Hi, I'm Uyen Ninh but please just call me Uyen!
I moved from Vietnam to Germany 3 years ago for studying. I make silly videos about how Germany looks like through the eyes of a Vietnamese - on my way to be your favourite Ausländer! :D

[@sabis6377]

You should do another video and let a German person „cook“ all of these recipes for you and you have to try them again…

[@pirlie]

Oh yes, we need a collaboration with @SallysWelt !

[@doodahgurlie]

@@pirlie I think it's a good idea...but what if she still doesn't like it? She'd feel some sort of pressure to say she likes it to the person who made it or to appease her audience.

[@IQzminus2]

@@doodahgurlie I think it can be done in a “which is the best German dish?” type of ranking video, from a Vietnamese perspective. So like 5 different classic German dishes are made, and then they are ranked against each other, where one wins. The focus isn’t if she likes someone else’s cooking or not, but which dish wins and which is ranked the lowest.

[@amyschmidt1113]

I'm a vote for YES. Have a German person who has practiced to do this. I would gladly watch the whole thing and give thumbs up!

Imo GBF should do the cooking so she can be more honest with the review

[@inmagutierrez9420]

Hi Uyenn!! Here in Spain we call this dessert arroz con leche, and the technic is not grong, the grong part is to put the sugar in with everything on the pot since the very first moment. The sugar needs to be add at the end so the rice can be soft. Also the round grain rice is pretty diferent from jasmine rice and is the best for this recipe, due to its lack of flavour it absorbs any flavour from the liquid ❤

[@glow6871]

Wow same in India! We call it kheer

[@tasnimtrisha2]

Same in Bangladesh too. We call it Payesh. You can make it with sugar. Or use jaggery instead of sugar then it will have a beautiful smell of jaggery and it will be brown in colour. It's so yummy.

[@lovericky143]

in from el salvador and its the same here😅😅

[@SummonerSheena]

Hi, German here! We can add the sugar at the beginning of cooking it doesn't affect it usually. What affected her cooking was actually her washing the rice beforehand because the rice used for Milchreis as most other "standard" rices in Germany are already prewashed, so she managed to wash out the last bit of starch that was in the rice. I'd love to try out arroz con leche sometimes though, it must also be very good!

[@SarahHope883]

I’m British and we have Rice Pudding here. Very similar and we use short grain pudding rice for it. I like making it with coconut milk but cow’s milk is the traditional way.

Schmaltzbrot is awesome! It's just butter on toast, but with a meaty pork taste instead of the rich buttery taste. The red onion goes so well on it. To be fair, though, I do not put that much Schmaltz on my bread, just a thin layer, and I like a little paprika too. I also use rye bread, my grandma only ate Schmaltzbrot on rye, and I love the stuff.

[@Dekubud]

Thank you for the tips! I always feel bad throwing away the fat from when I fry bacon. Next time, I'll save it and use it to make Schmaltzbrot!

[@josephteller9715]

@@Dekubud you can also just include the bacon on the bread, instead of just the lard. Plop onion slice or a grilled tomato slice on it... Schmaltzbrot BLT sandwich is also a viable combo.

[@silvil4034]

Some ideas from a German who loves these dishes: 1. Toast Hawaii: Try to use Ketchup instead of butter and use real ham (Hinterkochschinken) instead if Lyoner. And of course you can use fresh pineapple :) 2. Try the Schmalzbrot with pickles (Gewürzgurken) and roasted Onions (Röstzwiebeln). I know that it is a common snack in german pubs, so it's something that is likely eaten when you are drinking alcohol. 3. Milchreis: Please don't wash the rice before cooking it. You need the starch for the consistency. And try to let the milk cook before adding the rice :) Some people als like to add vanilla pudding powder. An other common way to eat it is with apple sauce instead if cherries. Hope it helps if you want to try something again :)

[@marcd6897]

many people wash the rice to get rid of nasty stuff like Arsenic, and IMO not washing rice is eeeeek.

