If you are a big Fan of potatos Germany is the place to eat, the Italiens even call us Germans potatos😅 , because we eat a lot of them in many variations
4:57 "Wiener Schnitzel" translates to "Viennese Schnitzel". It relates to the Austrian capital city of Vienna (in German: Wien, pronounced VEEN) where fried and battered thin cutlets of veal ("Schnitzel") became a popular local dish. Today, the name "Wiener Schnitzel" (Viennese Schnitzel) specifically means a schnitzel made of veal (instead of pork or poultry).
In my small southern German town of 30k there is only one fast food chain ‘restaurant’ a McD. Three Spanish restaurants, XX Italian, 2 Indian, 5 Asian (Vietnamese, Thai, etc.), 1 Nepalese, ...
@@TheAngrySpud If you try it: it has to be warm and you have to peel off the casing. Don't eat the casing! And try it with sweet mustard. As soon as it's cold it's not so delectable, that is why they serve it in a dish with hot water.
The international cuisine is good for the most part. Of cause, there is a huge gap between good and bad restaurants in general but the food is authentic and delicious in most cases. But it also depends on the area you are. The same goes for the regional cuisines of Germany. The west cooks different from the east, the north different from the south. If you'll find a restaurant selling Labskaus with Spätzle, run! Labskaus is a typical sailor's meal back in the day and popular in the northern part. You can also get Spätzle there, but these noodles are typical for the southern area. Germany cooking is hearty. Don't underestimate soups and stews. They are quite popular here but not well-known internationally by foreigners. Typical are pea or lentil soups. Wiener Schnitzel is a cutlet must be from veal and breaded. Other types like pork or chicken have to be named and declared. For example "Schnitzel Wiener Art" (Schnitzel Viennese style) means breaded but not veal. Most served with a slice of lemon. All other versions derived from it. Jägerschnitzel (Hunter's Schnitzel with Mushroom sauce; Rahmschnitzel with cream sauce; and several others). Don't get confused about GDR Jägerschnitzel, which is not a cutlet but a slice of sausage breaded and fried and is often served with pasta. It is a staple in East German cuisine as part of the Soviet history.
Nurnberger sausages are great, little spicy and very juicy. Four of them in a bread roll and you have a nice time... If you visit Germany try a Döner Kebap, its turkish origin but invented by a turkish immigrant in Berlin. Its damn good! "Mit allem und scharf"
Wiener Schnitzel is actualy from Vienna, Austria. Wien is the german word for Vienna and it's made out of veil (only veil) and i will forever be thankfull to my austrian neighbours in the south for creating this wonderful food. No other variation of Schnitzel is better in my humble opinion 😊. Cheers from southern bavaria 😁🍻
But because veal is expensive in Germany it is replaced with pork or chicken. In such a case (because the name "Wiener Schnitzel" is protected and must be made with veal by law in Germany) to identify the "cheap" alternatives they are sold under the name "Schnitzel Wiener Art" (Schnitzel in the Style of a Wiener Schnitzel).
In Germany, it's all about the region in which your are, and secondly the season. Weißwürscht don't get their color from fat, but from the minced veal. And yes, you're welcome!! An,d their are good streetfood videos you might react to.
The advantage is ineradicable, we Germans always eat pork knuckle with sauerkraut and dumplings. And all Americans wear cowboy hats and carry revolvers.
for me mushrooms on a Wiener schnitzel is a crime if u want mushrooms sauce then with natural schnitzel without breading a must for Wiener schnitzel is a slice of lemon btw Wiener Schnitzel is always veal a la Wiener Art or like Wiener Art is pork
Thüringer Bratwurst is the first item on the list, so I have nothing to add 😄 Thüringen, or Thuringia, is my home state. It's known as the "Green Heart of Germany" because it's right in the center and heavily forested. A lot of German art, culture, science and philosophy originated in Thuringia, but absolutely nothing elicits the same sense of national pride in the common Thuringian as the Thüringer Bratwurst. As soon as the temperatures climb above freezing, many Thuringians will take out their charcoal barbecues and ceremoniously ring in Bratwurst Season. It's almost like a religion to some. The Thüringer Bratwurst is even in the running to become officially recognized as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. Not trying it when you have the chance means you're missing out big time!
16:00 A typical American statement when you tell a European that there is no "Spanish" country in Europe 😂😂😂😂. Even if you reduce it to just the language, it is so wrong. As if all English-speaking countries have the same cuisine.
its ParmeSan not ParmeJan. Germany has lots of different cheeses from all over europe. Dutch cheeses like Gouda (pronounched "Hrowda" with the ow like in cow) to northern german "Hirtenkäse" wich is a cowmilk cheese similar to Feta, proper Feta, french and italian cheeses etc.
@@TheAngrySpud depends on taste. generally there are great cheeses from both sides. Both in germany and the netherlands you will find cheeses to suit many different tastes. French, Italian, Swiss and Greek cheeses are also great.
Berliners think they have the best curry sausage - I think that's a rumor. You can find great curry sausage in almost every city and I make it myself with my own mixture of spices.
Wait what? There are no Spanish countries "around" Germany, that can make authentic Spanish food? Would you kindly reference a map of Europe and check where Spain is? Not that far from Germany! What North-Americans usually mean is that there isn't really Mexican food in Germany, and that is right, because .... again a look on a map of the world ... Mexico is quite far away, not many Mexicans in Germany. I am a bit sad, that almost all food presented here is mostly Bavarian. But Germany has so much more to offer in all of it's regions, and also not everything is meat based. I am a bit sad that none of that is represented here.

