It's so interesting to me that Deana says apple pie feels like summer. As a Dutchie I usually associate it with fall and winter, paired with a nice hot chocolate and whipped cream on both. I'd also like to mention that Dutch appeltaart is commonly served on birthdays instead of a cake, or alongside cake (depending on how many people you've got coming over)

[@nielsdebakker3283]

Because the goudrenet is a late apple, and apple pie I count as (warm) comfort food. No whipcream on my apple pie though.

yes apple pie is often considered a good addition to up the portions if its needed for a birthday

[@Emily00Strange]

I'm from California and Apple Pie is also a fall/winter dessert in America. Usually during our holidays (Thanksgiving & Christmas). Sometimes we put ice cream on top of our apple pie, called "apple pie a la mode". But it's a dessert for any season out here.

Agreed! Also, there's different types, so if you did get bored, just try another brand. I really like the kwekkeboom kroketten. And i once had some sort of kerrie (curry?) Kroket which was awesome, but never found that exact flavor again.

[@FlexDRG]

The bitterballen and kroketten are basically the same, just a different shape. As for the filling there are a few types. Mostly varying in the ratio of meat vs gagout. The bitterballen you tried were more of the ragout type while the kroket was more a beef - kroket (far less ragout)

Hi. I'm Dutch and most people eat Kibbeling without chips. The same type of fish but not in pieces, we call Lekkerbekje. In small chunks it's called Kibbeling. In a Lekkerbek there can be fish bones. They are not in Kibbeling. Glad you liked our food ☺️ greetings from Alblasserdam, NL

[@angeliquefama-schel5065]

Kroketten are usually a bit more chewie. The filling in Bitterballen is usually softer

[@RJA6508]

Kibbeling and lekkerbekje should be the same fish(Whiting or Merling) but sometimes they use cheaper fish.

[@likilikiki]

@@basvandervecht You think it's cod when you order a lekkerbek but trust me when I tell you it's more often than not something else.

[@Dutch1961]

The kibbelingen where originally made from cod cheeks. We Dutchies don't like to waste food so one day one of our Dutch fish vendors thought it was a waste to throw away tho cods head with these chunks of fish meat on the cheeks. He took out the cheeks and after first putting them into batter he used for lekkerbekjes he deep fried them. That's how kibbelingen came to be. Nowadays they mostly make them of chunks of cod filet as there are not enough cod heads available to supply everyone with kibbelingen.

[@Andreas_Cologne]

About that language thing: i am from the northwestern part of east germany, and one time in the 1990ies we went to the netherlands with the family, and we had a hard time in the supermarket figuring out what to buy. So my granddad started talking in our local dialect (Altmärker Platt) to a woman working there, and they understood each other very well. We were quite astonished about that, but granddad just put it like this: "if you can speak Platt, you can speak everything"

[@karinaemelie1665]

[@mrssmallhold]

I'm Dutch, live here and part time in Altmark. You are right, Platt Altmarkisch and platt Dutch are very similar.

When you can please try the fricandel speciaal ( without batter, but with onion ketchup and mayonnaise) and… the fries ( friet or patat) with satésaus. Typical Dutch and so good (it’s based on an indonesian sauce from peanuts) 🥜

[@christopheantoine5472]

They should first be informed about how these fricandels are made. They would probably consider this as not edible.

[@diekop6204]

Better yet Fries with Stoofvlees and Mayonaise.

[@IkBerend]

no ketchup but curry

[@doosenco]

@@christopheantoine5472 There is nothing disturbing about a frikandel. It's a myth frikandellen are made out of udders, eyes and other waste meat. It's just made of chicken carcass meat.

[@beeedifferent]

@@christopheantoine5472 Do you mean the cow eye myth? Do your research first, because that is simply not true. It is made with mechanically separated meat (separatorvlees), which is meat separated from the carcass. No eyes. No organs. So what are you talking about? Maybe you're veg(etari)an, but then I should recommend you do not eat any of our national dishes, because most of them contain meat.

[@mara5387]

Nice video ! Your dutch pronunciation is great. My compliments ! Greets from the Netherlands !

[@ralphb7401]

I’ve never seen a “gepaneerde frikandel” before. We Dutch generally eat the regular Frikandel (fried minced meat sausage) with “special” sauce, that’s unions mayonnaise and ketchup or curry. Preferably we cut the frikandel open in the length and fill it up with the sauce. You also missed poffertjes and Dutch pancakes. The Dutch pancakes look a bit like the French one, but heavier and backed with all kinds of ingredients.

[@flitsertheo]

We have the "Viandel" but the batter is different.

[@superlynnie]

LOL, only the Dutch thinks that Dutch is difficult. Before I learnt Dutch, my Dutch friends were all saying how it is one of the most difficule languages in the world. Still makes me giggle to this day.

