- It's so, so, so hot today.
Hello everyone, it's Barry here.
Welcome to My Virgin Kitchen.
Today we are tasting some more treats from around the world
that you guys have been sending me
and it is the turn of Czechoslovakia today.
Look, Czech, let me just check.
There'll be no more Czech puns in this video.
Hello, or Ahoj as Czechs would say there, Barry.
Welcome to the guide through this box.
I hope it's still intact.
I hope you'll enjoy these treats and snacks
and have a good time filming them.
But anyway, let's get straight into the Czech Republic.
This is the Czech Republic in a box, apparently.
Let me check.
No.
But seriously, (laughs) look at this.
Mmm, shoes.
Look at this level of effort.
This is Grade A stuff right here.
It's been sent in from Mathias Urban.
There we go.
Sounds like a country singer.
♫ Hey my name is Mathias Urban
♫ I'm gonna sing a song
Okay.
What?
That's a fair bit of stuff, innit?
Just to let you know, periodically,
I am diving between a huge fan which is over there
to cool me down.
Can't have me fainting on ya.
First up is a Margot.
Or Margot.
Margot sounds like a detective.
Hi, I'm Margot.
(speaks in a foreign language)
This is by Orion.
Think they made movies didn't they?
There you are.
This has got a Caribbean vibe going on.
Margot and it's also the same as a Sojove Rezy.
One of these, all right.
These two are pretty good.
Although they may taste similar, they are both different.
Margot takes you to the sunny beaches
somewhere in the tropical place
with a pina colada in your hand,
while Sojove Rezy, well, they are just soya stumps.
Well you sold that one, didn't ya mate?
Both are really popular.
I don't know, the sound of soya stumps
doesn't sound as appealing
as being in a pina colada tropical paradise.
You know what I'm saying?
I think the soya slices are a hair longer though.
All righty.
I did wonder what that was.
It looked like a big slab of butter or something.
Let's go with the tropical paradise one first.
As it's warm in here, they are gonna be quite clammy.
Yes.
Ooh, that does smell quite alcoholic actually.
Doesn't appear to be alcohol in it.
Whoa.
I'm getting like a rummy vibe.
Rummy.
Now I'm gettin' a marzipan vibe.
(splutters)
I'm not sure if there was marzipan in there
but it bloomin' tasted like it.
It had kind of like a coconutty texture to it.
Mmm, and if that's the nice one,
what does this soya stumps taste like?
Oh my gosh, look at that thing.
It's like a butch finger.
It does smell quite buttery.
Oh I've just spat that out but now I'm like, ooh.
The after taste isn't so bad.
I'm gonna try it again.
It's the texture that's doing it.
Really grainy and gritty, innit.
It's that initial feel, it does taste like marzipan
but then ugh, buttery.
Buttery stick.
Let's go with somethin' a bit more normal looking.
Havlik.
We really like breadsticks like those.
You know, just sit on the couch in the evenin',
drink beer and eat breadsticks.
Yeah, I like it.
I like that a lot.
That's basically a normal Czech, middle-aged person.
Amazing.
I think I'm instantly best mates with all Czech people.
You can't miss those on birthday parties
and parties in general.
You go someplace where a lot of people are going to be,
there are breadsticks
and these have cheese in them.
Really?
Loving how there's a huge like
pool of salt on the front there.
Really welcoming, you know?
But you can't see any hint of cheese on there.
Oh unless they're like those sort of cheesy breadsticks
which I also dislike.
It's a good start.
Smells quite innocent.
Laced with salt, look at that.
It's like there's been a bejazzled breadstick.
Can't taste the cheese in that.
That's all right.
Very, very salty though.
It's like I'm taking a shot glass from the sea
and just downing it in one.
That's all right.
Very, very salty but hey, can't taste the cheese,
all good with me.
If I wanted to make sure there was no cheese in there,
I could check the pack...
This thing excites me immensely.
(speaking in a foreign language)
Wow, that's a mouthful.
Don't want to say that with a toffee in your mouth.
I thought, when I looked at the box like that
I was like, oh my gosh I can see hazelnuts on it.
Are these like hazelnut tortillas or something like that?
Let's find out.
Okay, so these are called spa wafers basically.
Little seal thing there.
Ooh, oh my gosh.
Look.
(gasps)
It's like Christmas.
