try a "Mettbrötchen" when you are super hung over. Like you are really wasted from the night before. Classic with onions, salt and pepper, but you need to add an ice-cold cola. And I will never get why you north americans dont toast your sandwiches when eating right away. When taking out I can kinda understand, but for that germans have bread.
@@ralfhtg1056: haha, LOL. ja, kennst Du das nur unter "Hackepeter"? Lustig, dass popeliges Schweinemett so viele Namen haben kann.... Aber der Schiet is' ja auch voll lecker, genauso wie sie oben schreibt! Mit Salz und Pfeffer und Zwiebeln oben drup mit nem lecker Röggel'chen = das ist ein dunkles Roggenbrötchen, die gibbet bei uns im Rheinland, speziell in D'dorf! So....und jetzt hab ich voll den Jiieperauf so'n Teil! Booah.... 😝😵😝 lechz....
Agree! The icy layer of whipped cream is my favourite! But also the Vanilla ice with the strawberry sauce is so yummy! When I grew up they used coconut flakes as "cheese" instead of the white chocolate bits they use nowadays. I kind of miss that.
You always have a thin layer of frozen whipped cream when you order an ice cream with whipped cream. At least if the ice is cold enough. Then the cream freezes where it touches the ice cream.
I am German and I agree with you on many things. Some things though you might like better when you make them yourself instead of buying. Homemade Glühwein is so much better than the extra-sweet stuff that gives me heartburn. And store-bought herring salad really is disgusting, but the herring isn't really raw, it's pickled. I make my own using only herring, yoghurt, onions, gherkins, apples and juniper berries. So much depends on the quality of the ingredients.
Der gekaufte Heringssalat schmeckt eigentlich nur an der Küste in den Fischereigeschäften. Geht mir da aber mir den meisten Fischgerichten so. Frisch ist einfach besser, BESONDERS wenn es um Fisch geht.
Du irrst dich. Torten können mit Fiondant oder Marzipan eingedeckt werden. Allerdings ist Marzipanrohrmasse und alles daraus qualitativ nicht zu vergleichen mit z.B. Lübecker Marzipan.
Ohhh noooo marzipan is great. The first time I tried the Marzipankartoffel at the Christmas Market I fell in love with it! And the Glühwein is mandatory to keep the cold away... although you’re Canadian so Düsseldorf is probably quite warm for you haha. The rest of the stuff I haven’t tried either
Mettbrötchen is also known as german Sushi. 😂 I prefer the variant with minced beef with pepper and salt, it's not so fat and tastes better in my opinion.
Hey Jenna. Ich fand deine Videos sooo gut bis jetzt. Das hast du jetzt verspielt. Nein Quatsch :))) Jeder hat seinen eigenen Geschmack. Und das ist auch gut so. Jeder der mir kein Mett weg isst, ist mir sympathisch;) Ich mag deine Videos. Du hast ne positive und sympathische Art
Finde schön, dass du auch so einen netten Humor hast! Ich finde Jenna wirklich voll nett. Wer würde sie nicht in seinem Land haben wollen. Wären alle Mitbürger so wie sie, gäbe es weniger Probleme. Ich finde sie SEHR sympathisch.
If you don't like Marzipan you probably didn't eat Marzipan, but Persipan, the really cheap fake-Marzipan made of apricot kernels, OR you've tried one of the many bad ones. PLEASE don't underestimate Marzipan until you've tried the really good one from Niederegger, the company this nice guy is talking about
I have just eaten a Mettbrötchen (mett on a fresh pumpkin seed Brötchen with onion and much pepper) for supper. Btw. they smell neutral, but taste gorgeos wit the right mett, wich should be not to coarse and lean. Good Mett needs a ideal texture and mixture, it has to be a bit creamy. Chicken Mett or low calory Mett is disgusting and just a bad marketing trick. German Mett is also always fresh produced under the most strict conditions (by law) and can only be served for max. 6 hours + cooled below a certain degree. Not sold Mettbrötchen have to be disposed after 6 hours by shops. Mett packages from the supermarket should also be eaten within 6 hours after the opening. Thats why they often pack them in small sealed rations - more fresh than the most oysters or sushi. But i agree with the Glühwein - a good vine did not need extra spice. Glühwein and Punsch reminds me of the first German sitcom from for 50 years. ruclips.net/video/IIMUHsxyzGk/видео.html
Rick2010100: perfect! You explained all around Mettbrötchen perfectly! Thank You! And now you did something really bad 😏😢 to me..... My Mouth is watering..... I WANT A METTBRÖTCHEN, NOW, IN THIS MINUTE, PLEASE, HURRY UP! 😍😂😂😂😂😂👍😍👏
A lot of the food you mentioned can be very delicious if homemade or freshly made from specialists shops and not bought of the supermarkets freezer or shelf like I saw in one of your screen shots. Worth to try homemade Kaiserschmarrn . It takes canadian pancakes to another level and you can enjoy it with real canadian maple sirup too. Still luv ya👍
J W aahhhhh! No! Kaiserschmarrn can’t even be compared to pancakes! It’s its own phenomenon and deserves its own category entirely! 🤩🥰♥️ hands down my favourite dessert in Germany! 🤤... had some of the best in Bavaria!
being German I tend to understand. This attitude you hear a lot from people that "stayed regional". I moved several times from north to south and back, first as a kid, then with the military. So each time I learned something new. And in each region you'll find interesting food you've never heard of before (and like it) as well as you find things you'll try once and then ignore it for the rest of your life. When in Bavaria (where I live now), and I mean real south bavaria, try some "Kaiserschmarrn", a kind of torn apart pancake. You'll love it.
You could try "Kinderglühwein" - mulled wine without alcohol. The easiest way is to heat up apple juice + cherry juice + gingerbread spices. Around christmas you can also buy them premade in shops or on the christmas market.
Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte wird in der Tat mit Alkohol gebacken, aber nicht mit Likör, sondern in aller Regel mit Kirschwasser, was ein Obstbrand, von Kirschen, ist.
Eine kleine Korrektur ein Kirschwasser ist kein Obstbrand sondern ein gebrannter Auszug aus der Frucht. Die Kirschen werden in Alkohol eingelegt (Weingeist oder Starker Korn) und ca. 6 Wochen stehengelassen dieser Auszug wird dann gebrannt. Im Gegensatz dazu wird bei einem Brand oder Geist die Frucht selbst vergoren und dann aus der Maische ein Schnaps gebrannt.
Und noch eine Ergänzung: Die Torte hat AFAIK sogar ihren Namen davon - sie kommt nicht aus dem Schwarzwald, aber enthält eben Schwarzwälder Kirsch(wasser).
@@habi0187 Soweit ich das gelesen habe, stimmt das nicht Schwarzwälder Kirschwasser ist ein echter Obstbrand. www.hoellberg.de/fachlexikon/was-ist-kirschwasser
Thomas B. Hahaha thanks! Part 2 will definitely be about the things I didn’t like that somehow German culture has taught me to love now!! Rotkohl being one of them 😂😂
Hey, if you do not like every kind of food, you are like 100% of the Germans. Our former chancler Kohl was famous for eating Saumagen (pig stomack), and here in Northern Germany we have "Labskaus". My friends from the southern parts of Germany often ask me: "Do you want to eat that, or did you already eat it?." So, no need to beat around the bush: Tastes are different. That's okay,
@@lifeingermany_ Ha. Look what I found in Wikipedia: "In the late 19th century, the Hamburg steak became popular on the menus of many restaurants in the port of New York. This kind of fillet was beef minced by hand, lightly salted and often smoked, and usually served raw in a dish along with onions and bread crumbs." MINCED MEAT is coming home :)
I don't know Canada, but here my list of my top 10 worst US foods: 1. Sweet bacon with syrup 2. Marshmallows with sweet potatoes (not a dessert, eaten with actual food) 3. Anything with BBQ sauce and honey chicken wings 4. Peanut butter and jelly sandwich 5. American cake (pure sugar) 6. Mac & cheese 7. American salad dressing 8. American beer (sweetened bubbly water with alcohol) 9. American water (dirty water) 10. American donut And extra 11. American hotdog (super soft and sweet and salty) 12. American hamburger (soft, sweet and salty) 13. French fries (salty, greasy)
I think you are in very good company, even among native Germans. I never could bring myself to try raw Mett, I don't much care for Glühwein or Heringssalat (although the latter is better when made fresh by someone with skill, I'd never eat the supermarket stuff) The Rotenburg pastry seems a very special local thing I had never heard of before. I like marzipan if the quality is good (I don't like it much as cake covering) but there are also many people who don't (almost like liquorice/Lakritz which is even more an acquired taste). It is a question of the quality as the lesser/cheaper ones are too dry and/or too sweet. The good one is sweet, soft and slightly moist and like the essence of almonds. You are a bit unfair in case of pancakes because there are so many varietes both in Germany and the whole world and they are also easy to cook, so the lack of the north american variety is neither surprising nor a problem. Black Forest/Schwarzwälder is also best made by oneself, then one can go easy on the Kirschwasser although it does belong there for the real thing. As with all pastry and cake the quality offered from convenience products or bakeries differs wildly and while some are delicious, some are substandard and merely sweet and artificial. However, I regret to inform you that it is a capital offense to use flabby Sandwichbread instead of real German bakery bread in public videos!
bios theoretikos hahahaha you’re right!! I actually haven’t eaten this “flabby bread” since I moved to Germany! I totally agree! Sadly, it’s the only bread my 2 year old will eat at the moment 🙈 so mama is stuck eating the flabby bread leftovers!!
