3 Country's People TRY Thali For the First Time With Their Hand!! (USA, Korea, China, India)

Papad is not a starter.. it’s a crunchy accompaniment. That’s why it’s spicy & salty coz it’s not meant to be eaten on its own. It’s usually eaten with rice & Sambar

Hats off to Yuki to make them understand so well to our Indian culture, cause its not easy to make them understand sometimes but she handle it amazingly well, love from India.

🥉✋😆 ...Northeast Indian food is ...so so... different as compared to mainland India .....i wish ... foreigners acknowledge them as well. Indian food varies according to it states .... (India is so diverse in people as well as their food)

In my area people usually prefer eating rice during daytime and roti at night It's always hard for single indian to define how and what Indians eat coz there's a lot of diversity so it's kinda impossible but she did her best and I appreciate that

A slight correction - Paprika would be similar to Kashmiri Red Chilli which gives the curries that distict red color but not the spice, and Capsicum is just Bell Peppers. Also, I wouldn't say papad is a starter, more like an accompaniment with creamy / less spicy dishes like khichdi, or even pulao to add spice and crunch to them. I really hope some of the not so popular dishes are shown as well, we always only see naan, tikka masala, butter chicken / paneer, etc.

It's true when mom feeds with hand... always taste better ❤

It is nice to see our culture being shown and appreciated by others😊However, as a South Indian I can say that we do not use palm leaves, we use banana leaves to eat food on special occasions.😄Also, we have few etiquette while eating with hand. We always keep our nails short and clean so that we do not ingest dirt and we wash our hands before eating food. I would also like to say that I may lick my fingers when at home in private but never in public 😄I understand it is the easiest way to clean our fingers but traditionally we use the thumb to remove food from our fingers and use index finger to remove food from the thumb and put it back in our plate and eat it. 😀I now feel old explaining these stuff, I was mostly taught these etiquette in primary school in moral science subject😂 but I say kids these days don't remember their etiquette and probably need a refresher🤭

People in the south eat on a banana leaf, not palm leaf.

Even though Papad or Pappadum is served as a started in Indian restaurants in the West, it is actually a palette clenser. So, when you are moving from one flavor to another and dont want to mix & confuse, take some bites of papad & it will neutralize the palette completely, making it ready for the new taste. That is the reason, Pappadums in South India are bit more alkaline & salty.

Thank you for having me as always ❤ The way I sometimes don’t even wanna appear on these shows cause at the end of the day whatever explanation is given is not good for India’s population. The only mistake I acknowledge I’ve made in this video is the confusion with the banana leaf and palm leaf. Other than that the optic nerves 😂😂😂 sorry, i wasnt having it that day. I meant nerve endings. Try being multilingual and then thinking for all you haters out there. Secondly all of you out there saying papad is complementary, does your mom serve you papad at home with lunch or dinner ? Or have we now normalized eating papad as a starter because it’s light on the stomach Next people saying it’s weird to have dal with naan or it’s weird to have this with that clearly do not realize India is diverse and that we all come from different families and different backgrounds meaning our eating practices will be different too. Honestly by the day I am getting sick of y’all in the comments cause please come here and do it instead of me if you think you can mention every state, every culture, every religion better. I could honestly care less. Like genuinely come and do it. I am really emotionally exhausted. This video was shot for around 2 to 2 and a half hours. A lot of what I said didn’t make it to the video. I have mentioned we eat daal with rice, I have mentioned that yogurt can be consumed with chicken at most, I have mentioned so many things for that day that we filmed for 6 hours. I have mentioned how the cheapest thaali is around 30 inr and the price can increase anyhow based on whether it’s a 5 star restaurant or not. no matter what I do, no matter what I film, no matter what I say, it’s never enough. I am sick of Indians being against Indians. There’s no right way of doing things in a culturally diverse country of 1.5 billion people. I genuinely don’t think I will appear for a long time because I am upset, sick and emotionally affected by all of you in the comments. It’s easy to type it out but obviously since none of you know how it is behind the scenes you will keep running your mouths cause that’s what you all know to do. I love how we celebrate diversity but the moment it’s showcased or explained everybody has a problem and want their way to be correct. I’m ashamed of all of youq

Honestly She explained it really well [not all of them but most of them] hat's off to her 10:39 also depends state to state , here roti is mostly consumed at morning and night, and day time is rice time

Our Desi (Indian) behen (sister) doing us proud in multiple languages. For a few things she was a little bit off, but got the main point of it all across to people from 3 countries, and did it with style and class. Kya baath.

I have read somewhere that ' A person in abroad is an ambassador of his native country. ' Yukta you have proved it and you are fulfilling your responsibility very well. Because foreigners think eating with hands is somewhat dirty but you described very that it related to Chakras and digestion. Very well explained.

So, the simple reason Indians 🇮🇳 eat with hands is BECAUSE OF PRACTICALITY. You will never see Italians eating pizza with a knife and fork or Mexicans eating tortilla with a spoon. For north Indians, our STAPLE FOOD is chapati, you have to tear it with hands and then fold things inside it. You smush veggies/meat inside it. Folding action can't be done without using hands. This is one of the most simple reasons. Once you have used your hands for it and there's already food in your hands...might as well eat rice with hands too. That's how we see it. Its kind of the same with South Indian food like dosa.

1. Eating with hand is better way to eat. 2. Sensing the food in 3 ways seeing, smelling, touching. 3 is better than 2. 3. In this show itself I seen many used to smell food before eat to better know the food, same goes for touch with hand.

Yukti didi..as a Bengali from Eastern India, we usually use banana leaves and not palm leaves. I don't think we can eat on palm leaves lol. In Bengal we also add Yoghurt to chicken and mutton. The taste is just exquisite and so much better

Im from Bengal part of india and we eat rice at lunch and roti at dinner lmao so its exactly opposite. Also here fish curries are made more often than meat curries and yes of course daal and vegetable curry is a daily staple. So in every day at lunch / dinner its usually rice/roti with some dish of daal and a vegetable curry and once a week all that with a fish curry. Different variations of curries using different vegetables and spices of course. Most of the families here (in bengal) don't eat non vegetarian food everyone so like 4-5 days a week vegetarian and 2-3 days any fish/meat /eggs. Of course some families eat fish curries every day but most families have more vegetarian based diets.

Learning about new cultures that’s an awesome mindset . Congrats ladies u rock.🤟🤟

Indian food is so diverse in nature,every state has its uniqueness in food ,taste and culture. I love my India,it's land of diversity.

all of the dishes are from punjabi cuisine but popularly attached to indian cuisine abroad . and every state leave that every city has a different cuisine or flavour palate and dishes . I hope some day they too come to the lime light like this .