Look it actually is like some sort of
thing that you'd find in some Greek spa.
Maybe that's why it's called a spa wafer.
It's got the whole emblem thing on there.
Like a massive coin.
So, to me, it does look like there's two of these wafers
wedged together very, very thin
and there could be some sort of chocolate inside it,
hazelnutty thing, unless they're just hazelnut wafers.
Smells good though.
Do we just eat it like this?
Ooh, that's pretty good actually.
At first it was like ooh.
It's like having an ice cream wafer with no ice cream.
I'm sure there's people in the world that do that
but for me, I can't imagine that even being nice at all.
But you know, here in the UK
I did it on one of the British tasting videos.
There's these ones where you get like,
they're kinda like flying saucers we call 'em
where it's basically edible paper
with sherbet in the middle.
This is like a massive flat version of one of those.
Probably makes a really good Frisbee as well.
Okay.
Yeah.
There are little bits in it though.
I don't know if you can see it.
Just little specks of hazelnut.
I'm just gonna, oh, yeah.
There's a very thin layer of sugary nuts in it.
That's really nice.
Really, really dry though,
so the next one's got to be a drink.
But I do like that a lot.
Just feels like I'm eatin' a massive wafery coin but, cool.
I don't know about you
but I could sure go for a can of Kofola right now.
It reminds me of the phrase kerfuffle.
So he's made a little bit of an accident there,
he's in a right kofola.
Kofola original.
I'm lovin' the colour scheme on it.
Very coppery and brown, metallic vibes going on.
Some sort of splash across there.
Look at that.
Very nice.
See what we've got about this one then.
The reward, the Kofola.
It's actually a reward.
Many people refer to it like the Czech coke
or herbal Coca-cola.
And that's what it is.
Beautiful blend between coke and herbs
form an amazing picture of the Czech Republic.
Enjoy it cold with your brad sticks.
English is amazing apart from the spelling of bread there.
Actually put brad sticks.
As in Brad Pitt with sticks.
Probably a lot of women's ideal scenario, really.
So I have put this in the fridge.
We are gonna, ooh.
Instant smell, just like Coca-cola.
Let's get it in a glass.
Colour, I think we're gonna go for Coca-cola, right?
It's got to be browny.
Oh yes it is.
That was the Tom Cruise cocktail pour there.
There we go.
It does look just like coke, doesn't it?
Ooh.
I know what they're saying now about it being more herbal.
It's kinda like someone's got me a can of coke,
they stuck stinging nettles in it
and loads of other herbs,
let it sort of marinate, mingle for two weeks,
taken those out and then put it in a can,
and it is really herbal.
It's like grassy Coca-cola.
There's something more delicate about it as well.
I kinda like it.
Tangy but mild.
Coke isn't normally my number one drink of choice but
it's okay.
Let me so go check the time.
Going straight from a kofola to a kofila.
All right?
I dunno.
Original odd (speaks in a foreign language) 1923.
It's got a lady sat on a chocolate stump
drinking a coffee on there, can you see that?
So it kind of looks like she might be
preparing herself for this chocolate coffee bar?
Oh there's definitely a coffee bean there.
So he's actually doubled this up
with something called a Kavenky on here.
Now, a Kavenky, when I looked at it,
looks like two of these other ones as well.
They look very, very similar.
So we're not gonna do the Kavenky
but these ones, we'll probably look at those.
Lots of wafery, layered chocolate things.
Kofila is very smooth.
I love it.
It's a chocolate stick filled with wonderful,
black coffee filling, made out of real coffee.
Beautiful.
I think there was one in the Italian taste treat video
that was like that, (lips smacking) phenomenal.
Urgh.
Let's undress the chocolate bar.
Ooh.
Little snappy bits like this.
Well it's not gonna snap, it's so hot in here.
Look that's so melted.
(gasps)
Can you see the middle?
That is just pure coffee in there apparently.
Oh it smells so strong.
That actually smells like alcohol again.
Hang on a sec.
Oh my word.
That is so strong.
I actually feel like I've just done a shot
of coffee straight, like almost injected into me.
That's absolutely wonderful.
I kinda want to try a Kavenky now,
'cause that's so good.
Oh I well.
Oh my god.
More wafers.
Oh wow, what.
Not quite as coffee-ish as the Kofila,
but that was really, really good.
In fact I need to check the calories in these things.
