In the Netherlands, chocolate sprinkles (Hagelslag), is usually eating at breakfast or lunch by children and adults alike, but it's almost never toasted . Just bread, butter and hagelslag. Enjoy! 😄
ik heb dat echt in jaren niet meer gegeten, eigenlijk sinds ik niet meer thuis woon. maar ikzelf vond een beschuitje met hagelslag altijd een stuk lekkerder dan brood met hagelslag
We had Hagelslag in the Netherlands in the 1990s and we loved it! I managed to buy it online in December for my son's 34th birthday - he was so excited! 😊
I grew up in Germany, but near the boarder to the Netherlands and to this date my parents send care packages with dutch sweets and hagelslag. Iconic breakfast for all ages!
I am a Burmese from Myanmar and I was so excited and happy as soon as I saw Mohinga while I was watching this. As a fan of your channel, I've always wanted you to try our food one day. So I am really happy that you all have finally noticed our country and tasted our favourite national dish. I'm glad that you liked it. And for the broth, it depends on your liking. You can definitely add more broth (that's how I'd like to eat😊). There are some variations of cooking Mohinga based on the region as well. There are a lot more Burmese food you should try. Always thank you for your great contents🇲🇲🩵.
Idk if you still live in Burma or not but do you still call the country Burma or do you say Myanmar, my burmese friend who I fish with here in Norway almost refuses to call it myanmar never heard him say it except for when I have asked, so wonder if that is just him or if people in Burma/myanmar have a preffrence aswell ^^
@@moldveien1515 Yes, I live in Myanmar right now. Actually, 'Burma' was the official name of our country until 1989 and people including natives used to call the country as Burma. 'Myanmar' is the current official name of the country and we use it most of the times. But, we sometimes use the name 'Burma' when we have to say the name of our country in English because we think it's easier to pronounce for foreigners and a few of people became to recognise our country as they had heard about 'Burma' in the history or books. That's why sometimes we introduce our country as 'Myanmar, also called Burma' (◠‿・)-☆
Hagelslag (chocolate sprinkles) can definitely be found at a breakfast table at a restaurant or hotel. Usually when you order a breakfast with some eggs, slices of bread and a croissant.
Burek! The kind you had is called "šareni" or colourful burek, because it's mixed with potatoes and onions, and the true original is just meat, onion and spices. But there are lots of different varieties, like potatoes and onion, cheese, cheese and spinach (that one is known as Greek spanakopita), and sweet varieties like apple or even Nutella (so Barry wasn't that much off actually :D). Also, there is a region-wide controversy around what can actually be called burek. Purists say it's just the meaty one, and everything else is pita - which has nothing to do with pita bread but basically translates to pie. But normal people don't care and just have it for breakfast, lunch, dinner and at 4am to soak up the booze :) That was my short burek insight, thanks for reading haha
@@slatkasarmica There are no seeds on burek, or any other pita in Bosnia! When it bakes, we cover it with a damp cloth and thats pretty much it. Some pitas are soaked in hot milk when baked, but not burek.

you should do fairy bread next time to throw them for a loop - literally just Hagelslag but with multi coloured sprinkles, and puts it on the other side of the world in Australia as a party food :P
I mean.... we also use chocolate sprinkles at times. Can't beat fairy bread. It needs to be sitting out for at least 15 mins before you eat it though to get the full birthday experience 🤣
Can I just say I appreciate the maps added so much, Im terrible at geography but love learning about new foods and where they are from! Went to a Romanian shop the other day and got some cheeses to try because you guys inspired me, hope one day I can start travelling to some of these places and trying these foods
I am so happy to see Maldives on Sorted Food! Disk is actually the slang term for the flat bread which is actually called Huni Roshi. Huni is desiccated coconut and roshi is our flatbread. I can't express how happy I am that the boys got to eat my absolute favorite breakfast dish!
Few notes as a Dutch viewer: The pronunciation was just hilarious. Also, there's SO much on there! No Dutch dad would ever allow you to put THAT much on. But cool that you showed it :) Also, the sugarcoated fennel seeds are also still sold, they tend to get used a lot when celebrating a recent birth.
when i saw the sprinkles, i immediately thought - the netherlands! 🍩 i’m from indonesia, which used to be a dutch colony, so having bread & sprinkles (we often use margarine instead of butter) for breakfast is very common here 😋 in indonesia, we call the sprinkles “meses”, which originates from the dutch word “muisjes”. both words are pronounced the same way :)
I didn't know that! I'm next door to Indonesia (Australia) and we do this for children's parties using coloured sprinkles. I wonder whether we got this from Europe or whether we got the idea from Indonesia?
@@kwoylee5617 since it originates from the netherlands, it could be something that was brought by the european explorers & immigrants (with dutch ancestries) who came/moved to australia a long time ago 🤔
As an American, I was always so confused about the whole toast and chocolate sprinkles thing in the Netherlands. Until I learned that their sprinkles actually are chocolate and taste like chocolate. In America, chocolate sprinkles are like carnuba wax and sugar with maybe just enough cocoa powder to turn them brown. They taste like nothing.
Depends on where you get them but tbh it's quite the same....most are extremely sugary. You CAN get some decent ones but it's not really the standard"^^ There's also fruit flavoured ones hehe
That's about everything in America. Just sugar and grease. Like Americans complaining about licorice because American licorice is just black dried shit
I get that, but to us, even what you call chocolate, as in a chocolate bar tastes like barf most of the time, because in america there is butyric acid in it, that is banned in europe. I feel sorry for you, honestly
As a Dutchie I would like to congratulate Jamie for when he threw most of the hagelslag off of the bread. Those slices were too loaded! You got to have balance between the bread, the butter and the hagelslag.. C'mon guys, I didn't expect to have to explain this to the likes of Sorted 😛
Happy Anniversary Sortedfood, thank you for uploading your incredible and insightful videos as well as recipes. Wish you all the best and keep up the amazing work.
