Damn Nalf is becoming German to a point where he soon will be growing Socken in Sandalen :D
😂😂😂
You need to dress for practicality, not for style. 😉
That is a little known fact about germans that we really need to point out: We don't wear socken in sandalen because we like wearing that, they simply *grow*, and it's kinda like shaving - you have to cut off the Socken in Sandalen every day, but most germans are too lazy to do that, and that's why you see so many germans with Socken in Sandalen.
🤪🤣
Nothing wrong with wearing socks to sandals.
It's only white (Tennis-)socks that are a problem. Simply because they attract all the dirt, and then look yucky.
But socks of different color _(where the dirt isn't showing as much)_ are fine.
It is utterly fascinating, how watching an american in germany makes me, a german, appreciate germany so much more. What we take for granted... isn´t. Weekends like that? Pretty standard. Yet, to an outsider, different and interesting. "Utopic" even. How about that.
Definitely, especially before the world locked down it was a treat. Miss it.
Well, the traditional weekend for me is saturdays working on private stuff (housekeeping, gardening, foresting, wine, etc.) and saturday is just straight chilling, kaybe going on a walk, but not much more most of the time.
Friday: Out for a Ride, Saturday: Cleaning bike. Sunday: Out for a Ride. I notice a systematic lack of pretzels in my weekends...
Actually, the bakery at REWE is not a supermarket bakery, but an outlet of a "real" bakery (Kern, in your case) which has subleased some space in the entry space of the supermarket. You'll find that very often in Germany. Those supermarkets often additionally have their own bakery corner inside the main shop with some machinery frequently heating up dough pats to different types of rolls, bread and sometimes even croissants, baguettes or pretzels.
And you cannot generelly tell, which one is better, you just can try. Sometimes both do in-store baking with prepared or frozen dough.
Also, the brezels are usually among the few products actually baked there behind the counter in the shop, not delivered from the "Backstube".
@@DavidWilliams-DSW558 Well, yes and no. The Brezeln are made out of ready made and already formed dough, sometimes even including the salting. The only thing they do in the shop at the location is heating them up, but everything else is done in a bakery or in some factory.
Kind of, @@Dahrenhorst, but the salt has to be put on the pre-formed (and possibly deep frozen) dough when they are put in the oven and then they are sprayed with a special glaze (the lauge, which I think is basically brine) during the baking process, once they are golden brown, to give them that glossy surface finish.
Kern is from Wüstenrot (yes, the second town with a "Bausparkasse") and Kern is a decent medium sized bakery with outlets all around this part of Hohenlohe/Heilbronn-Franken/Schwäbisch Hall
Eine Gänseblümchenkrone!!! Da werden Kindheitserinnerungen wach..
"After practise, I went to the gym". A sentence nobody will ever hear from me. 🤣
The German appreciation of the simple things in life (butter pretzel, beer, nature) could teach the rest of us a thing or two.
Nalf has quite the life.
bavarian appreciation!
Nalf's Brezolophy: It's all about the contrast of crunchyness and softness.
And someone else than him, to spread the butter on it :D
@@lemurkirsche7891 and not to forget to put enough salt on the brezel, or you get rated under 7😂😂
@L.C. 🤣😂👍
Yep, that Laura steals the show every time!
Yeah, and she's a real dream girl, at least in my opinion..!
I like how Nalf makes a science out of ordinary pretzels.
@@miss_ding for example?
*Brezel 😄
@@miss_ding how do you know, that he doesn't speak or study the language?
@UCFhptgCgRh0XC-b6F-lyrUg, dein Kauderwelsch ergibt keinen Sinn: wem muss er etwas beweisen und was für ein Missbrauch überhaupt? If you don't like his videos - don't watch them!
@@miss_ding, just stick to your comments and don't delete them afterwards.
If you don't want my attention just don't call my name in your comments.
I've been a 'professional' butter spreader at a local gas station and I'm slicing the whole Brezel. All the Brezel is spread with butter ;) a lot of my regulars and I guess Germans just would eat butter by it's own haha
We don't eat bread with butter ontop. We eat butter with some bread beneath it
good man! this is the way.. :)
Actually, I did eat butter alone once. It wasn't that bad. But you can't eat too much of it.
