Lithuanian soup - pink soup / cold beetroot soup / šaltibarščiai (how to)

[ChartoonShow]

JULE !!!!!

[1310monster]

So basically this is a mockery of real Baltic recipes? You have this so called Lithuanian "Girl" stirring up some half arsed....concoction of cold recipes.....when there are real people out here wanting the result.

[AndrixuzD]

Nezinau kas cia per daiktas bet tikrai ne lietuviski saltibarsciai

[SilvaBabyyy]

mano mama geriau gali padaryti =]

[MrNettieu]

Did you know there is a stanza in "Sir Thaddeus", where the soup is called "chłodziec litewski"?:)

[STASAITE]

This is a disgrace to lithuanian food. Matyt, kad gal esi is kokio nezinumo kaimo. Petrazoles ne krapai, tai nedek, sriuba nemaisyk kaip kose, kiausini pabarstyk ant virsaus. Grisk pas kita mama i virtuve! Tau niekas nepaduos tokios sriubos - niekur Lietuvoje. Tarp kitko, issipusk nosi pries filmuojant!

[principalyte16]

visu pirma niekas taip negamina pink soup, juk nepradedi siautis kelniu pries tai uzsidejus batus. zodziu ar lietuviui duoti kamera... lol

[kristytamo]

@principalyte16

Na pasidalink savo receptu tuomet ir as ismoksiu kaip gaminti saltibarscius.

[hglundahl]

Latvian or Lithuanian. Also used in Poland - but there called "Lithuanian Cold-Soup" (Chlodnik litewski)

[ridzis]

its Latvian soup its call - cold soup

[leldux10]

I thought it's Latvian soup whatever soup looks too thick.

[kristytamo]

@leldux10

If you have noticed I have added boiled cooled water. The reason is that I have user natural yoghurt instead of buttermilk (Kefir).

[Rututu1991]

you go gurl! :DD Šaltibarščiai is my favorite dish

[kristytamo]

@Rututu1991

Thank you!

[Saulatis]

Aš pilu į šaltibarščius vandens, kadangi gaminu su riebia grietine

[LimfixitCSS]

per tirsta :)

[MrsTheTwii]

Į šaltibarščius nepilamas vanduo : D

[kristytamo]

@MrsTheTwii

As visuomet pilu!!! Jei naudoji tirta rugusi piena reikia salto virinto vandens! Jei labai nori vietoj vandens gali piena naudoti.

[besionishe]

@kristytamo aš irgi nepilu. o vaikinas tai išvis naudoja 6% rūgpienį tam ir taip pat nepila :)

[06MusicJunkie]

ist not just a LT Soup :D

cold beetroot soup is quite a typical Eastern European soup :)

there is just a different variations :)

[annhhll]

Kas i Saltibarscius pila vandeni??????

[HWMH1983]

I have one more suggestion: since I discovered the blender, I use it to prepare this soup.

[PuppyPrincess282]

netaip reike deti kefira o ne "natural yogurt"



[AlexBarton94]

I always have this when I visit Vilnius at Savas Kampas. It is my favourite!

[1glassMilk]

Yummy!! ..no  lol:D

[MrYouFailNow]

Cia ne saltibarsciai :))

Cia kazkokia .. na ka as zinau, bet ne saltibarsciai :)

[Dragunas17]

Karsta vasaros diena : salti saltibarsciai+skani geltona bulve su krapais, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[Symkius]

Blem uzsimaniau saltibarsciu dabar. :D

[cipher00012]

Otstoi.

[Junken21]

nestumk cia ne lietuviskas patiekalas cia rusu . Daryk cepelinus ar Zemaitiskus blynus ar da ka nors nestumk taip baisiai nes paskui gaunas nesamones

[kristytamo]

@Junken21

Na dauguma lietuviu tai vadina tradiciniu lietuvisku maistu. Daug rytu Eruopos saliu turi panasumu, tad nenuostabu, kad ir maistas panasus. Balnadeliai, blynai, sriubos ir pan. Visoje rytu Europoje yra panasiu dalyku it siuos.

[OlyaGuseva]

aciu, Kristina, tikrai labai skanu!

[xBartasx6x]

as noriu saltibarsciu xD

[mankirstuxx]

Saltibarsciai,- must be not boiled beetroots, but pickled and with buttermilk or kefir.... with yogurt-no way...

[egluzeboruze]

@mankirstuxx pickled beetroots??? are you nuts?! In saltibarsciai?? nonsense! Plus, natural yogurt is not a bad substitute for kefir. You go to Tesco and ask for Kefir :D I'll see what is the closest thing you can get :D 

[kristytamo]

@egluzeboruze

I've done it with pickled cos I could not find regular, but washed the pieces of beet first, so that it is not too sweet/sour. and no liquid from the jar is allowed.

