You should try going to a middle eastern or asian supermarket for this challenge next time!!! Its' crazy interesting to see a whole new selection of snacks, fruit/veg, desserts etc. A polish supermarket just opened up near me and even the stuff I found there was soooo different to your average UK shop. Totally throws what you consider should be pantry staples out the window lol
Yes I agree!! there is a Turkish supermarket close to me and it's full of delicious food from all Arab countries. The packaging and branding doesn't look as good but the products are high quality! That's been my jam since lockdown haha
there are SOOO many foods i haven't tried just because of my ED. I would only eat "safe foods" but watching other people try new foods really help me branch out and try new things!! You only live once and I can't just eat the same things everyday!!!
Same for me! It's been really helpful to see others just eat without overthinking it or seeing it as a massive deal. Hope your recovery is going well :)
I love your content, you are so authentic and entertaining, but I also find it oddly soothing to watch shots of normal family life. That sounds super weird. I came from a violent and angry household and it's so lovely just seeing normal households interact. Your dad is awesome. Sorry if that sounded too weird. It5just so nice to see how families should be .
GRACK! If you want to try foods you've never had before, go to a Korean mart, Indian grocery store, Caribbean market, etc. Maybe turn it into a series, delving into genuine local dishesand recreate them
You can bake the spaghetti squash, remove the seeds, then use a fork to pull out the inside. It's stringy and looks like spaghetti. Eat it with your favorite pasta sauce, salt & butter or oil & vinegar. As for the fennel, cut the roots off, then wash it & slice it up and you can eat it raw. My daughter's Italian born mother in law serves it after dinner. It's got a slight anise/licorice flavor and is known to aide digestion. I bet your Mom would like it.
Spaghetti squash is actually pretty nice with different kinds of sauces because it doesn't have much of a flavour on its own. I'd never eat fennel raw though, it's like celery to me, can't eat it raw either. But fennel is delicious in soups and stews. I love the licorice-like flavour 😋
two years or so ago i sat in a sociology lecture and the guy in front of me had kiwi berries on his desk...prior to that moment i had never heard of kiwi berries, and i absolutely freaked out and Could Not think about anything else. after that lecture i went into two supermarkets to find me some lol. they taste amazing
I am Italian and can confirm that I thought “what are you doing” when you pan fried the gnocchi, 😂 but I’m glad you liked them!! Theoretically gnocchi should be cooked in the same way as pasta: put them in boiling salted water and wait for them to come to the surface (takes only a couple of minutes), then remove from water and add tomato sauce/pesto/whatever. Gnocchi are amazing, I hope you’ll try them in an Italian restaurant! Love from Italy x
We have successfully domesticated goddesses and now they live in our homes like house cats... wait... maybe cats ARE just domesticated gods and goddesses?!?
You need to try Gnocchi at an Italian restaurant!!!! So good🥰 I feel like there’s a big difference between the ones at the supermarket and the ones in a restaurant
Or maybe try fresh gnocchi from another shop, a lot of places carry fresh. I feel like eating any kind of pasta dish in a restaurant is a waste of money since I can easily make pasta at home. But maybe that's me. (I count gnocchi in the pasta category)
@@tamarasdreamworld yes, she should make them herself, that's when they're next level goodness. Pro tip: adding chopped herbs to the dough takes it to the next level, it is incredible!
Gnocchi tip: boiling it makes more sense if you're feelimg more like a pasta. Pan frying it will give it more of a potato texture. Honestly such an incredible and underrated food, the versatility is impeccable
I give your mom props for feeding you vegetables at a young age. My mom stuck to like 4 vegetables she liked. So at 23 years old I had asparagus and many other vegetables for the first time.
Grackle it actually is really fun because I now I plan dinner around what new veggies I can try (also partly because I love learning to cook and bake new things)
Tiff Prendergast for the most part yes asparagus wasn’t bad if cooked right. Green beans where weird because mom only had canned and they are Completely different texture. I got over my deep hatred of cooked carrots, I can handle them in things if they are small.
@17517319 I never was much of a fan of carrots either until I had them at a restaurant a few years back where they were PROPERLY cooked with amazing seasoning! It turns out pretty much every vegetable is amazing as long as it’s cooked and seasoned properly! This restaurant cooked these baby carrots to perfection to where they weren’t too soft and not too hard, and they were roasted with a ton of butter and loads of minced garlic and some other seasonings I wish I knew (probably had some MSG on it, because I honestly could inhale 10 tons of them if given the option, and I know MSG will do that to ya lol!). It was at an Italian restaurant. They cooked the fresh green beans the same way, with the same seasonings. DELISH!
