DOMINICAN vs DUTCH Soups! | Pan Pals 🍳

[@Nancetti]

This was so much fun to make! Thanks beryl for showcasing my dish 😁😁

[@PBSFood]

Thank you Nancy! 🤩

[@CristinaN.Gonzalez]

Nancyyy, loved seeing our delicious Sancocho in this channel. Sending a big hug from Santiago de los Caballeros 😍 🇩🇴

[@VeraVermeire]

As a Dutch person, Hens just seems like that typical cool uncle that you always wanted to go to as a kid because he let you do all kinds of stuff that your parents wouldn't allow😅

[@lisam9233]

“Before there were anti-depressants there was soup”. I read that a while ago and it’s stayed with me. Soup is one of the most comforting and delicious things you can eat. With so many variations from so many different cultures, the possibilities are endless! Thanks PBS and Beryl for another wonderful episode. Sending you and everyone lots of YUM. ❤

Divided by countries, united by soup

[@leanneruss1073]

I love the goodwill in this show. The whole ethos of sharing food and the backstory is really endearing. It's just so wholesome

[@rubysoffner4557]

From a Dutch person, nothing gets you through freezing dark winter days than a big bowl of snert with dark rye bread. And being Indo, I always add a big dollop of sambal

[@geralynivettepereznegron2167]

I’m so happy for featuring the Sancocho. I’m puertorrican 🇵🇷 and this is my fave soup with white rice as is shown. Thanks for this episode.

[@nycbklynrmp]

which cuts of meats fo you use?

[@geralynivettepereznegron2167]

@@nycbklynrmp pig feet, ham, and chicken. But it can be as diverse as you want.

[@francescalee2497]

It sounds so delicious and summery I want to make it, but I can’t get vegetables like plantains and cassava here. What would be your go to substitutes?

[@geralynivettepereznegron2167]

@@francescalee2497 taro root, green bananas, yautia, butternut squash, pumpkin (the last ones you can put them at the end so it does not soften too much).

[@delirium129]

One of my favorite soups, too! In Panama, we make sancocho with chicken, cassava, and ñame (I think it's yam in English?), but I like to add green plantain as well, other people also add corn, and I love it with lots and lots of culantro (not cilantro!), served with a plate of hot white rice, and I like to drizzle lime juice and hot sauce on top.

[@JackelineFilionPino]

This made me so happy and proud! I am Bronx born Dominican and sancocho is my favorite meal. It brings many people together. My husband makes fun of me, he says at any sign of rain, I make sancocho 😂

[@FB711_]

As a fellow Dominican, making sancocho at any sign of rain sounds about right!

[@WholeHeartily]

🥰 that’s a love language

[@Selamat454]

Everything was going smoothly until he opened a jar of “sofrito”.🤢

[@BethAge95]

Ah, pea soup, unites my home country of Germany, with the country I chose as a home, Finland, with one of my favourite countries - the Netherlands! All countries make them slightly different but the creamy peas stay the same. Since winter is approaching fast in Finland, I already stocked up on dried peas and will make my first batch of the season soon!

[@FishareFriendsNotFood972]

I love soup because it KEEPS, and is really easy to choose different portion sizes per meal, two factors that are very useful for people living alone

[@PBSFood]

Totally!

[@sauersaxon]

Hens is the most Dutch person I've ever seen

[@CorriCole]

My Dad's mother's people were Flemish (Aspeslagh, immigrated to the US Post-WWI/pre-WWII). He apparently looked like a copy/paste of his maternal grandfather. When I saw Hens, I thought, "omg, Pop?"

[@TheMughes]

I just love the people in this series, Hans looks like such an interesting guy!

[@WholeHeartily]

I wanna be his friend!!!!!