[orintishka]

Sorry to watch it! I am pure lithuanian and non is doing "shaltibarshchiai" in this way!

This is total nonsense. It is the same as to bake pizza without knowing that the "basic" of pizza has to go on the bottom, but not on the top.

The order how you were putting all ingridients - wrong, and amount is also wrong...wish you good luck and improve your cooking skills.

[kristytamo]

@orintishka |I am pure Lithuanian as well. And it is made with what was at home, nice alternatives. Some ppl might not have Kefyras or so. And I dont think that the order in which u put products matter so much. It does not change the taste. You can put all the veg at the same time or separate, first beetroot or cucumber or whatever.

[UygarDokuzlar]

@kristytamo @orintishka, "pure Lithuanian" lol :-)

[icebeef]

@orintishka

How can the order of putting things to a cold dish possibly have any effect on the taste???? May be there is not only the ONE recipe for this delicious soup that you know? I tried the soup and it was yummy...I find your comment a little bit harsh. Wish you good luck and improve your commucation skills (aka politeness and respect)

[kristytamo]

@icebeef

Thank you :)

[9ops]

Labas,

When I made this, I liked it. But...

Is is supposed to be sour? I did NOT use pickled beets but it was still quite sour.

[kristytamo]

@9ops

Hi, It should not be too sour, The sour taste can be from the natural yoghurt maybe. It should taste fresh, mix natural yoghurt with water. We use Kefir instead of natural (Greek) Yoghurt. Kefir is also called sour milk, so again maybe your taste buds are not used to Kefir or natural yoghurt.

[BFDRmegejas1]

Nemoki gamint kale.... (u don't know how to cook BICH!!!!!!)

[undercoverjoe1]

Thanks Krystyamo. My Lithuanian born grandmother always had cold beet soup in the summer and hot beet soup in the colder weather. Do you make the hot beet soup differently. I remember the hot soup was not pink, but a deep beet red color.

[kristytamo]

@undercoverjoe1

Yes we have got beetroot soup as well. It is cold borsch. Basicly it is just vegetable soup with beetroot in it.

[bluestellardust]

Nice....my mom insists to add boiled potatoes to your own bowl, then add the cold soup, and top it all off with cooked eggs. She adds sour cream instead of yogurt...makes the cold soup really creamy and so, it is not for the calorie conscious!

[undercoverjoe1]

Where is the dill? My grandmother made it with LOADS of fresh dill. She did not use the eggs, though.

[kristytamo]

@undercoverjoe1

I did not have dill at that time. but yeah we use fresh dill for that.

[donatasab]

krapus pamiršo

[sexiukkee]

ta kose visai neskani gavosi :D parodziau draugei vietnamietei tai sake slyksciai atrodo:D

[kristytamo]

@sexiukkee

na as ja valgiau, ir tai nebuvo kose. toliau video ipilu vandens. tad nera tokia tirsta. Ir kiekvienoj sali yra maisto kuris neatrodo patraukliai bet zmones valgo. Skotai valgo hagi, lietuviai turi vedarus, vietnamieciai tikiu turi dar daugiau keisti maisto. tad nereikia nurasyti jei nepamegini.

[MrAmethystium]

@sexiukkee tai kad vietnamiete pasake kad slyksciai atrodo tai reikia jos nuomones klausyt? Paragautu tai pirstus apsilaizytu. yra indu kurie nevalgydami kiaulienuos lietuviskas desras kerta kaip sunys alkani ;) ir one more thing, be proud to be lithuanian.

[Armuotas]

Mmmm... šaltibarščiai :)) Skaniausias vasaros (ir ne tik) patiekalas. Tiesa dar prie šaltibarščiu dažnai būna virtos bulvės su krapais. Be bulvių tai kaip mano mama sako "atsigersi, išm...i ir vėl alkanas" :D

[MarManHollow]

Wooow :) Super super super! This IS the coldest hotness ever. Everyone should try this soup!

[kristytamo]

Yes It is very nice :) Home made especially.

[MarManHollow]

It has to be homemade! It should be made with love and care, and they very seldom do that in the restaurants. And, it MUST be fresh dill! ;)

[valiusssss]

@kristytamo oho lietuve moko uzsieniecius daryt saltibarscius :DDD

[kristytamo]

Taip :) šviečiu užsieniečius apie lietuvių tautą. :)

[MrGordonification]

@kristytamo nu visai ten jau tirsta kose ne saltibarsciai uzsienieciai prisidarys koses vietoi sriubos xD

[kristytamo]

@MrGordonification

Jei nematei vietoj kefyro naudojau naturalu jogurta, o raudonam fone parasyta tai tik alternatyvus produktas, kai nera kefyro. Beje jei butumet paziurejes iki galo video butumet pamates kad vandens ipyliau kad skystesne sriuba butu.