I just am in awe about how acurately the above comment (given the lenght of it) is reflecting my own thoughts/experience. Now I simply have to disagree to the Mett-related statement and can add my thoughts on Heringssalat: I don't like the "pink" kind that supermarktes sell, whereas "Dillhappen" is one of those "funny" foods that I enjoy in small dosages but can't swallow anymore once a certain point is reached. With Dillhappen (as well as fried mushrooms by the way) this point of joy turning into disgust is reached way sooner than with any other food item I can think of. Anybody out there who can relate? And to the Schwarzwälder Kirsch (Torte): The amount of liquor put in really is a decisive factor here. Another thing I really dislike are those "Belegkirschen" used for decorating (those) cakes. Just like the strawberry sauce, which is the main reason for me to dislike spaghetti icecream mostly, those taste way too (artificially) sweet in my opinion. Really looking forward to the other videos you promised (especially hence I agree with your pick on Rotkohl mentioned in the comment section)
As being born and raised in Germany, I absolutely love Mettbrötchen. But I do understand, that if you're not familiar with it since childhood, the bare concept of eating raw, spiced meat may be desgusting. So, no blame from my side. Also, you're absolutely right, that the cuisine in this country is very diverse. Each federal state, some areas and sometimes even a city can have it's local cuisine, you find nowhere else. If you're not accustomed to this since childhood, you may or may not find a local specialty delicious or not. Also, sometime the naming of a local specialty might be misleading. I'll give you a few examples. Some of them you may want to try, others probably not. Cologne: "Halve Hahn" - From the name you might expect some chicken, but in reality it's a breadroll with cheese and - very important - mustard. Hamburg/northern Germany: "Labskaus" - a dish from potatoes, beef and beetroot; I think there are a lot of germany, who do not like this because of the beetroot Bavaria: "Weißwurst" - as you've visited the Oktoberfest, you probably know, there's a thing called "Weißwurst" and also you probably didn't try it. Well, I don't like it either. Not only is the Weißwurst itself far from delicious, you usually eat it with sweet mustard, which is absolutely no favourite of mine. There are a lot of more local specialties here in Germany and a lot of explore for you. A many dishes have meat it in and therefore you might not try or like a lot of those. But considering your sweet tooth, an absolute must try - if you didn't try yet - is the Original Nürnberger Lebkuchen. (www.lebkuchen-nuernberg.com/ or www.lebkuchen-schmidt.com/ have the best.)
that what you show is not heringssalat. its hering in Sahne mit Apfel und Zwiebel. this is eaten to hot Pellkartoffeln as a dish. Heringssalat is eaten on bread for example Vollkornbrot.
Hi Jenna, just stumbled into your videos and it's so interesting to me what you like and dislike about our food . I'm from the north of Germany and OF COURSE love Mett - especially with salt, black pepper and a lot of raw onions or chive on it ! If you don't like Glühwein, have you tried hot apple juice with cinnamon and cloves ? That tastes quite christmassy and might be a good alternative. As far as pancakes I naturally like the German kind (with apple sauce and cinnamon sugar on top ( reminds me of the good old days when my grandmother made them for me) but since I stayed in the US for a year as an exchange student way back in 1969 I grew very fond of the American kind ( with salted butter and lots of maple sirup on top )- yummy !
'Mest'P.S. After watching the rest of your video I totally agree with you on the "Heringsalat" but not as much on Marzipan. I live in Germany's Marzipan-City of Lübeck , the home of "Niederegger Marzipan", and I 'd suggest that you try again since there are in fact different recipes . E.g. we have a factory here called 'Mest' that produce a soft and not so sweet Marzipan that is delicious. Since it is a very tiny factory you can buy their goods only directly at the factory and in only one little shop in Lübeck. So why not visit Lübeck after the Corona pandemic ? I promise it will be worth it - not just because of the Marzipan but because of the ancient city centre and the seaside nearby .
Bis zum Spaghettieis warst du mir sehr sympathisch 😂 Wie kann man das nicht mögen 😳 Von den Schneebällen habe ich noch nie was gehört, aber die sehen schon sehr staubig aus 😂 Mettbrötchen habe ich früher geliebt, ordentlich Zwiebeln drauf, einfach geil. Marzipan und Glühwein brauche ich auch nicht.
What's wrong with Marzipan? It's mostly almonds, powdered sugar and maybe a little rosewater. The ingredients are supposed to be a big sekret I am writig about fron Luebeck. Try Apfelschmalz. We made it ourselves of greaves and apples after the war and I like it still.
Mett is love Mett is life! But I get the Marzipan part. I like it on its own but on a cake its the worst part. All the sugar in the cake ruins your taste buds for anything else. When I have Marzipan decorations on my slice, I try to eat them firt, because I know they will taste horrible after the first bite of the cake.
If you would try real Marzipan from Niederegger for example you would realize that it´s not very sweet. Just fake marzipan or Persipan tastes awfully sweet. You get what you pay for.
@@zeldazyklus7044 I love marzipan, but marzipan cake just isn't very good. It's too sweet and tastes one dimensional. I would pick cheesecake, any berry cake or butterkuchen over it any day of the week.
I laughed so hard during this video, because it's first one about "weird" German food I totally disagree upon XD. Concerning pancakes, have you tried fresh grated potatoe pankakes (Reibekuchen) with applesauce/puree, like grandma style? Marvelous! The other thing is the hering salat. What you have shown in the video is, pardon my french, trash! There are variations, that if they homemade, which are awesome, like the polish variation. But I prefer the one from nothern Germany with beetroot. Homemade it's the bomb (IMHO)!
If you ever visit the eastern parts of Germany around Christmas season, you can try "Glühbier", basically mulled wine, but with beer. Often attributed to an old Polish recipe.
Mettbrötchen 😋 / Glühwein 😝 / Pancakes😋 both German and North American / Spaghetti-Eis 😝 / Currywurst😋 but only the NRW-way / Heringssalat only the self made one😋 / Marzipan😋
Mettbrötchen is absolutely amazing. It may sound weird but seriously don't knock it till you've tried it The meat is absolutely save to eat. It's such a simple thing. And after a long hard work day there is nothing better than a mettbrötchen with lots of onions
This was quite funny. Heringsalat and Mettbrötchen I loved as a kid, so fresh and yummy. Have you tried Pfannkuchen Mühle in Neunkirchen-Seelscheid. Really cool place when I was growing up in Germany. Now we are residing in Canada, since 14 years. We miss a lot of German food yes, Brötchen und Marzipan. Deutsches Marzipan is fantastish and we love it. Sometime, around Christmas, they have it in Freshco or Food Basics. Or the Christmas package from Oma. The marzipan on Canadian cake isn't the same. lol I was shocked when I saw the prices for food here in Canada (mind boggeling) and again when we visited Germany last time, how cheap it is to get good food there. Ach ja und Schwarzwälderkirschtorte, I wasn't ever a big fan of it but the Canadian version is just a chocolate cake with cherry on top, nothing in comparison. Lol that is all mostly depending on what and how we grew up I guess. Nice & funny video, great job Jenna!
Glühwein: Come to the Frankfurt Area and try Hot Applewine. Also, I personally don't really like the standard red Glühwein anymore, but discovered that good sellers also have white Glühwein (at least in Frankfurt)..... lot better.
You covered at least 3 of my personal favorites. I love Marzipan (and tend to make it myself) and Heringssalat. And high quality fresh and raw meat as in "Mett" is delicious (much fresher than cooked meat and with much more suptile flavours). Of cause I do not convince vegetarians and I know that tastes are different and that some foods seem especially strange, if you are not accustomed to them. But I would really recommend to stay open minded and not to rely on the taste of one canadian if you visit germany. If people do not try stuff themselfes, they will be missing out on a lot of pretty great tastes.
Toastbrot is not sandwich. Toastbrot is bread that is meant to be toasted. Better, it is designed to be really good after(!) it is toasted. That's why it is Toastbrot an not sandwich (breadl In fact toast is a false friend as in English it is short for *toasted bread" and in German it is short for "Toastbrot" (and that is as mentioned above "bread meant to be toasted" )
I as a German love my Mettbrötchen with a big pile of onions as well as I love pancakes with apples or blueberries. The pancakes will be drowned in maple syrup for sure.🤤
@@lifeingermany_ Imagine someone opening a cafe with your pancakes somewhere in Germany! That would be a win-win situation for all of us (including your mom) 🙊🙊🙊
Mettbrötchen mit Salz, Pfeffer und Zwiebeln ... there's nothing better. Either on a bun or slice of Weizen- or Roggenbrot. Yum ... But it's gotta be Thüringer Mett, mix of beef and pork. I myself love it (even though I try to not eat as much meat these days).