[@MichMichMe]

I would watch multiple episodes on SOUP! One of the most respected chefs I follow is Jacque Pepin. His love of soup is contagious but it also comes from my dear mother and my time spent in restaurants when I was young. It’s comforting year round. ❤

[@leanneruss1073]

totally agree! I'm a year 'round soup eater too. Any time is good for soup

[@dinahselah6364]

Yes Snert or Erwtensoep...from my country The Netherlands. The most Dutch soup ever 😊

[@jaehaspels9607]

I had both as a kid. They are 2 different soups. Snert is made w/ half peas that make the mushy soup. Erwtensoep is pea soup that is made w/ whole peas and it's more brothy. I like both. My Grandma would only put potatoes and pork in the pea soup but would throw anything into the snert.

[@dinahselah6364]

@@jaehaspels9607 In The Netherlands "Snert": and "Erwtensoep" are the same soup. We do not have a brothy kind of Snert. The only difference is (in The Netherlands) Erwtensoep can only be called Snert after 1 night. When it becomes more thick we call it Snert but it is the same as Erwtensoep.

[@luchewigg168]

This video was so so sweet I can’t wait to see more clips of pan pals!

[@consuelaprade]

I am not really a soup person, but these 2 ...YUMMMM. My mom cooks both regularly (mixed race living in Suriname) and I always go for seconds. Great episode!

[@randomaccount6387]

"If you stick a spoon in it it shouldn't sink" is also a measure of a proper borsch 😂 Never had the Dutch version, but I do love the pea soup here across the border in Belgium. I imagine it's not too different.

[@BismarcksOtto]

the general German version is pretty much identical, except for the sausage: instead of the (North American style) smoked kielbasa, you use frankfurters/vienna sausages/Bockwurst, while the smoke-flavor would be provided by small cubes of smoked bacon (or just a piece of bacon rind that gets removed after cooking, if you have to pinch pennies). I would not be surprised if local variations from old East Germany (the parts that are now Poland) do use that particular kind of kielbasa though.

[@n.q163]

I am raised with snert / erwtensoep. It really is my go to dish on a cold day. It's one of my favorite dishes! I am really glad that Dutch cuisine is getting its well deserved place in the spotlight. It's really delicious if done right.

[@IgorEngelen1974]

making soup is like therapy. nothing can beat preparing and cooking a soup in my slow cooker.

[@cpp8227]

Love this series so much!! Thank you, PBS and Beryl and all your wonderful guest cooks!

[@FreedomJane-bx4um]

Beryl's a star now! We always knew she shined. 🌟

[@angelasieg5099]

I love pea soup it's very warm and velvety so comforting. Last night we made chicken and dumplings also excellent.

[@moorenicola6264]

Great episode. When you have a lot of liquid in a pressure cooker it's best to do the slow release over 15 mins that the quick release. It would have saved you guys cleaning collagen off the ceiling.

[@ecmarks438]

Great concept and wonderful outcome. Both soups sound delicious. The best of cultural differnces. Loved watching the process of creating the soups. Thanks to both of you.

[@mokumboi19]

Snert is definitely amazing on a cold, grey day. But now I need to try Sancocho!!! Looks right up my alley.

[@Lottiefla]

Beautiful!! I love your pbs show too! Great job everybody!

[@michellelogreco3351]

Soup is my favorite food. I make it and eat it every single day.

[@michellelogreco3351]

Love San Chocho!!

[@rantsandfaves]

Snert sounds like a soup from a Roald Dahl book. Looks yummy though

[@telebubba5527]

It's an acquired taste. To me it tastes as it sounds like. I came to the Netherlands as a child, but never could get used to eating this soup.

[@carmenfinn7521]

Or like a geeky character in Harry Potter's realm.

[@dawnvega383]

One love, one bowl & one recipe at a time! Bring the world together with love!

[@kellijacobsen1088]

I couldn't love this more! A comforting bowl of soup has to be a staple in every household 😍 Not just the eating, but the actual cooking of another culture's food is such an incredible way to connect.

[@zilWeis]

Love soup! What a fun and delicious episode. Enjoying Pan Pals very much. Thank you.