Love seeing a Bosnian dish! Although I find it a bit odd, that there was sesame seeds and allspice added. I’ve never seen that before - especially not in Sarajevo burek/pita. Salt, pepper and Vegeta(Balkan spice mix), are really the main spices of Bosnian cuisine. For a real Sarajevo breakfast experience you have to try furdenjača :D
I thought it was burek when I saw it, but the mention of allspice threw me. The sesame seeds don't belong either...... And some places will argue that i shouldn't be in a spiral like that, though my local burek guy (I live in Croatia) makes them like that. But greasier. They're sooo good!
I thought that was cheburek from Lebanon because of those spices. Some Serbs put sesame seeds on gibanica, but never on burek. Not even Bulgarians use those spices in their banjitsa.
I was so excited to see Hagelslag!! I'm from Germany but my mum comes from a town right by the Dutch border, so that was our breakfast whenever we went and visited my grandparents there. Definitely a hit of nostalgia for me, I should see if I can find some good sprinkles so I can have it again.
My partner and I absolutely LOVE joining in with guessing the countries and getting quite competitive and have on more than 1 occasion had to pause a video to work out who was closest. We have also started using the Sorted app and it was fun cooking and having Ebbers talk us through it, love you all!
As a Bosnian myself, I love seeing our food represented! However, I do not claim this Burek.. I have never seen Burek quite like this before haha love to see it anyway!
Same, the look was the first thing that didn't look quite right (sesame seeds I've never seen on a burek) and then they said there was potato in there with the meat and that's not natural, it's a mix of krumpirusa and burek which is probably really really tasty but not quite right
Both of those are mentioned on its wiki though and show up in a few different recipes from a quick google. Not to say you're wrong obviously, but they've not pulled it from nowhere. It seems to always be a problem with the boys doing unfamiliar international dishes is they inevitably get flack for it not being the dish as some people recognise it
@@Southpaw535 Sure, there might be a recipe, but I'll stake my life thay you wouldn't this recipe in 99.95 bakeries that make it, and that might even be a low-ball.
Serbian here. Never seen sesame seeds (or any seeds) on a burek either. I live in Sweden, though, and here some enterprising Balkañero has had the genius idea to marry burek with pizza - basically: pizza toppings such as cheese and ham, tomato sauce and oregano, used as burek filling. Must say it's delicious. Still not as good as the classic Ex-Yu bureks, but a worthy contender.
This Burek reminded me of the type I tasted in Slovenia quite often. They also have a type that's filled with cheese, which is my favourite. Whenever I visit the country, it's my go to breakfast 😊
I remember the first time I visited my aunt in Canada and her new husband was Dutch! When I watched him and his two daughters add chocolate to their bread in the morning I was a child that was suddenly in heaven! Made me instantly want to move to Holland until they made me eat their black licorice candies hahahaha! Now I want to go for completely different reasons but this episode brought back some lovely memories! Love the series!
There are also sugar coated anise seeds that are called "muisjes" and are often used to celebrate/announce the gender of babies (because they come in pink and blue colors) on round bits of rusk (beschuit) (beschuit met muisjes) These are different than the sugar coasted anise (anijshagel) Hagelslag also comes in a fruity flavor, and there are also chocolade vlokken (chocolate flakes) which some prefer over the hageslag.
It's so funny to hear your prounanciation of burek 😁. I'm from Croatia and we love a good burek here for breakfast,lunch and dinner. But the bosnian ones are the best..
Burek is an awesome dish and one of the most popular foods in the Balkans. Grew up on this stuff in Croatia. We call all versions of the dish burek, but in Bosnia it's only the meat version that's called burek. The rest (cheese, potato, spinach etc versions) are actually called 'pitice' or 'little pies' (roughly translated). All equally delicious though and yes many versions of how the filo pastry is rolled.
As a Maldivian I love that Maldives has made the channel, especially as someone who has been watching Sorted for so many years. Would love to see more good like rihaakuru being featured. :)
The first dish is usually eaten in the home, not very often you will eat it in restaurants you can but it is not normal to do that. Loved the guesses from the boys as someone who lives in the Netherlands and who eats it every day!😂
@@SortedFood In hotels you often have 1 serving cartons with either chocolate sprinkles, aniseed sprinkles or fruity sprinkles, but the word Hagelslag is usually reserved for chocolate and anijshagel and vruchtenhagel for the other flavors. They are also popular in custards and on cakes.
It's common to see congee as a breakfast staple for chinese people, but I think you guys should explore Macaroni and ham soup from Hong Kong! The story behind that and other HK breakfast items is super cool!!
Jamie's eyes rolling up when Barry says 'closer together' re Afghanistan/Sri Lanka guesses was me during every guess as I tried to access some sort of world map inside my brain (& failing miserably often as not despite a geography GCSE) Really love these videos introducing new dishes & taste combinations from countries I'll never get to visit myself.
I LOOOVE this format! I would loooove to see a video where Ben and Kush are in the hot seat, with Poppy showing them potato dishes from around the world......
As a Belgian, can confirm that hagelslag is really popular here, too 🤓 good toasted bread, proper butter and dark sprinkles is heaven! Fun fact: around here we also call them "muizenstrontjes", which translates to mouse droppings 😵
As a Dutchie, get the somewhat more expensive chocolate sprinkles (less sugar!), get some good bread, butter and peanutbutter from Calvé or whichever you like. All together, this equals heaven on a plate. ESPECIALLY WITH TOASTED BREAD. 😁
Happy anniversary Sorted!! Thank you for years and years of delicious recipes, hilarious videos and just excellent content! I’m looking forward to more in the future 😊
I remember going to the supermarket in Amsterdam with my Dutch friend who I was visiting. The chocolate sprinkles were in the breakfast food aisle, near the cereals, and not with the baking ingredients. I was very confused, but then delighted when he described exactly this breakfast!!
That’s enough hagelslag for two slices. That’s not the way to do it. (But yes represent!!) I am the ambassador of hagelslag 😂 I would also recommend pink and blue ‘Muisjes’ sprinkles it’s a tradition to eat it to celebrate when children are born. Blue for boys and pink for girls.
