00:00Hi, today we will visit one of the best traditional Yakutian restaurants,
00:04Chichur Muran, and we will show what we usually eat in the coldest city Yakutsk.
00:12This is traditional Yakutian hunting lodge. Yakutian men can't live without hunting.
00:18They usually build their own hunting lodge in the middle of the forest. This lodge is
00:23usually filled with stuffed animals to represent their trophies. According to our traditions,
00:29we worship and appreciate nature. At the start of the meal, we give traditional Yakutian pancakes
00:35to the fire as a tribute and blessing to the spirit of fire, which protects us and keep us warm.
00:43Because of our cold climate in Yakutia, it's almost impossible to grow fruits and vegetables.
00:48Yakutian cuisine is made of dairy, meat, fish, and wild spears. Meat and fish is often eaten raw
00:56in a lightly frozen state. One of the best known Yakutian dishes is stroganina,
01:06a long thin slices of frozen arctic river fish. When it's time to slice, we hold this fish vertically
01:13and carve in long strokes using a traditional Yakutian knife. The taste is very soft, fresh,
01:20and frosty and very nutritious. Another Yakutian delicacy is frozen raw, fall, meat and liver. The history
01:37of the Yakutian horse is inseparable to the history of the Yakutian people. Out of all types of meat,
01:44only fall is considerably suitable for eating raw. This has been an important dish, helping my ancestors
01:51to survive in these extreme conditions. It's very tasty. Well, we used to eat ourselves, so we can't
02:01say what it looks like. It's a regular meat, but it's not fried, it's spicy, and it's also eaten in a spicy meat.
02:10One of the main dishes is the car rice fish. It's one of my favorite Yakutian dishes. We usually fry it,
02:20and the most delicious, fatty and nutritious part is the fish roll.
02:30It's very crusty, very fat, very tasty and healthy.
02:34For dessert, we eat kurta, which is made of whipped cream and frozen cowberries. Yakutian people harvest wild
02:44berries during the short summer and freeze it to eat it during long and cold winters.
02:49It's very nice. It looks like a cream. Let's try it. It's very tasty, airy. In Yakutia,
03:02we usually make desserts from milk products. An important dish of Yakutian festive table is salamat. It's made of butter and flour,
03:13similar to the sauce pachamel. It's usually eaten with bread, and it's the fattest Yakutian dish,
03:19which helps us keep warm during our extremely cold winters.
03:28This Yakutian traditional drink, kumis, is fermented mayor's milk. It has a unique sour taste with a
03:35slightly alcoholic punch. It's usually served cold in a traditional Yakutian cup.
03:40It's a kislamolodic product. It tastes like... a dose.
03:47We invite you to Yakutia to try our national food.
