GERMAN FOODS YOU HAVE TO TRY

[@HayleyAlexis]

Yummy, delicious, amazing, tasty, flavorful, and so many more. These are the words I use to describe German food. I tried to give you guys a mixture of different German foods that I love. I tried my best to eliminate the stereotypical foods and give my personal list of not so common German foods that taste amazing to me! If you have never had any of these foods let me know :)

It's funny to see all the food we have here in Baden-Württemberg but named differently ;)

[@michaelgrabner8977]

the secret of Käsespätzle is simply the delicous cheese besides of the Spätzle But Spätzle are done sooo easy just try it to make it by your own there are tons of different Spätzle recipes online...but I do it this way with 500g of flour - 4eggs - 1 teaspoon salt - 250 ml water (or milk) all mixed together to a dough Then you need salted boiling water ...put the dough in a coarse sieve (while you hold it over the boiling water) and let the dough drop through the sieve into the boiling water (you have to put a little bit of pressure on it as well)...in the moment they are starting to swim they are done...the whole procedure = making the dough and boiling the spätzle is in 15 minutes done...and the amount is for 4-6 portions and what you don´t need can be frozen in the freezer for the next time.. The easiest dish is to put the Spätzle in a hot pan with a little bit of hot oil and add some eggs salt and pepper = "Eiernockerl" and on the plate add some fresh chopped chives..that is done in 3-5 minutes For Käsespätzle you just have to fry those Spätzle a little bit in a very small amount of clarified butter (Butterschmalz) and you have to add the grated mountain cheese (Bergkäse) of your choice ..a bit of salt and pepper and just a very small pinch of grated nutmeg and on the plate add fresh chopped chives and done...that is done in 5 - 8 minutes If you like you can fry some chopped onions as well...Therefore you cut onion rings and cover it with flour /but not too much just that they are covered/ I like to season them with a bit of paprika-powder but that´s not a must and fry it in hot oil till they have the golden-brown colour you like. Those are all done very easy peasy.

[@michaelgrabner8977]

About Leberkäse...the word Leber is here just a transformation of pronuncation during the time of the word "Laib" (loaf) and has no connection to "Leber" (liver)..and in earlier times the form of the loaf was typical for a loaf of cheese so it was originally called Laiberkäse which transformed into Leberkäse..in the North they often call it "Fleischkäse" also because the form of the loaf was as I said before typical for a loaf of cheese.

The best thing about oncoming winter time in Germany is the first nights with frosty temperatures; then it is that you can get your first Grünkohl (kale) of the year. - Just take one or two onions and cut 'em very fine, lots of garlic (Yaarrr) and let them lose their texture in a large pot set to medium heat. - Have a bit of vegetable-based bouillon ready. Add some slices of Kassler-Meat, Westphalian cabbage-sausage (Kohlwurst or 'Pinkel' in Westphalia, has nothing to do with urine, just sounds a bit like it), some bits of Cabanossi sausage adds even more spice to it . - Fry all of this meat-overkill for a bit in that cooking pot. Then add your first bag of kale to it and close the lid - wait till it has reduced down a bit (add bullion as needed), depending on for how many hungry mouths you're coking, you can always add more kale to it. Don't forget a good dose of whole pepper grains and of course a healthy handful of laurel leafs, but be sparing on additional salt yet, as the sausages usually have lots of it 'on board', especially if you got them smoked - which yet again boosts up spiciness significantly (is that even possible? Oh, yes). - Once all ingredients are in the pot, keep all this on upper medium temperature, much longer than anybody advocating "healthy cooking" would advise you to - Grünkohl is about the joy of eating, of life, of taste and maybe even decadent pleasure ! Let 'them' nag on their corn and tofu instead; you feast your senses with the most addictive stuff you'll ever find (on this planet) ! *Note: Once you're done stuffing your stomachs to the rim with this sheer magic and you realize, there's a lot left over in the pot - don't worry; whatever remains even GETS BETTER ONCE WARMED UP (!!!) on the next day - or the day after that - the magic continues ! **WARNING: Well-prepared Grünkohl is highly addictive - prepare and consume responsibly !

you remind me of the Croatian girl an American friend here in Austria finally married. He dated a lot of girls here, took them out for dinner or cooked for them. When I asked him afterwards how these dates were going, he usually complained like: naaah. she won´t eat this, she won´t eat that, she only had a salad and left half of it on the plate, she was so picky that watching her ruined my appetite etc etc. But when I asked him after his first date with the Croatian girl, he gave me a delighted look and just said: She can eat! (they´ve been married for about 20 years now...) Liebe geht durch den Magen, they say.