Honestly would love a video of the boys reviewing all kinds of Hagelslag, they still sell the anis flavoured ones and lots of other cool flavours. I think the most cool variation of Hagelslag is known as "beschuit met muisjes" (rusk with mice) which is the OG Gender/Sex reveal party. Its little crunchy sugary anis balls covered in a white and blue / pink coating on top of a very crackery style breakfast circle called a "beschuit" (apparently called rusk in english) which you are expected to feed to your guests at a baby shower. They even sell an orange version of the "muisjes" for Kings day over here.
It's typically served *after* the child is born, while gender reveal parties are usually held before the child is born. (Are gender reveal parties now a thing in the Netherlands? I thought this was only done in the US).
"This is something my 4-year-old would have thought of" 😂I still tease my Dutch girlfriend about literal sprinkles on bread. Not quite as silly as putting cookies (speculaas) on bread though...one baked good on top of the other! As a funny aside, I'm from Greece and am absolutely offended at Jamie thinking hagelslag is our fault lmaooo.
Hagelslag!! I grew up in Southern Ontario (Canada) where we have large number of Dutch Immigrants, including my grandparents. This (and the white powdered anise and the fruity sprinkles) was something I very much looked forward to eating for breakfast when I went to visit Oma and Opa ❤
Just from the third dish. I hope you guys eventually do something with Lefse as a bait and switch. Its Scandinavian potato tortilla (visually) of sorts but is very much on a different scale of savory as its potato based and is one of the best things I have ever eaten rolled up with just a small amount of butter spread on the inside. Edit: Essentially most things you would think to wrap it with go outside the window because the of the different flavor profile.
@@SortedFood Also on a different level. Lutefisk. Its a fish that is soked in lye. Turns mostly almost see through and turns into a jello fish of sorts that almost loses its flavor. Usually served with butter sauce or a simple white gravy. Most people do not like it because of the jello-like texture or smell....but its perfectly edible and is more of a mind over matter thing.
@@benjaminrude7698 I am not strong enough for lutefisk, even though I am offered it every year. I've been informed that the fish doesn't really have flavor and all the flavor is from the sauce.
Loved this series...the breakfast around the world is so yummy. Would love to try all especially the ones from Maldives, Myanmar and Bosnia. More of this please. Another series should look at tea time goodies....🤤
Breakfast one is so nostalgic for me. We had it so often as kids (in england) we never knew where it came from until now after watching this i now know it must be from my dutch grandma it made me smile and wonder if i should start having it again as a breakfast coz its so good. Thanks for the education
Props for trying to pronounce hagelslag 🤣 Hagelslag is definitely an in the home kind of affair, though as pointed out below it can be found at hotel breakfast buffets. It is eaten by adults and kids and can also be eaten on whole wheat bread, which we Dutchies eat a lot of. The aniseed sprinkles are still there too. We have the coated aniseed ones in blue and pink (gekleurde muisjes ie coloured mice) which are eaten on 'beschuit' to celebrate the birth of a baby and a white pulverised version (gestampte muisjes ie pulverised mice, yes, I know, pretty weird🙈) .
I've been to Myanmar during the brief stint between Military Juntas and I have to say I didnt see this dish anywhere. What I did see everywhere though was their (pickled?) tea-leaf salad which I think they called Laphet Thoke. Lots of peanuts in there but besides them and the pickled tea leaves I couldnt tell you what else was in it but might be interesting to explore. I think one of the only places that eats tea leaves.
I really thought that dish was from Sri Lanka like Jamie. It was interesting to be reminded of the culture and hope it prevails among Myanmar troubles.
Probably regional. Myanmar is more like a collection of tribes too resilient for anyone else in the region to want to conquer than anything resembling a coherent nation state with shared national identity.
I'm confused that you were so far off on Hagelslag...its basically your neighbour! Also, the anise based sprinkles are still around and well worth the try. Sprinkles and sprinkle covered treats are also found in Indonesia (the ex Dutch part)
When I lived on the Dutch/German border, my Dutch girlfriend used put chocolate sprinkles, chocolate spread, thin slices of cheese, thin slices of ham and slices of brown bread and butter on the breakfast table. I loved the choc sprinkles and choc spread at breakfast. So I knew straight away where this one came from. My first correct guess on the global breakfast quiz.
I need to see what recipe you used for burek because... That's unlike any burek I've ever had especially in Sarajevo because I live here! Why all the sesame or whatever those seeds were?! And the fact that Jamie and Barry only had a bite of burek is why we actually don't usually eat it for breakfast unless you're gonna be like working in a factory all day with small breaks. There are other pies that are easier on your stomach first thing in the morning: zeljanica, sirnica, krompiruša, tikvenica when it's in season... Not burek. All the other pies are ladies but he's the man in the bakery.
Love this episode! FYI...Burek is also a huge part of Serbian cuisine. Many different varieties, including those with fruit (apples). My fav flavour is cheese and spinach! 🥰
I have actually had Burek before here in the States. We went to a Mediterranean restaurant that served that as an appetizer for our meal. It is so yummy.
I like this format because I can play along and guess the countries. The Mohinga was interesting because it reminded me of Southeast Asia (I'm Malaysian), but the chickpeas threw me off because those aren't usually in Malay dishes. I guessed Cambodia, unfortunately I was wrong. It does remind me of laksa, since we usually pulverize fish parts to make the laksa broth too.
There’s a show from Australia hosted by Luke Nguyen called Greater Mekong or something of the sort. He travels to Myanmar and has a local lady show him how to make Mohinga. They use chickpea powder and roasted rice flour to thicken the soup.
Thanks for trying hagelslag! Some other favourite breakfast sandwiches toppings that 'don't belong on a sandwich' are: plain white sugar (with butter), speculaas (just whole cookies, with butter), or schuddebuikjes (tiny speculaas sprinkles, obviously with butter).
so much fun seeing the jovial competition between the normals. LOVED the "why don't we get a cloche? why blindfolds?" LOL too funny. Ben likes to be in control.
