Been through Morocco without being in Morocco

[Aspie_With_Attitude]

How is this possible? I stayed right at home in my kitchen cooking the taste of "MORROCO", well almost by whatever knowledge I have in cooking Morocan Tagines.

Great video. Not just about the cooking either, it gives a snapshot of the average Aussie. The standard of living, cultural concepts, etc.

I struggle watching videos but pausing and looking at everything in the still image gives me a lot more insight than most people would notice. There's another online Aussie chef that I like but I can't post a link here because he swears a bit.

Nat's What I Reckon

Nat is neurodiverse and he also makes a few videos about his different struggles in life as well as doing cooking shows from his own kitchen. When he makes mistakes you can hear is girlfriend laughing at him, she's the one holding the camera. He became popular during the covid lockdowns because he's so entertaining.

Love your video! I have a clay Moroccan tagine, but I always just use an enameled Dutch oven. Dutch ovens are "American" tagines.

I have ridden trains through European countries without getting off said trains and being IN those countries

Anything that can work the same as those triangular tagine pots as shown. At the time that I filmed those videos I never owned a French Pan, which I assume are the enameled Dutch oven that you're describing.

What is a dutch oven should it be Deutsch oven Americans screwed this up years ago. Wife thought she was Dutch when I first meet her.she is Pennsylvanian Dutch. This stuff drives me nuts. I'm Dutch mother never used a Dutch oven. if she ever did she would have referred to it in her language. I do not cook wife is filling me in mother would use dutch terms for any cooking equipment. So cook books are confusing to me check dutch tea spoon. I'll stick with metric measurements as trained in chemistry.

No, Americans did not "screw this up". Americans anglicized the name. You do you. America will do American. My German grandmother, born and raised in Germany, called it a "Dutch oven".

Dutch ovens work exactly the same as tagine pots. Google Le Creuset Dutch ovens to see what I mean.

I use a comal for many Mexican ingredients. In the US, we would call a comal a griddle. Same exact thing, just different names. I use my husband's great-grandmother's ancient cast iron pancake griddle as a comal. She might have inherited it from her great-grandmother for all we know.

Small wonder for such confusion. Consider the Dutch word for "German", and even more listen to how it is pronounced: https://www.pronouncekiwi.com/Duits

It would be amusing if the origin of such a term came from the Dutch...and wasn't "anglicized".

Imagine if by chance the neighboring Dutch in Southern New York could have explained verbally who created this cooking device. Did they do so in their native language, or in American English ?

Of course I can only speculate.

Apparently, you don't realize that Pennsylvania "Dutch" people are German descendants, not Dutch. To follow your own rules, you should refer to your wife as "Pennsylvania Deutsch", not "Dutch".

Yes I'm aware that's why I told my wife she is not dutch when imert her 45 years ago Americans call them pennsylvania Dutch. Us real Dutch know the distinction. Had to correct her uncle a number of times .

I have no idea what a Dutch oven is a dutch person would not use this term at least not in dutch language.which I understand.

Dutch Oven

Can also be placed IN the coals, with coals sitting on top of lid. Makes it a true oven.

Never used one or saw one calling dutch oven seems a bit strange not something us Dutch would call it. Even the term Dutch is a bit strange misnomer as my parents came from the Netherlands which means lower lands. They called the Germans Deutschlanders. I assume Germans do not call themselves Germans.