In all of southern Germany west of Bavaria it's called "Zwetschgenkuchen", and I believe the term is not unknown to Germans further north either.

I think one of the main differences between the US kale and the german Grünkohl is the time of harvest, I made Grünkohleintopf with US kale and it tasted quite different, with the difference that german kale is harvest late (often after the first frost) and therefore most of the starch has been converted into sugar) which makes it sweeter than US kale

@@HayleyAlexis Die Bitterstoffe im Grünkohl zerfallen bei Temperaturen unter 0°C. Deshalb wurde Grünkohl in Deutschland üblicherweise erst nach dem ersten Frost geerntet.

Your pronunciation of bavarian words ("Fleischpflanzerl", "Obatzda", "Zwetschgendatschi") is so much better than of most native north Germans. It's probably because you never had a Prussian accent to get rid of.

[@ingobordewick6480]

You find "Grünkohleintopf" not that much in the south, because it is a traditional northern german meal. I would suggest you to eat some "Grünkohl" in the north, because there it belongs and the most delicious "Grünkohl" is made there, the southern one is good, but not compareable to the traditional northern one. By the way, eat it in winter, because then you can be shure that it is fresh, it's been harvest after the first nights with tempretures under 0 C. Everything else you get has to be frozen for some time and "Grünkohl" looses a lot of taste while being frozen.

Leberkäs‘ is a special food of Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg. This food exist in a lot of German regions, but only in Bavaria it is allowed to call it Leberkäs‘. In the other regions it is called Fleischkäse, because there is no liver inside. E.g.: In Saarland exist real Leberkäse, because it is liver inside. Meatballs in Germany has a bunch of different names from region to region. Also the recipe can change a bit, but the main ingredient are hacked meat, kind of bread and they are roasted in a pan. All you‘ve to know read here: de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frikadelle The original Königsberger Klopse are meatballs too. The meat is hacked veal and no bread and it’s cooked. Saumagen is a typical meal of Rheinland-Pfalz mostly at the south. Grünkohl is a traditional meal of northern Germany. And the famous meal is Grünkohl mit Pinkel. In this case is Pinkel a special sausage images.app.goo.gl/qQWb1eG81NbbRqhT8

Grünkohl is a northern Germany national meal, with potatoes and Pinkel ( a type of sausage in which groats are a major ingredient), sometimes with Kasseler (Cured smoked pork) and Mettenden (a smoked tatar sausage) >The main time to eat this is between november and february

Very good cross-section with a slight southern influence. It is always the simple local dishes that convince me - no matter which country you are in. Whereby it became clear to me what funny names we Germans give our dishes - which is irritating for every visitor.

[@HayleyAlexis]

I tried my best to mix it up. A lot of people get tired of my SOUTHERN based videos...So I decided to include different regional dishes that I have tried and love!! The names are always so hard for me but it's ok with practice comes perfection or...at least decent speaking 😂

[@lw7108]

Largely! southern influence, be it the dish itself or the name of the dish... with few exceptions (namely , ).

[@missis_jo]

@@HayleyAlexis When it comes to food and their names, this country is so diverse that even we native speakers stand no chance! You can speak as much accentless high german as possible. Once you talk about food, your origin is instantly reveald 😅. (Krapfen being a very good example, just like pancakes they have a thousand names 🤷‍♀️.)

[@swanpride]

It's not really "funny names" most of the time it is just the local dialect. Which is why more or less the same food has different names in different parts of Germany.

[@dagmarszemeitzke]

Saumagen came from the Pfalz. It was the favorite meal of former Kanzler Helmut Kohl. Maultaschen was also called "Herrgottsbscheißerle" because you can eat meat without seeing it. "Flammkuchen" is a very thin dough with cream, online and bacon

[@BernieUndErt]

Königsberger Klopse are cooked, Frikadellen or "Fleischpflanzerl", as they are called in Bavaria, are roasted.

[@TheGogeta222]

Du meinst wohl Fleischpflanzerl oder "Frikadellen" wie es die Preußen nennen xD

Another lovely video, must try some more german food

[@telly64]

Sauerbraten (with Klöße) and Jägerschnitzel are delicious as well ;-)

[@wermagst]

10:40 Grünkohl mit Pinkel (that's the name of the sausage) comes from the north-western part of Germany. Usually served with potatoes and sometimes other meats like bacon and/or Kassler.

