In the meanwhile, in Romania we eat salata de boeuf, a potato salad with meat, pickles , boiled vegetables and mayo, sarmale, a meat with rice mixture wrapped in cabbage leaves and slowly cooked in tomato sauce, cozonac, a pannetone type dessert filled with ground nuts, or poppy seeds.
that sounds amazing. Can you Please put down some links for these recipes or maybe the names of these dishes? I would love to try out them 🥰💖💖
😂😂😂😂😅😅😅
*All of Romania* works in England and eats *Indian food* every day when returning from construction.
Why does it sound Spanish.
@@yannamk3504 and you base this on what?
@@madhusmita9868 google: sarmale (cabbage rolls), cozonac (Romanian sweetbread), salata de boeuf.
Here in the hills of Kentucky, my family cook up country ham, eggs, homemade biscuits, and grits on Christmas morning!
And your famous fried chicken !
We normally have Christmas pudding with brandy sauce too.
I liked the German goose the best
It used to be that roast goose was the main dish in the UK too. The turkey being less fatty and larger, meant that it became a favourite. The whole point of a large turkey was that it would last the entire period of the holidays (Christmas and New Year) and make light work for the housewife who traditionally was the cook. The rich Christmas cake has the same purpose. A small portion of roughly two fingers sized, was more than enough and therefore lasted a long time and was something to give to visiting relations and other guests.
turkeys are depressing
That is true. Roast goose was the most popular Christmas dinner in England, until the years following the discovery of America. The Aztecs were one of the most known, and widest domesticators of turkeys at that time. When the Spanish ventured into the area, they soon brought the turkey back with them to Europe.
In England the turkey was seen as much more desirable than the goose. For one it was a new trend, but also that the turkey had more meat than the goose and grew larger. At this point geese were more often seen as for the poors.
Duck with red cabbage
I've got some Native Canadian friends who hunt regularly and I think they would enjoy the roast goose.
The age of wild goose decides the preparing method and it is hard to tell the age of the goose so it is better to put it in a Dutch oven and prepare it as a stew.
We have the usual turkey but also Norwegian meatballs and lefse. We usually make a batch of Rosettes along the cookies. My family's favorite are peanut butter kiss cookies. White cut out cookies to decorate, sugar cookies, and some gingerbread. I make fudge too. It's so much fun and I give some as gifts.
Sounds delicious! :)
Meatballs as in Medister?
It gives me a sweet warm feeling watching these videos,although none of them is smth i really like.❤ Merry Christmas to everyone, and especially a Happy New Year!
Happy holidays!
Goose 😋
This year I celebrate Christmas with MRE (meal ready to eat) because I'm a Ukrainian soldier and spending Christmas in a trench.
Good luck to you and your fellow soldiers. Keep the spirits up !
@@varoonnone7159 Thanks a lot!
@@Dimo4ka.
Hope you're fine !
Frohe Weihnachte and Selamat Natal (Merry Christmas) from Indonesia, where for the holiday we would serve the same dishes that we would serve for other festivals like Eid and Lunar New Year, from satay to lapis legit (layered cakes) 🎉
It was just Mum and I for Christmas this year, we had a large spiny lobster, salads, a heritage ham and x-large tiger prawns. I made a Laksa with the tiger prawns, it's something I do for myself every year.
Sounds delicious ! Just saw what a laksa was
Good luck getting goose in the US. When i lived in Chicago it was every year!
You can get them if you live in a portion of the country where they are raised, or if you are willing to pay a premium to a mail-order company that specializes in gourmet ingredients.
I have fond childhood memories of my Schwabish Grandmother starting an oven fire (more than once) with her Christmas goose. The pandemonium was hilarious to a little kid.
Merry Christmas from the Philippines, where the jolly season starts by September and ends close to February lol. Our food is influenced by our previous colonization from Spain & US as well as from trade with nearby countries. Holiday food includes roasted pig (lechon), tomato-based meat stew (menudo), rolled meatloaf (embutido), coconut rice cakes (bibingka and puto bumbong), Filipino sweet spaghetti, fried spring roll (lumpia), meat skewers (bbq), noodles (pancit)
Sounds like a fine eating experience. I'd be so impatient waiting for the lechon and lumpia.