[MrGordonification]

@kristytamo ziurejau iki galo bet vistiek gan tirstoka nu gal jus tokia megstat xD

[kristytamo]

@MrGordonification

na kas nori tiek pila to vandens, tad zmones gali dar labiau skiesti. tirsta gavosi dar ir del to kad jogurta naudojau vietoj kefyro.

[paulmattt]

This is my all favorite clip!

[kristytamo]

Thanks !!!

[paulmattt]

Question: do you use Yogurt or sour milk?

[kristytamo]

traditionally sour milk is used, however if you do not have any sour milk or it is not available natural youghurt is a good option.

[paulmattt]

I love this one!!!

[gruvi12]

Labas Kristele,

Why don't you use sour milk? I thought this was the traditional ingredient, ne?

IKI

Gerardas

[kristytamo]

I was preparing the soup on Sunday and the Russian shop is closed on Sundays, So the product that tastes in some way similar to Kefir is natural youghurt. This is the only reason. Just because the cooking was very spontanious and i did not buy Kefir in advance.

[xmare]

I like the fact, that you didn't put the cooking pot on the cooking stove, this way is more natural, healthy kind of food!:)

[heslop01]

I made it! :D

Great tutorial - Well done :)

[cryingstars]

I tried making this today but with Kefyr (the guy next door to me is Russian and I asked him could I have his).

I liked it, the rest of my family wasn't brave enough to try it! lol ^^

[kristytamo]

Cool !! Yeah ppl are afraid of pink colour :D :D

[danos182461]

wonderful soup !!! Yummy

[kristytamo]

did u try it? and did u make it urself?

[danos182461]

I made it myself..... I liked it,

I love beetroot, my old Girlfriend was polish and i was made to eat Beetoot soup all the time..

Any more things to try??

[kristytamo]

chacha ... maybe some day i will post how to cook kugelis :D

[danos182461]

Yes please, anything new for me to try :-)

[Maskedman46]

Kristy....I am looking forward too your kugelis version and how about some kupnikas to go with it?

[kristytamo]

Still waiting for the right day as in our family only me and my mom eat potatos and my sister doesn't. So if I do it we will not have enough ppl to eat it. So was trying to kindly ask my lithuanian neighbours to do kugelis or cepellinai as their family is big :) hopefully very soon.but my neighbour doesn't want tot be on youtube :)

[XXJULIUSXX1993]

o biski cia netaip gavosi ane nes man rodos biski skistene turetu but kaip kam

[kristytamo]

na paskui dar virinto vandens ipyliau :) o plius naudojau naturalu jogurta o ne kefyra

[liuxgirl]

@kristytamo vietoj virinto vandens reikia dapilti piena.taip zymiai skaniau.saunuole esi,bet ,pripazink,nelabai tau pavyko pagaminti siuos saltibarscius.....

[kristytamo]

@liuxgirl

Studentiski tie saltibarsciai buvo :) is to ka turejom namie ir ka pavyko greitai gauti parduotuveje. Tad naturalus jogurtas tik pakaitalas. O mano mama visad virinto vandens pila, bet tiek daug nereikia nes kefyas skystesnis :)

Nesakau kad tai geriausiai gavosi, bet uzsienieciams gerai nes nevisur gali gauti kefyro, ar burokeliu is stiklainio ir pan. Vietoj krapu, petrazoliu idejau, nes neturejau krapu. Na bet man gaminimas yra daugiau tai is ka gali isnaudoti namie is to ka turi.

[tuebix]

Hmm, I'm not sure whether this pink thing should scare me off spending a semester in Kaunas ;-) Hmm, maybe I'll try it...

[kristytamo]

u should :) try

[metalinisvyras]

Ah Kristina, šaltibarščiai- meista iš danguos. Ačiu. Iki K

[kristytamo]

So you like it :D so nice :D

[Oirghialla89]

Labai aciu, i mean, i hate beets but Ive always wanted to try it since a girl i work with mentioned it, she's from Kauna or someplace and she loves it! Any chance u cud make Cepelinai next video?

[kristytamo]

xaxa cepelinai ... u also heared about it :) Well that is more difficult to do it... as soup pretty simple.

That day I was preparing this soup for my German friend and he did not like it, but he sais he is very fussy about food.

Some British ppl I know liked it very much :D

The thing is that even some Lithuanians would not like it, but this is my favourite during summer. As ppl do it only in summer. (certainly in the restaurant you could get it in winter as well)

[happydreamfreak]

Nice one!

[9ops]

Looks...interesting.

Hey, I will try anything once. Maybe I'll like it.

[kristytamo]

Text if you liked it or no :D