Oh, hey, finally one I knew. Burek is delicious, although the ones I get way up in Sweden are perhaps nontraditional with fillings like spinach and cheese or, my favourite, pizza filling basically ham, cheese and spice. 😄
In Serbia burek is made with everything that you describe, in Bosnia burek is only with meat and every other filling isn't burek but pita... But that's something between neighbor countries 😁 Aldough I have never seen burek with sesame seeds on it
Love it that you finally ate something Dutch! A Dutch breakfast needs to be very quick because the Dutch don't take the time to eat their breakfast. We eat in the car on our way to work or while we take care of our children and pets. Hagelslag is defenitely a classical Dutch thing wich i eat regularly for breakfast or lunch withother slices of bread with peanut butter, cheese or meats. We love watching you guys! And congratulations with your anniversary!
Burek very similar to a Yemeni dish called break with probably Turkish origin. Filling is mince and onion with coriander and optional additions are fresh dill chopped boiled eggs and feta. Think I'll make some this week to start the Ramadan fasting
Börek is a dish eaten all across the former ottoman empire, especially in Turkey, the Balkan countries and Greece. Belarus which borders the ukraine and Russia will clearly have eastern european food, whereas Latvia and Estonia will have food more similar to the nordic countries e.g smoked fish, pickles and rye bread. Honestly was baffled by these two guesses 😂
I eat hagelslag almost every Saturday at late breakfast or lunch. On Saturdays I always buy fresh in-house baked white bread (tijgerbrood) from the supermarket which is super soft and crispy crust, which pairs amazingly with some butter and milk chocolate hagelslag
I eat Burek at least once a day when I go to Croatia, as it is the to go vacation place for us Czechs. There are some places that sell it here, but it's not as good.
The first story about the anisy sprinkles has another backstory. Old woman were not able to chew on those with their fake teeth, so they asked the producer to crush them. The original version is nowadays also used to celebrate the birth of a child, pink And blue for girls And boys respectively, on a “beschuitje” (like a dry airy cracker) with butter on the baby shower
we also love hagelslag here in Indonesia, influence of the Dutch. although we call it "meses", adopted from "muisjes". to level up your hagelslag breakfast, use toasted bread, add cheddar cheese and condensed milk.
First one was "fairy bread" from Australia, wasn't it? I just discovered you guys and you're already celebrating 13 years!! That's amazing and massive congrats!!! I've been going through your old videos and giving them a thumbs up and commenting. You have to do something HUGE for your 13th. In the USA, 13 is an unlucky number but I think 13 will be lucky for you. What are your top 13, most viewed recipes? 13 ingredient challenge? 13 minute dishes? Each of your top 13 favorite foods/dishes? I LOVE BEN!!!
Loving all the educational international content lately! I've never gotten eating sticky rice and eggplant for breakfast on holiday in Laos, so so good
There’s a Danish breakfast pastry called “tebirkes” or “Koebenhavner”. It a pastry filled with remonce and topped with poppy seeds (birkes in Danish). I usually have it one the weekends with paalaegchokolade (thin slices of chocolate) in it. You can by frozen tebirkes in Danish supermarkets, so you can have them fresh and warm at home with your morning coffee, and its so so good!
I'm always surprised at how little the guys seem to know European cuisine, like not knowing Hagelslag or that Ben previously had never heard of Ćevapčići and Ajvar, it seems like you can find something familiar in Asian cuisines way more easily than in European ones
True. These, especially the bread with sprinkles and Börek, is so known on continental Europe. Also never heard of someone not knowing of Myanmar or Burma. Being on the good old island seems to cause a distance of common cultural knowledge in Europe
For the Burek, when you mentioned paprika my mind went to Hungary as the general region. I dated a Lithuanian for a while and I often joked that 90% of their cuisine consisted of potato, sour cream, and dill. I'd love to see one of their dishes represented, like kugelis, which is one of the naughtiest potato casseroles I've ever had the pleasure of eating.
Got one right for once! The Netherlands. My husband used to bring home packets of sprinkles when he visited the Netherlands for work. In hotels they have little packets on the breakfast bar, I think I've seen those in Belgium. (Flanders has some Dutch habits).
as a Maldivian, really happy to see a food from our tiny nation being on your channel since i have been watching the channel for a long time. hope you liked it. hope you have more food from our country like rihaakuru.
The hagelslag was the first time I recognized a dish in one of these, and knew where it was from. 😂 We have something similar in Denmark except it’s sheets of tempered chocolate and we call it ‘pålægschokolade’ (directly translated to ‘lay-on-top chocolate). 🎉

in indonesia, we call the sprinkles “meses”, which originates from the dutch word “muisjes”. both words are pronounced the same way :)
I didn't know that! I'm next door to Indonesia (Australia) and we do this for children's parties using coloured sprinkles. I wonder whether we got this from Europe or whether we got the idea from Indonesia?
@@kwoylee5617 since it originates from the netherlands, it could be something that was brought by the european explorers & immigrants (with dutch ancestries) who came/moved to australia a long time ago 🤔
As an American, I was always so confused about the whole toast and chocolate sprinkles thing in the Netherlands. Until I learned that their sprinkles actually are chocolate and taste like chocolate. In America, chocolate sprinkles are like carnuba wax and sugar with maybe just enough cocoa powder to turn them brown. They taste like nothing.
Depends on where you get them but tbh it's quite the same....most are extremely sugary. You CAN get some decent ones but it's not really the standard"^^ There's also fruit flavoured ones hehe
That's about everything in America. Just sugar and grease. Like Americans complaining about licorice because American licorice is just black dried shit
We even have deluxe hagelslag with at least 55% cacao. Ususally available around easter time.
I get that, but to us, even what you call chocolate, as in a chocolate bar tastes like barf most of the time, because in america there is butyric acid in it, that is banned in europe. I feel sorry for you, honestly
Like all American proccesed food..
As a Dutchie I would like to congratulate Jamie for when he threw most of the hagelslag off of the bread. Those slices were too loaded! You got to have balance between the bread, the butter and the hagelslag.. C'mon guys, I didn't expect to have to explain this to the likes of Sorted 😛
Last name almost on point too :)
When I was visiting my friend and he let me try it and make it for myself he freaked out at me when I did it with toast instead of just raw bread
No congratulations to Ebbers on the pronounciation though :D
Too loaded? Nah, you just need more butter so you can press it in AND have a layer above
@@pikekeke He kind of did make it sound very much Nordic indeed...