5:21 Haha, I've actually "met" a couple of quails at the Butterfly House which is just outside Stockholm! They didn't talk much, just ran after each other. Cute birds, though!
Fennel can be eaten raw or cooked - very common in the US for Italian Americans to eat it between or after meals as sort of a digestive aid. It’s really good!
Tesco have black olive pesto from the vegan brand I think it's called wicked? Tastes amaaaaazing, and we know you love olives. and the pumpkin pesto is good!
I've been in hospital for a week and haven't felt well enough to watch your videos. So glad I am recovering at home now and can get back to enjoying watching you as you're such a cheerful person 😘
Trying new foods is one of my favorite thing to do. I always pick a meal that I’ve never tried before at the restaurant for example 👌🏽. I’ve had amazing discoveries and not that many bad experiences.
Grace you need to try the rose harissa added to coconut cream in a pan, with wilted spinach. It’s to die for. I usually have it with Casarecce pasta, it’s just like a pasta that Zizzi make and it’s UNREAL.
I honestly died when you looked at the spaghetti squash and said “that’s what they have in America” 😂😂😂 Edit: So sorry to be THAT guy but wow this got so many more likes than I expected and I have my own TH-cam channel if you want to check it out 😱🙈
@@MikkiBoruta I know 😁 I've lived here in Canada for the past year :) but back in Germany it's not a thing AT ALL, haha. And when i said "America", Canada was meant as well.. I mean, technically... Canada is Northern America, sooo 🤭😏
Please try roasted gnocchi! It is so delicious... Shove some on a baking tray, cover in olive oil, garlic salt, pepper, rosemary (and some grated Parmesan if you’re feeling adventurous - although obv not dairy free then!) and put into the oven for around 30 minutes, or until it’s golden and crispy on the outside. It’s one of my family’s favourites! 1000% recommend 🤩🤩
when i was 7, my family and would always stop by a restaurant to eat quail eggs after we went for a swim . me and my siblings were obsessed with it. we ate like so much like its the end of the world hahaha. aww this makes me sad hahaha. mmm i miss my fam so much. im in Australia right now. studying for my degree. my final exam is next week. pray for me guys huhuhu
I was brought up the french / Italian way and I love good wine... but strong spirits can be a little too much so I understand, I think just introducing slowly your palette will mature x x x
George L I’ve been tasting various types of alcohol for quite some time now (beer is hideous) and the last couple times I actually decided to have a drink I felt pretty ill. And it was only one drink so I wasn’t drunk or anything. I have even less incentive to drink than I did before.
Me too! Although to be fair, I've had ones I didn't like as much. There's so many different kinds of cheesecake. I don't think I would've liked the one Grace tried because I prefer either a basic cheesecake or the ones that are on the lemony or fruity side. Grace should make different kinds and have her family try them.
as a welsh person i have a lot of welshcake eating experience and can tell you that the best way to eat a welshcake is to heat it up in a toaster, butter one side (dairy free butter for you grack) and sprinkle some sugar on top. 👩🍳👌
I think I am doing some kind of reversal to childhood. I have taken an aversion to eggs, for some reason, and I used to love hard boiled eggs, but now the most I can do is scrambled, and those not often. I am also seeing changes in other foods as well with me. And veggies are getting hard for me to feel excited about. I guess I need to work on that......
Starting to be vegan has helped me with this issue. I got so much more excited to try new veggies, recipes ect. There is so much amazing food out there from all over the world to try!!😍
I was just thinking about this last night and how the problem with english/american vegetables is we literally just take vegetables and throw them on the side of the dish. most other cultures incorporate them INTO the dishes. you should try that more, if you haven't, like curries, vegetable risottos, stir-fried meals, bibimbap... if you look to other cultures, the opportunities are endless.
I can't eat hard boiled eggs (or soft boiled, for that matter) because if the yolk is not mixed in, I don't know what to do with it. It's awkward. I have nightmare feelings about gritty egg yolk on my tongue.... I'm fine with deviled eggs, because the yolks are made into a creamish sort of thing. But even then, I'm on again, off again with eggs....
@@EmilyKinny I learn a lot about cooking just by watching people from other cultures cook (on TH-cam, mostly.) I used to think that "real curry" must be complicated, and it really isn't. It's more a matter of, "oh, this looks good, think I'll throw it in...."
"Looks like a baby kiwi!" *internally screeching in New Zealander* Also, make Gooseberry Fool some time. It was my favourite dessert when I was a child.
