OMG! How wonderful! Remindd me of my baba. Dialects aside, I think it's the way older people spoke, and my Grandmother was educated. Came from a well to do family. But, it was a more of a "home" way to speak. I understood most of what she said. (Mostly because I am NOT fluent in Macedonian. I get confused when I hear the "younger generation" talk.) But, this I got more!!
Her "dialect" is how people have always spoken around Macedonia, especially those who aren't "lucky" to be educated much formally. I speak Bulgarian and I understand her very clearly...
Disclaimer: Though I am a native speaker, I am not familiar with her dialect. However, she is just narrating her actions.
So I was telling Dobrina...
Flour, as much as you need for the amount of dough you're making. Water, enough so that you can work your dough. Then... oh it's a little dry, gotta mix it well. And you work it.
Then you knead it, and cut it up into little balls when you're done kneading (at least I think that's what she says. Lotsa dialect here)
This is how the grandmas did it, and the way we do it ourselves.
Now we take this sheet to rest over here. Just like that. We're going to make each sheet separately then stack 'em together. And so, one by one...
Now we're going to light the stove and bake it.
We grease the pan like so.
Okay, just like that. Then we take the sheets... and fill them. Every sheet has to be greased with a little olive oil, or maybe a little margarine, or maybe something else.
Okay, and then we scrunch, scrunch, scrunch them up, just like that. Then drop it in. Then you keep going, while you have sheets (or, till you run out of sheets.) Drop a little olive oil on. There we go. Put em in there. Like that, just like that till you've finished your Zelnik. Now you do this to your Zelnik: Bring the top sheet over like this. There you go. Now for the sauerkraut, which has leeks, eggplant, and bell pepper. And we put on a sheet to cover it. And there's your Zelnik!
Now we're making Banitza. The pan is greased with olive oil. We're going to be making ours with... eggs. You can make it with feta, or with yellow cheese (kashkaval), however you like it. We're going to make it with eggs.
Drop some olive oil on. Sheets. Eggs. Olive oil. (She kinda gave up on narrating here)
And you put it on, and you bake it. Depending on the temperature, you might bake it about 30 min. Put that in there so it doesn't burn.
brings back memories of my baba, she lived to 96 and this lady speaks and acts like her, thanx for the video