Happy Anniversary Sortedfood, thank you for uploading your incredible and insightful videos as well as recipes. Wish you all the best and keep up the amazing work.
Thank you!
Love seeing a Bosnian dish! Although I find it a bit odd, that there was sesame seeds and allspice added. I’ve never seen that before - especially not in Sarajevo burek/pita. Salt, pepper and Vegeta(Balkan spice mix), are really the main spices of Bosnian cuisine.
For a real Sarajevo breakfast experience you have to try furdenjača :D
I thought the same - where did that sesame come from 😅
Yeah, looks nothing like any sort of Balkan burek. Surprised that they couldn't find a Balkan bakery that makes burek in London.
I thought it was burek when I saw it, but the mention of allspice threw me. The sesame seeds don't belong either...... And some places will argue that i shouldn't be in a spiral like that, though my local burek guy (I live in Croatia) makes them like that. But greasier. They're sooo good!
I thought that was cheburek from Lebanon because of those spices. Some Serbs put sesame seeds on gibanica, but never on burek. Not even Bulgarians use those spices in their banjitsa.
it looked like the thing i would like the most out of the list.
the bread and chocolate sprinkles is also widely eaten in Indonesia and I think it’s because we had a history with the Netherlands
That was my guess cause I'd seen it in a video from Indonesia!
I was so excited to see Hagelslag!! I'm from Germany but my mum comes from a town right by the Dutch border, so that was our breakfast whenever we went and visited my grandparents there. Definitely a hit of nostalgia for me, I should see if I can find some good sprinkles so I can have it again.
I can already hear all of my fellow Dutch people crying uncontrollably over the pronunciation of "hagelslag"😂
"Hey-gul-slug" 😂
it's like in an age of the internet they still can't google the pronounciation and listen to the audioclips that come up....
Just what I was thinking.
Not just the Dutch, I cry as a Swiss as well.
Check! 🤣🤣🤣
Happy birthday Sorted! It is so nice to see Balkan food again on the channel, you should also try sarma a dish from Serbia. Great video!
Or gibanica 🤩
I love these type of videos. As someone who is severely limited on being able to travel these give just a little taste of other countries that I love
My partner and I absolutely LOVE joining in with guessing the countries and getting quite competitive and have on more than 1 occasion had to pause a video to work out who was closest. We have also started using the Sorted app and it was fun cooking and having Ebbers talk us through it, love you all!
As a Bosnian myself, I love seeing our food represented! However, I do not claim this Burek.. I have never seen Burek quite like this before haha love to see it anyway!
Same, the look was the first thing that didn't look quite right (sesame seeds I've never seen on a burek) and then they said there was potato in there with the meat and that's not natural, it's a mix of krumpirusa and burek which is probably really really tasty but not quite right
Both of those are mentioned on its wiki though and show up in a few different recipes from a quick google. Not to say you're wrong obviously, but they've not pulled it from nowhere.
It seems to always be a problem with the boys doing unfamiliar international dishes is they inevitably get flack for it not being the dish as some people recognise it
@@Southpaw535 Sure, there might be a recipe, but I'll stake my life thay you wouldn't this recipe in 99.95 bakeries that make it, and that might even be a low-ball.
Serbian here. Never seen sesame seeds (or any seeds) on a burek either.
I live in Sweden, though, and here some enterprising Balkañero has had the genius idea to marry burek with pizza - basically: pizza toppings such as cheese and ham, tomato sauce and oregano, used as burek filling. Must say it's delicious. Still not as good as the classic Ex-Yu bureks, but a worthy contender.
This Burek reminded me of the type I tasted in Slovenia quite often. They also have a type that's filled with cheese, which is my favourite. Whenever I visit the country, it's my go to breakfast 😊
I remember the first time I visited my aunt in Canada and her new husband was Dutch! When I watched him and his two daughters add chocolate to their bread in the morning I was a child that was suddenly in heaven! Made me instantly want to move to Holland until they made me eat their black licorice candies hahahaha! Now I want to go for completely different reasons but this episode brought back some lovely memories! Love the series!
There are also sugar coated anise seeds that are called "muisjes" and are often used to celebrate/announce the gender of babies (because they come in pink and blue colors) on round bits of rusk (beschuit) (beschuit met muisjes) These are different than the sugar coasted anise (anijshagel)
Hagelslag also comes in a fruity flavor, and there are also chocolade vlokken (chocolate flakes) which some prefer over the hageslag.
It's so funny to hear your prounanciation of burek 😁. I'm from Croatia and we love a good burek here for breakfast,lunch and dinner. But the bosnian ones are the best..
Burek is an awesome dish and one of the most popular foods in the Balkans. Grew up on this stuff in Croatia. We call all versions of the dish burek, but in Bosnia it's only the meat version that's called burek. The rest (cheese, potato, spinach etc versions) are actually called 'pitice' or 'little pies' (roughly translated). All equally delicious though and yes many versions of how the filo pastry is rolled.
As a Maldivian I love that Maldives has made the channel, especially as someone who has been watching Sorted for so many years. Would love to see more good like rihaakuru being featured. :)
Same, never thought Maldives would be mentioned in this video tbh.
The first dish is usually eaten in the home, not very often you will eat it in restaurants you can but it is not normal to do that. Loved the guesses from the boys as someone who lives in the Netherlands and who eats it every day!😂
Oh wow! That's your breakfast nearly every day?
In Belgium, we sell very thin slices of chocolate to put on bread as well. It's the best. :)
@@SortedFood yeah it is, sometimes I go for a slice of bread with cheese but most days I go for the chocolate sprinkles😂
@@SortedFood It is for me as well, it's just so good as breakfast :D
@@SortedFood In hotels you often have 1 serving cartons with either chocolate sprinkles, aniseed sprinkles or fruity sprinkles, but the word Hagelslag is usually reserved for chocolate and anijshagel and vruchtenhagel for the other flavors. They are also popular in custards and on cakes.
It's common to see congee as a breakfast staple for chinese people, but I think you guys should explore Macaroni and ham soup from Hong Kong! The story behind that and other HK breakfast items is super cool!!
