You get jota – and honestly, it might be the best thing we've ever made. In this video, Aaron and Petra head to a Slovenian grocery store to pick up all the ingredients, and then cook jota from scratch together at home. From kidney beans and sour turnip to kobasa sausage and bacon, this hearty Slovenian stew had us completely blown away. One of the biggest things that surprised Aaron during the cooking process was just how different the grocery shopping experience is in Slovenia compared to the US. The vegetables came covered in mud and dirt straight from the farm – something you would never see in an American supermarket where everything is cleaned and processed before it hits the shelves. That cross-cultural difference alone made for a fascinating moment in the video. As an American living in Europe, Aaron is always discovering new things about Slovenian food, culture, and everyday life – and this time, Petra got to guide him through one of Slovenia's most beloved comfort food dishes. The result? A steaming bowl of jota that had both of them going back for seconds. Aaron even challenges anyone who thinks Americans can't cook to watch this video and think again. Whether you're here for the European reaction to American culture, or you're a European reacts type of viewer who loves seeing the flip side – an American fully embracing European traditions – this video is for you. This is a Slovenia reaction to real home cooking, and it does not disappoint. If you've been watching our channel for a while, you know that Aaron and Petra bring an honest, funny, and heartfelt look at life between two very different cultures. This video is no different.
