Ever wondered how food keeps you warm when you live in the coldest city on Earth? In this video I take you through a real day of eating (and cooking) in Yakutsk, where winter temperatures sink below −50°C and every meal is chosen for warmth, energy, and comfort. Here, food isn’t just about taste — it’s how we get through the longest, harshest season. The coldest temperature ever recorded here was -64°C.
From steaming bowls of homemade soup to slices of frozen fish, I share what our kitchen truly looks like. You’ll come with me grocery shopping, see how we cook traditional dishes, and learn the small everyday tricks that help ingredients survive extreme cold. Life in the coldest city means thinking ahead about calories and nourishment, and hearty food has become a natural part of our culture, family routines, and sense of home.