Jamie's eyes rolling up when Barry says 'closer together' re Afghanistan/Sri Lanka guesses was me during every guess as I tried to access some sort of world map inside my brain (& failing miserably often as not despite a geography GCSE)
Really love these videos introducing new dishes & taste combinations from countries I'll never get to visit myself.
I LOOOVE this format!
I would loooove to see a video where Ben and Kush are in the hot seat, with Poppy showing them potato dishes from around the world......
My grandpa grew up in Burma and I was SO excited to see mohinga!! Sorted still making my day with their videos thirteen years on.
As a Belgian, can confirm that hagelslag is really popular here, too 🤓 good toasted bread, proper butter and dark sprinkles is heaven! Fun fact: around here we also call them "muizenstrontjes", which translates to mouse droppings 😵
I guessed Belgium 🙈💪🏼 It's a win for me then🥳
I can confirm this. I was so sure the answer was going to be Belgium. Had this a lot as a kid.
wow! in Indonesia we also call them muisjes (or well "meses" because they can't speak Dutch)
As a Dutchie, get the somewhat more expensive chocolate sprinkles (less sugar!), get some good bread, butter and peanutbutter from Calvé or whichever you like. All together, this equals heaven on a plate. ESPECIALLY WITH TOASTED BREAD. 😁
hhhm now I just want pindakaas en hagelslag... great shout.
gonna give you another level up my granddad told me, add salami (snijworst) to the peanut butter and hagelslag.
As an Indonesian I have to agree with this. Good peanut butter and darker chocolate sprinkles are heavenly.
@@skyhero752 Whaaaaaaaat? 😶
Happy anniversary Sorted!! Thank you for years and years of delicious recipes, hilarious videos and just excellent content! I’m looking forward to more in the future 😊
I remember going to the supermarket in Amsterdam with my Dutch friend who I was visiting. The chocolate sprinkles were in the breakfast food aisle, near the cereals, and not with the baking ingredients. I was very confused, but then delighted when he described exactly this breakfast!!
Wow, as an Aussie with a Dutch father I grew up on choccy sprinkles on bread and butter and then went to parties with fairy bread. Awesome childhood.
Isn't it sacrilege for an Aussie to call them sprinkles and not hundreds & thousands?
@@moldveien1515 they referred to the dutch variety
The long ones are sprinkles, the round colourful ones are 100s and 1000s
I love this game and i'm loving your videos more with each one passing! Your jolly energy brightens my day! Love you guys!
I do love these episodes ... it's fun to guess along with the guys! Happiest Anniversary to you and hope for at least another 13 more!
Boterham met hagelslag! 🎉🎉🎉
Love to see my 🇳🇱 breakfast represented. 😂
Represent! 👊
That’s enough hagelslag for two slices. That’s not the way to do it. (But yes represent!!) I am the ambassador of hagelslag 😂 I would also recommend pink and blue ‘Muisjes’ sprinkles it’s a tradition to eat it to celebrate when children are born. Blue for boys and pink for girls.
I have been to lunch places where they have fancy chocolate sprinkles. Bigger chunks, better cacao.
3:07 isn‘t Greenland part of denmark and as such Barry was way closer?
Honestly would love a video of the boys reviewing all kinds of Hagelslag, they still sell the anis flavoured ones and lots of other cool flavours.
I think the most cool variation of Hagelslag is known as "beschuit met muisjes" (rusk with mice) which is the OG Gender/Sex reveal party. Its little crunchy sugary anis balls covered in a white and blue / pink coating on top of a very crackery style breakfast circle called a "beschuit" (apparently called rusk in english) which you are expected to feed to your guests at a baby shower. They even sell an orange version of the "muisjes" for Kings day over here.
It's typically served *after* the child is born, while gender reveal parties are usually held before the child is born. (Are gender reveal parties now a thing in the Netherlands? I thought this was only done in the US).
@Abi Gail Yes, it's becoming a thing here. Not everyone throws one, but a lot of people are...
This is such an excellent format, we learn things but it’s also a fun competition. Love it.
"This is something my 4-year-old would have thought of" 😂I still tease my Dutch girlfriend about literal sprinkles on bread. Not quite as silly as putting cookies (speculaas) on bread though...one baked good on top of the other!
As a funny aside, I'm from Greece and am absolutely offended at Jamie thinking hagelslag is our fault lmaooo.
Speculoos is delicious though, but a bit more unhealthy compared to other sweet breakfast items.
@@penguindrum264 They are! I'd just rather eat them separately instead of with bread haha, I can taste them better that way.
As a kid we used to eat bread with butter and sugar:)
In the US, as a kid (and sometimes still today) we put cinnamon sugar on buttered toast instead of jelly. Yummy!
some white bread with 2 speculaasjes is also a great breakfast
Hagelslag!! I grew up in Southern Ontario (Canada) where we have large number of Dutch Immigrants, including my grandparents. This (and the white powdered anise and the fruity sprinkles) was something I very much looked forward to eating for breakfast when I went to visit Oma and Opa ❤
Just from the third dish. I hope you guys eventually do something with Lefse as a bait and switch. Its Scandinavian potato tortilla (visually) of sorts but is very much on a different scale of savory as its potato based and is one of the best things I have ever eaten rolled up with just a small amount of butter spread on the inside.
Edit: Essentially most things you would think to wrap it with go outside the window because the of the different flavor profile.
That's super interesting.... thanks for sharing, we will take a look :)
@@SortedFood Also on a different level. Lutefisk. Its a fish that is soked in lye. Turns mostly almost see through and turns into a jello fish of sorts that almost loses its flavor. Usually served with butter sauce or a simple white gravy.
Most people do not like it because of the jello-like texture or smell....but its perfectly edible and is more of a mind over matter thing.
@@benjaminrude7698 I am not strong enough for lutefisk, even though I am offered it every year. I've been informed that the fish doesn't really have flavor and all the flavor is from the sauce.
Oh i love Lefse so much!! We also eat it with a bit of brown sugar with our butter on the inside! I really need to learn the recipe from my Aunt!
@@venjamias Recipe is not to bad. Its just you need a special pan and wooden manipulating stick.