That's great to know because it is definitely my favorite food, hence my YT name!
Keep in mind, everything he presents is southern german, mostly bavarian. the mid-west has different cuisine and the north is very different, too.
right, I barely eat those foods or drinks
Tap water is the strictest controlled beverage in Germany. (No idea if this still was an english sentence)
That actually is music to my ears!

Mustard in Europe/Germany taste totally diverent then American one the same goes for Mayonaise.

All of those places tucked away in a small town?? That's awesome. Glad to know there's good international food!
So, if you are a fish person ... travel to the north of germany, Hamburg, Bremen, Lübeck, Rostock ... those are the places you want to be.
I must do this!! Thank you
He tells the Most about south german Food. Which is Great, but Theres a lot more in the Rest of germany, for example in the north Fish,
I'll have to watch more videos to see if they talk about the different foods provided by the rest of Germany!
You gotta try the white sausage with sweet mustard, just great.
I'm up for trying it, I just don't think I've ever seen it before!

A lot of spanish people live in Germany, there are a few very good Restaurants, definitely a lack of good mexican food.😢
Really?? I did not know that!
@@TheAngrySpud Spain isn't very far away. Just one country between spain and germany 😊

what i can recommand is "krautschupfnudeln". that's ofc sauerkraut, bacon and thick noodles, their getting roasted in a pan and are delicious.
Schupfnudeln(schwäbisch) bestehen aus gekochten und gepressten Kartoffeln neben anderen Zutaten

Oh the asparagus season has just ended, but the strawberries are delicious again. I like your comments!
We love asparagus and strawberries in this family!
Thanks!

LOL
Haferflocken!
Parmesan is more used for cocking
Haferflocken!!!!!
for me mushrooms on a Wiener schnitzel is a crime
if u want mushrooms sauce then with natural schnitzel without breading
a must for Wiener schnitzel is a slice of lemon
btw Wiener Schnitzel is always veal
a la Wiener Art or like Wiener Art is pork
This made me laugh, lol thanks!
Never put the souce on the Schnitzel. Always next to it or over the Side Dish (French fries, etc).

Aber nur mit Thüringer Majoran! Viel im Brät!
I will try this in my life time!

we love gouda in germany ^^
Because the USA is a HotDog-loving-nation the consumption of Sauerkraut per person is higher in the US than in Germany.
american hot dogs have kraut on it?
its ParmeSan not ParmeJan.
Germany has lots of different cheeses from all over europe. Dutch cheeses like Gouda (pronounched "Hrowda" with the ow like in cow) to northern german "Hirtenkäse" wich is a cowmilk cheese similar to Feta, proper Feta, french and italian cheeses etc.
Which is 'better' German cheese or Dutch cheese? Looking for a subjective viewpoint on this...
@@TheAngrySpud depends on taste. generally there are great cheeses from both sides.
Both in germany and the netherlands you will find cheeses to suit many different tastes.
French, Italian, Swiss and Greek cheeses are also great.

You are correct! The Mexican food vs Spaniard food, thanks for pointing that out!
