(grunts) Brazil, you know what you're doing.

Oh, ho!

Look at that.

(gasps)

- I love it.

- This looks delicious.

Holy moly.

Hi!

Yum! Yum!

Cuba know what they are doing,

now we've gotta go to Greece.

Smells delicious.

Are you hungry yet?

Hi, I'm Hannah.

I'm The World's OK-est Mom.

And if your family is anything like mine,

you might be a little sick of cooking the same five,

or six meals on rotation every week.

So, I want to shake things up.

I want to get a little international food

going in this house.

So, I'm going to ask my Instagram followers

to submit their very favorite recipe

from all over the world.

I'm gonna compile those,

and cook those for my family for an entire week.

I hope I do them justice

and I hope they taste delicious.

So, wish me luck.

The reason I'm doing this is

I want my kids to grow up

with an international palette.

I want them to be accustomed

to different seasonings and spices.

I don't want my kids to be the a-hole

at the lunch table at school,

teasing another kid for the food that they're eating.

So some of these recipes are family recipes

and our secret, so I can't share them.

But, the ones that I do have,

I will link in the description.

And finally, a warning.

This video will make you hungry.

So, don't watch it

if you haven't eaten yet.

Do not watch this on an empty stomach.

The food is delicious.

I'm having a surprisingly easy time

finding these ingredients.

There are a couple of seasonings

that I've never tried before in my life.

I got so many good food suggestions.

So, this is going to be very exciting.

So day one, we're going to Cuba.

I'm making, ropa vieja.

So I'm starting with some flank steak.

It braises for a long time

and so I need to get started kind of early.

Ropa Vieja is a dish with shredded meat

and veggies that is simmered in a tomato sauce,

with lots of amazing picklely foods added to it.

I have some really fun stuff

to add to this like,

pimentos.

I say it like pimentos but

it might be pimientos. Pimentos.

I am, single-handedly going to finish

this entire can of olives before...

Okay.

Hold on.

Hold on.

Hey, Hey! I saw that.

Wyatt, apologize.

Don't kick dirt either.

(beep) Capers!

Oh my gosh, I'm so excited for this food!

I boiled the beef in a stew

and then shredded it and threw it in our delicious sauce.

All right.

We're simmering. Beautiful!

Here she is.

Ooh. With rice!

This dish was a smash hit.

What do you think?

- It looks yummy.

- [Hannah] The boys loved it.

I knew that Wyatt would really like this dish

because he loves bell peppers and he loves beef.

So, I really wanted to start

out with something that would introduce them

to newer foods with some familiarity.

- Delicious!

- [Hannah] It's good?

Does it get a thumbs up from you?

Excellent.

Perfectly salty.

The beef was this amazing texture.

(baby mumbles)

Oh yeah? Did you like it?

Is it good?

(baby chuckles)

(laughing)

I wanted to make sure

that I did a good job and I did the recipe justice.

So I actually sent a photo

to the girl who sent me the recipe.

They said that I did great!

They said it looked amazing.

Today, it's time to give Canada some love.

We are making poutine.

I don't know why I have butter out.

Shout out to my Canadian follower

who sent me the recipe.

I was very excited to try this.

So the base of poutine is French fries

and cheese curds smothered in gravy.

The one thing I don't have is cheese curds

but the recipe came with a substitution.

We're going to use mozzarella and I have some fries

in the oven and let's get started on the gravy.

I have my butter, a butter.

I'm going to add my flour.

And, I have some cornstarch slurry,

my friends.

That means it's cornstarch and water mixed together.

It's going to thicken my gravy,

this gravy is very simple.

It's a mixture of chicken and beef broth.

Oh, okay.

I got to bring this to a boil.

Start with a whisk.

Then, I'm going to add my cornstarch slurry

and that's literally it. So easy.

Jackson is helping me with the mozzarella cheese.

Henry's doing his thing.

Wyatt is here.

Don't mind my messy kitchen, just don't look at it.

Okay. Let's get this gravy on.

