Just a quick tip. When you want to squeeze the water from your shredded potatoes, put down an old piece of cotton, like an old tea towel and line that with paper kitchen towels, then put the potatoes onto the middle, lift the corners of the cloth and as Chloe suggested place the bundle in a sieve or colander, before attempting to squeeze and twist the bundle to remove the excess water. If you want, you can then open the bundle and scatter a small amount of flour through the mixture before remaking the bundle and squeezing out even more liquid. Then proceed as with the method in your recipe. In the recipe for the Dutch Baby pancakes I would suggest using self raising flour and make the batter a little thicker. Have the fruit ready to go into the pancake before putting it into the oven and while there’s still a little fluidity in the batter add the fruit and a light sprinkle of the sugar, before returning it to the oven. If you time this right some of the fruit will sink into the batter at least partially. You can also use a blow-torch or a grill (Salamander) melt some of the final scatter of sugar on the finished dish (similar to a crème brûlée).

[@heidicook2395]

I lobe Dutch pancakes! I use a pie pan, melt the butter in the pie and pour the batter directly in the pan by pulling the oven rack out. I've only had them serbed with a drizzle of fresh lemon juice, butter, and confectioners/powdered sugar. I first had them at Perkins, a restaurant here in the USA.

The reason the cabbage smells like mustard is because they are part of the same plant family (Brassica)! There are a surprising amount of vegetables that we eat (kale, mustard, broccoli) all descended from mustard plants, it's really cool. This was a fun video, Barry, and always good to see Chloe!

[@drtns]

A clean tea towel is generally the item of choice for squeezing out all the water from the grated potato when making potato pancakes. If you do them again give that a try and I think you'll agree it works better than the kitchen roll.

[@earthstar2493]

I use those 99 cent cotton bananas in my kitchen 😆

Latkes are a staple in my Jewish home, especially around Hanukkah. That said, I've always wanted to try Okonomiyaki! It always looks delicious.

[@Marriev]

Well, there is a story behind the German/Dutch 'confusion'. In the 16/17th century "Duitsch" (literally the Dutch word for 'German') meant 'Dutch' in a huge part of the current Netherlands because the word 'Nederlands' (Dutch) was introduced in the 16th century. Also, the Netherlands in their current 'political/geographical' form didn't exist at that moment... so 'Duitsch' was more common than 'Nederlands/Dutch' and therefore there will always be confusion in the English speaking countries if a thing is really from the Netherlands or from Germany. But lovely to see Chloe again. And it still hasn't changed that she isn't too fond of kneading things :)

[@thesteelrodent1796]

well, a lot of Americans don't understand that Dutch and Danish are two different things because they don't know where either country is, and of course it doesn't help that there are some similarities between our languages

[@Tala_Masca]

The Dutch ones are called Poffertjes Barry. Mini pancakes, a little thick and fluffy. Nice video again! Good to see Chloë again! Phoebe is to teenager to be in your videos?

Latkes are an Ashkenazi Jewish dish, traditionally served at Chanukah time, along with other fried foods both savory and sweet. They are served with sour cream and/or apple sauce, as you said. Total hash brown vibes! They are symbolic of gold coins, as a wish for good fortune in the coming year.

[@nikkimatthys1995]

Oh wow I knew they had a Jewish background but I honestly didn’t think it was from one particular Jewish community I just thought it was a Jewish food as a whole like the phrase says you learn something new everyday

[@YaaLFH]

Latkes are a variation on Polish placki ziemniaczane, taken abroad by Jewish people.

[@Koooo4]

​@@YaaLFH No. Versions of latkes goes back to at least the middle ages. The version made with potatoes did become the most common because potatoes became popular in eastern europe. But they are in no way a "variation on" placki ziemniaczane..

You should redo the Japanese Pancakes but with the actual Kewpie Mayo and Okonomi Sauce. It tastes amazing!

[@SilvaraDragontear]

On the whole potatopancakes, I think atleast half of europe have their own versions of it. Sweden got so hooked on potatoes that we have two versions. Råraka & raggmunk, råraka is always made with raw shredded potatoes while raggmunk can be done with potatoflour or shredded cooked potatoes if I remember correctly. Sweden also have something similare to the dutch baby, we just call it thickpancake we also have a version of it were we put ham into the batter. We also have something called saffranspannkaka/saffronpancake or gotlandspannkaka/gotlandspancake that I highly recommend trying. So good.

Latkes are an Ashkenazi Jewish creation. They are usually served on the High Holidays and/or Passover and made with Matzoh Meal. You can serve with Apple Sauce or Sour Cream, or both.

[@colinspeirs]

Yup. If only there was some tool in our pocket to easily check 😂

[@YaaLFH]

No, they're not. They're Polish. Jewish people just took them abroad and started eating with applesauce in USA.

[@colinspeirs]

@@YaaLFH No, they are, in fact, Ashkenazi Jewish. My folks were from Ukraine and Lithuania. Never went to the states, and yet we had Latkes Before potatoes were populat they were made with kasha, cooked in schmaltz Where did the Ashkenazi get it? From Italian Jews, who used cheese as a basis The Poles may have adapted it, with lard, for placki ziemniaczane, but that's on them

[@YaaLFH]

@@colinspeirs No, they are, in fact, Polish. Historically large areas that are now Lithuania and Ukraine used to be Poland and that's where the Jews lived.

