No, not universal. As a northern Chinese, the only thing on that list that my family ever has around is eggs. I actually don't know a single person growing up who has mustard or cheese around, like ever. Things containing those things are restaurant treats that you just don't eat or make at home. Pickles are a once in a while type of thing and pickled mustard greens and sauerkraut are probably way more popular, and even those things most people don't keep at home constantly. My region doesn't really do spicy foods so hot sauce was a non-presence at home, though they're probably easily available for those who do like it.

As someone who works full-time and lives in a household of two, I feel like transferring from the pot to container(s) just to have to wash both the pot and the container(s) is just more extra work than I'd like to do on a busy day and I try not to keep more food than two people can reasonably consume before it goes bad so space typically isn't an issue.

If you are interested: it is actually super simple. You just need a scoby to start with. Then you feed it tea and sugar
@marylynrotenАй бұрын
Thank you so much! ☺️❤️ It is indeed very easy, once you get your hands on a scoby. My recipe for kombucha is the following: Ingrediënts: - 0.8 l of spring water - tablespoon organic green/black tea - 40 g sugar - 0.2 l of starter + scoby Method: - Boil the 0.8 l of water on the stovetop on medium-high with 1 tbsp of tea leaves and 40 g of sugar for 10 minutes - pour the liquid in a bowl with a sieve on top to sieve out the tea leaves - let the liquid cool down completely - pour your cooled tea together with the starter liquid and the scoby in a big sterilised jar. - Let the jar ferment for 10 days - 3 weeks. Then you can harvest your kombucha, but make sure to reserve some liquid and you scoby to start a new kombucha (about 1/5 of the total volume) -> this is the first fermentation. You can also do a second fermentation if you add fruits to the harvested kombucha liquid (no scoby in here) and let it sit for another 2 days. This makes it less acidic and more flavourful :)

As a US ex-pat living in Germany for almost 30 years my Fridge has transformed into a mostly German/European Fridge. (Yes, my delicious and incomparable German bread lives the the Fridge.) As you've seen in this video the contents include a lot of foods and flavors not traditionally German. I love mustard, so I have several (too many probably) jars of them. I even have a jar of French's US mustard. Not because it is better than the others - it's just because. My biggest struggle to satisfy here is one of my last US taste yearnings - Pastrami. What I find here (always a chance find) just doesn't hit the spot. Europe has many wonderful cured meats. I recently learned that Pastrami may have originated in Romania. So, there still may be hope.

@@TheFonzieCommunityas a duel British/German living in the UK that "bland" food reputation for British and some other European countries comes from American soldiers during and post the second world war when rationing was very much in effect. Heck rationing was still in effect till 1954! Please remember that after this the UK opened its doors to the commonwealth and people from the Carribbean, Indian sub continent, Hong Kong etc started coming to the UK as they were BRITISH. Foods like Balti, tikka masala etc are British foods not found in India! We have multiple cities with china towns, most towns have Asian supermarkets. Since the 00's we've had "eastern Europe" stores and all supermarkets have international sections. Even old school typical British food like cottage/shepherds pie isn't bland if it's made right! It should contain worcestershire sauce and seasoning, if food is bland it's not been seasoned and that's a bad cook not bad food. Most people nowadays are more likely to be eating pasta than a British Sunday roast. Preferred "going out" food is Japanese, Korean, Italian, heck even nandos is an institution nowadays! Peri peri is far from bland! Yes we don't do mexican well, Europe in general doesn't, we're too far to have the good influence and a basic burrito or taco is pretty much all you will find but we have Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi cuisine that is EVERYWHERE here that barely exists in north America, so it's swings and roundabouts as far as I'm concerned. Most European countries that aren't well known for their food generally have at least one other country that influences food in their country, German with Turkish food, Dutch with Indonesia. You might have tried the stereotypes but today's European food is heavily influenced by its neighbours, former colonies and because it's the 21st century, everywhere else in the world!

Love your content and this episode was great.... Public service announcement.... Always store eggs in the carton they came in, in the back or bottom of the fridge... Never in the egg compartments or in the door.. 😂 😂... Take care.