[@throughthewindowpane]

Welcome to the Netherlands. Nice video!! After a holiday abroad, I really crave something simple like a wholegrain sandwich with creamy butter and old (ripened) cheese with mustard. So simple, but só delicious! I also recommend trying erwtensoep a.k.a. snert. And the Indonesian and Surinam food is also very good in the Netherlands. The history is regrettable, but the food is delicious.

[@littleDutchie92]

Nice video, nice to see my own little country! The kibbeling you tried second (kibbeling are the chunks, lekkerbekje is more like a whole fish, more like the fish and chips in the UK), are usually made from Codfish. To be honest, when you stay longer you should actually also try some 'stamppot" You've only tried different snacks, but it's usually not what we eat for dinner. For dinner a very dutch thing (which fortunately with the younger generations you see less and less) is aardappel groente vlees. Plain cooked potatoes, plain cooked veggies and plane baked meat with a little gravy. But stamppot is really good food, like boerenkoolstamppot or zuurkoolstamppot, both with rookworst. Also the Dutch eat pannekoeken (pancakes) for dinner, you can try it also!!

[@BennoWitter]

You might already know that, but if you want to take trips from Dusseldorf into the Netherlands, you have a lot of great options. - By public transportation: You can take a direct train to Venlo (RE13) or Arnhem (RE19). You can also get to Nijmegen, but it's a longer ride and you have to switch to a bus to get to Nijmegen from Kleve (that option is limited at the moment since there is construction going on on the RE10 from Dusseldorf to Kleve, that should be finished by the end of November). You can go via Emmerich and take the bus from there. All of those options have one thing in common, those Dutch cities are integrated into the VRR transport association, so if you already have a subscription pass (Ticket 1000 or Ticket 2000) in Dusseldorf, you can go there for free at certain times. This is a good, cheap option if you don't have any heavy shopping planned. - By car, if you want to go shopping or take trips further into the country you can, of course, go everywhere even the North Sea beaches in about 2,5 to 3 hours. For short shopping trips most people go to Venlo or Roermond (which has a huge artificial village made up entirely out of outlet stores by all the major designer brands). It's very popular for Germans to cross the border, when the shops in Germany are closed on Sundays and the holidays, because they are usually open in the Netherlands, but it can be very crowdy, since Germans are sheep and if you have the idea to take such a trip, thousands of Germans will have that exact same idea. As for food, I have to recommend my favorite Dutch desert which are Tompoucen, cream-filled pastries with a pink frosting on top. They are sometimes sold in German bakeries under the name of "Holländer Kirsch" or something like that.

[@karinaemelie1665]

Not all German People are sheep. I often meet Dutch people with similar dispositions to the herd instinct, e.g. in ski areas (like Sauerland and Harz) and outlets like Gerry Weber. 🐑🐑🐑 😁😉 😂😂😂

You may be wrong about most people in The Netherlands understanding German. Maybe they do understand it, but speaking German is an entirely different issue. In my job, it get many calls from people from Germany and most of them don't even have the decency to ask whether or not you speak German. Many elderly people don't or refuse to do so, and the younger generations are not interested in learning German because English is far more interesting as far as careers are concerned. No offence to you Phil, but from time to time asking a German to speak English, because you don't speak German, can be hilarious!

I am a Dutch resident. You only ate party food. And not the food we normally eat on al dayley base. Kroketten en bitterballen (plural) bitterbal (single) are the same. Only different shape. Taste of those depend on the brand. A frikandel does normally not Ave a breadcrumb crust. And the appeltaart you had, is normally served with whipped cream, and sometimes vanilla ice and whipped cream. And is not a Dutch desert. But also more a party thing. Birthday and so on.

I didn't like Bitterballen much, it was too squishy and strong in taste for me. But during the 2 month internship we had a cook making the evening meal and though I was biking to work every day, I got 2kg more in those 2 month. It was really tasty and always more than we could eat.

There's usually a machine that changes money, giving 1 € (Euro) coins and quarters. To the left and right of the vending machines on the wall it says with big letters in Dutch to go to the "Loket" or cash register desk for change with an arrow pointing to the right. It also says "Broodje" meaning "Bun" because you can also order those things on a bun at the desk. I usually order a small French Fries with Mayonnaise and one of the different kinds of Kroketten + a Fruit Juice.

My favorite kroket in the vending machine wall is probably bami, which has Indonesian fried noodles inside. Very tasty and unexpected. Kaassouffle are nice for dipping your fries into. :D However, that kaassouffle doesn;t look great, the cheese on the inside should be very melty and more of a thick liquid. Broodje haring are nice, too, and yes it usually comes with onions and pickles. The dish you definitely missed (in my book) is erwtensoep, which is a pea soup with potatoes and a sausage. Good stuff.