Yes !! Please do make the Dutch ones. Poffertije - which i think literally translates as little pancake puffs. My Dutch friends taught me some Dutch and the tije (said te-yeah) is added to words to make them "a cute small version" which is exactly what those are cute small puffed up pancakes often served drenched (and i mean drenched - think snowdrift here!!) in icing sugar. I was lucky enough to try them in Amsterdam and they are amazing

I make potato pancakes for my German inspired Christmas dinner every year..we use a cheesecloth to strain the liquid out, it's sooo helpful! My sister and I found the food processor is easier than hand grating too lol😅 but they're soooo good 🤤

[@ghostmarine3608]

That dutch pancake is great with homemade jam made from a mix of strawberries and blueberries and then add some icecream "preferable vanilla due to the homemade jam adding an layer of flavour to it " you need to put the jam on the icecream when the pancake is hot so the pancake can melt the icecream with the jam ontop of it and it creates this amazing topping i swear !

[@goatmasterflash]

You made the right choice grating the potatoes for the latkes, the texture really suffers if you blitz them in a food processor. For the dutch baby, you could squeeze a lemon over it for extra yumminess.

[@YaaLFH]

Wrong choice, they're not hash browns or rösti.

[@goatmasterflash]

@@YaaLFH I'm sorry, let me correct that. "[It is my opinion that] you made the right choice grating the potatoes for the latkes. [In my 45 years of making and eating latkes, I think that] the texture really suffers if you blitz them in a food processor." Regardless of whether or not the potatoes are grated, latkes are distinct from hash browns or rösti because they're bound with egg and crumb/flour.

Okonomiyaki is traditionally made with napa cabbage, and will have bonito flakes shaved on top with a savory/sweet sauce. We make them fairly often in my home, even though we arent Japanese. My personal favorite is with tako (octopus!) But the wife doesnt like trying to cook it, lol

[@wyomingborn1982]

I love latkes! I have them with applesauce for a sweet treat. For savory latkes; I’ll mix in some savory seasoning (garlic, onion, paprika) and eat with sour cream. My favorite filling for a Dutch Baby is sliced bananas with warm homemade strawberry syrup.

The latkes are an Eastern European Jewish food. I myself am Jewish and make them every year for Hanukkah. To be considered proper Latkes they MUST have the potatoes and onions grated by hand. Also in the recipe I have never seen breadcrumbs in the ingredients list, always flour.

[@AntonGully]

Hash browns, an omelette and a big Yorkshire pudding. Outstanding.

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

[@anthonydejongh7053]

Hya the both of you! The Dutch pancakes word you're looking for is "poffertjes". Fun fact: the pan you need for them poffertjes can also be used to make Japanese takoyaki, so maybe one day you can make both. Thanks for this delicious video!!

[@KingHenryVR4]

Only time I ever heard of a Dutch Baby was in the Bobs Burgers episode "Christmas in the Car" where the family ends up at a diner and the mom Linda orders one off the menu.

[@mavadelo]

As a Dutchman I can confirm that I never heard of a "Dutch Baby" when it comes to pancakes. a proper Dutch pancake is simple. 2 large eggs, 250 grams of flower, half a liter of milk. Whisk together till a smooth runny batter. You heat the pan and pour enough batter to cover the bottom of your pan. flip when the top is dry. That amount of batter you made I would make about 5 or 6 pancakes with. A Dutch pancake resembles a French crepe (slightly thicker though) than an American one. As someone else mentioned already... "baby pancakes" in the Netherlands are called poffertjes and have the diameter of about a snookerball. With your thumbnail you might expect an uptick in Dutch viewers.

I like that everything seems to be served with condensed milk.

[@gerardacronin334]

Good job! I recently learnt how to make Okonomiyaki during a trip to Japan and now it is a regular feature in my repertoire. It was developed after WWII when good food was limited in Japan, as a way to use a variety of little scraps to make a nutritious meal. It’s great for using up flavourful odds and ends from the fridge. I recommend buying kewpie mayonnaise if it’s available in your area, and also bonito (tuna) flakes for garnish. They are so delicate that they crinkle and “dance” on top of the hot pancake. Delicious!

The pancakes you couldn't think of are poffertjes. They do require a special cast iron pan with dimples. The batter is similar to a crêpe, although slightly thicker (buttermilk consistency) and it has some baking powder. They're traditionally cooked in vegetable oil, flipped using a fork, and served with slices of salted butter and loads of icing sugar.

[@Hudson316]

I’ve been craving Latkes ever since trying them as a kid at a cultural festival thing, so I might need to try that recipe. The okonomiyaki pancake also can be done completely vegetarian, there’s a sushi place outside my work that does them, basically the same idea as the one from the video but without the pork and adding in some other veggies (I think peas and shredded carrot?) and the main selling point is the sauce, the one in the video would have probably been elevated even higher if Japanese mayo was used (Kewpie mayo is crazy good and based on how I keep using it on everything it might be addictive)

[@Katsurisan]

In finland we have similar pancake (pannukakku) as the last one but instead of putting butter on pan, we add it straight to patter

Potato pancakes are a favorite in my extended family. My mom used to make them as a teen when she had to prepare dinner when my grandmother was working. All by hand for 5 people. Then we found frozen potato pancakes and they are actually really good. Home made once are in our opinion only slightly better. The apple sauce is always homemade with apples from our orchard.

There's a Japanese grocery store in Seattle, and I've not only had the good fortune of finding pre-made Okonomiyaki in their kind of deli section, but I've also found Okonomiyaki batter mix and the sauce. Also, the mayo that they would use is one called Kewpie mayo, which is a much richer mayo than the more European variety. Beyond that, though, I grew up having Dutch Babies for special occasions with my family, and quite often we would actually do them with powdered sugar and orange juice, and that combination of the very eggy batter with the orange juice really just works very well.
