    Thank you Mr. Giant for reacting to another Romania video.
    The song in the beginning is Russian. Those are Lipovan people who left the Russian Empire because of religious persecution and settled here. Very nice people, very nice culture. I had the chance of seeing them with my own eyes a couple of times.
    The food has various influences depending on the region. In the West we have foods like Gulash which is Hungarian, in the South we have foods like Musaca which is Turkish or Greek (depending who you ask).

    1) he was smashing red onions. Onions are better smashed than cut
    2) we like to drink this traditional home made drink called Palincă/Rakia
    3) we love garlic and onions
    4) soup and ciorbă (sour soup) is our favorite food specially in the winter

      ​@@MrGiant, the real reason we use lemon and not lime is that lemons are not traditionally grown in Romania (yet, that may change with the global warming), we have imported them from Greece or Turkey for hundreds of years, which are not major lime producers (although they do grow some) Most limes are produced in tropical countries and as a result, the limes cost twice as much as lemons in Romania. Limes are a new fad here, in Romania, the stores started selling them after year 2000. So, that's total bullshit that limes are too sweet, they simply have no tradition in cooking and they are expensive AF. We do use them in mixed drinks, but that's a new fad as well.

    200years ago, some russians comunities (hundreds of russians) run and hide in the Danube Delta due to the war politic of the Tzar as they were looking for a peaceful life. They live in the Delta since, preserving their culture and language while they are also well integrated to the country. Is an act of culture display every time you go to the Delta as they will enchant you with their beautiful songs, outfits, dances.

    The region of Romania called Dobrogea is etnic diverse: turks, greeks, bulgarians, lipoveni (russian speaking), tatars.
    Ivan Patzachin was a legend of the Kayak-Canoe sport who was born in the Danube Delta. His father was a fisherman from Lipovans community.
    He won eight world titles and four olimpic gold medals in five Olimpic games.
    Beside this there were two races who made him a legend:
    In 1972 in Muenchen he succeeded to finish a race even after a paddle broke. He paddled with a piece of wood he took from the floor of his canoe. Of course he finished last but due to his stubbornness he was allowed to attend a re-qualification round, he qualified in the final and won the gold.
    In 1982 in Belgrade Patzachin and his colleague were very disappointed he took the bronze in 1000m as they hoped for gold. After the race Patzachin asked his colleague to register for the 10000 m race hoping for a better result. They had a very strong start but in the big fight to get first in line the Russian's boat hit their boat and pierced it. Initially they though they must abandon the race but Patzachin realized the wood is not fully penetrated and somehow succeeded to push back the wood pieces as the wood fibre somehow fitted back together partially sealing the hole. The water still came in but it was not impossible to deal with as they had a pump. Each boat had this pump to expel the water (this was a common situation to have water in the boat when an opponent paddle near you). So, for the rest of the race Patzachin had to pump the water out with one leg. As it was a long race they start to paddle as hard as they could and they succeed to catch the rest of the boats which distanced away and finally won the race.
    Despite all these performance he remained a very modest man. He looked always shy when he was interviewed about his astonishing performances.
    Apparently he never enjoyed the fame he gained, they even raised him a statue against his will.
    He was just a simple man who loved to paddle, to teach kids to paddle and to love the Danube delta.
    R.I.P. Ivan Patzachin

    5:36 yes, Romanian cuisine is sort of a fusion of many local influences, Russian and Ukranian in the East and South East Romania ( especially in the Danube Delta, where there's a sizable Russian community ), Greek and Turkish in the South, German and Hungarian in the West, lots of influences from the wider Balkan penninsula that Romania is a part of, and even French influences owed to Romania's strong cultural affiliation with France at the turn of the 20st century. The food is great what with so many influences, it really needs to be tasted to be believed :)

    I love how much you like Romanian content and our nature. The food here is typically organic and local. Although we also have American fast-food chains.
    Some local sweets are: chocolate bars from a company called Poiana which means "medow" in English, eugenia (two biscuits with a rum chocolate filling in between), Joe wafers. We also have salty snacks you can search for: pufuleti (corn puffs), pretzels from Tortizi, we like also salty and rosted pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds.