The issue with the kaassouffle happens too often IMO. I love kaassouffles but only a few snackbars/restaurants actually get it right. As a kid there was a snackbar where I lived nearby which had those fat, juicy kaassouffles with molten cheese dripping out of it at the slightest touch. Even as an adult I can't remember ever having one with the same level of quality. I also love "broodjes haring." Heh. this video made me hungry. I think I'm going to get some of this food tomorrow.

Going to the mall and then in the middle of the day treat yourself to kibbeling and sitting down for a bit. Such wonderful memories. Never in my life I saw a frikandel like that before. We normally eat it without this coat of batter. At least everywhere else. And yes, a kroket is like eating 3 bitterballen in one long run :) You can get your fries with whichever topping and sauce or mixture you like. Apple pie, I'm dying for it right now.

When in NL you should definitely try Surinamese food. You are not likely to get it anywhere else, other than ofcourse Suriname itself. It's so good. Also: breaded frikandel? must be a southern thing, never seen one before. Try a frikandel speciaal next time (with mayo, curry & onion) and try Patat oorlog (fries with mayo & satésaus). Another snack you should try is the underrated Bamibal. And treat yourself to some poffertjes, but you'll have to find a place where they sell them. Enjoy your stay in NL!

Try the "frikandel speciaal" or the "fries speciaal" or with saté, those foods are very common and the sauces on it are excellent. It is a typical dutch thing.

[@Kira-zy2ro]

I just love this kind of video, i could watch them all day! The kibbeling is very hit and miss. Some of the mobile fish shops sometimes make it super greasy or use old fat so it doesnt taste that good, but you lucked out with a really good restaurant, bcs it looks like some of the best i ever saw, and the chips, i could almost taste them :) The same goes a bit for the haring. You need to know where to get it as not all fish places have a good variety. You identified the kroket correctly, its basically a long bitterbal (bal is singular, ba l _len_ is plural ) Now to all foreigners: while these were some common things dutch eat now and then, we dont eat fried food and apple pie all the time. These things are more like snacks and treats or stuff we eat when out on the town shopping or drinking with friends or coworkers. I have never stood in my kitchen frying kibbeling, although we do make bitterballen on a party sometimes or have fries as a side dish with our _vegetables_ and _meat_ LOL and ofc apple pie is a staple thing served at birthday parties. I bake one at least once a year on my brithday. For really traditional dutch dinner dishes you should try a (good) meatball or pork chop,, cooked potatoes (make sure they are 'kruimig' and had a bit of salt(3 teaspoons) added to the water during boilingt and were left to dry out a bit after pouring off the water) with gravy and some pea/carrot mixed vegetables. Or zuurkool stamppot with gebakken spekjes. Or, something Deana will likely recognise: pancakes! For breakfast and lunch, to some foreigners surprise, we usually just eat bread with some sliced meats or cheese, or some spread like peanut butter, jelly (separate, not together or chocolate paste) The last few decades the dutch have shifted from a lot of dutch traditionals like sperziebonen, spinazie, rode kool, boerenkool, spruitjes, bietjes, to also cookt a lot of italian, chinese, japanese, indonesian and turkish/moroccan styled dishes, making it harder to get something 'real dutch' that isnt snacks. LoL if i ever start a restaurant ill have a 'tourist try out" arrangement where you get small servings of a ton of dutch traditionals. Shame i dont live near the border or next time you should come try my apple pie. I'm sure phil would eat his fingers with that. My family recipe uses far less cinnamon and several other tasty things than just dough and apple.

[@bikeamour]

Considering fish, Kibbeling and Lekkerbekje are allright but fried Schol tastes even better, although the downside is that is has many bones.

[@CyberBeep_kenshi]

Ye kibbelingen. Sometimes awesome, sometimes you need a toilet too soon. Old fat etc.... i avoid them if i don't know the vendor

[@jwenting]

"Most Dutch people understand almost anything in German". In part because every Dutch child gets at least 1-2 years of German language classes in school :) You got lucky with your kibbeling. Depending on the vendor it can be very good or extremely bad. Especially at the end of the day the frying oil can get rancid and not every shop takes the trouble to replace it frequently enough (same with all deep fried foods, obviously). Kroket and bitterballen are variations on the same concept. Thick roux covered in breading and deep fried. Best ones have a high meat content, cheap ones mostly starch :) Matjes is pickled herring, so yes it's very different. Available in the Netherlands as well, usually sold in glass jars. Welcome to the Netherlands. Now try real Dutch food and not just street snacks :)