Well we might as well go to these other wafers now
while they're here.
We've got the Mela.
♫ Mela
Makes me want to sing.
And the Horalky.
In Czech Republic there are three main companies
that store us with their sweets.
One of them is Sedita Horalky,
are one of the most favourite and common wafers
to grab on a trip.
Everyone is still grabbin' them for a trip
more than 50 years on.
That's quite a long sell-by date.
And Mela is basically another Sedita's minion.
Minion.
Very tasty, very creamy, that's it.
No, really.
It's just a creamy version of Horalky.
Oh you beautiful thing.
Look at that.
Just wafers with chocolate on it.
That is really, really good.
So this is like creamy friend.
Hi I'm his creamy friend.
This one's got more of a roof on it,
whereas that one's concentrating more on the sides, you see?
Creamy.
Ooh yeah.
Mmm, that is bloomin' beautiful.
There is like a, I don't know if it is cream,
but there's a very soft, white-y layer to it
that's just (moaning in approval).
Let me check the packaging.
I can't speak Czech.
It's amazing.
I have a rule when I do these videos
that I don't open anything, in the nicest way,
is not sealed in its original packaging.
Particularly when I see something like this
with a skull and crossbones in it that's been drawn on,
saying use extreme caution.
Back in your box.
Olomouckee syrecky,
also known as tvaruzky,
Olomouc creams.
Caution, do not open straight out of the box.
Put it in the fridge for at least 15 minutes
if you don't want to have your house smell for two days.
So, yeah.
Olomouckee tvaruzky are a smelly cheese
originated in the Olomouc town.
I really don't know who eats this
but it's the smelliest Czech thing ever.
Serve with powder pepper and beer.
Enjoy.
I have to put it out there,
this hasn't been in my fridge.
This has been in a box in my loft for about two months,
so I don't even know if it's edible.
I will put it in my fridge
and dogs do love them apparently,
so I think I might do a spin off video
of the dogs, in a very big field, eating this,
well away from my house.
It is so hot in here.
We're doing all right though, aren't we.
This next one is called Pernik.
I quite like that.
I'm sure there was a footballer called Pernik once.
Honey gingerbread from Pardubice Town.
It reminds me of that song.
♫ Want me to take you
♫ To Funky town
It's not Funky Town.
♫ Want me to take you
♫ To Pardubice Town
♫ Funky town
This is one of our proud Czech creations.
What have we created?
A wonderful, soft gingerbread sandwich
with a thick plum jam, called povidla.
That sounds amazing.
Povidla sounds like The Riddler from Batman, doesn't it?
I wonder if that's what they call
The Riddler in Czechoslovakia.
Batman, will he beat The Povidla?
This food's sending me crazy today,
unless I've got sunstroke.
Of course there are more flavours than just this one.
Basically every fruit you can think of.
Gooseberry?
Let me know.
Except tropical fruits has its own pernik.
Amazing.
So we have got gingerbread with thick plum jam in it.
Although from the cover, very nice.
Very nice dainty cover.
It just looks like a thick slab of gingerbread.
I can't see where the plum would go.
Let's find out.
Svetska.
For all of your hire car needs.
I sort of think the phrase Pernik
is a phrase that you would use
if you were having a little cigarette break at work.
Where's Alan gone?
Oh he's just on his pernik.
Oh look at this thing.
It's like a, it's clammy again, sorry.
It's so hot.
And it is gonna stick to my hands, yes it is.
Look at that, look at that.
I'm gonna use the wrapper to kind of help me eat it.
In fact I probably got chocolate in my teeth.
You know when chocolate's so melted
you got your chocolate on it
and it looks like you're missing a tooth anyway.
Ooh that's quite dry.
Reminds me of the Norwegian taste testing video,
that one all of a sudden.
It's got that gingerbready, cakey vibe about it.
Very nice, quite more festive.
Oh there it is.
There's a line of jam.
It's not thick at all, it's just one little thin, like meh.
Maybe they're like,
oh this one's going to some guy in England
who's gonna taste it.
Let's just give him a little smidgen.
We'll save the good stuff for us.
Hmm.
On the whole though, I think Pardubice Town
can keep this one.
It's a little bit too dry for me.
Uh, dry.
He's a one man army.
He is Delta Crupky.
(laughing)
If you can't get into your front door,
why don't you get yourself a crupky.