[@rhonda6791]

Oh my, all soups. I want to sit down and eat with you. Sydney suddenly turned cold today and this morning I thought, I need Soup! And there you were. Thank you.☺️

I'm a simple man, I see my flag on the thumbnail and I watch the video; glad I did so, very enjoyable even for a life long sancocho eater. Subscribed.

[@PBSFood]

Welcome!!

[@hernawanrahmadi1545]

I assumed "snert" became "snerek" in Central Java, especially Magelang. "Snerek" soup is made of beef (for obvious reasons), red beans (we don't have a lot of peas in Java), potato, carrots, and celery. It tastes better after thickening on the second day, just like a "snert" should...

[@zzizahacallar]

❤ Sancocho. I love soups! My favorite

[@hildavelez8609]

So beautiful! My favorite episode by far! All cooks love soup! Thank you.

[@aylasaurus]

Both of these soups sound SO delish!! Also Beryl I LOVE your UFO beaming up the chicken earrings omg!!!

My daughter’s favorite food since she was 4 is split pea soup. I loved that recipe, we will have to give it a try!

As a soup lover, this is relevant to my interests.

[@ShenanK]

They are both so sweet♥

[@nickybah-teslaa959]

Lovely pan pals episode well done you all! I love snert, watching this makes me crave it so much!!

[@ShinyFeral]

What a heartwarming episode! (and now, I finally know where I can see them! My apologies for missing that before. I'm certain you must have shared the link.) My favorite soup is a really hearty vegetable. It's mostly a clean-out-the-fridge recipe so it's never the same twice. However, since moving to Denver, I can't seem to get soup right. I don't think elevation affects it like baking, but it's just not the same. I will keep trying, though.

[@wolfie1618]

really enjoying this series! both soups sounds delicious. i will try making both. thanks for introducing dutch and dominican food

[@Orangesapote]

We’re gonna need more soup episodes!!

Yesss it’s so good as mash!

Never do a 'fast pressure release ' of a pressure cooker, if the fluid level is high 😳

[@miradfalco251]

I love this! Soup is a regular thing for me, it's such a lovely way to make use of whatever I have on hand. Just pick the flavor profile and go for it!

[@LaCurlySue562]

I LOVED this video so much! ❤

[@SingingSealRiana]

I really struggle with drinking enough, I dont like drinking, so soups are a great way to ensure I get some liquid and tgete is so much cozy variety. I love soups, egg flower soup, when I do not feel like I can eat anything, tinolang manok for the summer light and fresh, smooth and sweetish pumpkin soups in autumn, avgolemono, beet root and orange soup, green pead and mint, solid potato soup.... I often eat soup every day, sonetimes more then one typ

[@jasmingovers4403]

Oh I love Erwtensoep! It's so comforting!

[@MatthewTheWanderer]

I've never tried Sancocho before, but it sounds delicious! I have had Split Pea Soup before, but only American canned versions, so probably not the same as Dutch Homemade style.

[@ryotanada]

Coming from a former Dutch colony, I was surprised and not at the same time that an Indonesian soup Senerek has roots on this Dutch soup as well! Maybe the red beans instead of peas are the ones that threw me off. Still in my home's soups, I immediately went to Sayur Asem seeing the corn in the Dominican one. Love to see another episode on this!

[@pamelakilponen3682]

Here in Finland, Salmon soup is king and so wonderful and delicious!

[@WholeHeartily]

Yummmm!!! I’m Southern (USA) and we make split pea soup too! Yummy yummmmmm

[@nicoleleys7818]

Righto, I’m going to give it a go! Need some quick growing shade plants on the North side of my house. It gets pretty hot here in summer, I live in Northern Victoria not far from the Murray River.

[@sallycormier1383]

My sister’s family lived in Germany and had something called snert that was not a big hit with the kids. So whenever they would go out to eat their younger daughter would say “ we’re not having snert are we?!” I love pea soup but my fav has to be potato soup. It’s so creamy and comforting.

