Don't cook the ingredients. Just blend them. - Patella: I'm not a purist, so not commenting on the ingredients, but try not to stir it once the rice and stock are together. Opposite of what you would do with an Italian risotto. Some people add the stock before the rice, some people after. Also try to find a flatter pan or get a paella pan if cooking it often. - churros. They did look amazing, but they are normally breakfast thing
yess needed a video upload from grackle after my first long week of exams, thank youu for brightening up my dayy ✨💕 Hope everyones having a good day btww (: Also video idea you could fast for a day like us muslims are doing as its ramadan just like for the experience i think it’d make pretty cool contentt (ps: hope the tenth fast is going well for anyone else fasting 💕)
for the pan con tomate (pa amb tomaquet) where I live - trick for the tomatoes is to slice across the equator, rather than pole the pole if that makes sense.
Hehe, Papa Booth was so invested in the paella. I know how much he loves his shellfish from the personal chef episode. And then you just see him going to town on that paella: “Make it tomorrow”
Since in one of your recent videos you loved the Middle Eastern takeout you should do a "only eating middle eastern food for the day" I recommend Lebanon :)
I completely understand you on the coffee front. It's not just that it's oily, as if it were brewed in an unwashed skillet. It's also that it immediately and violently offends my lower digestive tract. It smells good, though.
Olive oil and bread are also Greek people's diet key points ! There is no meal without them ! Glad to see so many similarities between the two cultures I will definitely try Spanish recipes in the future !
As a Spaniard, I’m so excited to see this video! I love how respectful Grace is and how she takes the time to research the country and culture. I appreciate how hard she tries to make things right.

Also, breakfast was usually really small, like toast or yogurt with tea so on my way to school, I would buy a demi baguette or pain au chocolat to snack on. Churros there were so good and come with really thick "drinking" chocolate!
Loving the Spring clothing vibes. The flowery blouse is so pretty and makes your eyes pop ❤️
I lived in Spain for 2 years as a kid, even as a fussy eater I miss the food. My school used to make rabbit and chicken paella! And Spanish pizza was my favourite thing in the world
And churros were definetly eaten, more street food though
I am binge watching all your videos, I get why people are saying that you are a comfort-youtuber. Because it feels like videocalling the friend that always cheers you up.
I'm a Spanish fan of yours since forever and this was such a cute and exciting video!!! 🧡
I'm so glad you enjoyed all the recipes! You were super respectful and nice throughout the video as well :))
im so proud of you for the tortilla flip!! it is a rite of passage for the spanish youth.
i will not make comments about the authenticity of the paella recipe, HOWEVER, it's pronounced Pah-eh-yah.
so happy u liked our food
this video excites meeeeee :D:D
Are u part Italian or Spanish
@@xenaburg2362 half spanish :)
hi theree
I could just imagine Steph getting so excited for this ! X
I'm from Spain and I have loved this video so much!!! Churros looked amazing!!
Gracie you are so respectful to all the cultures you give a try and I honestly think more people should do these challenges just for themselves! To learn and appreciate other cultures. I for sure know that I will start doing this! Thanks for inspiring so many of us and I hope everyone keeps it nice in the comments and only gives uplifting advice xx
I adore the relationship you have with your parents. You are just the sweetest family! And those churros looked amazing!
Your dad hovering over the paella was awesome! Love your dad 😆🥰
So excited to watch this and hopefully discover some new recipes! I have loved all of the Spanish food I have tried so far 😀❤️
As a Spaniard, I got so excited when I saw you were eating Spanish food for a day! Thanks for trying to follow the recipes just as they were written down. Yes, it's true that paella does not have chorizo in it, but every place in Spain does it different and at least it looks good, I'm happy you and your family enjoyed it so much (next time try and substitute the peppers for red ones and cut them in longer strips rather than in square bits. Also you can use ñora peppers for the base, it makes such a difference!)
Would love to watch another one of these videos, there's so much to try in Spain. Much love♡
*I’m from Barcelona and I just can say.. THIS IS MARVELOUS. Buen trabajo Grackle, so well done with the cooking! Sending you so much love y un abrazo grande. I hope you come here someday soon and meet you xoxo* 🤍✨🦋
As a valencian, I wasn't ready for that paella xD
Yay Grace, so happy to see you enjoy my country's cuisine 😍 I don't live in Spain anymore and OMG I miss the food soooo much. You did a good job and you are so respectful, love it! :)
Could you go to a supermarket and go through each isle close your eyes and pick randomly and try and make a meal or something out of it 😇😇😇
Love you!! Not even a minute in yet but just wanted to say your videos Lift my mood so so much grace! So pure and cute yet funny and sassy, everything I need in my life to keep faith that there are still good people out there 😂 happy thursday!! X
Also shout out to your dad too, best food critic buddy also a MVP in my TH-cam life
OMG GRACE!!! SPANISH FOOD FOR A DAY?!!! Didn't see that coming!