[@silvil4034]

@@marcd6897 I know, but it doesn't help when cooking this dish. :D Although there will always be remains of "nasty stuff", packaged rice is mostly already well cleaned in Germany.

[@leleeb137]

​@marcd6897 It's special rice for this dish. That's why the packaging says "Milk rice" you do not have to clean this kind of rice. It's already cleaned and has other ingredients in it. You would just wash the ingredients away and so it doesn't taste how it should.

[@myrillya]

Soooo. I think we need to clarify something. Toast Hawaii: I personally don't like it, but I have to correct that Lyoner (which is basically a baloney sausage) is NOT ham. It's a sausage. For toast Hawaii you need cooked ham, not baloney. So, even though I'm not on Team Hawaii, I need to correct this. 😂 Schmalzbrot: I was a bit confused, because you can buy this lard ready as a spread in almost every supermarket, even in discounters. It's called "Griebenschmalz" or sometimes "Zwiebelschmalz" which has already onions in it. :) Especially the onion version isn't bad at all, even though I can't eat too much of it. And in Germany you can also get like the bacon rind (Speckschwarte) which is just the white fat and it's actually needed for traditional recipes like Möhrendurcheinander/Möhreneintopf. Milchreis: I mean, it has to be super soft, otherwise it's not done yet. It has to be the "special" "milk rice rice"!! Furthermore, you need to cook the cherries with some starch or some "glaze" (for fruit cakes) so they get a little bit more thickened. Then you put the hot cherries with a ton of cinnamon on top of the milk rice. 🥰 Makes such a difference! Edit: added the "milk rice rice", I dunno how I missed that, thx comments 🥺

[@legion999]

Homemade schmalz is always better

[@herminexd]

Agree but what she made was no Schmalz, it was rendered bacon fat that solidified… not proper Schmalz

[@HerrChiller]

Nice comment. I would add: Schmalzbrot: The most important thing is to have a great fresh bread from a real bakery. The dish just consists of 2 parts so use hig quality. Lard can be bought at a supermarket for example "Apfel-Grieben-Schmalz" which is ok. But especially at christmas you get "Gänseschmalz" at a lot of butchers, which I like more. If you want to make it yourself, season it while cooking and put roasted onions in rather than the fresh ones. I guess it is not the right dish for breakfast because it is very heavy. It is more for the evening aside with some slices cucumber or radish. And I have to say on a butter bread you have the same amount of fat. If you put a slice of sausage and cheese on it even more. Milchreis: uyen there is no way to use jasmin rice, please do not try that. Milchreis takes time and the right amount of milk. Yes the cherries have to warmed up with some starch thickened cherry juice. I personally would not combine cherries with cinnamon. I think either cherries or sugar and cinnamon.

[@myrillya]

@@HerrChiller I totally prefer the combination of cinnamon AND cherries. Sometimes I even add some to my cherries. :) And I totally missed she used Jasmine rice omg 😭😭 I totally assumed she used milk rice rice 😂

[@elenaa9681]

In Europe rice cooked in milk is quite popular I think. I'm from Romania and it's my childhood desert. But for a while I used to live in Japan and when I told people about it they were a bit shocked and skeptical :))) just like you. Now I'm back in Europe, in Spain and people eat it here too. I actually consider it a comfort food. ❤️

[@bcamping1]

I shared a kitchen with asians in many hostels. I think they don't have a concept of cooking with milk. I made a roux sauce with milk, they were very surprised. And I was surprised when they made macaroni with potato. Good times.

[@DevynCairns]

@@bcamping1well, roux is very common in Japan at least, there are many yoshoku dishes that involve it, though I think for home cooks it's more commonly encountered in premade sauce mixes rather than made from scratch Also if we're not just talking about cow's milk, there are *many* recipes in the region that use soy milk in basically the same way in cooking, including in soups, stews, and desserts, so it shouldn't be so weird. For example, hot pot / nabe with a soy milk base is very popular

[@zitronentee]

​​@@bcamping1 It's different in Southeast Asia. Milchreis for us is in the same category with basmati and other kind of rice that used for main course food. The ones we use for sweet dessert are white and black (sticky)glutinous rice. Usually cooked with coconut milk.