@@o.b.7217 Don't eat butter alone... get friends to eat butter in a group
Man that's yum.
Daumen hoch für die Gänseblümchenkrone! 🌼👑
Fashion Trend.
There is a festival in honor of the pretzel in my hometown Speyer every year in July :D A traditional bakery sells Brezeln in several tiny glass houses (all year round). You can also get Butter Brezeln. People either love or hate the traditional ones since the dough is a bit different. I personally (as a kid from Speyer) think Speyrer Brezeln are way better than the ones from bakery chains. I would be happy to hear your opinion about it. It's not far from Hall and a trip could be combined with the german wine route, also known as german tuscany. It is worth a visit ;)
I like this idea, especially since it's close to SHA.
You sold it. I'm going. 😋
@@sonjaenste647 So am I! See you all there.
For everyone interested: In 2022 it's July 6th to 12th.
And let's not forget the *"Technik-Museum Speyer"* and the *"Speyerer (Speyrer?) Dom".*
NALF is interested in cultural stuff, so that should be right uphis alley.
New aspects of the NALF identity: brezolopher with a touch of hippiesque retro charm. Good job Laura!
For the best Butter-Pretzel-Experience go to Aldi, buy a 10-pack of pretzels from the freezer. Bake them at home and eat them right after they've cooled down to room temperature. Have to apply the salt and the butter yourself though. But better than any professional bakery pretzel because you can't get them any fresher anywhere. And they're much cheaper. You're welcome.
He's seriously getting the weekend vibe. Well done!
Man, I remember around 15 years ago, each morning I would drive to university and stop at a tiny local bakery.
I always arrived when the fresh Bezels came out the oven and the lady would always ask if I want another butter Brezel.
It was the ultimate butter Brezel.
Of course driving to the university was just an excuse. ;)
The German baking industry should make Nick a Pretzel Ambassador…
Congrats to Cody and Speedy 🥰👶
Okay, I'm going to share my very secret Butterbretzel tip with you: If you ever come to the city of Schwäbisch Gmünd (which is not far from Schwäbisch Hall), you should visit the "Bäckerei Stemke" and get one there. It's a dream.
Now crowned King Nalf the first of Butterbrezel Land 🤴🏻🥨😉
Isn't life essentially all about finding good vibes? You have come a long way... 👍
It's funny how you philosophize about pretzels in every second video
The real thing.
That was my Pausenbrot, when I went to elementary school. The local bakery was maybe 50 yards from the school, and they delivered the absolutely best Brezeln anywhere for the school, besides Broetchen or Schneckennudeln. Perfectly crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside. Don't ever buy any Brezel in Northern Germany. They do not know how to make them there. You'll lose a tooth, biting into those.
Had to google for Schneckennudeln, that's really regional. Don't blame the Northern bakeries. They know how to do it, just people don't eat it for breakfast, and as a snack in the stadium or beer garden, they are sometimes hours old. It's not the bakers fault.
@@holger_p isn't southern vocabulary funny? and the 2nd 'n' in Schnecken is silent in this case, just in case somebody wants to know how to properly pronounce it. :)
@@holger_p I had visited my sister near Hamburg, and I was craving a Bretzel. My sister had warned me, that the Bretzels there were horrible but I bought one anyway because I wanted one so bad. It was rock hard and basically inedible. My sister told me, they just don't know how to bake them up there and they were always hard as a rock. I learned my lesson the hard way, pun intended. On the flip side, whenever my sister visited us in the Southwest, she'd load up on Bretzels, bread and Wurst und Fleischwaren, to take back up North.
@@supernova19805 so from one place you extrapolate to an entire area?
I think you just had bad luck. Some bake with passion, others with machines.
I trust my sister's experiences she's had over decades living up North, and tried to tell me. Can't have had just bad luck, the entire time, she lived there. I may have had only one bad Bretzel experience while there, but she had an almost entire lifetime of "bad luck" Bretzel experiences.
That place is the paradise. Nice town. Love it. A hug from South America.
When you’re done with Butterbrezel, next level is:
Brezeln, out-of-the-fridge-cold-fresh-butter …. and NUTELLA. 🤤😋
oh, i tried that one once at a friends house back in germany. Addictive like hell.