Thank you, DW Food.
Thanks for watching! :)
Merry Christmas Europe and the World ❤
That restaurant that specializes in Peirogi is now on my bucket list 😂😂😂😂
*edited for grammar
Happy Christmas
Roast turkey/Crispy garlic Potatoes
Sounds great!
Ham, pasta, fried chicken
I legit thought fondue was just melted cheese in a pot and nothing else until I saw this
😅
Oh delicious Christmas!
What about Romania, Spain, Italy? We need to tend to mediterranian Cuisine, especially in this periodes of hard eating 😅😅😊
Panettone!
Spanish foods are my favorite 😍. Tapas, Paella 🥘👌😆🎉 . Merry Christmas 🎄 and happy new year 🎊 2024.
It's only a selection. Of course there are plenty of other yummy Christmas dishes from Europe, that we didn't mention.
I think that the selections were well rounded. I was honestly a little surprised France was not listed, I would also agree with ITaly being a good inclusion. I am unaware of Christmas traditions in Romania, and in Spain.
This was fun to see. What about a Christmas dessert tour?
Good idea. We might do that next year :) Would you be interested to learn more about food on German Christmas makets?
@@DWFood Sure. It will remind me of living in Germany for 2 years as a child.
sounds delicious...!!!
Thanks for sharing wonderful and delicious food❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Looks good
I had no idea swedes boil their ham 😬 in finland its baked in the oven for 8 hours
I'm so glad to see I'm not the only one who was horrified 😂
It's first boiled, then baked. For many days it felt like when I was a kid, but probably more like three hours boiling/five hours baking.
Happy Christmas day and Happy New Year...🌐🎁❤️
It's Pierogi not Pierogis! Pierogi is already plural! Singular is pieróg.
That's correct. Nevertheless, in English it's often written with an additional "s" at the end. 🤷♂
It's the American name for pierogi
goose, ham, and pudding looks good to me
Yummy 😋
Muy agradables
Red cabbage with turkey
We're trying to go vegan and up until i saw this video I thought i was doing a good job of not missing Christmas ham, but dang it, I could feel the scent from that pot through the screen! My favourite Christmas food is another Swedish classic, though - meatballs with allspice seasoning and beetroot salad. If I get to put it all on a piece of Vört bread too I'm smiling from ear to ear.
I'm from a hindu background and eat beef and pork
How come you're going the reverse way?
In the Netherlands, I really nice soup option would be snert, a hearty green pea soup, with Frisian rye bread topped with a thick layer of butter and smoked bacon slices
Que rico se ve todo
The German one and the Swiss one are the best
Danish is best
Muy rica
Ahhh fondue
Nyama Choma
Is it a typical Christmas dish? :)
yes it is@@DWFood
i'll go with swede, swiss and english, thank you.
I'll have the goose please! But I would also love to try piegori one day.
You can buy them all year round from your local Polish delicatssen
@@mypointofview1111 I've never seen a Polish delicatessen, even though a lot of Polish people live here in the UK.
German goose is the best, but it takes ages to prepare!
Are klöse (forgive me if I spelt it wrong) that easy to make? 75% raw grated potato and 25% mash, then simmered until done? There's an eastern German red cabbage recipe I've been after for ages. I doubt it involves apples but I think juniper berries are involved?
There are different types, some made with old bread, some with potatoes. The most common potato one is halb und halb (half and half cooked and raw potatoes)
And yes, put the mixture together, wait for the liquids to become clear (so that the potato starch has settled), drain the liquid, add some nutmeg, depending on how starchy your potatoes were knead some more starch in, put into the fridge for half an our, get it out, roll and cut into pieces, form and then let them simmer (not boil!) for half an hour in salt water
Over here it's in the Summer, so...
salads it is, I suppose...
Good selection! I'm fed up to watch things from Spain, France or Italy! 😅
Also the WORSE fondé I ever tried was in the French Alps. Gosh, no flavour and tasted like starch! 😅
Fondue is not a Christmas dish and it is for sure not the national dish in France...
I've never understood why you would melt cheese and then eat it while it's hot enough to give 1st degree burns.
What's your favorite Christmas dish? 🎄🍽
All looks wonderful but I'm pretty sure pierogi and fondue are consumed all year round...?