Hey Jenna, I love your videos and happy to see the progress the channel made during the past weeks!! I was just wondering which video software you use for your intro, would you mind telling me? :)
@@lifeingermany_ nice! I’m looking for someone to create a travel movie out of my videos, would you mind telling me his name on Fiverr? His work looks super good!!
You forgot: Rollmops! Similar to Heringsalat. I can relate, I don't like like slimey, jelly textured food. On the other hand geräucherte Makrele, yam yam ;)
We actually got an "american diner" here by the motorway in Bremen. It's called Daisy's Diner, so maybe that's where you're pancake chase might lead you to :P
@@lifeingermany_ The best pancakes in Germany you will find in Hildesheim, Lower Saxony (by the way, Hildesheim is always nice for a visit with the Fachwerkhaus-Marktplatz, Andreaskirche and famous 1000 year old Hildesheimer Dom). In Cafe Beste you will find lots of pancake-sorts (with meet, with different cheese, with marmelades, etc). So yummy, I love it! www.antik-cafe.info/speisekarte.html
It is not good to know before tasting a food what might be on your plate. If you do not know and try food without any influence it is much easier to find your personal favorits and nogoes. Once I was in China and tried all food mostly without knowing what it was. The only one exeption were chicken feet. They looked disgusting for me and I did not try them. Now I am angry about myself to not having tried there taste. Maybe I had liked it as I all the other food liked. Some things I ate had a texture anywhere beetween mushrooms, meat and algees and tasted like nothing I have eaten before. I still do not know what it was but it all was great. Btw I like Mettbrötchen with lots of onions on top. It is fresh and absolutely delicious. Also Spagettieis and Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte is superb. And finally marzipan I love it especially the marzipan bread with dark choclate around. Great video I liked it 😘
We can't argue about taste. I suppose. But it's worth to try everything even if we are blocked by our education. As in one comment said, it's good not to know the ingredients or typ of the offered or served food..... Once I have been invited in Kenya to an "eunoto" [big Maassai ceremony]. I expected I would have to drink these "disgusting" mixture from sour cow milk, blood and same ash out of a "smelly" calabash [like your Heringssalat].I ran away and missed the ceremony. Later I regretted.. .. Just the other day my neighbor here in France [I'm in holidays in Normandy] invited me and offered me a slice of a paté. I know the French like offals and giblets. So I was suspicious but suddenly I remembered that Maassai-trauma and started half-happily to eat. It was delicious! As my neighbor said [casual and a bit proud]: "I have prepared it from fresh pork's brain, isn't it delicious!" it hit me heavily. I nodded, smiled somehow... Will never buy it [like you a Mettbrötchen], but could also eat it any time without shivering when offered.
Hi, I was born in Budapest, spent lot of years in NYC now live in Regensburg, Germany. My husband is German. Totally relate to the fresh air thing..we watched that video yesterday I was cracking up. I sometimes tell him..oh my god don't be so German😃
I've been living in germany since three years, there are foods that I don't even tried like Sauerkraut, Heringssalat, Mettbrochen etc. I consider they have a quiet special taste. I think Gluckwein at the Christmas market. But in general they have a good cuisine.
Nothing wrong with wild rice, Newfoundland cod in batter, smoked salmon (not to be confused with liquid oxygen :-), and smoked Arctic char. You could make a warm breakfast using fried Nuernberg sausages combined with fried potatoes, eggs sunny side up, toast, butter, preserves, etc. Summer tends to be more and more like summer in Toronto, hot and muggy. Welcome to Germany. Je Suis Samuel.
Come to Herzogenaurach and try Spaghetti Verde ice-cream! It‘s pistachio icecream with „tomato sauce and cheese“ 😀 They probably have it in other parts of Germany, too.
I can relate to some of the things you said , even Curry Wurst the alltime german favorite , I have mostly had enough of . Though it is something that if you are into it you have to find "the one" shop where they do the sauce the way you like and use the right saugage. I do not know If it measures up to your standards but there is actually a place in Bonn so probably near by that has Northamerican Pancakes on the menu .. It is called "cartoon" . It is a bistro Restaurant where you also can get cocktails. The pancakes are aktually a remnant of the former Concept of the house beeing one half cocktailbar and one half american Diner with a little front cooking . But that did not work out so they rebuild it. Also in Düsseldorf and Cologne you can look out for russian Restaurants. They have a pancake culture too and if they are sweet served on the menu the dough is usualy too though they havent got the form of north American pancakes. In Düsseldorf I know two of them the Beluga that also has a Website and the Isbuschka which has not.
I was born in Germany but have lived in Australia for 55 years. Never been back to Germany. I remember mett brotchen and I loved it. It does sound gross for everyone I know now but I would jump at the chance to have it again.
Ohh mein Gott, Mettbrötchen.... könnt ich mich reinlegen und für sterben!!! Hab mal in Essen gearbeitet, 16 Leute in der Abteilung und bei 80% der Geburtstage gabs n Mettfrühstück. Das hieß 30 bis 40 Brötchen, 3 bis 4kg Mett und 1,5kg Zwiebeln. War alles immer um halb 1 weg :)
So you find Heringssalat disgusting. Then you should stay away from Labskaus or "Tote Oma" EDIT: Fun Fact: The Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte was not invented in the Black Forest. Actually the first cakes of that kind came from the Rhineland. They are called that way because they use Schwarzwälder Kirschwasser in it, a booze made from cherries.
Who could hate you?! You are very nice, fun and personable (is it the right translation for being "sympathisch"??) By the way I absolutely know what you mean! ;-) I am from Austria, but in some things we are very similiar to our german neighbours and soo different too at the same time :). As native I had quite the same issues as you, particularly as very young girl (hating marcipan, schwarzwäler kirsch was not my favorite, and I was disgusted by beef tartar (it's like Mett). So maybe age helps to like some food in the future ;-). Very kind regards from Vienna/Austria! What a pity, that you are not living here :)
Spaghettieis gibt es inzwischen in so vielen Sorten... Ich persönlich mochte das "klassische" auch nie so gerne, aber da gibt es eins, das ist einfach nur genial. Spaghettieis aus Vanille- und Schokoeis, mit Karamelsoße (oder Eierlikör, aber ich habs nicht so mit dem Alkohol) und Walnüssen.
It's funny to watch you talking about food.. Although I love lots of the stuff you dislike, I completely understand your feelings, and with heringssalat I go along with you. Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte is only good, when there is not too much Kirsch in it. It's just to give the flavour but if you feel drunk after a single bite, you definitely picked the wrong piece of cake. Unfortunately you find this kind of stuff more often than the good ones. So I only eat my own homemade cake.
Use Mett to make meatballs or burger patties. Once it's cooked it has a great flavour. Pop over to Holland and visit a Pannekoekenhuis (pancake restaurant) Great pancakes in so many different varieties. I'm a Brit Ex-pat so I can relate to a lot of your videos.Even after being here over 30 years.
Ich stimme dir teilweise zu, teilweise natürlich nicht ;-) Es ist eine Frage des persönlichen Geschmacks. Kurz zum Mett: ein Leben ohne Mett ist möglich, es ist aber nicht erstrebenswert. Interessieren würde mich, wie du zu folgenden deutschen Spezialitäten stehst. Teilweise enthalten sie Fleisch, ich kennzeichne das, muß keiner essen: Labskaus (enthält Fleisch), Pickert (Pancake, der auf Kartoffel (!) basiert), Wurstebrei (enthält Fleisch, westfälisches Haggis). Ich mag deinen Kanal sehr gerne, es ist immer interessant, einen Blick von außen zu bekommen. Ich hoffe, du machst noch viele Videos.
German pancakes are the same as american pancakes in regard of getting a good premade pancake - it's nearly impossible. In addition, you have different kinds of pancakes, like Eierpfannkuchen, Apfelpfannkuchen or Kartoffelpfannkuchen. Recipies can differ a lot depending on region or even from family to family. Everyone makes them as they like them best. Therefore, you have to test different recipies and modify them to your liking. The main difference compared to american pancakes is probably that most germans don't add baking soda. If i want to have a fluffy dough however (f.e. for Apfelpfannkuchen), i would beat the egg white before i mix it to the dough. Powder is usually used in restaurants, because it looks nicer, but at home most people would use ordinary sugar or honey to sweeten their pancakes (which is more effective). You could also use sugar beet syrup (i know it as Fenner Harz), jam or maple syrup. When i want to have my pancakes sweeter, i usually add a banana to the dough. I learned from a lot of germans that they do it occasionally, even though i don't think it's traditional. When you want them salty, just add cheese to the dough. - The snowballs you can buy differ A LOT in quality and taste. When i was there, i ate some that were delicious and some that were disgusting. Sadly, good bakeries are on the brink of extinction. I have seen a lot of videos where foreigner test "german bread" and just by looking at the bread i knew i wouldn't like that. Finding really good bread has become a difficult task nowadays, especially if you don't know what you are looking for.