Hi Grace you probably won’t see this. But your videos really cheer me up especially today. I had my dog put down today and your video really helped me to distract myself. Thank you Grace. Xx
Ok ,so obviously i`m very late to this video ,as a new subscriber ,but i just have to say ,How does anyone watch a @Grackle vlog without smiling? You positivity your zest for life ,and enthusiasm for food just makes me smile everytime.Thankyou for brightening up what has been a very tough year so far.Xx
An old friend introduced me to something her dad called a Stottie (i dunno if it is, i've heard the term used for other things too). So you get your potato cakes, you slather on some butter, microwave for about a min, put on some ham, then some cheese, pop it back in to melt the cheese... And then she said to add sweet chilli sauce. I was really sceptical, but i actually really love it :D
@@user.0704 what's wrong with you? Let other people enjoy what they enjoy they're not trying to make you eat it. Plus that's a pretty standard fennel and orange salad which is a thing. You just sound ignorant and rude.
I need to do that as well! Especially for snacks, I feel like I just buy the same snacks I’ve always eaten since I was a child and never try new ones....
Fennel is so good in a gratin. Also St-Dalfour jam are BOMB. They are sugar added-free 👌🏽. Yellow kiwis are also quite good. This video made me want to do the same. So fun!
Grackle It’s true. The banana tree is classed as a herb, and the fruit as berries. Plus, fun fact: banana trees walk! They can relocate by pulling their roots through the soil, and can move up to ten feet.
I ate wild gooseberries as a kid so when I saw the size of your supermarket gooseberries, I thought they looked gigantic! Our wild ones were more the size of small blueberries. They were extremely sour when green but eventually ripened to a reddish or purple color. Though sweeter when ripe, they were often too mushy, kind of like an over ripe tomato. I’m pretty sure your store’s gooseberries have been modified to increase size and possibly taste.
I bake my spaghetti squash at 350F for an hour (after you wash the outside, cut in half and place cut side down on a baking sheet) Then scoop out the insides, add butter and thyme or pasta sauce. Its very light meal. As for the fennel, wash and cut up into strips and we dip our into olive oil, balsamic vinegar and salt! Nice crunchy snack. Hope you enjoyed your new foods :) Cheers from Canada
My neighbours when I was a kid had a small holding with chickens, ducks and quails so we got lots of eggs. Quail eggs are lovely with celery salt. Fennel, feta or goats cheese and watermelon salad is delicious. Obviously leave out the cheese
Fennel is the best! It makes a great risotto to go with salmon. Also roast it with sweet potatoes and a bit of balsamic vinegar, Or put it on pizza with chorizo. You can use the top leafy bits as a herb, and the rest as a vegetable.
My family is Italian and Iraqi and my mother eats raw fennel all the time! It’s very good for heart health and has tons of nutrients. If you don’t like it plain raw though it’s always great in a salad :)
Potato bread or potato cake is so easy to make! You get some mashed potatoes and mash them up with some flour, roll it out and cut into triangles or circles and then you fry it 😀 I always have it the next after my mum cooks Sunday roast as we have loads of mash left over 💎

jemyma lena I’m not Japanese but I’m studying the language and when I heard her I laughed so hard 😂❤️
It's so cute😅
How do you pronounce it? I live near grace I say it the same as her hahaha
Im so offended by how you opened that bag of popcorn😩
omg grace do a trying to like ‘alcohol’ similar to the coffee one or the porridge
Congratulations to your dad on the bargain chair.
"one of my dreams in life is to work in an ice cream shop" she is so precious!
“Nyoocki” = Gnocchi
I make spinach & walnut pesto, it’s so tasty.
Fennel is lovely raw, sliced in salad with a bit of lemon juice and sea salt. x
BTW you can microwave the spaghetti squash to get it done quicker
Ok ,so obviously i`m very late to this video ,as a new subscriber ,but i just have to say ,How does anyone watch a @Grackle vlog without smiling? You positivity your zest for life ,and enthusiasm for food just makes me smile everytime.Thankyou for brightening up what has been a very tough year so far.Xx
You could easily grow squash including spaghetti squash in your yard.. so easy to grow
An old friend introduced me to something her dad called a Stottie (i dunno if it is, i've heard the term used for other things too). So you get your potato cakes, you slather on some butter, microwave for about a min, put on some ham, then some cheese, pop it back in to melt the cheese... And then she said to add sweet chilli sauce. I was really sceptical, but i actually really love it :D
Grace make a salad with thinly sliced raw fennel, orange pieces, black olives and a bit of balsamic vinegar...so good!
That sounds vile
BungleBonce don’t try it then
@@kates7277 don't worry, I don't plan to. Honestly makes me feel sick even thinking about it
so sophisticated!
