American Girls React to The BEST German Food - What to Eat in Germany!

[@alex2000lin.]

Around 25 different beer styles are brewed in Germany, the home of the German Beer Purity Law. Within these beer styles, there are between 5,000 and 6,000 different types of beer in Germany. The variety is overwhelming!

[@helmutkoohl8652]

we got over 1000 breweries, so maybe you have to afford more trademarks. i know about "schlösser" from düsseldorf, they produce over 100 different beers for different customers.

[@metalmusicdiscord]

Mark Wolter is such a sympathetic guy! And the info he provides is pretty much always on point. All of his videos are very recommendable imo. If you're a fan of "sweet" wine, try "Eiswein" (ice wine). The name stems from the fact that the grapes the wine is made of aren't harvested before they are completely frozen. That means you need to keep them on the vine stock way longer which increases the risk of losing part of the harvest (rot, animals eating the grapes and so on) and generally has a lower yield because not only is it a high risk for the vintner but because you need to press the grapes while they are still frozen, which retains most of the water and only the sugary must comes out. Makes it really expensive also but it tastes amazing! They are becoming really rare though since the winters are getting milder here. The most wine-rich region in Germany btw. is the Federal State of "Rheinland-Pfalz" (Rheineland-Palatinate), which produces around 60% of all German wines. To the southeast of the State you'll find the "Deutsche Weinstraße" (German Wine Route), which, because of its climatically favoured position, gives the region an advantage in terms of wine-making. It's generally a bit warmer there and there's an above average amount of sunshine hours which also allows for exotic plants to grow there, like figs, lemons, kiwi, cypresses but most famously: almonds. Their pink blossoms provide a very pretty sight during spring.

[@teckyify]

Pardon, sweet wine? 😂 This is world class white wine, called Riesling. It has a characteristic acid and is really good, you have to taste it at a vineyard restaurant. You'll like it, especially with a complementary dish. He also said "Wasser mit Gas" which is actually English and not German 😂 You say "Wasser mit Kohlensäure" and not "gas". Mark got probably used to using it wrong and people can guess what he means 😂

[@baramuth71]

We have around 45,000 bakeries in Germany. And we have around 3000 different types of bread here with us. German bread is a Unesco World Heritage Site. The madness goes even further, in Germany there are between 5000 - 6000 types of beer, all brewed according to the German Purity Law from 1516, which states that only barley, hops, malt and water may be used for brewing without the use of chemical additives. There is a rule for wine: white wine goes with white meat and fish, red wine goes with dark meat. Döner kebab is an absolute must here in Germany, it's so delicious. But it could happen to you that once you're here, you won't want to leave.

[@lorenzsabbaer7725]

and some times yeast, for beer

[@thepurplesmurf]

What do you mean with "it looks like so much bone, I like more meat" with the pork knuckle? A grilled crispy pork knuckle is usually about 2.5 pounds of which 1.6 pounds is meat the rest is bone and that amazing super crispy skin. A large pork knuckle has about the size of a really large rotisserie chicken, which is usually enough meat for a 4-head family dinner. If you go out to have pork knuckle at a Biergarten or restaurant it's a bit smaller, but I'm willing to bet that neither of you could finish a pork knuckle by yourself. Best wishes from a German living in Switzerland 👍

[@benne_drakenpancer]

Yep, pork knuckle typically is boss level regarding the amount of meat you can get in one dish. Don't get fooled by the prominent bone. Though it may be pretty big indeed it's still surrounded by a humongous heap of meat.

[@Flo-vn9ty]

Well, one thing he really got wrong: Germans would never dip their pretzel in mustard. That is a really American thing to do. You would typically eat them just on their own, with butter, with Obatzter (a dip made from different cheeses) or with a cream cheese based dip.

[@gbbgbb1856]

At some places, with butter and honey (thats really good too)

[@klaus2t703]

Bavarian here. I fully agree. Mustard is for the sausages. Maybe you dip up the leftover mustard with a pretzel / bread roll / bread to "clean" the plate. No need to do so, though.

[@Sizzlik]

Ich sag ma nö..ich dip mein laugengebäck gern in senf. Geschmäcker sind verschieden. Obatzer bekommste in meiner ecke nich..dann eher kräuter frischkäse. Jedem wie es lieb is..

[@klaus2t703]

@@Sizzlik You may eat your pretzel dipped in milk. May be. But still it´s not really a thing in Germany. It´s not an a menu card. And in case you find a menu card which serve you a pretzel with mustard, then probably it´s just in a touristy place .. where (only) the tourists ask for it.

[@MrBaxxor]

Great video...but Wolter is the typical visitor from the States: spends all his time in southern Germany, including the obligatory trip to Berlin, and talks about “German” cuisine. Most of the dishes shown are (very tasty) regional specialties from southern Germany. Pretzels and especially white sausages are not a thing in most of Germany.

[@Gr8Buccaneer]

just a little side note to you guys,dont worry about gaining weight.many many people,that came from the US and stood here for 2 or 3 weeks,they actually LOST weight and feld much more powerfull and healthy.

