Great recipe! I love Obatzde, I have fond memories of eating it in Füssen when I was last in Bavaria. I've seen several other native Germans chime in, but as a native English speaker who learned German as an L2 I thought I'd give a shot at explaining it to other native English speakers. The thing that's gonna trip most English speakers is the z. In German, z doesn't make the sound it does in English. Instead, z is prounounced ts. So it's O-bats-duh or O-bats-da, with the emphasis on the O. So the only minor issue with the way Frank pronounces it is that he puts the stress on the wrong syllable, which really isn't that big a deal here.

Hey Frank! You say it quite niceley, a little more weight on the O would be cool. But usually it is written Obatzter. The Wirtshaus I help uses it to stuff it into a Cordon Bleu along with Schwarzwälder Schinken instead of the regular - quite tasty! Greetings from Lower Bavaria (near Altötting).

This stuff is one of the most amazing inventions from Bavaria. Highly underrated comfort food that should conquer the world IMHO. Omitting caraway is not seen often, but there are many recipe variants. I personally prefer not caraway heavy versions. Cayenne should be fine, the "hot paprika" typically used just comes from a different region but it's all capsicum annuum so who cares?

Funfact: Obatzda comes from the bavarian Word "Obatzn", which means smushing stuff together, which is exactly the traditional way of making this. Your pronounciation is pretty off, but honestly, 80% of germans also fuck that word up, so who cares. It would be much shorter, similar to o-bud-star (leave out the "r" at the end) Nice recipe.

It is called offensive and/or FOUL language for a reason, having nothing to do with birds or feathers, which is spelled fowl. Water fowl, like ducks, geese, pheasant, etc. If you actually read the Community Comment Guidelines, it states that using profanity in any way, shape or form is NOT ALLOWED. "Profanity is the effort of a feeble brain to express itself forcibly"... Spencer W. Kimball. Yes, there are more than 3-letter words, like ass, a donkey... So says Shrek. 🙃 Four-letter words like the F bomb, feces... S***, the C word for female genitalia, or the D word for male genitalia. Five-lettet words, the B one, another name for a female dog. Six-letter words like jackass, aka a mule. These and many other profane words are oftentimes used for shock value. We get it. Yes, there are other alternative words in the Dictionary, whether it's Oxford, Webster's or Wiki. There may be young children watching Chef Frank's vids and reading the comments... future Global Chefs? Very likely so, so... knock off the profanity, ok? Love you, but really? 😴 You degrade this channel, Chef Frank, his viewers and the millions of minions who sub to Chef Frank - but; most importantly, you denigrate yourself. Sad.

0:59 and 4:17 Is this color considered "dark" in the US? In Europe I would say most would call this amber or something like that? Dark makes me think more of a brown/blackish colored beer.
@mattkuhn66342 жыл бұрын
Because of the beer market in the USA, when Chef Frank says "dark" he isn't so much describing the color as much as saying "not light." Despite the rise of many microbreweries who do some great beer, the American beer market is still dominated by beers like Bud Light, and if you just told someone to use a beer they might go and use one of those which wouldn't add anything to the flavor. This is just saying "use an actual beer."

@MrAranton2 жыл бұрын
@@ProtoCookswithChefFrank Let me put it this way: A German comedian (from Bavaria) likened the bavarian dialect to the howling of wookies... Exaggerated jokes aside: Germany has two large dialect families (Lower German in the North and Upper German in the South), and while all Germans understand and speak (though often with discint accents) standard "High" German, local dialects that evolved pre-standardization are still widely spoken locally, and to someone from say Hamburg, full-on local Bavarian might as well be a foreign language. Southerner have a somewhat easier time understanding local dialects from the North, because standard German is based on Lower German, so they're not as different from Standard German as the Southern dialects are. And to make matters even more confusing, there is considerable dialectal variation even within Bavaria, in Franconia (the northern part of Bavaria) this preparation is not called "Obatzda" but "Gerupfter". It's a miracle we got ourselves organized to the point we posed a threat to the entire world twice in 20th century despite those language barriers...