YES to the lard-bread! I was so skeptical when I tried it the first time. I am Australian but my husband is Hungarian and that is a common thing there (zsíroskenyér - "fatty bread" they call it). I immediately fell in love with it. Delicious in my opinion. Especially as a bar snack served with a beer.

[@cv990a4]

Toast or bread with drippings is a traditional hard-times food in the UK. It's what you make when you don't have much and you're hungry. I suspect that a lot of people ate similar things in the US during the Great Depression or during WWII when there was serious rationing. High in calories, but otherwise not particularly good for you.

[@BangtanPurple7of7]

No! Lard is vile! I cannot believe they tried to bring that back as a "Delicacy" in Berlin at fancy restaurants in the early 00s🙈💜 (& now it's gone mainstream) Never!

ohhooo we eat sticky rice with jaggery and milk too! Also sticky rice with mango and milk is adored at our house. We live in Bangladesh

[@Lnclt-tc3ln]

1. I think the main reason for the CANNED pineapple on the Hawaii toast is simply because the recipe is several DECADES old (1950s) when fresh pineapple was hard to get in Germany. 2. The LARD bread... you CAN get the lard premade in the store. That usually has a few extra ingredients like salt and a few herbs or greaves(dt. Grieben) in it. Tastes WAY better than pure fat. 3. The Rice: an old method of "cooking" it is to actually cook it rather hot at the beginning and then remove it from the stove, wrap it in 1-2 blankets and let it steep for 1-2 hours (until soft). This "grandma method" means you can do something else while waiting. That way you only have to keep it on the stove for ~20-30min. Also: use round rice and NO WASHING IT !!!

[@RamboTronical]

I advice against using fresh pineapple with cheese it can start to break the cheese down and make it disgusting

[@Freaky0Nina]

It is canned because it's a dish for people who either can't cook, or just don't have the time nor energy. Toast Hawaii is made with the cheapest cheese, cheap canned fruit and cheap bread (toast) on purpose. If we wanted it to be "fancier" the bread is the first thing we'd improve about it, trust me.

[@serpifeu5836]

That’s exactly what my grandmother did to the rice to. She always placed in in her bed too

[@abciii]

Yes their was one a time in US where pinapple was realy hart to get so the price went up 8000$ per piece and their was also a market that borrow/lend pineapple for special conditions like famious gov visits

[@AlissaSss23]

Pretty much the same in Romania too. For a very long time, fresh pineapple wasn't available or affordable. The pork fat is better if you grind crunchy deep fried bacon and mix it in, paprika, salt and pepper too.

[@Zephiias]

For the Schmalzbrot: cube the fat and slowly get it roasted. Then remove the crispy cubes and roast some cubed onions in the oil. When the Onions are crispy too add the crispy pork cubes back in and let it cool/harden. Then you have Zwiebelgriebenschmalz which is the best Schmalz for Schmalzbrot. The normal one tastes bland, and also dont use as much lard as on some pictures online, thats too much. Also dont use Bread like you have used, rather use a Krustenbrot. Dont forget the salt before eating :j

[@easton_alecsandré_ephiccza]

Etwas fein geschnittene Apfelstückchen und Gewürze (Rosmarin, Thymian etc.) runden das Schmalz ebenfalls sehr angenehm ab. Unbedingt ausprobieren.

[@babablacksheepdog]

I'm surprised she was so put off by it. Plenty of countries in Asia have a similar dessert (although it is sometimes made with coconut milk instead of cow's milk). The main mistake here is that she used long grain rice, which will never fully cook through in milk and will never give the right sticky/creamy consistency.

[@betsyadams9670]

Yes we had rice pudding growing up but used leftover rice as well.