[@peterpaul5820]

Happens when you eat actual food and not poison 🤷

[@helmutkoohl8652]

especially american girls love our country because the extreme ammount of food, not just the sausages. the paistries are unbeatable, is know that really well because every girl from us went every day into our bakery to get some special food there, which is only given here, i swear ;)🥰 after all, you move back to the us, with some special food in your luggage, and, as well, in your belly, maybe a few pounds more before you came here to land of sin and good taste 😅 btw, believe me; the bone in the meat is normal, and it makes the meat more delicious. hace a li'l bit care about the "sauerbraten". it's well, but a bit sour, maybe not what you want. and if xou like bretzel, it's nothing against "laugenbrötchen". it looks like the brezel, but it's much much more a dutx to eat it, nearby the same taste and optik. uh i forgot: in the us, you are not allowed to frink alcohol before 21. bad deal. here, in germanny, you can drink beer and wine in the age of 16. hard stuff like whiskey in the age of 18. so come here and drink the very best beer worldwide, with 16 years 🤣😘 we got over 1000 breweries here right now. you'll find out which beer is your favorite, but don't try to taste every beer, becaus therefore, you will need years...😂one thing is important to you: have care, if you come here, just 1 or 2 weeks, you're addicted. you come back, 2. time. and 3. after all, maybe you meet a nice boy, and he + this food here, will you make live here 😘but please, don't drink sweet wine. here normally nobody drinks sweet wine. always white or rde, and it's a bit dry and fruity.. if you do this trip, you will find yourself in a real disneymovie, because germany is it in real. we are used to live this style, but american girls are shocked about our food, drinks, castles ( over 20.000), and old cities, like mine, over 2000 years old. so, germans have a saying: beer is liquid bread. 🙃our sparkling water is together with the natural gas from the source, 1000 or 2000 meters down under our feet, filtered by nature. we are very special about healthful and natural food and drinks, by law. oh, people often says, that jägermeister is good after meal. that's a lie. don't do it, it makes you only to grow fat. one thing which is really important is, you have to eat "döner kebap".

He lives in my hometown Freiburg. He is sitting there at the Kastanienplatz Biergarten at the mountain above the city from where at you can see the whole town.

[@dradux2079]

The big meat pile, which made Em ask "What was this?"... that was the kebap meet in the kebap grill / broiler. And there was one other thing that has fallen a bit under the table... the Berliner Kindl he has shown, was actually a Berliner Weisse, which you mix with syrup. It's very sweet beer and it's a typical summer drink in Berlin. You can get it in red (raspberry) or green (woodruff). Berliner Kindl is the producer of it, who offers even more beer variants than only Berliner Weisse. When you go to germany, make a food vlog and let us know what you liked and what not. :)

[@maggie_rhee_wählt_blau]

[@tubekulose]

If you look for some information about the original Wiener Schnitzel, you better ask an Austrian (sorry, dear German mates!). The original one is from veal and is served with a lemon slice or wedge and a little dipping bowl with lingonberry jam. No mushroom sauce or any other stuff that turns the delicate coat of breadcrumbs into a soggy mess! A Schnitzel enjoys being gently dipped but hates to be unlovingly drowned.😁 The traditional side dishes would be parsley potatoes, potato salad or cucumber salad. Also mixed salads are an option. Chips with ketchup and/or mayo as a side order are generally frowned upon but accepted when it comes to children insisting on it or incurable lowbrows. I personally have always preferred the classic combination even when I was a kid. 🙂

[@Flo-vn9ty]

As a German I have to agree, the traditional Austrian version of Schnitzel is the best.Especially with a potatoe and cucumber salad.

2:50: Oh yes, Currywurst! Just listen to this song by Herbert Grönemeyer, "Currywurst." It's in German, of course - so to laugh your head off, you need to understand a bit of German! All the best! Oh, I forget: you get the best Currywurst in the Rhein - Ruhr Region, around Herne, Essen, or Duisburg! What you also MUST try is all those cakes and tarts you can have over here; in Cologne the place to be are bakeries called Merzenich or Schmitz - Nittenwilm, they have almost anything!

[@dasmaurerle4347]

Fun fact: There's no such thing as a German potatoe salad, as sometimes promoted in German restaurants in the US. There are thousands if not tens of thousands of German potatoe salads. Basically, every family has their own recipe. Sometimes it's made with mayonnaise, pickles, onions and bacon, for example. Or with broth, pickles, onions, bacon and peas. Or with mayonnaise, pickles, onions, baloney and chopped up boiled eggs, but without peas...Some use freshly cooked potatoes, others let them cool down for a couple of hours or a day. Some use waxy(low-starch) potatoes, others use starchy potatoes... you see where I'm going with this....😂😂😂

Be careful with the sweet wines - the sugar increases the headache on the morning after… But on another note: If you‘re looking to go to Germany for the FOOD, I‘d advise to come here between early to mid December because of the Christmas markets… they are usually one food stand next to another, and another, and another one, and…. Well, I guess you got the idea. There are like tons of videos about German Christmas markets and the food there here on YT. PS: Nobody over here calls sparkling/carbonated water „Wasser mit Gas“ - we call it „Sprudel“ (pronounced „shproodle“). The non-carbonated ones are „stilles Wasser“, sometimes the versions are „(Brandname) Naturell“ or „(Brandname) pur“. There is also „Medium“, that actually is well-carbonated, and, yea, Sprudel is usually VERY carbonated.

[@klaus2t703]

You don't like mustard. There's nothing wrong with that. Still, I recommend you give it a try. There is a wide selection from sweet and mild to salty and spicy. By the way: Other KZbinrs used a crowdfunding campaign to travel to Germany/Europe. Or use exchange programs or go as an Au Pair. And: Don't be afraid of gaining weight in Europe. By eating more naturally, you will have a more natural sense of when to stop eating. In addition, you don't get hungry too early and you are more active (walking, cycling, etc.). Beer / wine: Mind ... you drink it for refreshing, for hydrating, or because of the taste .. not to get tipsy in first place. Usually the sparkling water is not flavoured at all. For sure you can buy if you like.
