Pleasure to you from Egypt 🇪🇬
🎺🧊🎺
Love the content, but that background music is very annoying.
I won't eat what you cooked , you are not a clean cook. You are touching your hair with your cooking fingers 🤣
we have something like it in old Mesopotamia(mersu) and modern day iraq call it (halawat tamuru) now we added sesame to it
I used to eat nuts and dates together. Adding honey would make it too sweet for me.
Awesome I should make some yumm
why would tiger nut balls not contain tiger nuts?
Aphrodisiac huh? Turn a man in Saget in the sack. Tiger !Tiger! Bust a 🥜 Egyptian Lover ❤️
Brasil !!!!
This is truly an interesting recipe.
And also I find it very hard to be a mature adult after hearing some of this dialogue. 😛
Nice :))
Grind the walnuts (or pistachio) instead of chopping it, it will make the balls softer and less chewy. You might stuff a piece of the nut inside. Also, use a type of dates with much more syrup in it and add milk instead of water (it will balance the mixture's sweetness).
There is a similar thing here in India. The normal people usually don't use almonds and walnuts (very costly), instead they use peanuts and jaggery syrup instead of honey (Financial status plays a huge role in ingredients used). It is very common and also sold readymade. It's usually very hard and very very sweet. And used as instant energy booster as well. I don't like them personally as the peanuts get stuck in teeth.
You gotta be kidding me….
It makes me sick when I see those things
I love this whole concept of "Ancient Eats." What an interesting subject! It makes me wonder about archaeologists a thousand or more years from now when they excavate sacred burial chambers and wonder about the religious meaning of the inscription "7/11". They would be amazed at the variety of perfectly preserved foods that never decomposed, especially the little golden sponge cakes with white creamy substance on the inside. Doctorate dissertations would be written on how the high priests repeated the words "Slurpee" as a magical incantation, while they pulled a lever releasing the sacrificial fluids. They could learn a lot about this lost culture from the wooden rack of still readable scrolls showing motorized two wheel vehicles, weaponry and most importantly the face painting of the females from this lost civilization.
After downing a few Tiger Nut Balls, what would the ancient Egyptians drink? Beer? Wine? Date shake?
Geert deserves another Tiger Nut Ball for bringing up the "food pyramid!!!!
you two are adorkable… and yeah, I think I might try this recipe, danke!
Great video, very interesting!
Yum! Sounds delish!
Do you work at a museum or where do you work?
This recipe was passed down to the ancient Egyptians by their extra terrestrial overlords.
You forgot one ingredient: sand. That stuff was literally everywhere.
Awesomeness, look forward to more ancient food. Please
"Food Pyramid" hahahahahaha! And FINALLY Geert gets to eat in one of these videos! I mean, Raven…you're ALWAYS feeding Judyta! THIS is basically what I envisioned when I said there should be…uh…"Ancient Eats" (GREAT branding by the way! Love the altered visuals and the Dig IN With Raven – GENIUS!) when you were playing the ancient board games! Had your back, Geert! Raven…you cook like I do. Girls have made fun of me for having a bowl/container for each ingredient THEN mix them together. I was thinking, MAYBE they were called Tiger Nut Balls because that's the SIZE they originally made them in? And were reminiscent of? For some people? OH! And wide ranging trade routes for…BANANA OIL? No? Okay.
Love this new series! 👏🏻I’m very tempted to try and make these now!😱😍👏🏻
Look into rischert, seriously old 'recipe' that I can trace one of my family recipes back to – remains found in a bowl in the salt mine in Hallstadt.
Wow! I am pumped!
I’m definitely going make these!
Love the history lesson along with the cooking! Great work
Love this! so proud!
Nice
Interesting video. Maybe garum next time?
🌈 nice and awesome, loved watching… thanks 👌👌👌
Did you look at " Kitchen of pharaoh" published in American University of Cairo?. It is so useful on this topic.
and also we need more videos about ancient punt and Puntites. I've written my dissertation on this land and Hatshepsut's Punt expedition.
A new series! How exciting!
Wake up at 4am grab my phone hit YouTube at the exact time for a new raven video lol