I cracked up laughing - can totally relate, except for the Mettbrötchen. I am vegan for 6 years now and still craving it sometimes...My cousin from LA was so disgusted when she saw it the first time visiting me in Germany. She also took several photos from different angles, she couldn't believe it.
Yes, Jenna is totally nice, I like her too! I have a question: is it so unusual in USA and Canada to eat beef tartar?..it is like Mettbrötchen-Belag! Because in England, France, Germany, Austria there is Beef Tartar (a raw ground beef mixed up with seasoning, served with toasted white bread (sometimes drizzeld with garlic-oil)
I laughed so much as I read your fun story with your cousin, and I read it to my husband. He laughed too. I am also disgusted and he loves eating it. So it was very recognizable for us.;-)
@@inka87871 That is very popular here in Wisconsin. Usually served at Christmas/New Years but mostly at home with very high quality lean ground beef. Beef must be freshly ground and eaten the same day.
Ohh thank you... I am German and can relate to most of these... especially some of the meaty things 🤢 but I hope there are still some German foods you enjoy :) btw, it’s so much fun to watch your videos, interesting topics and overall great content. Keep it up! :)
Many Americans/Canadians don’t know what marzipan is. Do you? It’s ground almonds, sugar, and rose water. So my question is what is it about marzipan that you don’t like? Just curious. 😀
That’s a good question! Haha I had no idea what it was actually made from - but I can tell you I definitely am no ran of rose water - have tried it many times and just can’t get used to it 🤣 ... but I think many of the lower quality ones I’ve tried are just from corn syrup! I love almonds, so not sure why I don’t fancy marzipan so much! Probably because I haven’t actually tried a REAL good quality one! I must!
Have you tried making pancakes from scratch? Can you get bisquick there, Krusteaz. I would often bring a 5 pound bag to a friend in Germany. Good luck on your quest! And as for Mett, nit for me. Schönes Wochenende und Gruß von Kalifornien.
I can only speak for myself, born and raised in the Ruhr district but living most of my life near the North Sea coast: American style pancakes I cannot eat. I tried them - but even less sweetened they are way too sweet and I need old savoury cheece (or something like that) to get my mouth and stomach back to function again.
My friend from Canada hated Pflaumenmus! It was soooo funny! Her face was : WTF! Are you trying to kill me? Then again she loved Tsaiziki. Well, Quark in general.
Well, being German I hate Currywurst and Marzipan. Haven't ever had a Schneeball. Mettbrötchen is something I don't really need and I only would eat it with a lot of onions. But I do like curry ketchup. For pan cakes I mix flour, eggs etc myself and I do add sugar to the dough, not onlu on top. Spaghettieis is not on my diet which is because vanilla and strawberry are not my favourite flavours in ice cream, but I like how it looks. Sahneheringe is something my mom served with Pellkartoffeln which is the only way I would consume them
Hi Jenna! Well, I'm living in Germany since 1982 (coming from Romania), and imagine, I never tried the Mettbrotchen! Moreover, I don't really miss it, there are so many other tasty foods - like for ex the thin crêpes, AKA Palatschinken :-)) Just try to make them yourself, with sugar. Best would be to find a real hungarian (or austrian) recipe. About the hering and similar salads (wurst or seafood or some such): I never ever buy the ready mades from the supermarket, I make them myself. I don't like the sauce from supermarket either, there is stuff in them it doesn't belong there.
Mettbrötchen.... der einzige Grund, in Germany zu bleiben 😂🤣 Das was in den Geschäften, sowie in Keksen, Kuchen und Co in der Regel so als Marzipan angeboten wird, ist für mich kein ordentlicher Marzipan, bzw. handelt es sich eh meistens um Persipan, bzw ein Gepansche aus Beidem, wobei der Marzipan dann auch möglichst billig, hergestellt wurde. Ungeniessbar! Das ist so süss, klumpig und pappig, dass es mir den Gaumen zusammen zieht. Guter Marzipan ist sehr aromatisch, soft, zergeht auf der Zunge und hat eine angenehme Süsse. Muss man aber ein paar €€ mehr für auf den Tisch legen. Lohnt sich jedoch. Spaghettieis ist lecker, wenn man es in einer wirklich guten Eisdiele bestellt. Mir sind die Portionen aber immer zu gross. Heringssalat schmeckt nur selbstgemacht gut. Dieses übersäuerte und mit chemischen Kunstzuckern angereicherte Zeug aus den Supermärkten kann man in die Tonne kloppen! Kein Wunder, dass Du es nicht mochtest. Wenn Du mal Gelegenheit bekommst, selbstgemachten Heringssalat zu probieren, dann wirst Du einen RIESENUNTERSCHIED feststellen. Ebenso bei Heringsstip, den man zu Pellkartoffeln isst. Viele Grüsse
@@cyrill3000 Damn it, it allmost worked... But i´m so lonly down here, i need a hug ;) But you know what? Apples really are part of the recipe for this lol
@@satanmitdengeilenbarthaaren, als Hamburger weiß man doch wie Heringssalat gemacht wird. ☺️ Rote Beete mag ich sehr gern, aber im Heringssalat mag ich sie nicht so gerne. Ich mag am liebsten Matjes, süßer Apfel, Schalotten, Gurken, Radieschen, Dill, schwarzen Pfeffer, Crème fraïche, Joghurt, etwas Zitronenschalenabrieb und ein paar Spritzer Saft. Aber keine Discounter Matjes kaufen, die schmecken grausam und sind unmöglich verarbeitet! Ich habe einen guten Fischhändler. Da sind die so mild geräuchert, dass der Geschmack nicht umgenietet wird und man immer zwei Filet zuviel bestellt. Eins für den Heimweg und etwas Schwund beim Schnibbeln is ja nu auch, ne?

Heringssalat: What you showed was just "Sahne-Hering". Hering, with onions apples and sour cream. Heringssalat is something different. More like a salad, mostly with beetroot etc..
This pack of so called "Heringsalat" looked strange to me. The "real" Heringsalat is of pink colour (coming from beetroot), the chunks of haring are relatively small, and pieces of apples and walnuts give it a subtile taste. This kind of a side dish is not THE favorite dish of mine, but served right from the fridge with a slice of hot toast with melting butter on it, is a must have once or twice a year. If you want to give it a second try, look out in supermarkets (no discounters please!) for the brand "Merl" (producing in my home town, south of Cologne) - no paid ad! This package shown seems to be "(Sahne-)Hering Hausfrauenart", cured haring in a creamy, slightly sweetened sauce with apples and onions in it. To be served with "Pellkartoffeln" (aka Quallmänner), mostly on Friday (the tradtional lent-day in the Rhineland, where one is/was supposed to eat fish).
I love Mettbrötchen BUT i am pretty careful where i get them or where i get the Mett to prepare them myself (which comes from my experience of 14 years working with butchers, listening to them and knowing that there is an individual difference in the amount of salt, pepper and onions that people like). Same goes for cheese, if someone tells me in general what he/she likes to eat i nearly always know the perfect cheese for them. Oh and I never heard of Glühwein with white wine before but this could be a Hamburg thing.
WANT TO GIVE THEM A TRY? THE FOODS I SHOW YOU IN THIS VIDEO WERE FILMED AT:
- REWE: bit.ly/rewe-LID
- NETTO: bit.ly/LID-Netto
You can also order online during the pandemic!
try a "Mettbrötchen" when you are super hung over. Like you are really wasted from the night before. Classic with onions, salt and pepper, but you need to add an ice-cold cola.
And I will never get why you north americans dont toast your sandwiches when eating right away. When taking out I can kinda understand, but for that germans have bread.

The best thing about the Spaghettieis is the wiped cream below the ice cream which gets this thin frozen layer.
Agree! The icy layer of whipped cream is my favourite! But also the Vanilla ice with the strawberry sauce is so yummy! When I grew up they used coconut flakes as "cheese" instead of the white chocolate bits they use nowadays. I kind of miss that.
I love Spaghettieis but I actually hate the frozen whipped cream and always order without it. Often half of the desert is just whipped cream. GROSS.
You always have a thin layer of frozen whipped cream when you order an ice cream with whipped cream. At least if the ice is cold enough. Then the cream freezes where it touches the ice cream.
If there is ketchup on a sausage, it's not Currywurst. Good Currywurst comes swimming in sauce, not topped with ketchup.
gross ! disgusting ! 😂
Yum yum I love Mett-Brötchen. I've tried it few months ago. I live in Germany from an year.
I am German and I agree with you on many things. Some things though you might like better when you make them yourself instead of buying. Homemade Glühwein is so much better than the extra-sweet stuff that gives me heartburn. And store-bought herring salad really is disgusting, but the herring isn't really raw, it's pickled. I make my own using only herring, yoghurt, onions, gherkins, apples and juniper berries. So much depends on the quality of the ingredients.
Der gekaufte Heringssalat schmeckt eigentlich nur an der Küste in den Fischereigeschäften. Geht mir da aber mir den meisten Fischgerichten so. Frisch ist einfach besser, BESONDERS wenn es um Fisch geht.
