Georgian Khachapuri

@omnivorousadam

🇬🇪Georgian Cheese Bread (“Adjaruli Khachapuri”)🇬🇪 When I first saw a picture of this Georgian delicacy I thought, “wow that think looks unique and fun to eat but probably doesn’t taste much different than a mozzarella stick.” Man was I wrong. Picture this, an enriched dough that’s cooked hard and fast in the oven and inside a steaming mound of multiple cheeses than melts into a tangy, fatty river destined for your mouth-hole. Then the whole thing is finished with an egg yolk and pad of butter. Insane. This cheese bread is thought to date back to the 12th century when Georgia went through the renaissance. The word “khacha” in Georgian means “curdled cheese” while “puri” comes from Indian meaning “bread.” Link the two words together and bam, you got yourself a dank cheese boat. Give this one a whack, you’ll be glad you did. Let me know if you have any questions. You got this. 🤘🏼 Adam Servings: 4, 10 inch khachapuri Serves 4 For the Filling… 1 pounds Low-Moisture Mozzarella, grated 1/2 pound Full-fat Mozzarella, grated 1/2 pound Feta, crumbled 2/3 cup Water For the Bread… 1/2 cup Water, 105F (115g) 1 cup Whole Milk, 105F (250g) 2 tsp Active Dry Yeast (7g) 2 tsp Sugar (10g) 1 Egg, beaten 2 Tbsp Olive Oil (20g) 4 cups Bread Flour (610g) 1 tsp Kosher Salt (4g) 4 Egg Yolks, divided 4 Tbsp Unsalted Butter, divided ***Unfortunately, the character limit won’t let me post the entire technique here. The FULL WRITTEN RECIPE is in my website for you – www.omnivorousadam.com. Let me know how it turns out. #khachipuri #georgianfood #learnontiktok #cooking #georgiantiktok #omnivorousadam

West Africa Fried Wagasi Cheese

@madcultured

Spotlight: Wagashi cheese! This West African cow’s milk cheese is so yummy fried and dipped into a rich tomato and pepper sauce. Don’t let white supremacy and colonialism fool you into thinking that good cheese comes from europe #wagashi #cheese #friedcheese #african #westafrica #allcheesesarebeautiful #fyp #cheesetok

WAGASHI RECIPE : West African Cheese I stay in a town where a part of it is fully occupied by the Fulani people, hence getting a freshly squeezed cow’s milk isn’t a problem at all. Ps: Incase you’re wondering why we didn’t use the leaves, it’s because we wanted the wagashi to not have a change in color especially if you wouldn’t be coloring it at the end of the day. Using the branches gives you the beautiful white color with no traces of greens like it happens when you use the leaves 🍃. . . #wagashi #westafricanfood #ghanaianfoodnetwork #homecheff_

Swiss Fondue

@mindblownfacks

Have You Heard Of Switzerland’s Fondue Police In Switzerland, fondue isn’t just a meal, it’s a national treasure with strict rules enforced by an unofficial “fondue police.” Swiss law actually regulates the proper way to melt cheese, ensuring traditional methods are preserved. According to the Swiss Cheese Union, authentic fondue must use a precise blend of cheeses like Gruyère and Vacherin, melted with white wine and garlic. Adding other ingredients or techniques can be considered a culinary crime. The rules go beyond ingredients. Stirring the pot counterclockwise or letting the cheese burn at the bottom is frowned upon, and dipping anything other than bread—like vegetables or meat—might earn you side-eye from purists. While there’s no actual jail time for fondue violations, Swiss tradition takes cheese seriously. This obsession with perfection ensures every fondue pot delivers the rich, creamy experience Switzerland is famous for. So next time you melt cheese, remember: in Switzerland, there’s a right way and many, many wrong ones. #cheese #swiss #foodie #fondue #cheeselovers #switzerland #rules #police #culinary #shorts #short #trending #trendingshorts #viralvideo #viralshorts #fyp #shortvideo #shortvideos #didyouknow #didyouknowfacts #mindblown #facts #mindblowing #fact #mindblowingfacts #funfacts #funfact #edutok #historytok #sciencetok #tiktoklearningcampaign