[@kirstenpaff8946]

I get where the rice pudding could be off putting at first glance, but here are some things to keep in mind: 1. Plenty of rice eating cultures have rice porridges (think congee in China or juk in Korea), where the rice is cooked long enough to break down. This just happens to be a sweet version of that. 2. Rice is an import ingredient in northern Europe, so historically it was a bit of a luxury. As such, it makes sense for it to be used to make a treat, rather than as an everyday staple. 3. This is the kind of recipe where you don't want to wash your rice. Much like with risotto, you want the starch coating the short grain rice to thicken the pudding. The low and slow cooking method, combined with the stirring helps to release the starch. I do not recommend using jasmine rice or any other kind of long grain rice, because you won't have enough starch to get the right consistency.

[@user-tt8wg4cc9r]

@kirstenpaff8946 from Asia here(Philippines)...and we have rice porridge like this but we wash our rice well. to make the consistency, we will mix some glutinous rice with sweet rice porridge or just use the glutinous rice...i like this as snack or dessert. we cook this with toasted mung bean or sweetcorn, like how we cook in our Province instead of cherry and cinnamon....or also with chocolate (tsokolate batirol) which we call champorado. many Filipinos love champorado.

I disagree on the long grain rice comment. My family only uses jasmine rice and our rice pudding turns out just fine 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@cf_spacetime]

Yeah short grain rice like Arborio or Bomba is the way to go, Jasmine would not work out. I can't read the label, but it looks like she use Basmati? Not great for this if so as that would be a source of the hard texture she was experiencing.

[@Pti_chapo]

I'm French and I love the rice in milk with some vanilla which we call " Riz au lait". I think it's easier to buy it already made and eat it cold as a dessert tho. Quite a popular dish across Europe.

[@lesliesmith9185]

Best cooking show EVER! You two are such a good team.

[@Seldarius]

Couple thoughts on the Milchreis: - don’t wash it. You want all the starch. - you don’t have to stir it all the time (even though most recipes will tell you to). Bring it to the boil while stirring, then put a lid on and turn down the heat to lowest setting and stir every 15 minutes or so. - Cook it till it’s completely soft, not however long it says in the recipe. Depending on the rice, your stove, and the mood of the day it can take 30 minutes to an hour. - I‘ve never put Sherry in it, but you can add whatever you want. Some of my favourites are cherries from the jar or apple sauce on the side and of course, cinnamon sugar on top. - It’s not the easiest dish to get right, but it can be delicious once you do. - Oh, whatever you do, do not use random other rice for it. You need Aborico rice (also known as Milchreis or Rissotto Rice) because it has enough starch to thicken the milk and the ability to soften all the way through.

we also eat this in France but without the cinnamon or cherries. What we sometimes do is put it in individual cups and add some caramel on the bottom. I also like to use honey instead of sugar to add some subtle flavor. So I was about to write some advice but I saw your post and you said it all. I could just add that washing the rice is not just bad because you need the starch, that's part of the issue, but on top of that the rice starts absorbing water and so it won't absorb the milk as well as it should and the flavors won't mix well.

As a Vietnamse who tried more than 3 times to enjoy rice pudding, I understand Uyen's opinion about it a little bit. Dairy consumption culture isn't a very common thing in Vietnam, even in the big cities. Also, based on where Uyen grew up, I assume it's far more difficult for her to experience milk / cheese / cream with foods in her childhood 🤔 Vietnamese's common comfort foods have almost zero connections with dairy products, and to be honest, our gourmet thinking is pretty limited in a way, not so open-minded at combining sweet and savory flavors together 😅 of course we do wanna learn new things outside our country, but that'll take some time

Hi Uyên, Vietnamese living in Germany here and I come to defend the Milchreis :) It's not as weird as you mentioned if you think about it. Since you come from the North VN, I am sure you are familiar with "xôi chè" or "chè kho", which are also rice eaten sweet. Also the way to make Milchreis is basically how you cook "cháo" except with milk instead of water. And I'm pretty sure all of us has tried "cháo đường" once in their life right haha Also protip, Milchreis (the rice itself not the dish) is basically the most similar in texture to Jasmin rice since it stick together when cooked unlike Basmati or Long-grain rice which look like Jasmin but completely fall apart once cooked. It's also usually the cheapest, so it's very popular within the vietnamese students circle here in Germany. Also "cháo" cooked with Milchreis (again the rice only) is way better than Jasmin I think.