    Romania has a lot of influences in its cuisine, but they have their own twist on food. We are great gourmands and love to eat good food. We love soups and sour soups (in fact we like sour savoury foods more that sweet foods, like for example our Hungarian neighbours). We have Ottoman, Greek, Austro-Hungarian, French, Balkan influences in our cuisine, and now we get Italian influences, Asian influences... About fish, although we have a border on the Black Sea, most of our fish is river fish, like trout, Danube carp, Danube sturgeons, catfish, mackerel. Freshly caught wild trout tastes divine. Our carp has sweet meat and we fry it covered in maize grit; or we grill it and cover it with grilled red peppers, onions, tomatoes, other grilled vegetables and hot salted water and crushed garlic. We call this saramura and we eat it with polenta. About onion: yellow ones are for cooking, to eat raw one used red onions or white "water" onions as we call them, that are sweeter and not that pungent.

    I learned in school that sturgeon fishing was permanently banned in Romania, especially because the 3 species of rare sturgeons that are sought after reproduce only once every 15-20 years, so caviar here was always imported, not local. Apparently, this rule has changed by the time Mark visited the Danube Delta and had the rare occasion of eating sturgeon. The good news is that Romania voted back the permanent ban in 2021. It's illegal to fish sturgeons again.

      One thing to note, the catfish in the US is related, but not the same species as the one here. It still has a muddy taste if it's too large, but it largely depends on the environment. If it grows in faster water, where there isn't as much mud on the bottom, it's not that bad. If it's under 10kg and cooked properly, it can be really good.

    I'll probably annoy my fellow nationals with this statement, but we didn't really have any real complicated dishes that you could say this is the recipe for this, it was mostly bbq open fire stuff, stews you know really basic food that was probably common worldwide whatever was around the house or you could farm as that was the main occupation, farmer or shepherd. Most if not all of the dishes that we call national dishes nowadays have their origins from foreign lands by way of invading forces, like we have that cabbage roll stuffed with minced meat that has its origins in the middle east, but if you compare the two nowadays they're almost entirely different dishes, and we usually combine this dish with a side dish which is made with corn that comes from south america, to exemplify how we combined and gave things a personal spin. But in general a combination of middle eastern, slavic, balkan, mediterranean and germanic cuisines, can't go wrong with that. In Romania we do our dumplings from wheat semolina don't know if you guys use it there, has a similar texture to couscous, but imagine a big couscous dumpling, absorbs that liquid and you bite into it and all that soup explodes in your mouth, usually we do them with chicken soup but now you got me thinking it would be delicious with some fish soup as well. For Romanian sweets i think you'd have more luck grabbing the recipes off the net and making it, or if you do ever find a Romanian restaurant you have to try our probably #1 desert, fried cheese donuts topped with sour cream and jam - preferably some sour fruit jam like sour cherries ( Papanasi is the name of the desert)

    According to a recent study, Romania was number 11 in rank, for alcohol consumption. That's pretty high... 12.34 liters of pure alcohol consumed per person over 15, in 2019 (world average is under 6 liters). Now, I don't know how those studies are made, and I wonder if they take into account all the booze made by people for personal use. And the inhabitants of the Danube Delta are notorious around here, for the amount of alcohol they consume.
    Overall, we do have a drinking problem - at least according to statistics. I've traveled around Europe quite a bit, and for me it looked much worse in England and in Germany (Germany is above us, in the ranking I mentioned). But maybe we're just better at drinking without getting drunk :)

So, here's a list... of what I consider staples of Romanian snacks and sweets. They are around here since before the fall of communism (since then we've adopted and adapted a lot of other stuff like potato chips, tortilla, and all manner of sweets):
      Pufuleti (corn puffs, salty), Eugenia (biscuits with cream), Pufarine (fruit flavored and sweetened puffed rice), Rom - classic (chocolate bar with rum cream filling), Magura (a kind of sponge cake with cream), CIP (candy) are names with a long history. And, from Moldova (our little sister), all kind of candies from Bucuria, with my favorite "Scufita Rosie" (little red riding hood).
      Kandia and Bucuria are the companies that make many of those, and many other "Romanian sweets" . Maybe you can find them that way.

    An explanation for anybody
    Those region who include Danube Delta was from thousands of years a centarl hub for civilization meet. Before train and truks Danube was the most transport route of goods from far east to central Europe. Greeks colonized the shores 3000 years ago, after coms the romans, bulgarians, turks; in the time of Romanian Kingdom it becomes a safety place for deflectors from Russian empire, Today there are not only romanians but also ancient communities of rusians, ucrainians, tatars, turks, greeks, armenians. There is not a mirage that they deal in so manny ways with fish product. Recepies and spice from orient and mediteraneean was meeting here and everybody learned something from other.
    Speaking about palinka/tuica/rachia is not big deal. Its made from fruits not from wheat like vodka or wiskey, and for us it is like a precursor of red bull. Ordinary people use it as a booster for hard works, drinking it wisely, only for getting strong not to get drunk. Those people who are drunk in the street they are losers or dummyes. And nobody respect them.

