Wilderness Cooking on YouTube is your new go-to cooking show that offers not just delicious dishes, but an ASMR experience coupled with exhilarating vistas. Watch Tavakkul, a native of Azerbaijan, living in his sustainable home in the high-mountain village of Qamarvan. Aside from his own livestock, he has his own natural water well, smoker, and make-shift spit. His cooking show is a feast of every kind of livestock animal, cooked over an open fire, under the ground, in a bucket, or in a myriad of contraptions that he created by hand, whether they are carved from wood from the surrounding forest, or forged in his backyard. One of the very unique aspects of his cooking is that he never speaks as he cooks — he is completely immersed in his cooking and all we hear are the sounds of nature as he chops, sears, and prepares herbs from his garden to add to the delicious meal that he is preparing. The episodes are not without their surprises — he has visitors every time he cooks, whether it’s a group of children eager to have their lunch or a condor that decides to accompany him as he prepares a meal in the middle of the forest. The episodes on YouTube inspire anyone who wants to co-exist with nature and leave the urban sprawl behind. Tavakkul is surrounded by animals, clear skies, and lush greenery that makes his sustainable lifestyle very appealing — also, his handmade cookware is on sale on his website.