It smells heavenly.

How's it tastes ?

- Good.

- It's good?

Do you think you'll clean your plate?

- Mmm-mhm.

- How could you not be excited

about cheese, gravy and fries?

(children discussing)

Mmh!

Oh man.

It was amazing.

This is the happiest comfort food.

I sent a picture to my follower.

I was nervous about the crinkle fries,

but my followers said that it really

didn't matter that I used crinkle.

And so they said I did a great job.

I'm making dessert today.

I'm making a Brazilian Brigadeiros.

What are brigadeiros?

Well, they were suggested by this lovely follower

of mine and they are a Brazilian dessert.

They're very easy.

There's only five ingredients.

And so, sign me up for that.

This is the labor of love.

You just have to continuously stir it.

Basically, you just stir this

until it thickens up.

You don't want it to burn

on the bottom and then you

let it cool to room temperature.

(drum roll)

Hot!

Okay, I don't know how anybody

has the patience to wait to roll these into balls.

I'm just eating it out of the pot!

(laughs) It's so good.

Like, there's not going to be any left for my children.

We have our cooled brigadeiros.

I'm going to butter my hand.

Oh, my gosh.

This might be too warm.

- Can I get it?

- Oh gosh, good luck.

I either took it

off the stove too soon or didn't chill it long enough.

And when I went to start

rolling the balls with the kids

everything was just flattening back out

into a pancake.

I need to chill this longer.

So, now let's give it a try.

Oh yeah, this is much better.

Oh yeah.

They're sure fun to make, though.

Aren't they?

It's always really exciting when I try something

that my tongue has never tasted before

and it was creamy and a little salty

and perfectly sweet. And so chocolaty.

This is heaven.

Brazil,

you know what you're doing.

- Amazing. Mmh! So good.

- The boys loved them.

They've asked to make them since.

We will continue to make these at home

because it's a really special, delicious dessert.

All right now, let's have dinner.

I failed today. Everybody's asleep,

and I just got carried away

from the day and didn't have any time to cook.

But, I have so much stuff that my fridge is full,

and I literally have to make this food

because I don't have room in the fridge for it.

Day four is thanks to my follower in Greece

who sent me a beautiful recipe for spanakopita.

This dish is very near and dear to my heart.

And, I'm very familiar with it because growing up,

we had a neighbor from Greece.

Hi, Hope.

Who would make it all the time

for us for special occasions,

and it was one of our favorite foods.

The first thing I have to do is

lay the phyllo dough

out on my pan oil, the edges a little bit.

It's kind of... Oh, shoot.

That's what I wasn't supposed to do.

I wasn't supposed to tear it.

It's really crazy cool though.

It's like paper.

I've never worked with phyllo dough before,

which is kind of surprising.

I cooked down my spinach

with some herbs and leeks.

I added my feta, and I put that on

my bottom crust phyllo dough.

Here's my dilemma.

She says brush on two beaten eggs,

brush them over the spinach.

I don't have a brush.

Oh! (sighs)

It's in the oven and it's going to bake

for one hour and it is 10:15 pm.

This is not a dish that you start at 9:30 pm.

Now the temptation

of this crispy, brown, golden phyllo dough

was too much for me.

And, I learned the hard way

to not taste foods

straight out of the oven.

(sizzling)

(Hannah gasps) Ow! Oh, my god.

I think this will be the key to getting Wyatt

to like spinach, I really do.

I had high hopes that sandwiching it

in this crust would make Wyatt's day.

I'm pretty impressed.

- Ooh, I love it!

- [Hannah] How's that crunch?

- Good.

- [Hannah] You like it?

- Mmh.

(crunching)

- It tastes exactly like I remember it.

Mmh!

It was flaky.

It was juicy in the middle.

It was salty,

but also super savory

and, oh! It was so good.

- So good.

- That's amazing.

- Everybody was a huge fan.

I sent a picture to my follower.

They said I did a great job.

I really hope people aren't just

being nice and not wanting to hurt my feelings,