[@HayleyAlexis]

I have only had it with the sausage :) I will have to see if I can find someone that can make it with bacon.

[@lazyperfectionist1]

😄 Oh, Hayley, you're cute when you stumble over German words.

[@teleri1932]

hey hayley nice video....but I missed the Zwiebelkuchen, the Rostbraten, and the Sauerbraten....best wihes for the year 2020

[@CologneCarter]

If you want to take your Zwetschgenkuchen to the next level and make it sweeter, try sprinkling a mixture of cinnamon and sugar on top. I love it.

[@djbrec]

I’m going to butcher the spelling- but Jagerschnitzel mit spaetzle and the mushroom gravy is my life force 😆❤️ But always with the amazing salad which I have NO clue what it called but it’s always served with German potato salad and a bean mixture both under fresh spring mix of salad and served with a yogurt dressing- that salad also gives me life 😆❤️❤️ My daughter misses the “banana juice” I thought that was so funny because in the States we have every juice but no banana juice but it was her favorite.

[@HayleyAlexis]

I have actually noticed that in the USA (Florida) we also do not have a bunch of juices... and what we have as juice is basically sugar water with artificial flavoring. I miss a delicious/strong blood orange juice!!!

Krautsalat? 🤔

The Döner Kebap was actually invented in Berlin. But the inventer Kadir Nurman has Turkish routes, thats why its often associated with Turkey.

[@Benman2785]

Grünkohl is northern-german (also eaten in Netherlands and Denmark) the "red sausage" is "Knacker" i prefer it this way: 2-3x cook/boil the Grünkohl (add lard (first cooking) + pieces of onions (last cooking) + small pieces of potato (last cooking)) heat the "Knacker" (i prefer the more firm/hard "Schinkenknacker") - if the water starts to boil remove it from the stove/heat (otherwise the "Knacker" explodes) (for supermarket bought dry "Semmelklöße") sip "Semmelklöße" in cold salted water for 5-10min - boil them in same water for 5-10min (until they float and are hard-ish) put it nicely on a plate - bon appetit

You can definitely tell you’re in Bavaria by how you roll the ‘r’ 😂😂 People don’t usually do that in other parts of the country

[@Gerhard-Martin]

Hey, It really depends, Anni: 8-/ There are also "rolling "R´s" found in Franconian Dialects, in Friesian Dialects / Plattdeutsch, in the Allgäuer Dialects, in Swiss and in Austrian Dialects, too. Although, for some weird Reason, there are Exceptions WITHIN these Dialects (Bavarian/Austrian/Friesian/Franconian), where SOME of the "Rs" , especially the "er"-Endings are turned into "ea", "eä" or even just simply "ä". ( e.g.: "Wäänää" instead of "Werner" (Friesian) or: "Hea Mülla" instead of "Herr Müller" (Bavarian)).

"Saumagen" is indeed a filled and boiled pig stomage. Has it's origin more in the south western corner of Germany named "Pfalz". "Grünkohl" ,often combined with sausage comes from northern Germany. That's why you didn't seen it offered in Bavaria very often.

Grünkohleintopf ist einer meine favoriten gerichte für die winterzeit, es wärmt von innen, und mit ausgebackene speck streifen und wurst dazu, und das speckfett mixed man durch die gestampfte Kartoffel und Grünkohl masse. You can ad a few drops of vinegar in the mash when it's on the plate and or some real mustard on the side of your plate.

[@inotoni6148]

In Rumänien, bei der Deutsch-Ungarischen Minderheit (zu der ich gehörte) ist das Essen fast identisch zu der Bayerischer oder Österreichischer Küche. Fast alles was du aufgezählt hast kannte ich auch von dort, aber ich muss sagen, dass ich die besten Brezel in meiner Kindheit in den 80-er in Rumänien gegessen habe. Das war noch die Zeit als das Mehl lokal und ohne Chemikalien und anderen Optmierungen angebaut wurde. Genau das gleiche gilt bei den Krapfen die mit dem selbst Hergestelltem Jam gefüllt wurden. Diese Zeiten sind, zumindest in den Städten vorbei, denn Westliche Firmen haben die Lebensmittelindustrie übernommen. Gerne würde ich wieder die damaligen Gerichte aus Rumänien essen, das wäre wie eine Geschmacksexplosion. Meine Eltern haben immer wieder versucht beim Kochen die gleichen Geschmäcke mit den hiesigen Zutaten hier in Deutschland hinzubekommen, sie haben es aufgegeben.
