Trying DUTCH STREET FOOD in AMSTERDAM! (Albert Cuyp Market - Food Tour + Shopping)

[@darleenerixey496]

These two are so refreshingly natural and each has an adventurous palate. Love their videos.

[@raskahn9286]

Bitterballen are not congealed chicken soup though, they're filled with what is essentially a roux made with beef stock and bits of beef, this is the "standard" version. Other options are available.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Oh ok! We had read that it was basically a thick soup that was cooled, battered, then fried!!! A roux makes more sense! Thank you for the correction!!! 😊🙏

[@cynthiamolenaar770]

It even was traditionally a deluxe bakery product, maked by the baker and served in fancy restaurants, before it became just “a snack”

[@PieterBreda]

No, most definitely not a chicken soup.

[@darrellbeets7758]

the roux is called a salpicon, but yes u are correct.

[@darrellbeets7758]

@@PieterBreda its not as incorrect as it might seem...u start with vet and flour, most likely butter and bake the flour then u ad boullion to make a salpicon, and fill it with bits of meat. Just ad water and use less flour and its a soup... cooking can be fun.

The freshly made stroopwafel (pronounced 'stroapwaaful') outranks the supermarket kind 1:10,000,000 The salted herring is actually fermented herring. It is extremely healthy, although an acquired taste. If it 'tastes like the ocean' it means it is very fresh excellent quality.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Oh absolutely agree with that!! The first time we tried it was a grocery market version, and that’s ok… but fresh they are an absolute treat!! So delicious! 😋 Thank you for the tips on the herring!

[@ColumbusII]

When we've got friends over from abroad, haring is a must! You've done it✔️😀 The way you've ate it is local to Amsterdam, cut and served with pickles. In most other areas you will be served "haring" whole (gutted of course) its being kept together as one fish by its tail, there is where you grab it, tilt your head backwards and raise the herring up above, than to lower it in your mouth and bite off the herring. One day it needs to be done, guys 😃👍🏻

[@PieterBreda]

Haring is brined and frozen but still raw. It is frozen by law to kill parasites. Only in some parts of Holland (the province) they are served with pickles but in most parts of the Netherlands, they are not cut into pieces and served with or without onions.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Thank you!! Wasn't quite sure of the process! We will have to try the whole version without pickles one of these days too!!

[@PieterBreda]

@@IfWeGoTo We usually grab the tail and bend our neck to eat it. And you ate nieuwe haring which usually means it was caught recently. Herring is caught in May and June. So if you eat it in those months, they were fresh (after brining and freezing). The rest of the year are still the fish that were caught in May and June. If you eat herring in March, they are quite old, still good but the taste is a bit different, they are softer and less chewy.

It seems to go unnoticed (or just never mentioned) that the herring is actually quite fatty, the combination with the pickles is an obvious one if you consider this.

if your herring tasted like the ocean, you didnt eat a good one. they spoil pretty quickly and you need to get them early season to have the best ones.

[@IfWeGoTo]

What’s the best time to get one?!

[@MarcoFD]

@@IfWeGoTo new herring comes out around june 15th each year. the place where you get it is also important, generally you want it freshly gutted from the knife, as soon as they are pre gutted and lay around for only a hour it starts to taste like "liver oil/fishy sea" more and more. also back in the day herring was also stored in stomach juices (pickled in it) which preserved their freshness before beeing salted, but that process is skipped nowadays and it just gets salted.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Ah awesome!! Thank you for the tips!!! Had no idea they started to change after just an hour!!

[@carinalindberg7377]

Don't pop them in the microwave, put them on top of a hot cup of coffee/tea/chocolate to let one side get warm and soft. It's how the Dutch eat them at home.

Be aware of herring sellers. If you try one demand two things; how fresh are they and always demand the onions on the side and NEVER on the fish. They scam you big time by masking deteriorated herring with those cheap onions and way over expensive fish. Some herring sellers are extremely rich and not for being fair, but for selling trash fish you would not feed your cats either.

[@IfWeGoTo]

I thought it was pretty good!! but next time we will be sure to get the onions on the side and find a good herring vendor!! Thank you!

[@jimmymiata]

in spite of what people say; haring as eaten in this video, is not raw! its fermented with salt

[@IfWeGoTo]

Thank you for the correction!!! It's interesting that the fermenting process keeps the raw-like texture huh?? Certainly on observation alone it seems like it! lol

Dutch pickles are different than American ones. That might make a difference in that you actually like these ones.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Ahhh that makes sense!!

[@SideWalkAstronomyNetherlands]

Be very careful with bitterballen and kroketten, they are extremely hot inside, really... Pickel does not go with salt herring at all, that is an amsterdam thing, it needs raw chopped onions, and no the fish is not "Raw" it is fermented. In brine for months even..

[@IfWeGoTo]

We will definitely approach with caution next time! lol. Ahh I see, it felt raw like sushi, but fermented would explain the texture! That's too bad pickles arent supposed to go with it because I felt like it was a good compliment to it. Next time we'll just go onion!

[@Pasunsoprano]

Chicken soup in bitterballen?? No. It's a roux, normally with beef or veal. Also stroopwafels have stroop in the middle, which is reed sugar syrup, not caramel. Furthermore Nutella is German so not traditional on poffertjes.

Oh, by the way, also recurring, no herring is not raw, it is fermented fish. And you shouldn’t eat it with pickles or onion. A good herring doesn’t need anything extra. Onion is a sign that they serve not the good herring. Street food is often fried. Home cooked Dutch food not that often. Only in lowest class Dutch families. We know that you shouldn’t eat that much fried.

American can sail on Duch ships to USA $$$

[@IfWeGoTo]

That sounds like it would be a long journey!!

[@tomholland3806]

To be fair Amsterdam is the worst place to get Dutch street food. Most products in Amsterdam are so focused on tourism that they up the price for less quality compared to the rest of the country.

[@IfWeGoTo]

That makes sense! It was still good, but what’s your favorite city for street food??

[@tomholland3806]

@@IfWeGoTo For most each specific streetfood there are different places where you get the best. In general it's The Hague. But for: Stroopwafels: I would go Gouda Haring: Urk or Volendam (Volendam is in general also a nice place to visit for tourist and Urk and Volendam are fishing villages) Poffertjes: Laren Bitterballen: Doesn't really matter since most places use the same type and you can't really screw them up you can even buy them in the supermarket the ones they sell. (my favourite brand is Van Dobben)

[@IfWeGoTo]

We definitely have some of these places on our list for our next visit so we’ll be sure to try out the food when we stop by. Thanks so much for the recommendations!!! 😃

[@kickthespike]

You could just ask someone how to pronounce the name...because you got it so wrong

[@IfWeGoTo]

We'll have to do that next time! lol. We tried to look it up online before going, but people's pronunciations are all over the place! lol

[@8alakai8]

real bitterballen are made of horse meat

[@IfWeGoTo]

I would still try it!! 😋

[@mm-pw3cm]

😂😂😂😂 toerist think amsterdam is holland

[@IfWeGoTo]

I think away from the Netherlands it kind of gets used as a blanket term!

[@hernandajalisca8174]

Public $3x there is legal, while we were walking around Amsterdam, we encountered people having $ex on the boat while sailing, people on the bridge were cheering hard. This happened twice, definitely considering visiting again, should recommend the boat trips too.

[@IfWeGoTo]

Hahahaha that's crazy!! Glad you had a good time, seems like it was fun! Next time we will have to do the boats!
