Northern German Food - North German Cuisine - What to eat in Northern Germany?

[@GrouchyBear411]

I am not big on Seafood, but it sure is refreshing to see something about german food that is not just Schnitzel ans Sausage 😅👍

[@lindagieseler9566]

I LOVE schnitzel. Ate plenty when I lived in Wiesbaden. Is it even served up north?

[@WindyGardener]

My family came from Oevenum, Nordfriesland, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany with Friesian ancestry and Stavanger, Norway; my husband's from Hebsack, Rems-Murr-Kreis, Baden-Württemberg, Germany and Schellenberg, Ravensburg, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. His grandfather attended gymnasium in Leipzig in the late 1800s. I hope to come back and visit Northern Germany.

[@madTitanja]

You forgotten our northgerman Labskaus dish too !!!

[@cooking-the-world]

No. You missed the second part of this video!😉

[@juliekerr1396]

We will now have to plan for a trip up North. I’m a seafood lover and Matjes is one of my husbands absolute favorites. It’s so nice to see you back. You look amazing! Congratulations on the birth of your son.

[@cooking-the-world]

Thanks Julie! The Northern Germany surprised even us with the variety of different traditional fish dishes. So many different herrings I have never seen in my life!

[@johnmarquardt1991]

I've been to Schleswig-Holstein where I saw a lot of smoked fish ... everywhere--- restaurants, along the road, in town -- everywhere. I wish I had known at the time that my great-grandfather came from Fehmarn an island off the coast of Schleswig-Holstein. I hope to go back for a visit.

[@cooking-the-world]

Fehmarn looks wonderful 🤩 I am keeping my fingers crossed so you can go and visit it soon. And don’t forget about trying some of those dishes!

[@beckysimeone4882]

I cannot wait until dein Liebling is old enough to eat along with you. I love watching children eat, because they have such enthusiasm for it and their facial expressions are priceless!

[@cooking-the-world]

Children expressions are priceless, you are right 😊 he just started laughing with us yesterday, I couldn’t stop looking at him 🙂 another 3 months and we will be starting with real food, so exciting

[@heidicolville4961]

Congratulations on the birth of your baby. We missed you while you were off on maternity leave. My Dad's family lives in Hamburg so we have tried quite a few of the dishes you showed. I will watch for the next video. Thanks

[@cooking-the-world]

Thanks Heidi! I missed you too. Oh yes Hamburg is still on my to go list! I keep wondering how this eel soup tastes! Have you tried it?

[@jerrycratsenberg989]

I am now very hungry! As usual, thank you for sharing!

[@BenjaminGessel]

Sounds like herring, sardines, vinegar, potatoes, kale, local pastries, cabbage, apples, onions, dill, parsley, brown shrimp, sour cream, chives, braunschweiger, Sailor’s beef (beef, bacon, butter, marjoram, lemon, capers, etc.), green beans, eggs, flour (breads, etc.), milk, sausage, oats, pickles, lettuce, etc. are some pretty common foods up there. I’m noticing the vinegar-fish-salt trend, fish soups with herbs (the herb thing), the love of potatoes, using butter and cream for more filling foods/main courses/starches, some degree of a love of citrus fruits, red meats and local breads/pastries, as well as the apple thing (are berries and cherries popular in Northern Germany as well?). The biggest thing I am noticing is the prominence of fish and potatoes in the Northern German diet. 😊👍

[@sallyschmitz8048]

It’s good to see you back! Congratulations on your baby!

[@napoleonfeanor]

Schleswig Holstein is normally considered Northern Germany...being the most Northern state. If you go by states, Niedersachsen and Mecklenburg Vorpommern (plus Hamburg and Bremen) are seen as North. If you go by culture or language, some other parts such as Westphalia could be counted,too.

[@taoquan7541]

[@cooking-the-world]

Thanks 😉

[@internationalfranchisealli5547]

Ohhhh. Great work by the way

[@Bellasie1]

Oh that really looked delicious from start to finish. I love fish so this looks like heaven, but the Kassler in the meat dish is also the type of meat I prefer, so I guess I should definitely visit that region again one day! The fish soup looks so healthy and delicious! One of my favorite German specialties is Grie Soß and I have to confess that whenever I visited Frankfurt I'd order salmon and ask to replace whatever sauce with the green sauce. Can I be forgiven? Am I the only one who likes eating it with fish (and potatoes of course)?

[@cooking-the-world]

[@Bellasie1]

[@jimfrodsham7938]

Those dishes are the food of my childhood in Hamburg, we ate fish for lunch a of of days. Mostly Bratfish and BratKartoffeln. (Excuse my spelling) but Oma also made many fish Salats. Herringsalat, Crabbensalat and even fleischsalat and it was all wonderful. The only thing I don't recognise or remember are the sherry Matjes. I really want to go and visit my family in Hamburg but I don't know if I'm allowed to from England.

[@cooking-the-world]

Those fish dishes sound amazing. I wonder how the salads tasted 🤩

[@jimfrodsham7938]

@@cooking-the-world the herringsalat was made with rollmops, beetroot, Gherkins and mayo Marta. All chopped seasoned with dill and then mixed with mayo. I still make that now.

Hello - all of that food looks wonderful and some of the dishes I know very well as I spent extended periods in Northern Germany in my past. The only thing I would ask is - when you say where dishes come from or the area they are known from please include the name in the picture. I often want to look these places up but don't always understand what you say (Obwohl Ich kann aber gut Deutsch sprechen/verstehen) sometimes I am not sure. Congratulations on your new child!!!

And the number is growing rapidly every year. So I am curious where this is heading