    19:00 YES, Romanians do drink a lot. We have a lot of good wines with centuries of history. We have good beer, and our traditional drinks (tuica, palinca, visinata, etc) they are all very alcohol heavy. Tuica can get to 60-70% alcohol!

    Being an ethnic group of Slavic origins, the Lipovian Russians are descendants of the Starovers, i.e. followers of the Old Rite Orthodox faith in Russia, who left their homeland in the 17th-18th centuries following the schism in the Official Russian Church, as a tragic consequence of the reform of cult initiated by Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich Romanov (father of Peter the Great) and Patriarch Nikon of Russia (1652-1658). The reform, started in 1954, which aimed to change the church ritual, was adopted by the Council of the Russian Orthodox Church in 1667. Those who did not obey the new canons were anathematized, being considered heretics, rascals (erroneously called so, because they did not they were the ones who initiated the schism). Among those who opposed the reform. For their steadfast faith, some of them were burned at the stake, others subjected to tsarist persecution; at the end of the century 17th century, more than 20,000 Staroveri burned at the stake in this festive Orthodox inquisition in Eastern Europe. After the legalization of the persecutions by the decree of Regent Sofia (Peter I's older sister), in 1685, the Starovers took the path of wandering, spreading throughout the world (Turkey, Prussia, Austria, Australia, Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Japan, Baltic countries, Poland, USA, Romanian countries, Bulgaria, Finland, Ukraine, Belarus, etc.)
    Palinca or tuica is an alcohol distilled from fermented fruits, mainly plums, but also apples, pears, etc., in almost every village household, everyone makes their own palinca for consumption with friends, neighbors or guests.

    I've never been into seafood so I was more into the vegetables and bread beside the fish than the main fish itself, lol. Growing up 300 miles inland I got a taste for land meat rather than sea meat. Only fish I ever had growing up was the Catholic Church fish fry during Lent, and I ate a BUNCH of that 🤣🤣🤣. That Kentucky catfish story gave me a laugh. They do drink a bunch in Eastern Europe and from the stories I've been told by Eastern Europeans they start young. The broth in that waters looks delicious, I'll have to try it in one of my vegetaable soups sometime. Have a good weekend.

    Hi again man. I see now your vlog from Danube delta. I want to tell you that there are thousands of types of river fish, but also from Bkack Sea, because the Danube delta comes into contact with the Black Sea. Also, there are thousands of fish dishes in România, with influences from ukrainian, turkish and greek cuisine.
    The war in Ukraine is miles away, but people go on with their lives. There are many fishing villages there, and people live from fishing and tourism. The Danube delta is protected by UNESCO, but turism can be done in some places. There are thousands of unique types of fish and birds.
    The fish soup ( ciorba de pește) from the Danube delta is one of the best in the world. People drink a lot in eastern Europe, especially fruit drink ( plums, apples, pears ) distilled twice, at 50-60 degrees.
    Yes, we Romanians have manage to preserve our traditions and way of life in the countryside. There are many minorities in România, and in the Danube delta too ( romanians, ukrainians, lipovians, tatars ). What you see is the Lipovian minority, wich is a mixture of Slavic people and who live in the eastern part of the Danube delta.
    I told you once, that you are welcome in Romania. Respectly, Cristian

    I've written this before. It's hard to talk about Romanian cuisine, just like it's hard to talk about any specific country cuisine in the Balkans. We share most of the foods, but we all have regional twists in the way we make them. It will depend mostly on what is naturally available in each region. Take sarmale as a classic example. It's ground meat in cabbage rolls. Except it can be done with pork, sheep, beef, fish, poultry or even no meat at all. It can be cabbage leaves, or vine leaves, or any other leave. It's the same dish, but the details can vary a lot.

    Gastronomy of Romania has been greatly influenced by the Ottoman cuisine, but also includes influences from the cuisines of other neighbors, such as the Germans, Hungarians, Serbians and Hungarians. There are also traces of French, Viennese, and other Western European cuisines in Romanian cuisine.