@@user.0704 what's wrong with you? Let other people enjoy what they enjoy they're not trying to make you eat it.
Plus that's a pretty standard fennel and orange salad which is a thing. You just sound ignorant and rude.
Toasted welsh cakes with tea is the best combo
this is the earliest i have ever been. Love your video's Grace.xx
Ahh thanks for stopping by so early, you gem!
I need to do that as well! Especially for snacks, I feel like I just buy the same snacks I’ve always eaten since I was a child and never try new ones....
Happy belated birthday to Chloe!! 🎉❤️
Fennel is so good in a gratin. Also St-Dalfour jam are BOMB. They are sugar added-free 👌🏽. Yellow kiwis are also quite good. This video made me want to do the same. So fun!
3:45 Bananas are actually berries!
shut the front door
Fun fact!! 🙌
Grackle It’s true. The banana tree is classed as a herb, and the fruit as berries. Plus, fun fact: banana trees walk! They can relocate by pulling their roots through the soil, and can move up to ten feet.
@@Melissa.Garrett wow, pretty amazing plants all round. Some great fun facts there!!!
I ate wild gooseberries as a kid so when I saw the size of your supermarket gooseberries, I thought they looked gigantic! Our wild ones were more the size of small blueberries. They were extremely sour when green but eventually ripened to a reddish or purple color. Though sweeter when ripe, they were often too mushy, kind of like an over ripe tomato. I’m pretty sure your store’s gooseberries have been modified to increase size and possibly taste.
lol I'm not Italian but everytime she said KnOcKY when pronouncing gnocchi made me laugh
Mint oreos are the best!!! Mint oreo ice cream is on another level!!!
The tie dye T shirt looks great!!!
I bake my spaghetti squash at 350F for an hour (after you wash the outside, cut in half and place cut side down on a baking sheet)
Then scoop out the insides, add butter and thyme or pasta sauce. Its very light meal. As for the fennel, wash and cut up into strips and we dip our into olive oil, balsamic vinegar and salt! Nice crunchy snack. Hope you enjoyed your new foods :) Cheers from Canada
when you tried the popcorn at 6:51 it reminded me of when brittany broski tries kombucha :D
Should’ve made homemade Irish potato cakes and you could sub any dairy in the recipe for alternatives☺️
Avo and coconut ocean cream in south east Asia SLAPS SOOO HARD.
*ice cream
My neighbours when I was a kid had a small holding with chickens, ducks and quails so we got lots of eggs. Quail eggs are lovely with celery salt. Fennel, feta or goats cheese and watermelon salad is delicious. Obviously leave out the cheese
"Peace out. A town"
Me: *in Atlanta* "wait... A town? thats me"
Fennel is the best! It makes a great risotto to go with salmon. Also roast it with sweet potatoes and a bit of balsamic vinegar, Or put it on pizza with chorizo. You can use the top leafy bits as a herb, and the rest as a vegetable.
finally another food vid lovv it!! Btw London is flipping hot recently😭😣
in my family we never really ate out!!! i love trying new restaurants
grace : i’ve never had a welsh cake
me who got force fed welsh cakes every st david’s day since i was 3 : 👁👄👁
I love Welsh cakes
Nat same!!!
your energy is so captivating
HEY GRACE gnocchi is actually pronounced like ñoki (with the oki part sounding like you’re saying Loki)
I love you Grace soooo much! I wish I had your metabolism!! I have never seen anyone eat as much as you and, stay skinny, YOU LUCKY GIRL!!😚❤
I think you normally add harissa paste to Middle Eastern dishes, I’ve not seen it used as a pesto before but it did look good!
it was INCREDIBLE!
You're right but it was a pesto with harissa paste added rather than just harissa paste! Xx
Trust Waitrose to combine the best of both worlds! I’m not bougie enough to even realise it was a possibility haha 😆
I had it on vegetarian pizza once and it was so good
My family is Italian and Iraqi and my mother eats raw fennel all the time! It’s very good for heart health and has tons of nutrients. If you don’t like it plain raw though it’s always great in a salad :)
loveeee your content recently queenie xx
ahhh thank you :) it means so much x
Ooh I loved fennel cooked or raw. Made some porkloin with fennel and apricots this week
"They didn't have any potato cakes."---- serious chicky---- MAKE THEM 🤣
Potato bread or potato cake is so easy to make! You get some mashed potatoes and mash them up with some flour, roll it out and cut into triangles or circles and then you fry it 😀 I always have it the next after my mum cooks Sunday roast as we have loads of mash left over 💎