When I lived in Germany I loved them and had them at every opportunity. But now (back in Sweden) I can only get them at Lidl. They are good, but I have to butter them myself and they are only as amazing as you expect, fresh the first day from the bakery corner of the shop. I sometimes I cheat a bit and add some cheese in it and put them in the microwave. Try that if you haven't already! It is probably considered sacrilege by German standards, but it is absolutely delicious!
The flower crown makes you like an extra from Midsommar
At IKEA?
Just like the ancient folk wisdom says: Nalf takes his Butter-Brezn "with a grain of salt!"
Proper Butterbrezel in my eyes is completely cut and has butter everywhere. It needs to be butter with a little Brezel around.
Wooooooh STOP! I missed the birth of Cody and Speedys little Bonsai. GZ Hope all are healthy
Brezel is all about the freshness, warm out ouf the oven is the best
So funny, you should make it your job, we seriously have a shortage of official butter pretzel testers 😎
Love the sweet flower crown!
Thanks for the lovely episode Nalf. The weather looks nice this year. ☀️💐🌺
That butter Brezel rating is an amazing idea im hyped to see whats gonna be the best one
You can save significant time on your Brezn research if you limit it to BaWü and Bayern. No point in checking further north, we don't know how to do these, unfortunately. Not sure if there are areas in RLP, Hesse or Thuringia where you can get a decent Brezn, don't want to exclude it, but these would probably be adjacent to BW/BY.
As Thuringian my answer is no. We are all about Thüringer Brätl, Rostbratwurst and Klöße ;)
@@olip.5446 Aschaffenburg in Hessen has great Prezels^^
@@JJJT- Aschaffenburg gehört zwar zur Rhein-Main-Region aber liegt trotzdem in Bayern.
@@gerterich Das war der Scherz an der Sache...
Hier in nrw habe ich noch keine brezeln gesehen.☹
Wow that Halbe-ordering-skills from NALF are stunning!
At 1:26 his curl form starts to deteriorate, but our hero continues with the reps. Anything for the shot.
Does he really have to pump up to go to a beer garden?
TSGO
AFTS. TSGO.
It‘s so fun watching your approach to German culture. You are very appreciative which makes it easier for me taking a look on the nice sides of Germany again. I‘m sure you soon will be addicted to Oxy. I mean oxygen! 😇 hiking, Biergarten, sitting on the lawn of a park (halfnaked) 😂 you‘re doing good assimilating, Nalf! 🥨
I'm German and deeply impressed by your Bretzel game, bro! I do respect things like that, because whenever I'm in the US, I escalate about Donuts the exact same way. When I went to Krispy Kreme the first time, I completely lost it. Everybody was making fun of me, but I just didn't care. Btw: are Laura and you a thing? Asking for a friend. :)
if you ever visit north carolina then you must stop by britt's donuts in carolina beach ( just south of wilmington). every night krispy kreme cries itself to sleep praying to grow up and become a britt's donut. just plan your trip carefully, in general, they are only open from the end of may to the beginning of september.
@@jgeur a round-trip ticket frankfurt-charlotte would be around 800€ atm. How many days of stay would justify one britt's donut in your opinion? :D
@@fraenkiboii one...you can fly home the next day. there's nothing else worth seeing in north carolina. and it's worth a first class ticket. full disclosure, britt's donuts have a very short half life, after only a few hours they become stale. they must be eaten while they're still warm.
Love the weekend chill vibes 😍 i’m not a picky pretzel eater, but I agree, the environment in which you enjoy one matters most. The best pretzel I had was while visiting Salzburg at Stiegl Keller biergarten 👌🏻
You should have included the Native German Lady Laura in your pretzel review and have a he/she review of the butter pretzels plus an American vs German perspective of a good pretzel.
That’s a good idea, Joe. Actually we did shoot one, but I thought three pretzels reviews in one video might be too many 😂 so maybe next time.
@@NALFVLOGS It probably would be too much.
However, try one where you both review a pretzel, one of you in english, one in german with subtitles ?
Don't be silly: You have been here long enough to know that real bakers are not open anymore late Saturday afternoon. But otherwise, the town looks wonderful.