Loved this series...the breakfast around the world is so yummy. Would love to try all especially the ones from Maldives, Myanmar and Bosnia. More of this please. Another series should look at tea time goodies....🤤
the Hagelslag is more for at home thing tho it is on kids menu's quite often also in mini portions at b&b's or hotels ^^
That's interesting, thanks for sharing!
I agree with Barry, this series is most educational ! (And mouthwatering 🤤)
I’m half Dutch, grew up with Hagelslag. Great breakfast!
What a breakfast to have!
Breakfast one is so nostalgic for me. We had it so often as kids (in england) we never knew where it came from until now after watching this i now know it must be from my dutch grandma it made me smile and wonder if i should start having it again as a breakfast coz its so good. Thanks for the education
Props for trying to pronounce hagelslag 🤣 Hagelslag is definitely an in the home kind of affair, though as pointed out below it can be found at hotel breakfast buffets. It is eaten by adults and kids and can also be eaten on whole wheat bread, which we Dutchies eat a lot of. The aniseed sprinkles are still there too. We have the coated aniseed ones in blue and pink (gekleurde muisjes ie coloured mice) which are eaten on 'beschuit' to celebrate the birth of a baby and a white pulverised version (gestampte muisjes ie pulverised mice, yes, I know, pretty weird🙈) .
I've been to Myanmar during the brief stint between Military Juntas and I have to say I didnt see this dish anywhere. What I did see everywhere though was their (pickled?) tea-leaf salad which I think they called Laphet Thoke. Lots of peanuts in there but besides them and the pickled tea leaves I couldnt tell you what else was in it but might be interesting to explore. I think one of the only places that eats tea leaves.
I really thought that dish was from Sri Lanka like Jamie. It was interesting to be reminded of the culture and hope it prevails among Myanmar troubles.
@@pookhahare yeah I also thought Sri Lanka
Probably regional. Myanmar is more like a collection of tribes too resilient for anyone else in the region to want to conquer than anything resembling a coherent nation state with shared national identity.
I knew that was burek or a sort of burek style dish, but have never seen it like that.this one looks fancy with the seeds sprinkled like that :D
Kush is AMAZING! Exactly the right dynamic to add to the on screen team.
I'm confused that you were so far off on Hagelslag...its basically your neighbour! Also, the anise based sprinkles are still around and well worth the try.
Sprinkles and sprinkle covered treats are also found in Indonesia (the ex Dutch part)
I'm surprised too as a British person I knew where it was from immediately.
We hardly ever eat anything anise flavored and I wonder if those sprinkles we still around if they weren’t part of the maturity visit.
Happy Birthday, Sorted! Thank you for all that the entire team does, and we'll be cheering you on as you continue to make fantastic content!
When I lived on the Dutch/German border, my Dutch girlfriend used put chocolate sprinkles, chocolate spread, thin slices of cheese, thin slices of ham and slices of brown bread and butter on the breakfast table. I loved the choc sprinkles and choc spread at breakfast. So I knew straight away where this one came from. My first correct guess on the global breakfast quiz.
Happy Birthday! Thank you for all the joy you give to us!
You guys should try making Trinidadian food, doubles is a typical breakfast food
As an American, these are some of my most favorite videos. It can be very difficult to find authentic foods from around the world.
I need to see what recipe you used for burek because... That's unlike any burek I've ever had especially in Sarajevo because I live here! Why all the sesame or whatever those seeds were?!
And the fact that Jamie and Barry only had a bite of burek is why we actually don't usually eat it for breakfast unless you're gonna be like working in a factory all day with small breaks. There are other pies that are easier on your stomach first thing in the morning: zeljanica, sirnica, krompiruša, tikvenica when it's in season... Not burek. All the other pies are ladies but he's the man in the bakery.
I absolutely love seeing new foods and to believe that some of these are breakfasts is even more amazing!!
Love this episode! FYI...Burek is also a huge part of Serbian cuisine. Many different varieties, including those with fruit (apples). My fav flavour is cheese and spinach! 🥰
I have actually had Burek before here in the States. We went to a Mediterranean restaurant that served that as an appetizer for our meal. It is so yummy.
I like this format because I can play along and guess the countries. The Mohinga was interesting because it reminded me of Southeast Asia (I'm Malaysian), but the chickpeas threw me off because those aren't usually in Malay dishes. I guessed Cambodia, unfortunately I was wrong. It does remind me of laksa, since we usually pulverize fish parts to make the laksa broth too.
There’s a show from Australia hosted by Luke Nguyen called Greater Mekong or something of the sort. He travels to Myanmar and has a local lady show him how to make Mohinga. They use chickpea powder and roasted rice flour to thicken the soup.
Thanks for trying hagelslag! Some other favourite breakfast sandwiches toppings that 'don't belong on a sandwich' are: plain white sugar (with butter), speculaas (just whole cookies, with butter), or schuddebuikjes (tiny speculaas sprinkles, obviously with butter).
Due to history, the bread+hagelslag is also popular in Indonesia
so much fun seeing the jovial competition between the normals. LOVED the "why don't we get a cloche? why blindfolds?" LOL too funny. Ben likes to be in control.
Oh, hey, finally one I knew. Burek is delicious, although the ones I get way up in Sweden are perhaps nontraditional with fillings like spinach and cheese or, my favourite, pizza filling basically ham, cheese and spice. 😄
In Serbia burek is made with everything that you describe, in Bosnia burek is only with meat and every other filling isn't burek but pita... But that's something between neighbor countries 😁
Aldough I have never seen burek with sesame seeds on it
Love it that you finally ate something Dutch! A Dutch breakfast needs to be very quick because the Dutch don't take the time to eat their breakfast. We eat in the car on our way to work or while we take care of our children and pets. Hagelslag is defenitely a classical Dutch thing wich i eat regularly for breakfast or lunch withother slices of bread with peanut butter, cheese or meats.
We love watching you guys! And congratulations with your anniversary!
Nice to see the boys eating Maldivian cuisine. Glad you liked it. This is one of the best breakfast dishes here.
🇲🇻
Burek very similar to a Yemeni dish called break with probably Turkish origin. Filling is mince and onion with coriander and optional additions are fresh dill chopped boiled eggs and feta. Think I'll make some this week to start the Ramadan fasting
This video reminds me of the quote: “What are we putting in our mouths today?”