What you know as “Marzipan” in Canada (used to cover cakes) is actually called “Fondant” here in Germany :)
But why calling Fondant „Marzipan“? Fondant is sugar and „Marzipan“ is marzipan (powdered almonds)
@@maxmadmordock I have no idea, doesn’t make any sense to me ...🤷♀️
Du irrst dich. Torten können mit Fiondant oder Marzipan eingedeckt werden. Allerdings ist Marzipanrohrmasse und alles daraus qualitativ nicht zu vergleichen mit z.B. Lübecker Marzipan.
Ohhh noooo marzipan is great. The first time I tried the Marzipankartoffel at the Christmas Market I fell in love with it! And the Glühwein is mandatory to keep the cold away... although you’re Canadian so Düsseldorf is probably quite warm for you haha. The rest of the stuff I haven’t tried either
Mettbrötchen is also known as german Sushi. 😂
I prefer the variant with minced beef with pepper and salt, it's not so fat and tastes better in my opinion.
Hey Jenna.
Ich fand deine Videos sooo gut bis jetzt. Das hast du jetzt verspielt.
Nein Quatsch :))) Jeder hat seinen eigenen Geschmack. Und das ist auch gut so. Jeder der mir kein Mett weg isst, ist mir sympathisch;)

If you don't like Marzipan you probably didn't eat Marzipan, but Persipan, the really cheap fake-Marzipan made of apricot kernels, OR you've tried one of the many bad ones. PLEASE don't underestimate Marzipan until you've tried the really good one from Niederegger, the company this nice guy is talking about

WHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAATTTTTTTT Mettbrötchen oder Hackepeterbrötchen we eat almost every week at work. I love it
Hahahha my husband would be in heaven!
@@lifeingermany_ There's no accounting for taste. If your husband is an engineer, he is welcome to apply to us. 🤣
I have just eaten a Mettbrötchen (mett on a fresh pumpkin seed Brötchen with onion and much pepper) for supper. Btw. they smell neutral, but taste gorgeos wit the right mett, wich should be not to coarse and lean. Good Mett needs a ideal texture and mixture, it has to be a bit creamy. Chicken Mett or low calory Mett is disgusting and just a bad marketing trick. German Mett is also always fresh produced under the most strict conditions (by law) and can only be served for max. 6 hours + cooled below a certain degree. Not sold Mettbrötchen have to be disposed after 6 hours by shops.
Mett packages from the supermarket should also be eaten within 6 hours after the opening. Thats why they often pack them in small sealed rations - more fresh than the most oysters or sushi.
But i agree with the Glühwein - a good vine did not need extra spice.
Glühwein and Punsch reminds me of the first German sitcom from for 50 years.

Worth to try homemade Kaiserschmarrn . It takes canadian pancakes to another level and you can enjoy it with real canadian maple sirup too. Still luv ya👍

being German I tend to understand. This attitude you hear a lot from people that "stayed regional". I moved several times from north to south and back, first as a kid, then with the military. So each time I learned something new. And in each region you'll find interesting food you've never heard of before (and like it) as well as you find things you'll try once and then ignore it for the rest of your life. When in Bavaria (where I live now), and I mean real south bavaria, try some "Kaiserschmarrn", a kind of torn apart pancake. You'll love it.
You could try "Kinderglühwein" - mulled wine without alcohol. The easiest way is to heat up apple juice + cherry juice + gingerbread spices. Around christmas you can also buy them premade in shops or on the christmas market.
Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte wird in der Tat mit Alkohol gebacken, aber nicht mit Likör, sondern in aller Regel mit Kirschwasser, was ein Obstbrand, von Kirschen, ist.
Eine kleine Korrektur ein Kirschwasser ist kein Obstbrand sondern ein gebrannter Auszug aus der Frucht. Die Kirschen werden in Alkohol eingelegt (Weingeist oder Starker Korn) und ca. 6 Wochen stehengelassen dieser Auszug wird dann gebrannt. Im Gegensatz dazu wird bei einem Brand oder Geist die Frucht selbst vergoren und dann aus der Maische ein Schnaps gebrannt.
Und noch eine Ergänzung: Die Torte hat AFAIK sogar ihren Namen davon - sie kommt nicht aus dem Schwarzwald, aber enthält eben Schwarzwälder Kirsch(wasser).
Probieren mal Zuger Kirschtorte. Das ist eine Schweizer Buttercremetorte ganz ohne Kirschen, aber mit ganz viel Kirsch(Wasser). 😉
@@habi0187 Soweit ich das gelesen habe, stimmt das nicht Schwarzwälder Kirschwasser ist ein echter Obstbrand.

@@karinbirkenbihl2053 du hast recht ich habe hier wohl die Begriffe verwechselt. Ein Wasser ist ein Brand und der Geist ist der Auszug. Sorry
@9:26 Good "Currywurst" doesn't have any curry ketchup ontop but a tomato based currysauce and isn't necessarily sweet either.
That was very funny Jenna. Hope you 'll do a part two of this.
Thomas B. Hahaha thanks! Part 2 will definitely be about the things I didn’t like that somehow German culture has taught me to love now!! Rotkohl being one of them 😂😂
Hey, if you do not like every kind of food, you are like 100% of the Germans. Our former chancler Kohl was famous for eating Saumagen (pig stomack), and here in Northern Germany we have "Labskaus". My friends from the southern parts of Germany often ask me: "Do you want to eat that, or did you already eat it?." So, no need to beat around the bush: Tastes are different. That's okay,
🙂😂 that’s true! I do love the unique variety though! It’s always entertaining learning about the traditional dishes in each village
@@lifeingermany_ Ha. Look what I found in Wikipedia: "In the late 19th century, the Hamburg steak became popular on the menus of many restaurants in the port of New York. This kind of fillet was beef minced by hand, lightly salted and often smoked, and usually served raw in a dish along with onions and bread crumbs."
MINCED MEAT is coming home :)
Labskaus is OK, but it doesn't look very appetizing. It's a bit like corned beef hash.
What's wrong with Saumagen ? I know it by the name of 'Pressack' ... Yummy ... ! ;-))) Ok I
I don't know Canada, but here my list of my top 10 worst US foods:
1. Sweet bacon with syrup
2. Marshmallows with sweet potatoes (not a dessert, eaten with actual food)
3. Anything with BBQ sauce and honey chicken wings
4. Peanut butter and jelly sandwich
5. American cake (pure sugar)
6. Mac & cheese
7. American salad dressing
8. American beer (sweetened bubbly water with alcohol)
9. American water (dirty water)
10. American donut
And extra
11. American hotdog (super soft and sweet and salty)
12. American hamburger (soft, sweet and salty)
13. French fries (salty, greasy)
I think you are in very good company, even among native Germans. I never could bring myself to try raw Mett, I don't much care for Glühwein or Heringssalat (although the latter is better when made fresh by someone with skill, I'd never eat the supermarket stuff) The Rotenburg pastry seems a very special local thing I had never heard of before. I like marzipan if the quality is good (I don't like it much as cake covering) but there are also many people who don't (almost like liquorice/Lakritz which is even more an acquired taste). It is a question of the quality as the lesser/cheaper ones are too dry and/or too sweet. The good one is sweet, soft and slightly moist and like the essence of almonds.
You are a bit unfair in case of pancakes because there are so many varietes both in Germany and the whole world and they are also easy to cook, so the lack of the north american variety is neither surprising nor a problem.
Black Forest/Schwarzwälder is also best made by oneself, then one can go easy on the Kirschwasser although it does belong there for the real thing. As with all pastry and cake the quality offered from convenience products or bakeries differs wildly and while some are delicious, some are substandard and merely sweet and artificial.
However, I regret to inform you that it is a capital offense to use flabby Sandwichbread instead of real German bakery bread in public videos!
bios theoretikos hahahaha you’re right!! I actually haven’t eaten this “flabby bread” since I moved to Germany! I totally agree! Sadly, it’s the only bread my 2 year old will eat at the moment 🙈 so mama is stuck eating the flabby bread leftovers!!
I just am in awe about how acurately the above comment (given the lenght of it) is reflecting my own thoughts/experience.
Now I simply have to disagree to the Mett-related statement and can add my thoughts on Heringssalat: I don't like the "pink" kind that supermarktes sell, whereas "Dillhappen" is one of those "funny" foods that I enjoy in small dosages but can't swallow anymore once a certain point is reached. With Dillhappen (as well as fried mushrooms by the way) this point of joy turning into disgust is reached way sooner than with any other food item I can think of.
Anybody out there who can relate?
And to the Schwarzwälder Kirsch (Torte): The amount of liquor put in really is a decisive factor here. Another thing I really dislike are those "Belegkirschen" used for decorating (those) cakes.
Just like the strawberry sauce, which is the main reason for me to dislike spaghetti icecream mostly, those taste way too (artificially) sweet in my opinion.
Really looking forward to the other videos you promised (especially hence I agree with your pick on Rotkohl mentioned in the comment section)
As being born and raised in Germany, I absolutely love Mettbrötchen. But I do understand, that if you're not familiar with it since childhood, the bare concept of eating raw, spiced meat may be desgusting. So, no blame from my side.