Yes, it's not only served for Christmas, that's true. But pierogi with mushrooms and sauerkraut are a typical variation for Christmas.
@@DWFood - sounds incredible :p
Our tirolian Brothers will get upset, because you Play tirolian folk music to the Swiss part of the Reportage. By the way, Swiss Fondue ist vastly eaten during the Advent season, but Most Swiss will Eat Something more versatile at the 24th or 25 th. while gathering within families!
In Poland the main dish isn't pierogi which accompanies the soup but fish, specifically karp. This is a beautiful, slightly fatty fish like salmon and is served with an array of accompaniments. Whoever made this video doesn't know much about the different Christmas dishes in Europe
In Italy we eat a lot.
Which one ? none, its 35 C in my country in christmas ...
where?
@@koreyb - Brazil, Australia....
@@danidejaneiro8378 oh, that would make Christmas really different. That would be summer.
@@koreyb - indeed! The only way to spend Christmas is on the beach 🏖
Danish Christmas pls .
Ofcourse the Scandinavians eat herrings and fish on Christmas like savages. I am surprised the French are not in the video talking about the carcass of Ortolan’s for X Mas😂
Whatever is local and natural is good. Good on the Scandinavians for eating wild game and fish. The lack of if hormones in their meat means they don't have terrible acne and body hair!!
I definitely need subtitles for the British part...
@@22poopoo Thanks for your comment but please refrain from comparison like this, it's not very respectful. So please, stick to our netiquette: www.dw.com/en/dw-netiquette-policy/a-5300954
@@DWFood OK. Although faced like slapped arse is an idiom in UK used to mean miserable. It's not considered offensive. It's used by parents to their children for instance.
Thanks for the clarification@@22poopoo!
puff pastry with chicken
It's a sin you forgot Romanian Christmas cuisine!
there was missing bacalhau from Portugal
Comen bacalao todo el año
It's only a selection. Is bacalhau traditionally served on Christmas? 🙂
@@DWFood yes, it is a staple of Portuguese food specially on Christmas
Everything looks so good when it finally came to the British food there You spoiled it for the video too bad... hello from Italy 🇮🇹
So you wouldn't give the Christmas pudding a try?
@@DWFood you think I will drop the panettone for Christmas pudding 😂
@@IvanValerioCortesi 😂
Christmas pudding isn't the nicest end to a meal. It's been heartening to know fewer people bought or made this concoction from the 14th century this year. Personally I prefer something lighter.
@@IvanValerioCortesi
Panettone isn't very nice
i roasted a goose once its very hard
Whoever cooked your goose must have overcooked it. We have goose most Christmases and I've never had a problem with it.
British xmas food? Fish and chips. British traditional food? Fish and chips. Special day food for british? Fish and chips 😂😂😂😂
😉😉So true!
my christmas meal tradition = KFC
not in every were
Nix Franconia, es seids Northern Bavaria
I had a stuffed nose, so everything tasted bland even my oysters 😭
But I thought Britain wasn’t a part of Europe?
not part of EU, doesn't change geography.
They LEFT OUT, the BEST GASTRONOMIES in EUROPE 😊, the MEDITERRANEAN COUNTRIES 😅 ,....
We're sorry, but didn't forget you!😃 It was only a selection. Of course, there are plenty of other tasty Christmas dishes in Eruope.
@@DWFood I don't FORGET , that you are DW , that's way you're NOT OBJECTIVE, when it comes to GASTRONOMY , and CHARITY starts al HOME 😉 , ....LOL.
Christmas!!!!!!!! You woke people
What's wrong with Xmas in your opinion? To be honest, it was simply shorter for the thumbnail 😉 And "X" stands more or less for "Christ", as our colleagues from Vox explain in this article: www.vox.com/2014/12/14/7374401/jesus-xmas-christmas
IT'S CHRISTmas not xmas

This sounds like AI nonsense.
It's Christmas not Xmas.
Yeah but still 😊
I've stopped using "xmas" too
Where do you think we celebrate xmas? 27th of December? Come on; it’s the same
Christmas snowflake
xmas used to annoy me, too, but i learned that it has been in use for hundreds of years and was in no way disrespectful.
Gosh the British one is the worst lol