The pretzel philosopher. Check The pretzel and The Laugenspitz in Heilbronn at Gruner.
And that's why I prefer the Bavarian Brezn. They are a bit chubbier so you can have butter all the way round 😋
you must know about the gas station pretzel situation? they provide baked up frozen pretzels several times a day, all day every day. of course they often lack the crunch factor - but are pretty much the same as what you get at a rewe outlet. most likely a lot less stale.. if not picked up at around 10 pm.. ;)
What a put down of all the people here pushing their special bakeries. LOL
@@mojojim6458 as a german myself, enjoying a good butter pretzel for as long as i can think - i in fact did have some of the better ones at gas stations.
i'm all in favor of the "bäcker handwerk" - but had to learn the hard way that a good ole bakery for itself is no longer a guarantee for the best baked goods there are.. :/
@@derkohler2380 Blasphemy!!! The pretzel bakery police will be coming for you.
@@mojojim6458 i anticipated that and left the eu already.. xD
@@derkohler2380 LOL
Your comedic talents are great!
"it had really good moments"
never thought I get to hear that in a Brezn review 😂👌👌👌
Je mag dankbaar zijn voor het gezelschap van deze fantastische dame...
I watch this vid 3 days after upload. Well, its heavy snow outside.
Anyway, congratulations to the little baby girl😍😍😍
Have you introduced Mikey to Knoppers Happy hippo and other sweets so he can get addicted to germany and won't leave until he has to?
I am from Aalen, Germany and love your videos :)
You want Pretzels? Ever heard about the "Bretzelfest" in Speyer RLP?
My hometown, famous for pretzels, over 2000 year's old.
Rich history and Architectur.
Worth a visit.
I have to go and eat bread of some description now. Don’t talk to me until I‘ve done it.
My Spitzl that I filmed for you, Nick, it’s a 10, believe me. It’s even better than it looks.
Ahhhh Summer is here (yes, it is, I‘m Welsh, this is already Summer for me). I can’t believe how much I am looking forward to Biergarten vibe collecting.
Perfect oxygen levels/vibes, temperature and general nature vibes is in spring (imho) !
3:53 Other people want to have a relaxed weekend too! Especially when you work in customer service all week.
Your videos kinda make it seem like all you ever eat are Butterbrezeln. 😅
"flowercrowns are unisex.. its Europe" love it! :D 🌸🌸🌸
Nalf, you HAVE to visit the Europapark Theme Park in Rust near Freiburg and then go to the 'La petite boulangerie' bakery in the France themed area!!!
They have the very best butter pretzels I have ever tried and I grew up in Germany and have eaten a lot of pretzels in my life already 😂❤️
Before you decide to stay together with Laura, you need to run her through the Bretzel test. While it is easy to buy a good Bretzel in Germany most time of they day, this may be nearly impossible back in Seattle (or other places like California). Ask her to visit your home bringing the necessary ingredients to bake a Bretzel and bake you a couple. You can then grade her on the outcome. When I watched this video a feew weeks ago I mentioned to my wife that it is about time to get Brezen again. So today we baked some. Ok, they were maybe a 5 on your scale (we don't have the equipment or experience as a proper German baker) but that was far bettern than no Brezeln at all.
And btw, after about 5 years in Germany it is time for you to learn how to pronounce Brezel properly ;-)
I recently noticed that I as a native German say it like that too lol
Having a beer or two in the Biergarten is, and i mean it, one of the best things in life. I get goosebumps everytime…
3:29 enjoy the sun, i can already smell the upcoming snow...... honestly.....
The problem is...we havent enough Worker to make Sundays Open the Bakerys or its a long history in Germany. The Law in Gemany vorbiddet that the most of the Stores are open.
Wow, getting a Gänseblümchenkrone from a cute girl is one of the ultimate goals every guy should reach in his life! You can check that off your list ;)
You guys are such a cool couple. Greetings from Cologne, NRW.
I also love a good pretzel. For me it's got to have plenty of salt. The flower crown bit with your fraulein there was really sweet.