Also, you're absolutely right, that the cuisine in this country is very diverse. Each federal state, some areas and sometimes even a city can have it's local cuisine, you find nowhere else. If you're not accustomed to this since childhood, you may or may not find a local specialty delicious or not. Also, sometime the naming of a local specialty might be misleading. I'll give you a few examples. Some of them you may want to try, others probably not.
Cologne: "Halve Hahn" - From the name you might expect some chicken, but in reality it's a breadroll with cheese and - very important - mustard.
Hamburg/northern Germany: "Labskaus" - a dish from potatoes, beef and beetroot; I think there are a lot of germany, who do not like this because of the beetroot
Bavaria: "Weißwurst" - as you've visited the Oktoberfest, you probably know, there's a thing called "Weißwurst" and also you probably didn't try it. Well, I don't like it either. Not only is the Weißwurst itself far from delicious, you usually eat it with sweet mustard, which is absolutely no favourite of mine.
There are a lot of more local specialties here in Germany and a lot of explore for you. A many dishes have meat it in and therefore you might not try or like a lot of those. But considering your sweet tooth, an absolute must try - if you didn't try yet - is the Original Nürnberger Lebkuchen. (www.lebkuchen-nuernberg.com/ or www.lebkuchen-schmidt.com/ have the best.)
that what you show is not heringssalat. its hering in Sahne mit Apfel und Zwiebel. this is eaten to hot Pellkartoffeln as a dish. Heringssalat is eaten on bread for example Vollkornbrot.
And it usually pink.
Mett is in Germany also known as contruction workers jam 😀
Jenna just try Matjeshering;-)
Hi Jenna, just stumbled into your videos and it's so interesting to me what you like and dislike about our food . I'm from the north of Germany and OF COURSE love Mett - especially with salt, black pepper and a lot of raw onions or chive on it ! If you don't like Glühwein, have you tried hot apple juice with cinnamon and cloves ? That tastes quite christmassy and might be a good alternative. As far as pancakes I naturally like the German kind (with apple sauce and cinnamon sugar on top ( reminds me of the good old days when my grandmother made them for me) but since I stayed in the US for a year as an exchange student way back in 1969 I grew very fond of the American kind ( with salted butter and lots of maple sirup on top )- yummy !
'Mest'P.S. After watching the rest of your video I totally agree with you on the "Heringsalat" but not as much on Marzipan. I live in Germany's Marzipan-City of Lübeck , the home of "Niederegger Marzipan", and I 'd suggest that you try again since there are in fact different recipes . E.g. we have a factory here called 'Mest' that produce a soft and not so sweet Marzipan that is delicious. Since it is a very tiny factory you can buy their goods only directly at the factory and in only one little shop in Lübeck. So why not visit Lübeck after the Corona pandemic ? I promise it will be worth it - not just because of the Marzipan but because of the ancient city centre and the seaside nearby .
Glühwein: Everything depends on the quality of the wine.
Eisdielen with real good spaghetti 🍨 I miss it so much in Sweden. I agree with you about the Mettbrötchen!
Bis zum Spaghettieis warst du mir sehr sympathisch 😂
Wie kann man das nicht mögen 😳
Von den Schneebällen habe ich noch nie was gehört, aber die sehen schon sehr staubig aus 😂 Mettbrötchen habe ich früher geliebt, ordentlich Zwiebeln drauf, einfach geil. Marzipan und Glühwein brauche ich auch nicht.
What's wrong with Marzipan? It's mostly almonds, powdered sugar and maybe a little rosewater. The ingredients are supposed to be a big sekret I am writig about fron Luebeck. Try Apfelschmalz. We made it ourselves of greaves and apples after the war and I like it still.
Mett is love Mett is life! But I get the Marzipan part. I like it on its own but on a cake its the worst part. All the sugar in the cake ruins your taste buds for anything else. When I have Marzipan decorations on my slice, I try to eat them firt, because I know they will taste horrible after the first bite of the cake.
Hahha couldn’t have said the marzipan sentence better myself! 🤣
If you would try real Marzipan from Niederegger for example you would realize that it´s not very sweet. Just fake marzipan or Persipan tastes awfully sweet. You get what you pay for.
@@zeldazyklus7044 I love marzipan, but marzipan cake just isn't very good. It's too sweet and tastes one dimensional. I would pick cheesecake, any berry cake or butterkuchen over it any day of the week.
I laughed so hard during this video, because it's first one about "weird" German food I totally disagree upon XD. Concerning pancakes, have you tried fresh grated potatoe pankakes (Reibekuchen) with applesauce/puree, like grandma style? Marvelous! The other thing is the hering salat. What you have shown in the video is, pardon my french, trash! There are variations, that if they homemade, which are awesome, like the polish variation. But I prefer the one from nothern Germany with beetroot. Homemade it's the bomb (IMHO)!
I am a 43-yo German hating and successfully ignoring Marzipan for 43 years. You are not alone!
I'm German, too and totally agree with you about Marzipan
Schwarzwälder Kirsch is booze and it s typically a main part of this cake !

It's normal that tastes are different.
Don't Canadians also smear Marmite on their "bread"?
If you ever visit the eastern parts of Germany around Christmas season, you can try "Glühbier", basically mulled wine, but with beer. Often attributed to an old Polish recipe.

The meat is absolutely save to eat.
It's such a simple thing. And after a long hard work day there is nothing better than a mettbrötchen with lots of onions
This was quite funny. Heringsalat and Mettbrötchen I loved as a kid, so fresh and yummy. Have you tried Pfannkuchen Mühle in Neunkirchen-Seelscheid. Really cool place when I was growing up in Germany. Now we are residing in Canada, since 14 years. We miss a lot of German food yes, Brötchen und Marzipan. Deutsches Marzipan is fantastish and we love it. Sometime, around Christmas, they have it in Freshco or Food Basics. Or the Christmas package from Oma. The marzipan on Canadian cake isn't the same. lol
I was shocked when I saw the prices for food here in Canada (mind boggeling) and again when we visited Germany last time, how cheap it is to get good food there. Ach ja und Schwarzwälderkirschtorte, I wasn't ever a big fan of it but the Canadian version is just a chocolate cake with cherry on top, nothing in comparison. Lol that is all mostly depending on what and how we grew up I guess. Nice & funny video, great job Jenna!
Glühwein: Come to the Frankfurt Area and try Hot Applewine. Also, I personally don't really like the standard red Glühwein anymore, but discovered that good sellers also have white Glühwein (at least in Frankfurt)..... lot better.
And in Frankfurt you MUST try 'Grüne Soße'. It's sooo delicious (and I'm not a 'Frankfurterin').

Hi, Hering mit Dillsauce gibt es zum Mittag mit gekochten Kartoffeln. Heringssalat rot gibt es auf Brot zum Abendbrot. Try it.
You covered at least 3 of my personal favorites. I love Marzipan (and tend to make it myself) and Heringssalat. And high quality fresh and raw meat as in "Mett" is delicious (much fresher than cooked meat and with much more suptile flavours).
Of cause I do not convince vegetarians and I know that tastes are different and that some foods seem especially strange, if you are not accustomed to them. But I would really recommend to stay open minded and not to rely on the taste of one canadian if you visit germany. If people do not try stuff themselfes, they will be missing out on a lot of pretty great tastes.
Toastbrot is not sandwich.
Toastbrot is bread that is meant to be toasted. Better, it is designed to be really good after(!) it is toasted.
That's why it is Toastbrot an not sandwich (breadl
In fact toast is a false friend as in English it is short for *toasted bread" and in German it is short for "Toastbrot" (and that is as mentioned above "bread meant to be toasted" )

We actually got an "american diner" here by the motorway in Bremen. It's called Daisy's Diner, so maybe that's where you're pancake chase might lead you to :P
Omg yes! Thank you!
@@lifeingermany_ The best pancakes in Germany you will find in Hildesheim, Lower Saxony (by the way, Hildesheim is always nice for a visit with the Fachwerkhaus-Marktplatz, Andreaskirche and famous 1000 year old Hildesheimer Dom). In Cafe Beste you will find lots of pancake-sorts (with meet, with different cheese, with marmelades, etc). So yummy, I love it! www.antik-cafe.info/speisekarte.html
@@lifeingermany_ pannekoekenbakker nijmegen!!! go there and you will change your mind about pancakes FOREVER!
It is not good to know before tasting a food what might be on your plate. If you do not know and try food without any influence it is much easier to find your personal favorits and nogoes.
Once I was in China and tried all food mostly without knowing what it was. The only one exeption were chicken feet. They looked disgusting for me and I did not try them. Now I am angry about myself to not having tried there taste. Maybe I had liked it as I all the other food liked. Some things I ate had a texture anywhere beetween mushrooms, meat and algees and tasted like nothing I have eaten before. I still do not know what it was but it all was great.
Btw I like Mettbrötchen with lots of onions on top. It is fresh and absolutely delicious. Also Spagettieis and Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte is superb. And finally marzipan I love it especially the marzipan bread with dark choclate around.