Definitely the most exciting moment of the day :D Hola de España! ❤️💛
Grace your videos always put a smile on my face. You cheer me up instantly! Thank you for the fab content you always make x
All of this looked amazing! I DIED at the naughty commentary when you were trying the churros, you’re wonderful Grace 🤣
I love your dad, as someone with a tricky/slightly absent dad, it makes me so happy and feel so safe to see your relationship with papa booth
graces videos always make me feel so much better, i just got a hospital referral for celiac disease and a few other things so really really needed a new grack
Grace you did good! We do have churros con chocolate for la merienda, its one of the things we may have for la merienda. We also have them for breakfast and also before going home after being at the feria all night (flamenco traditional party). Your videos are so uplifting. Love them.
Loving the original content form grackle always brightens up my day x
As a Spanish viewer I can’t begin to tell you how happy this makes me; I would love to see a part 2 💓
I WAS SO EXCITED AS A SPANISH PERSON TO WATCH THIS!!!!!!
Great effort. Thanks for sharing. Couple of tips for next time:
- Tortilla: Use a smaller pan for the tortilla and pre heat it well before pouring the mix into the pan.
- Gazpacho. Don't cook the ingredients. Just blend them.
- Patella: I'm not a purist, so not commenting on the ingredients, but try not to stir it once the rice and stock are together. Opposite of what you would do with an Italian risotto. Some people add the stock before the rice, some people after. Also try to find a flatter pan or get a paella pan if cooking it often.
- churros. They did look amazing, but they are normally breakfast thing
yess needed a video upload from grackle after my first long week of exams, thank youu for brightening up my dayy ✨💕
Hope everyones having a good day btww (:
Also video idea you could fast for a day like us muslims are doing as its ramadan just like for the experience i think it’d make pretty cool contentt
(ps: hope the tenth fast is going well for anyone else fasting 💕)
I live for how much Papa Booth was hovering over that paella.
for the pan con tomate (pa amb tomaquet) where I live - trick for the tomatoes is to slice across the equator, rather than pole the pole if that makes sense.
Hehe, Papa Booth was so invested in the paella. I know how much he loves his shellfish from the personal chef episode. And then you just see him going to town on that paella: “Make it tomorrow”
Please do this again with another country- thoroughly enjoyed! Maybe Caribbean day next?
I loved the little zoom when your dad said he wanted a churro at the end haha
Yes! I have been having such a bleh day and a new grack video is exactly what i needed :)
the fresh bread, made on the day from a bakery, is the best. It literally is the best.
Omg Grace! I absolutely love your videos so flipping much, you always come up with the most interesting and fun video ideas. Xx (first)
i just stumbled across ur channel a few days ago and i’m already hooked 😊 your videos with your dad are so comforting and entertaining
Omg this made me so happy!!!! Love from Spain x ❤✨
Since in one of your recent videos you loved the Middle Eastern takeout you should do a "only eating middle eastern food for the day" I recommend Lebanon :)
I love how excited Grace gets about small things like the potato mandolin, it's sweet
as a Spaniard in the UK this is definitely the serotonin boost I needed to get me through today - so glad you had fun Grace!!
Please make a video eating brazilian food for 24 hours! We would love it. Love your videos ❤️🥰
I completely understand you on the coffee front. It's not just that it's oily, as if it were brewed in an unwashed skillet. It's also that it immediately and violently offends my lower digestive tract.
It smells good, though.
I absolutely love all three of you!!
Thank you so very much for sharing your lives with us!
God bless and keep you all safe and sound.
We do have churros as merienda haha. With hot chocolate (kind of hot cocoa) they are delicious
You should eat like a Finn for a day!! (Karelian pies, salmon soup, Blueberry pie etc.)
I just love how you just jump in and try different foods and just go along for the adventure !
i LOVED watching this especially cause i've lived in spain my whole life!! so interesting to see what you thought about the food from here hehe
Olive oil and bread are also Greek people's diet key points ! There is no meal without them ! Glad to see so many similarities between the two cultures I will definitely try Spanish recipes in the future !