[@slapperorange]

The spoon being able to stand right up is not a joke, it’s the true sign it’s the right consistency! You’re able to get there the second day as the soup stiffens up

[@shawnkerr]

I grew up with my grandmothers, what she called, "Jewish Chicken Noodle Soup". Great soup. Later in life, I found Carrabbas Italian Grill, which is sadly closed in my area now, had a great Sicilian Chick Soup. I did find a recipe for that Sicilian soup which I make more than the Chicken Noodle. Shhhh, don't tell Grandma.

[@celestegross6622]

I love split pea soup! We make it so thick in my family that we joke that we want a slice of soup the day after we make it.

[@Thaumh]

I *LOVE* SOUP!!!

[@marroosh]

I remember snert so well during winter in the Netherlands and it was one of the few Dutch foods I never liked… I’ll have a good old stamppot any time over snert. Especially the version that resembles concrete😂

[@mollywhingo5186]

Got sent here from Monstrum, and I got a surprise Beryl lol love it!

I’m always smiling at the end of the show

[@jeil5676]

Wow. You got a real tv show. Grats.

[@ljk16o528]

the snert needs to be thick AF, and a must for winter.

😍 Hans is SO COOL!!!

[@PisongKaninAdventures]

Have you tried the Filipino pinapaitan soup? It's goat or beef innards flavored by gut juice and/or bile... Some substitute the bitterness from the bile with bitter melon juice

[@jacquelinegibson7420]

Such lovely fun!

[@PeterAnnema]

Snert. Even better the next day. My mom would take a blender to about half of it so it's a bit less chunky.

[@PBSFood]

Yum!

[@fpoiana]

I love this show! but I only can watch it on youtube, because I'm from Argentina and there is no PBS here :(

[@PBSFood]

It’s only on KZbin! So that’s perfect!

[@onetwocue]

I love all kinds of soup! From Borstch to Pho to the soups from olive garden. The only types of soup i hate are anything fishy. Anything with fish stock, to bonito to kombu. I cant

[@tktyga77]

What Argentine soups would you say would be most suited to go here (given the bias against soup in the country, mostly from times of Mafalda)?

[@OnlineRouletteSystem]

You should try west African okra soup

[@minimaggykitchens646]

In Sweden, we make an extremely similar soup to snert called ärtsoppa (pea soup). 💖

🇩🇲 vs 🇳🇱 food: which is better ?

[@TheGalacticGrizzly]

Why am I so emotional? 😭 Dutch food gets such a bad rep, and I was so excited to see her try the snert. And she actually liked it too?! 😭❤️ even though she made it herself, it still kinda felt like I was serving it to her, as a Dutch person. Like, here's a piece of my culture, I hope you enjoy. Amazing how food can connect people, even from afar ❤

[@handlevery1karefully]

To be honest! I can't find any soup which is common in Pakistan cuisine, people do make soups but not daily but rather on special occasion like when someone's is sick ,to feed him, etc . Pakistan prefer foods in solid or curry forms while watery soup is something a normal Pakistani would think bland food

It's my mum, she makes the best soup, sorry ;)

Split pea soup is always delicious, but "snert" is such a deeply offputting word hahaha

[@TheMimiSard]

Why do people like soup? Lots of liquid, lots of brown flavour, lots of good stuff in it.

[@OGMichaelC]

good show. But imo, a show about soups need to include some sort of soup from Korea. They have over a 100 types of soups and are obsessed about em

[@jawadkhelil5742]

don't worry I will not go listen to Ava Max song "Sweet but Psycho" that I used to listen to a lot. Peace Next

[@jannetteberends8730]

Monstrum sent me here, and was directly confronted with the nightmare food of my childhood: snert. Creepy! My favorite is the vegetable soup with little meatballs, made by my aunt Jo.