Great video I liked it 😘
Oh gosh....a very long time ago I was introduced to chicken feet....I flat out refused to even get near them....no way....never! :)
I tried chicken feet in a Chinese restaurant bc my friend said I should, so i did, and i loved it! Now i always look for chicken feet on the menu 😋
We can't argue about taste. I suppose. But it's worth to try everything even if we are blocked by our education. As in one comment said, it's good not to know the ingredients or typ of the offered or served food..... Once I have been invited in Kenya to an "eunoto" [big Maassai ceremony]. I expected I would have to drink these "disgusting" mixture from sour cow milk, blood and same ash out of a "smelly" calabash [like your Heringssalat].I ran away and missed the ceremony. Later I regretted.. .. Just the other day my neighbor here in France [I'm in holidays in Normandy] invited me and offered me a slice of a paté. I know the French like offals and giblets. So I was suspicious but suddenly I remembered that Maassai-trauma and started half-happily to eat. It was delicious! As my neighbor said [casual and a bit proud]: "I have prepared it from fresh pork's brain, isn't it delicious!" it hit me heavily. I nodded, smiled somehow... Will never buy it [like you a Mettbrötchen], but could also eat it any time without shivering when offered.
Hi, I was born in Budapest, spent lot of years in NYC now live in Regensburg, Germany. My husband is German. Totally relate to the fresh air thing..we watched that video yesterday I was cracking up. I sometimes tell him..oh my god don't be so German😃
Jenna don’t worry about what you like and what you don’t as even the German have different tastes..😉
I've been living in germany since three years, there are foods that I don't even tried like Sauerkraut, Heringssalat, Mettbrochen etc.
I consider they have a quiet special taste.
I think Gluckwein at the Christmas market.
But in general they have a good cuisine.
Nothing wrong with wild rice, Newfoundland cod in batter, smoked salmon (not to be confused with liquid oxygen :-), and smoked Arctic char. You could make a warm breakfast using fried Nuernberg sausages combined with fried potatoes, eggs sunny side up, toast, butter, preserves, etc. Summer tends to be more and more like summer in Toronto, hot and muggy. Welcome to Germany. Je Suis Samuel.
Hey Jenna, love your videos! If you really wanna creep yourself out with German food, try "Ochsenmaulsalat" or "Kutteln" :-D
Come to Herzogenaurach and try Spaghetti Verde ice-cream! It‘s pistachio icecream with „tomato sauce and cheese“ 😀 They probably have it in other parts of Germany, too.
Ooooh yum!! I love pistachio ice cream!!
I can relate to some of the things you said , even Curry Wurst the alltime german favorite , I have mostly had enough of . Though it is something that if you are into it you have to find "the one" shop where they do the sauce the way you like and use the right saugage. I do not know If it measures up to your standards but there is actually a place in Bonn so probably near by that has Northamerican Pancakes on the menu .. It is called "cartoon" . It is a bistro Restaurant where you also can get cocktails. The pancakes are aktually a remnant of the former Concept of the house beeing one half cocktailbar and one half american Diner with a little front cooking . But that did not work out so they rebuild it. Also in Düsseldorf and Cologne you can look out for russian Restaurants. They have a pancake culture too and if they are sweet served on the menu the dough is usualy too though they havent got the form of north American pancakes. In Düsseldorf I know two of them the Beluga that also has a Website and the Isbuschka which has not.
Wow! This is amazing thank you so much! I will check all of them out one day 🤩🤞
I was born in Germany but have lived in Australia for 55 years. Never been back to Germany. I remember mett brotchen and I loved it. It does sound gross for everyone I know now but I would jump at the chance to have it again.
Ohh mein Gott, Mettbrötchen.... könnt ich mich reinlegen und für sterben!!! Hab mal in Essen gearbeitet, 16 Leute in der Abteilung und bei 80% der Geburtstage gabs n Mettfrühstück. Das hieß 30 bis 40 Brötchen, 3 bis 4kg Mett und 1,5kg Zwiebeln. War alles immer um halb 1 weg :)
So you find Heringssalat disgusting. Then you should stay away from Labskaus or "Tote Oma"
EDIT: Fun Fact: The Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte was not invented in the Black Forest. Actually the first cakes of that kind came from the Rhineland. They are called that way because they use Schwarzwälder Kirschwasser in it, a booze made from cherries.
Who could hate you?! You are very nice, fun and personable (is it the right translation for being "sympathisch"??) By the way I absolutely know what you mean! ;-) I am from Austria, but in some things we are very similiar to our german neighbours and soo different too at the same time :). As native I had quite the same issues as you, particularly as very young girl (hating marcipan, schwarzwäler kirsch was not my favorite, and I was disgusted by beef tartar (it's like Mett). So maybe age helps to like some food in the future ;-). Very kind regards from Vienna/Austria! What a pity, that you are not living here :)
Spaghettieis gibt es inzwischen in so vielen Sorten... Ich persönlich mochte das "klassische" auch nie so gerne, aber da gibt es eins, das ist einfach nur genial. Spaghettieis aus Vanille- und Schokoeis, mit Karamelsoße (oder Eierlikör, aber ich habs nicht so mit dem Alkohol) und Walnüssen.
It's funny to watch you talking about food..
Although I love lots of the stuff you dislike, I completely understand your feelings, and with heringssalat I go along with you.
Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte is only good, when there is not too much Kirsch in it. It's just to give the flavour but if you feel drunk after a single bite, you definitely picked the wrong piece of cake. Unfortunately you find this kind of stuff more often than the good ones. So I only eat my own homemade cake.
Use Mett to make meatballs or burger patties. Once it's cooked it has a great flavour.
Pop over to Holland and visit a Pannekoekenhuis (pancake restaurant) Great pancakes in so many different varieties.
I'm a Brit Ex-pat so I can relate to a lot of your videos.Even after being here over 30 years.
There's a regional name for tap water - gänsewein (goose wine).
Ich stimme dir teilweise zu, teilweise natürlich nicht ;-) Es ist eine Frage des persönlichen Geschmacks. Kurz zum Mett: ein Leben ohne Mett ist möglich, es ist aber nicht erstrebenswert. Interessieren würde mich, wie du zu folgenden deutschen Spezialitäten stehst. Teilweise enthalten sie Fleisch, ich kennzeichne das, muß keiner essen: Labskaus (enthält Fleisch), Pickert (Pancake, der auf Kartoffel (!) basiert), Wurstebrei (enthält Fleisch, westfälisches Haggis).
Ich mag deinen Kanal sehr gerne, es ist immer interessant, einen Blick von außen zu bekommen. Ich hoffe, du machst noch viele Videos.
@6:45 It is called Mc Cafè at McDonalds.
German pancakes are the same as american pancakes in regard of getting a good premade pancake - it's nearly impossible. In addition, you have different kinds of pancakes, like Eierpfannkuchen, Apfelpfannkuchen or Kartoffelpfannkuchen. Recipies can differ a lot depending on region or even from family to family. Everyone makes them as they like them best. Therefore, you have to test different recipies and modify them to your liking.
The main difference compared to american pancakes is probably that most germans don't add baking soda. If i want to have a fluffy dough however (f.e. for Apfelpfannkuchen), i would beat the egg white before i mix it to the dough.
Powder is usually used in restaurants, because it looks nicer, but at home most people would use ordinary sugar or honey to sweeten their pancakes (which is more effective). You could also use sugar beet syrup (i know it as Fenner Harz), jam or maple syrup.
When i want to have my pancakes sweeter, i usually add a banana to the dough. I learned from a lot of germans that they do it occasionally, even though i don't think it's traditional. When you want them salty, just add cheese to the dough.
-
The snowballs you can buy differ A LOT in quality and taste. When i was there, i ate some that were delicious and some that were disgusting. Sadly, good bakeries are on the brink of extinction. I have seen a lot of videos where foreigner test "german bread" and just by looking at the bread i knew i wouldn't like that. Finding really good bread has become a difficult task nowadays, especially if you don't know what you are looking for.
I cracked up laughing - can totally relate, except for the Mettbrötchen. I am vegan for 6 years now and still craving it sometimes...My cousin from LA was so disgusted when she saw it the first time visiting me in Germany. She also took several photos from different angles, she couldn't believe it.
"She also took several photos from different angles" - Very funny!
Yes, Jenna is totally nice, I like her too! I have a question: is it so unusual in USA and Canada to eat beef tartar?..it is like Mettbrötchen-Belag! Because in England, France, Germany, Austria there is Beef Tartar (a raw ground beef mixed up with seasoning, served with toasted white bread (sometimes drizzeld with garlic-oil)
I laughed so much as I read your fun story with your cousin, and I read it to my husband. He laughed too. I am also disgusted and he loves eating it. So it was very recognizable for us.;-)
....@@elisabethkonrad-amon4020 it's very rare to eat beef tartar here in the USA never seen it on the menue in any upscale restaurant....😂
@@inka87871 That is very popular here in Wisconsin. Usually served at Christmas/New Years but mostly at home with very high quality lean ground beef. Beef must be freshly ground and eaten the same day.