I'm Canadian and three things I always have in my fridge are Lao Gan Ma, gouda cheese, and mustard pickles! 🇨🇦

A _lot_ of hot sauces are okay to leave out of the fridge. There's nothing in them that will go bad at room temperature. I never bother to put my Tabasco or El Yucateco in the fridge, for example, and I don't bother putting my Cholula in the fridge. There's too much acid and salt in most of them, and capsaicin itself is antimicrobial. The biggest exceptions are Sriracha and Crystal's. YMMV, proceed at your own risk, but when you have fridge space at a premium like I do and go through hot sauce fairly quickly, it's helpful.

As an Australian, I’m blown away by how many items (exact brand) I also have in my fridge. My 3 items are aged Cacciatore (salami), verjuice and a range of mustards.
@ChristinaanncatАй бұрын
Same! I was surprised to see so many of the same brands. Like the same brand of oyster sauce and BBQ sauce. Wasn’t expecting that from refrigerators across the world 😀

The people with tons of variations on the same item are definitely my people. Right now we have 5 kinds of hot sauce, 3 kinds of salsa, 5 kinds of mustard, 10 different cheeses, 7 different salad dressings, olives, a variety of fermented foods (plain yogurt, kimchi, pickles, and sauerkraut), eggs, bacon, hummus, and veggies that are in season from a local farm stand. The produce changes but we always have the wide array of condiments, yogurt, pickles, eggs, cheese, and leftovers.

I am suuuuuuuuper serious about cleaning out my fridge, so the oldest item in my fridge is a container of cream cheese I bought ~2.5 weeks ago that doesn't expire until 5ish weeks from now, on my birthday! though, to be fair, I went on a long trip this summer and threw away a bunch of things beforehand. Currently, in my fridge I have very little: aside from the cream cheese, I have some kimchi, a lemon, some Kerrygold butter, feta with Mediterranean herbs, yogurt, a ribeye steak, gluten free cookie dough, and some shredded cheese, and some undereye patches. In my freezer I have some frozen shrimp, frozen acai, and cookie ice cream sandwiches. I am in desperate need of getting some more produce!!

Got to eat seasonally to keep healthy. has he tried watermelon with a sprinkle of salt? it makes it almost sweet and sour.
@dollparts466Ай бұрын
@@rayrayravenclaw4385 no he enjoys it plain :-) tbh i'm not a huge fan of watermelons i prefer melons!
@nozee77Ай бұрын
I wish we had decent watermelons in central Europe, most are either mushy or watery/tasteless. 🙈 Cheers to your dad! Glad he gets to enjoy wonderful fresh watermelons every day. They are my favourite as well. 🍉💚

Eggs, orange juice, sour cream , and every condiment that is available in the United States. Also the cheese drawer is always full. We love cheese, and hit all the farmer's markets for extra special cheese. Loved this episode, will be hitting up markets to find some very popular ingredients we've never tried. Really love your channel, keep doing what you do!

such a cool episode that i have to comment. because of this channel something i now always need to have inside my fridge is those homemade garlic pickles that turn blue. as a portuguese i laughed when i saw the south african fridge. also have chouriço in my fridge. got soy chouriço that even a vegetarian can enjoy. it's still portuguese chouriço but veggie friendly. :D also tell the young lady who's keeping the nail polish in the fridge that once outside the bottle, like when you're painting your nails, a bit of cold air (a fan for instance) can help traditional nail polish dry faster. that's the trick i used when i wore nail polish to get it to dry faster when the weather was very hot. so she should try with just one nail polish inside the fridge and get the others out. if it dries at least she saves the others from drying. speaking of a non edible (not edible anymore) that it's still in my fridge it is a small jar of homemade pepper oil my mum used in her cooking all the time. as i didn't know much about cooking when she passed away, i never used it but also never got rid of it because it was mum's secret ingredient. it's also the oldest item in my fridge cause it as been there since 2006 at least... also liked to see that there other people out there keeping a special old jar in their fridge because it's really special. don't feel weird anymore for keeping the oil. ;) also i support the comments that say "a pantry tour, please!" :D

I didn’t know Italians keep their eggs in the fridge - I thought you were like the rest of Europe. I love prosciutto and salami too.