It looks like a crisp or something.
Crupky (speaks in a foreign language), 100 grammes.
So it tells you the weight, boom.
That's one of its biggest selling points,
is the weight I presume.
Oh.
This doubles up with another one.
Straznicke Bramburky,
with a huge garlic cloves on the front, look at that.
Although these are both something different,
they share one same feature.
They both used to be pro wrestlers
in a previous life or something?
No, although that would be weird.
They last forever.
Well I'm not even surprised.
They are both nothing but oil
and the crisps are conserved in the garlic fumes
that are protecting them from anything.
Wow.
So does that mean that the ultimate shield in battle
in Marvel movies, could just be garlic.
Garlic Man.
If you're a fan of garlic,
Straznicke Bramburky is the ones
or Crupky are basically peanut puffs,
like Cheetos, but peanut.
I don't like Cheetos 'cause they're covered in cheese,
so I might love these.
Cor blimey.
That was like running my nose along a garlic clove.
Crikey that is strong.
Garlic-flavored crisps.
Oh.
You see the thing is for me
and I hope a lot of people are like this,
the smell of garlic is not the best.
I mean, I don't hate it
but whoa that is strong.
But it tastes like garlic bread
and that is phenomenal.
These are essentially, to me,
Hello, Peter Hobza.
these, has that got his phone number on it?
Hi, I'm Peter Hobza.
If you'd like to ring me and let me know personally
what you think of my garlic crisps.
These just taste like garlic bread crisps.
Phenomenal.
But yep, they sure do stink.
Anyhow, back to the Crupky.
We just dived away from that didn't we?
We went straight down garlic town.
We're now at Crupky Times okay?
So these are like Cheetos but peanut flavour.
Ooh, do you see that?
Sort of like more airy, minion shape.
Or maybe peanut.
(gasps) That's right!
That's why they're cooked in like peanut oil
because they're maybe supposed to look like peanuts as well.
It just basically smells like peanuts.
Wow.
I can't work out if I like that or not.
Yeah, I don't know.
They melt in your mouth.
It's like someone's got a pot of peanut butter,
dumped a load of salt in with it,
mixed it together
and I'm just eating it straight out,
with nothing to try and lubricate it a little bit
so it's thick and clammy.
It's sticking to the roof of my mouth a bit.
I gotta be honest with you, Crupky.
I'm not nuts about you,
but as an alternative to Cheetos you know, maybe.
I do like these garlic crisps though.
They just bloomin' stink.
So there's three left to go, okay,
and one of them that Mathias has sent,
there's actually two versions.
It's called a Deli, Deli double XL.
Well there's actually apparently a pistachio,
a chocolate and a hazelnut version
and it would be easy for me to just take
the hazelnut version, 'cause you know how much I like that.
He didn't send me the chocolate one, which is fine.
So this is the pistachio one.
If you thought there was nothing sweeter than sugar itself,
you were wrong.
There is Deli.
It's one of the most popular Czech sweets from 1980,
starting with three different flavours,
pistachio, chocolate, hazelnut,
and it is still relevant.
If you can recognise that slight pistachio taste
in a sugar avalanche.
Sugar avalanche?
Yeah, cool.
You're sure have a good time.
Thank you.
Love the packaging, love it.
Ah, look at this.
Big ol' bar.
They've all got that same slightly cheeky
alcohol-y vibe going on.
Oh my gosh.
It is like Incredible Hulk green inside, look at that.
The packaging did not lie.
(moans in approval)
He's right, though.
He's saying if I can actually taste the pistachio
in this, I have a good tongue
and it is really cleverly hidden.
You can get the vibe of it.
But without that, you would just think no,
that's just creamy chocolate baby.
More kind of like a mousse-y vibe actually.
We have got two more left.
This one is called the Horicke Trubicky, (laughs)
which basically translates to tubes from Horace.
I used to know someone who had a dog called Horace.
Horace, (whistles) come here!
I've just summoned the pugs.
Maybe I should of called you Horace.
Huh?
Anyhow, these are tubes made out of very delicate dough
filled with variations of fillings.
They got the name after a town Horace, under
(pronounces word in a foreign language).
Sorry pronunciation, Mountains.
The original one here is chocolate.
Even in this time they are all made by hand.
The tradition just must be kept.
That's cool.