Ohh thank you... I am German and can relate to most of these... especially some of the meaty things 🤢 but I hope there are still some German foods you enjoy :) btw, it’s so much fun to watch your videos, interesting topics and overall great content. Keep it up! :)
Here in Düsseldorf Benrath is everyday a Foodtruck with real Berlin Curry Wurst. Try this
In Germany, airport codes are like DUS, FRA, BER, etc. In Canada, they go like YYZ, YWG, etc.!! Je Suis Samuel.
Even here in Freiburg christmas market on every both the Glühwein tastes different.
Many Americans/Canadians don’t know what marzipan is. Do you? It’s ground almonds, sugar, and rose water. So my question is what is it about marzipan that you don’t like? Just curious. 😀
That’s a good question! Haha I had no idea what it was actually made from - but I can tell you I definitely am no ran of rose water - have tried it many times and just can’t get used to it 🤣 ... but I think many of the lower quality ones I’ve tried are just from corn syrup! I love almonds, so not sure why I don’t fancy marzipan so much! Probably because I haven’t actually tried a REAL good quality one! I must!
Have you tried making pancakes from scratch? Can you get bisquick there, Krusteaz. I would often bring a 5 pound bag to a friend in Germany. Good luck on your quest! And as for Mett, nit for me. Schönes Wochenende und Gruß von Kalifornien.
Phil Hall Sr I make pancakes from scratch every weekend for my son 🥰 delicious! Just sometimes it’s nice to go out and splurge too!
Try Mett, it's soooo good.
I need to go out and get a Mettbrötchen just thinking about it :D
I can only speak for myself, born and raised in the Ruhr district but living most of my life near the North Sea coast: American style pancakes I cannot eat. I tried them - but even less sweetened they are way too sweet and I need old savoury cheece (or something like that) to get my mouth and stomach back to function again.
Haha Jenna, you’re so much fun. Don’t apologize, we all have something that we don’t enjoy. I second the Herringsalat and the marzipan!
The curry ketchup I couldn't agree more. Also what is it with paprika crisps? Or paprika spice in chips?
Luisa Riera Lamela hahahaha agreed! I’m just thrilled Lays is starting to make a big debut here - sour cream & onion! 🥰🤩🤗
have you been to Hamburg or Bremen for Krabben Brötchen
Been to Hamburg and Bremen but never tried the Krabben Brötchen! On my list! 🥰 thanks!
My friend from Canada hated Pflaumenmus! It was soooo funny! Her face was : WTF! Are you trying to kill me? Then again she loved Tsaiziki. Well, Quark in general.
Well, being German I hate Currywurst and Marzipan. Haven't ever had a Schneeball. Mettbrötchen is something I don't really need and I only would eat it with a lot of onions. But I do like curry ketchup. For pan cakes I mix flour, eggs etc myself and I do add sugar to the dough, not onlu on top. Spaghettieis is not on my diet which is because vanilla and strawberry are not my favourite flavours in ice cream, but I like how it looks. Sahneheringe is something my mom served with Pellkartoffeln which is the only way I would consume them
Gehört Marzipan in Kanada nicht zu Weihnachten?
Neee, nicht wirklich! 😝
Hi Jenna! Well, I'm living in Germany since 1982 (coming from Romania), and imagine, I never tried the Mettbrotchen! Moreover, I don't really miss it, there are so many other tasty foods - like for ex the thin crêpes, AKA Palatschinken :-)) Just try to make them yourself, with sugar. Best would be to find a real hungarian (or austrian) recipe.
About the hering and similar salads (wurst or seafood or some such): I never ever buy the ready mades from the supermarket, I make them myself. I don't like the sauce from supermarket either, there is stuff in them it doesn't belong there.
Mettbrötchen.... der einzige Grund, in Germany zu bleiben 😂🤣
Das was in den Geschäften, sowie in Keksen, Kuchen und Co in der Regel so als Marzipan angeboten wird, ist für mich kein ordentlicher Marzipan, bzw. handelt es sich eh meistens um Persipan, bzw ein Gepansche aus Beidem, wobei der Marzipan dann auch möglichst billig, hergestellt wurde.
Ungeniessbar!
Das ist so süss, klumpig und pappig, dass es mir den Gaumen zusammen zieht.
Guter Marzipan ist sehr aromatisch, soft, zergeht auf der Zunge und hat eine angenehme Süsse.
Muss man aber ein paar €€ mehr für auf den Tisch legen.
Lohnt sich jedoch.
Spaghettieis ist lecker, wenn man es in einer wirklich guten Eisdiele bestellt.
Mir sind die Portionen aber immer zu gross.
Heringssalat schmeckt nur selbstgemacht gut.
Dieses übersäuerte und mit chemischen Kunstzuckern angereicherte Zeug aus den Supermärkten kann man in die Tonne kloppen!
Kein Wunder, dass Du es nicht mochtest.
Wenn Du mal Gelegenheit bekommst, selbstgemachten Heringssalat zu probieren, dann wirst Du einen RIESENUNTERSCHIED feststellen.
Ebenso bei Heringsstip, den man zu Pellkartoffeln isst.
Viele Grüsse
Die gezeigte Packung WAR eine Art von Heringsstipp, kein Heringssalat.
Hmm, hast du denn schon mal Rote Beete Heringssalat (!!!selbstgemacht!!!) probiert? Sehr gut :)
Don’t ever believe Satan! He always seduces ladies with apples of forbidden trees and Rote Beete Herungssalat!!! 😩
@@cyrill3000 Damn it, it allmost worked... But i´m so lonly down here, i need a hug ;) But you know what? Apples really are part of the recipe for this lol
@@satanmitdengeilenbarthaaren,
als Hamburger weiß man doch wie Heringssalat gemacht wird. ☺️ Rote Beete mag ich sehr gern, aber im Heringssalat mag ich sie nicht so gerne. Ich mag am liebsten Matjes, süßer Apfel, Schalotten, Gurken, Radieschen, Dill, schwarzen Pfeffer, Crème fraïche, Joghurt, etwas Zitronenschalenabrieb und ein paar Spritzer Saft. Aber keine Discounter Matjes kaufen, die schmecken grausam und sind unmöglich verarbeitet! Ich habe einen guten Fischhändler. Da sind die so mild geräuchert, dass der Geschmack nicht umgenietet wird und man immer zwei Filet zuviel bestellt. Eins für den Heimweg und etwas Schwund beim Schnibbeln is ja nu auch, ne? Oder dänischen Herkngssalat den mag ich wohl auch...
@@cyrill3000 Joo jedem das seine. Ich finds lecker. Mit der roten Beete, den Äpfeln und den Walnüssen hat man noch was so schön knackiges mit drin.
...Boah, ich glaub ich geh nachher ersma einkaufen :) Lg vom Niederrhein
@@satanmitdengeilenbarthaaren, Haselnüsse mache ich auch gelegentlich hinein. ☺️ Bei mir gibt’s heute Rehgulasch mit Pilzen. Ein Freund von mir ist Jäger und hat mir eine Keule und Filets mitgebracht. getrocknete Steinpilze habe ich noch aus dem letzten Jahr.
Für Fofftein (Hamburger Tee-/Kaffeestündchen) hab ich noch Scones von gestern. Das heißt: nach einem bisschen Homeoffice wird das eine herrliche Perspektive.
Viel Spaß beim Kochen und hinterher Genießen!
Beste Grüße in die Hölle von Moers, Kamp-Lintfort oder wo auch immer Du lebst!

Heringssalat: What you showed was just "Sahne-Hering". Hering, with onions apples and sour cream. Heringssalat is something different. More like a salad, mostly with beetroot etc..
This pack of so called "Heringsalat" looked strange to me. The "real" Heringsalat is of pink colour (coming from beetroot), the chunks of haring are relatively small, and pieces of apples and walnuts give it a subtile taste. This kind of a side dish is not THE favorite dish of mine, but served right from the fridge with a slice of hot toast with melting butter on it, is a must have once or twice a year. If you want to give it a second try, look out in supermarkets (no discounters please!) for the brand "Merl" (producing in my home town, south of Cologne) - no paid ad!
This package shown seems to be "(Sahne-)Hering Hausfrauenart", cured haring in a creamy, slightly sweetened sauce with apples and onions in it. To be served with "Pellkartoffeln" (aka Quallmänner), mostly on Friday (the tradtional lent-day in the Rhineland, where one is/was supposed to eat fish).
If you have a hangover, Mettbrötchen 4:00min, is the best food to eat
😂😂😂🙈🙈🤮 I don’t think I could do that post-drinking!! Ahhhh
I love Mettbrötchen BUT i am pretty careful where i get them or where i get the Mett to prepare them myself (which comes from my experience of 14 years working with butchers, listening to them and knowing that there is an individual difference in the amount of salt, pepper and onions that people like). Same goes for cheese, if someone tells me in general what he/she likes to eat i nearly always know the perfect cheese for them. Oh and I never heard of Glühwein with white wine before but this could be a Hamburg thing.
Using Mett cosmetical as a face mask could be the first step to a new passion.😂
Cause it's rückfettend.
juri carmichel 😂🙈