Happy Wednesday to SortedFood HQ and the Community!
Miss that quote!
@@SortedFood OG Fridgecam was utterly unhinged in the best way.
Shut up, Ben.
@@oneblacksun You’re a legend for remembering that.
Happy Anniversary. I only discovered Sorted a short while ago to my chagrin. Great to be informed and laugh at same time.
FYI, NOT only in the Netherlands, this Hagelslag (meses seres di atas roti) breakfast also actually popular in Indonesia for breakfast!
did you know that meses were named after rodent poo? yes it's named after tai tikus!!
Did some googling and it seems it predictably spread from the Netherlands to the (former) colonies, so it's also popular in Surinam.
@@ludwigb.satrio8860 Apparently in Belgium they're commonly known as "muizenstrontjes" which would be "mice droppings" in English.
I ate that 30 years ago in Germany.. Not regularly as it was a treat but I loved it!!!
Not surprising at Indonesia was a Dutch colony at the time hagelslag was developed. I bet it's also eaten in Suriname for similar reasons.
I am so happy to see this channel grow and grow! You’re amazing guys 🎉
Börek is a dish eaten all across the former ottoman empire, especially in Turkey, the Balkan countries and Greece. Belarus which borders the ukraine and Russia will clearly have eastern european food, whereas Latvia and Estonia will have food more similar to the nordic countries e.g smoked fish, pickles and rye bread. Honestly was baffled by these two guesses 😂
They were way closer than what I was thinking. I was thinking (confidently) Peru
As a Dutchy I'm very proud you guys finally got to try our ever so simple breaky
The only reason hagelslag sounds Scandinavian is because Ben butchered the pronunciation 😂
Ooooooops 😬
Yeah, I'm not sure what you would get if you ordered it the way Ben pronounced it, but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be hagelslag haha
Fr lol! Tho the G was pronounced better than I expect from most native English speakers 😅
I eat hagelslag almost every Saturday at late breakfast or lunch. On Saturdays I always buy fresh in-house baked white bread (tijgerbrood) from the supermarket which is super soft and crispy crust, which pairs amazingly with some butter and milk chocolate hagelslag
LOL why would Barry pick Afghanistan (a land-locked country) for a dish with tuna 😂
Tbf, he just learned Myanmar exists. Dude might have been shocked from that revelation.
I eat Burek at least once a day when I go to Croatia, as it is the to go vacation place for us Czechs. There are some places that sell it here, but it's not as good.
The first story about the anisy sprinkles has another backstory. Old woman were not able to chew on those with their fake teeth, so they asked the producer to crush them. The original version is nowadays also used to celebrate the birth of a child, pink And blue for girls And boys respectively, on a “beschuitje” (like a dry airy cracker) with butter on the baby shower
Haha love the alternative version!
Also, the aniseed version is worth a try as well.
we also love hagelslag here in Indonesia, influence of the Dutch. although we call it "meses", adopted from "muisjes".
to level up your hagelslag breakfast, use toasted bread, add cheddar cheese and condensed milk.
Happy Belated Birthday to SortedFood! Congratulations on 13 years of culinary education and truly unhinged behaviour in the best possible way lol
Would love to see more Caribbean dishes like St. Lucian sousse. So many islands to try from influenced by France, Spain and the Dutch x
First one was "fairy bread" from Australia, wasn't it?
I just discovered you guys and you're already celebrating 13 years!!
That's amazing and massive congrats!!!

Fairy bread uses hundreds and thousands. The colourful sprinkles.
Dutchie here living in Perth... oh this is better than fairy bread lo
Loving all the educational international content lately!
I've never gotten eating sticky rice and eggplant for breakfast on holiday in Laos, so so good
That first one reminds me of Fairy Bread that the Aussies have!
There’s a Danish breakfast pastry called “tebirkes” or “Koebenhavner”. It a pastry filled with remonce and topped with poppy seeds (birkes in Danish). I usually have it one the weekends with paalaegchokolade (thin slices of chocolate) in it. You can by frozen tebirkes in Danish supermarkets, so you can have them fresh and warm at home with your morning coffee, and its so so good!
I'm always surprised at how little the guys seem to know European cuisine, like not knowing Hagelslag or that Ben previously had never heard of Ćevapčići and Ajvar, it seems like you can find something familiar in Asian cuisines way more easily than in European ones
Hey you are right! These are all pretty normale to me as a pure swiss.
True. These, especially the bread with sprinkles and Börek, is so known on continental Europe. Also never heard of someone not knowing of Myanmar or Burma. Being on the good old island seems to cause a distance of common cultural knowledge in Europe
Might be because Britain literally isn't part of Europe, being an island an all lol
I actually got 3/4 of these spot on! I ate so much Borek when I went to Bosnia last summer, the potato ones are my fave
For the Burek, when you mentioned paprika my mind went to Hungary as the general region. I dated a Lithuanian for a while and I often joked that 90% of their cuisine consisted of potato, sour cream, and dill. I'd love to see one of their dishes represented, like kugelis, which is one of the naughtiest potato casseroles I've ever had the pleasure of eating.
Got one right for once! The Netherlands. My husband used to bring home packets of sprinkles when he visited the Netherlands for work. In hotels they have little packets on the breakfast bar, I think I've seen those in Belgium. (Flanders has some Dutch habits).
Was so fortunate to spend a few weeks in Maldives in January…enjoyed mas huni every morning for breakfast along with fresh fruits. Soooo delicious!
as a Maldivian, really happy to see a food from our tiny nation being on your channel since i have been watching the channel for a long time. hope you liked it. hope you have more food from our country like rihaakuru.
The hagelslag was the first time I recognized a dish in one of these, and knew where it was from. 😂
We have something similar in Denmark except it’s sheets of tempered chocolate and we call it ‘pålægschokolade’ (directly translated to ‘lay-on-top chocolate). 🎉
Hagelslag, favourite for children in the Netherlands. Possible at breakfast buffets at hotels. But mostly used in homes as breakfast or lunch item.
