Nice video! Fun fact : the pink and blue hagelslag or sprinkels are called blue or pink ‘muizen’,which means ‘Mice’ and they are’nt Made out of chocolate but they actually taste like anice and traditional we eat them when a baby is Born on ‘beschuit’ in Englisch I believe its ‘rusk’ ,with a bit of butter , Pretty tasty! ‘Muizen’ also comes in powder form and that is what we call: ‘gestampte muizen’ which means :’stamped Mice’ if you like the taste of anice, you should sure try it with a little bit butter on Bread ! Sorry if my Englisch sucks! Love from Amsterdam. Edit: Trying to fix grammar!
Here in Belgium, we have the ‘hagelslag’ too, but we often call them ‘mice droppings’ because you know ... They’re usually only pure, milk or white chocolate, so no anice taste here. We also eat them mostlly for breakfast or as a dressing on cakes and other desserts.
Have you tried the Indonesian kitchen? Indonesia was an old colony of the Netherlands so it’s been integrated in the Dutch kitchen. You have to try the hagelslag with about 70% cacao in it. Typically Dutch is putting Speculaas or Peperkoek on bread with butter. The pink and blue hagelslag is called Muisjes (mice). These are anise seeds covered in a sugar coating. Get your Rookworst at the Hema; one of the best. Stamppot is best if it’s homemade.
To be precise we don't use a toaster for our bread, only when the bread is a bit old. And I would never recommend boerenkool pre-made by the Albert Heijn. The best boerenkool is self made with fresh boerenkool and a good rookworst (not AH!) or a verse worst or at a restaurant. Eet smakelijk!
Regarding the boerenkool. buy it fresh or already sliced. Put it in the freezer for at least a night to sweeten it. Then cook and mix with cooked potatoes. I like a bit more vegetables than potatoes. Throw in some fried bacon cubes. Serve with sausage. (rookworst). The AH huismerk is less salty than the Unox. Serve with pickled onions, "zilveruitjes", not "Amsterdamse uitjes". Also serve with pickled gherkins. I love curry ketchup with it. According to a recipe in the Guardian a few years ago Kale goes well with stir fried shrimps. Not yet tried that. There are various variations of Kale, black cale or palm kale. Taste is the same. Easy to grow your self if you have a bit of room in a smal patio or garden.
That lunch, I do not recognize as typical Dutch Lunch. A Typical Dutch work lunch would be a lunch box with sandwiches of ham, cheese or maybe peanut butter. That is it. Drink coffee, tea or milk with it. Not all sprinkles are considered hagelslag. That would confuse us. Especially "muisjes" or vlokken are certainly not hagelslag. Do you know the difference between speculaas and speculoos (paste)? The dinner, I think you can make it a lot healthier if you make most yourself from scratch. Amount of potatoes vs vegetables varies per region or personal taste.
Certainly in my old office it was a variety of food - mostly from AH! Maybe we were spoiled a little bit :) Oh and yes, milk was a favorite of my Dutch colleagues for lunch which I didn't quite understand - we usually drink milk at night or with cereal!
@@TheTravellingFoxes Office Lunch culture and certainly in Amsterdam is more international and does not equal to an average Dutch lunch. Amsterdam is not the Netherlands in many ways, but I trust you knew that already.
Haha yaaayyy that's what's up! Love it, Tash! ❤ You're so 'ingeburgerd' already 😄 (now say that 10 times fast 🤣) Typically we actually don't toast bread but prefer to eat our bread fresh, which I remember ppl always thought was weird when I would be abroad and not toast my bread lol! Maybe next time you can introduce ppl to POFFERTJESSSSS 😋 I'm so happy for me there are places that make vegan ones now, as I love me some poffertjes!! And I also love to veganize my typical Dutch simple dinner of boiled potatoes, (vegan) burger and spinach a la crème (from Alpro cream) 😍 Hope after the lockdown we can grab a Dutch meal together 🤗🇳🇱
Ohhh my I love poffertjes! One of the reasons why I fell in love with the Netherlands 😂 the sweets here are so good! It's hard to find during summer though so when it's winter I always look forward to that 🤭 making it vegan sounds delightful! I find some (like with sausages etc) to be super unhealthy but always good to find healthier alternatives! And yes for sure when it's safer - I would love to meet your little one 😍
For breakfast from Amsterdam and other European countries, I remember the crispy pastries, it's like a pop tart. I have some of them right now, they're made in Netherlands. And nutella which I think Europeans go crazy about.
Hi there! Kamusta from Hilversum! just came across your channel.. nice content! I (was) also an NL based Pinoy expat many years ago, now pretty much stucked here :) .. in fairness its a good place to be stucked at (although no place like Pinas).
@@TheTravellingFoxes nah, weve been here so long, but I don’t think we’ll ever be able to consider ourselves as local, and yeah, I can speak some Flintstone like level of Dutch :)
Ok it is hard to pronounce some words. Your pink and blue hail is actually anise based.eaten on beschuitjes or biscottes. There is fruit hail also. Your stamppot van be learned by getting a book called het Amsterdams kookboek by Wannee. It will give you the ideas for sauerkraut ( zuurkool), hutspot ( carrot stew). And then go to the Dutch indonesian cuisine and you will get lots of nice food ideas.
Wannee is the cook book of the former old Dutch secondary school for girls "de huishoudschool" with special domestic skills like sowing, cooking, health care. I got one from my mother in law.