So this has physically been made
by a Czech person's Czechy hands.
Czech-cellent.
Wahey!
Oh.
They look a bit like dog food.
Look at that.
They look like those, is it boney-oh treats?
It's a big, long ol' shaft.
It's wafery but light, yes.
Also could double up as a cigar I suppose.
I'm gonna snap it in half.
See?
Chocolatey bits in there.
It's like someone's taken a huge cylinder of chocolate
and hand-rolled it up into a carpet of wafer.
Ooh, that is beautiful.
It's really rich, it's really naughty.
It's got a slight powdery vibe
in the sugar going on as well.
This filling, it just melts in your mouth.
Oh.
It's like it's turned into some sort of hot chocolate.
I don't know if it's a combination of all the food
that I've had already,
or whether it's just quite a filling thing,
but just by having these bites I'm like
I'm kinda done with you now.
I'm done with you, Horicke Trubicky.
Horicke Trubicky.
Just gonna freshen the taste buds with some Kofila.
Oh no this was Kofola wasn't it?
Sorry Kofila was the other bar-y thing.
Kafila and Kofola should be some sort of like,
kiddies TV show.
I'm Kafila and Kofola.
If that TV show exists,
I'm gonna have to check it out.
I'm really sorry about the Czech puns in this video.
So, last up, we are gonna have a bar
of that well known opera singer, Ledove Kastany.
♫ Ledove Kastany
Ledove Kastany actually translates to ice chestnuts.
I kid you not.
Unless Mathias has used Google Translate,
which could translate it to anything.
It could be like a shoe for all I know.
Mathias you have done a phenomenal job
of these descriptions on this video.
Have you ever had such a sweet tooth
that you had to eat chocolate within chocolate?
Then he's put, No?
Oh yeah.
Well now you can.
You should do the voiceover Mathias,
from my gadget videos when I review them.
That'd be great.
It's very popular Czech sweet
that has nothing to do with chestnuts.
It's just a bit of banter.
I know, let's confuse them.
Let's call it Ice Chestnuts.
Yeah that sounds like a cool name.
It's also used when making a chocolate coating,
for example, a cake.
Ooh, so people would melt that up
and put it on a cake.
The smoothness inside makes the coating creamy
and the chocolate around is making it more sticky.
Check this out.
It's my postman.
He probably hears me getting really excited
when he posts a letter,
like oh wow that's phenomenal.
I bet he wonders what the heck I'm doing in here.
I'm just eating chocolate baby.
That's what they all say.
Look at you.
You are sophisticated.
Look, each chunk as got a nice ribbed line, like so.
It's time for a bite.
♫ My mind's telling me no
(moans with approval) Oh my God.
♫ But my body
♫ Baby yeah
That is absolutely phenomenal.
I always try to save the best 'til last
and this is ridiculously stonking.
It is a chocolate bar, with chocolate inside it
and the humidity of this room
has merged it and made the two become one.
Spice Girls in a chocolate bar.
That is just so good.
That might be one of the most simplest but greatest
chocolate bars I have ever had
on any of these tasting videos
from all around the world so far.
Absolutely phenomenal.
So why don't you check in your local supermarket
or online, if you can get some ice chestnuts
aka Ledove Kastany.
Phenomenal.
Either that or we could help my friend Mathias out
by peddling out some sort of online Czech treat box
so yeah, Mathias I think you're gonna get
bombarded by requests now.
Leave your details down below,
let everyone message you,
sell these for double the price,
you might sell three or four.
I need to go for a big run now
to burn off all this chocolate
but I'm gonna put that in the fridge
and have some of it later.
There we are then folks,
another tasting treat video in the bag.
Ledove Kastany, absolutely phenomenal,
but I also did really like these wafer plate-y nutty things
because they tasted like paper, they tasted innocent,
felt good and they doubled up as an amazing Czech Frisbee.
Don't forget to check out the rest of the other
tasting videos to date
on the playlist up here and down below,
and if you are from a country
and you'd like to send,
well I'm sure you're from a country,
but one that I haven't tasted from ideally,
and you'd like to send me some treats,
message me on my website, myvirginkitchen.com
on the contact form.
We'll have a little chat and hopefully I'll review it
in a future video.
Thanks for watching guys.
Remember subscribe for regular recipes and food fun.
And I will see you again,
next time.
So, so good.