There's a at least 9/10 brezel jn Reutlingen at Bäckerei Berger. My tipp: get a couple of brezeln a couple of friends and go up the achalm and eat it up there with a nice view over the city 👍
BeckaBeck is also really good 👌
Whatever you do, avoid Reutlingen like the plague! Studied there. With an emphasis on ..DIED.
Not only should you try to get a Pfeffer-Breze, you should also find a bakery that still uses lard to make Brezen. Lard makes them crunchy and soft at the same time. And they don't get stale so fast. Could be difficult to find one though as most of them stopped using lard because of vegetarians and muslims...
Hey Nalf, have you ever tried an Anise Pretzle? In the northern part of Bavaria, known as Franconia, we have the tradition to bake Anise Pretzels between the 30th of november and "Aschermittwoch" which marks the beginning of fasting. It doesn't taste at all like a normal pretzel but to me it just brings back memories of when I was a little boy living in Upper Franconia. I hope you're doing well and and all the best from Berlin ✌
Man you just never fail to make me smile :)
I can't believe he rated the first pretzel 7.1. SpaceX fans will remember the spectacular test to failure of starship prototype sn 7.1 back in 2020.
I have the feeling that the Gänseblümchenkrone will turn into a ring of gold... on a finger. Best wishes.
1:11 Looking good my guy! Respect!
how often I went with the mindset "I can get everything anytime" in the USA and was disappointed it closed so early. Even in the bigger cities like chicago, some food outlets closed at 3 or 4 pm.
You need to try the butter pretzel from Krimmers Backstub in untermünkheim they are just amazing!
Watching his unshaven beard and his flower crown, the baby goat master reminds me a little bit about Jesus with his thorn crown...
Buy the Brezel early in the morning at 5 from your baker of choice instead of late in the day. Cause even if you get one at that time it probably ain't that good no mo'. Hopefully it will still be warm and that makes all the difference.
Well. On your quest to find the best Bretzel, you have to try out the small Bretzelstore in the main railwaystation in the City of Bielefeld. Yes the city doesn't exist, but on your quest to acquire the best possible Bretzel, such a small hindrance can't "derail" you! Or can it?
I always felt that butter pretzels are speciality in southern germany, when I want a butter pretzel I have to buy a naked one and put the butter on myself. :D
love your videos! thanks.
Pretzels with chives are the best
Greetings from frankfurt
Lovely - everything of it!
Consider visiting Lake Constance and Mainau during spring if you want to catch even more vibey vibes! Trust me 💯
We have a small bakery next to Stuttgart in kornwestheim and I drive there from Stuttgart because their Brezeln are so damn good. It's called Danemann
I see you after your football career opening a bakery in your hometown baking the best Prezels in the world!
But remember, only baked with love it tastes good!
Ever thought about checking out the bakeries' opening hours on weekends?
They even put in on their doors.
Weitnau. Die Bäckerei Frommknecht. Wenn es Dich mal ins Allgäu verschlägt (und Ihr zufällig gegen Kempten spielt) - macht einen Abstecher zum Hauchenberg. Die Aussicht ist hervorragend. Und die Brezen schmecken dort oben gleich doppelt so gut.
The Bavarians do a better job with the Butterbretzl because they cut the entire Bretzl open and butter the entire thing -- not just the thick bottom part of the Bretzl.
Sweet ducks at the beginning.
I can't believe I've just watched the whole thing... 😑
Enjoy the spring vibes 😊
Bakeries within supermarkets are usually open longer in general
The thumbnails never disappoint ;-)
that mysterious woman though has a 'fränggisch' accent, hasn't she? :P
For your rating... Grab a butterbrezel from Bakery Trunk in Obersulm (20min drive from SHA), say you want it still a bit warm not cold... 10/10 :-)
For crying out loud - buy frozen Brezen, buy butter, bake your Brezen, cut them open and butter them! Problem solved!
NALF, you are the pretzel-professor. :-)))
You should try a pretzel with Nutella 💚💚
Thx for the short time u take us away the Dark days we had.
You should check out Bäckerei Frank in Stuttgart. They did claim to have the best pretzel in Stuttgart back when I lived there.
Thanks for another wonderful video!
Try this one:
Dip your fresh Pretzel in melted butter and before eating, let it solidify for a minute.