@@Roel_Scoot that huishoudschool was the elite school of all huishoudschool in the Netherlands. I had to do one year of that. To get admission for becoming a dietician. You had to have a highschool graduation for that. The school educatief the cooks for our royal family. Besides that I still got a 6 for ironing. I was not so fond of that part of the curriculum. But cooking I was taught. And still can apply it 50 years later. The oliebollen recipe is still the best .
@@Roel_Scoot I had that and 4 years of Gymnasium. I became a music librarian instead,but enjoyed my year of intern at het Zandpad . It prepared me for catering big dinners in Washington DC.And made me capable to learn to cook so many cuisines
She's eating the stampot boerenkool wrong. You're supposed to cut the sausage in pieces, so you can have a piece with each bite! Also, eating it with a giant spoon from a bowl?! Just use your fork! :D
In the past, only stadse kakkers would use a fork. Entire peasant Netherlands would just use their spoon for dinner. And all the dinner courses (soup, main, vla/yoghurt), would be served in the same bord. Lekker man!
The Dutch are the coolest people in Europe, and their food is SO GOOD, The cheese, and the Herring is just insane how good it is, Dutch Beer is the best in the world, they are the masters of beer and cheese for sure.
Please don't ever, ever, EVER eat pre fabricated stamppot from a supermarket! Its just gross! Ask the old lady next door to make it for you, she'll be more than willing to let you taste REAL stamppot.
@@TheTravellingFoxes I would gladly cook a proper dutch stamppot for you, if it wasn't that you live that far from my town and I don't have a car either ;-) But I'm sure there are plenty dutch people that would help you out on this.
I have no idea how you could enjoy Chocolate sprinkles on Bread that much for Breakfast, for me it is literally the worst Breakfast in the world, that i have seen anyway.
You will not have better food anywhere in Europe, French, Italian, all that is WAY over rated, way too expensive. and its no diffrent than French or Italian food in the U.S. Its all tourist hype, to understand Dutch food and exellent it truly is you gotta go to the Netherlands, Ive been three times and going again this year.
Now when I see it live, I have to say our culture is terrible concerning food and AH sells good looking food without any taste. Only Turkish, Morrocan, Surinam and very much Indonesian stores help us to remind what good tasting food is like. Sorry for your integration, you are terrific and really nice, but please our food is terrible. we have bread that can be used as a sponge to wash your car because of the fluffiness and meat that is sold as rumpsteak that can be used to change the soles of your shoes. Way overprized and with zero nutrition in it. The only good thing we have is good cheese. But then again only in cheese stores, not the plastic cheese sold in the supermarkets. I wish we would be more critical like Italians, French, German or Flemisch people. They are critical and don´t put up with food that is without taste or treated with water to let you pay for more weight without taste. I am born in the wrong country I guess....
Dutchies? Hmmmm...not sure if that's even cute? But ok, let you get away with that one. We don't just eat hagelslag for breakfast. Often it's one slice of (white) bread with something sweet like jam, hagelslag or peanut butter (Calve, which is just the best) and one (Wholemeal) with savoury, which can be anything from cheese to cold meat or a meat spread. Ontbijtkoek is not the same as rye bread. That's called rogge brood. Lunch like that is not your average persons lunch. We just bring home made sandwiches or salads most of the time. And I'm really thinking you might not have cooked/steamed the Boerenkool before mixing it in with the mash. It looked raw. Very healthy I'm sure but not tasty. Now if you'd replace that with home made mash and raw sliced Endive plus bits of bacon fried and pot together .. you'll have the best meal ever. And if you can show me someone who will eat Dutch Erwtensoep (pea soup) and stampot in one meal, I'll eat my hat!🤣. But your are on the ball with stroopwafels! The best. I'm so happy they sell them now in the UK as I would miss them so much. 😁
Thanks for your comment! The Boerenkool indeed felt raw, but I just heated it up! I would much prefer to try a homecooked one, but maybe next time :) I thought Dutchies was a thing here, maybe I'm wrong 😂
so much overacting , not even natural. no one, i mean no one eat dutch food and than make that face like they enjoy it soooo much, because dutch food is disgusting

Ik toast zelf niet veel maar eet ook geen kaas en hagelslag op brood.
Veel die t wel doen. En lekker doen zouk zeggen

Egg- ei
Ice cream- ijsje
Pancakes- pannenkoeken

If hagelslag is too sweet, then only put a handful or half of it on the bread. Moderation is key lol

Try making stampot hutspot( its wortel met ui en spek reepjes) so much better than boerenkol lol
I figured! Hehe thanks for feedback!
That depends on taste! I prefer boerenkool
stroop is written with an oo and thus pronounced like the o in go or slow, not like the oe as in shoe

Please don't toast your bread when you put hagelslag on it!
Special word every dutch knows: prakken, and derivatives: prakje, koude en warme prak.

AH is expensive, go to Lidl or maybe Jumbo, way better..
And for bread go to a real bakershop, like in Zwolle, de Stadsbakker..