[@rnptenafly]

I bet if your rice cooker has a porridge setting, you could use the rice cooker to cook milk rice.

[@Winona493]

[@OmenaOmega]

Milk rice is a very popular dessert in France too, called "riz au lait" which basically means the same thing. I can 100% relate to german bf saying that it's a comfort food reminding him of his grandma! Here we infuse it with vanilla while cooking though, and no cherries or cinnamon on top Regarding the Hawaii toast, it's definitely a german thing but I get the vibe. I suspect that this recipe was developed during the post-WW2 boom of convenience products, when canned fruit was bringing a bit of exoticism to european households at a time when fresh pineapple was a rarity! Hence why recipes always call for canned slices

[@raempftl]

The Toast Hawaii was indeed developed in West Germany in the 1950ies. As an East German, it was already out of fashion when I learned about it after reunification and have eaten it maybe twice in my life.

[@Seldarius]

I think you’re right, the recipe is a hangover from mid-Last century, hence the canned pineapple and the plastic cheese (and the cocktail cherry if you really follow a recipe). 😂 Nowadays it’s usually a staple for „I had a long day and the kids need to eat“. I think we all grew up with it. It definitely needs tomato sauce/ketchup with it though.

[@riderkamen9353]

I understand Uyen's opinion about rice pudding a little bit, as a Vietnamse who tried more than 3 times to enjoy rice pudding. Dairy consumption culture isn't a very common thing in Vietnam, even in the big cities. Also, based on where Uyen grew up, I assume it's far more difficult for her to experience milk / cheese / cream with foods in her childhood 🤔 Vietnamese's common comfort foods have almost zero connections with dairy products, and to be honest, our gourmet thinking is pretty limited, not so open-minded at combining sweet and savory flavors together 😅

1. Lyoner is a sausage, not ham. Can't imagine to eat it hot. 😬 High quality ingrediences are key here. 2. Lard for Schmalzbrot should be seasoned more and during cooking, with added Kümmel for example. Also, the best is Austrian/Bavarian "Bratlfettn" on bread. It's the lard that's left in the pan after a pork roast. Of course it's inviting heart desease, if one eats it on the regular. 😅 3. Maybe the German Auntie, who showed you how to bake a Donauwelle, will make a proper German Milchreis for you. Or a "Reisauflauf". 😋 4. All your recipies are kinda suspicious. 🤪

Asian in Germany here. I think that pineapple goes better with salami than ham. The sweet and salty are better balanced and it matches the asian flavour profile more. About the milk rice, it's not supposed to be washed before cooking because you need the starch to get that creamy texture. Also the milk needs to come to a boil first before turning the heat from high to medium. One yummy dish to try would be Reibekuchen mit Apfelmus, potato pancakes with apple sauce. You can buy the batter ready to cook. I would love to watch how you take a vietnamese dish and germanize it or the other way round. Maybe a banh mi with some german ingredients?

I bought myself a rice cooker for Christmas (one of the better recent investments). As it’s a product of a German company, it has a dedicated Milchreis setting, which is just as easy as with regular rice, but requires stirring every 10-15 minutes and leaving the rice to rest for 10 minutes after cooking. I assume the difference is mainly in temperature as milk will boil over quickly. Milk rice is usually made with short grain rice, similar to risotto rice, that won’t get mushy despite the longer cooking time. Contrary to other preparations, I don’t think you’re meant to wash the rice (again, same as with risotto). The additional starch is needed for it to set. With jasmine rice, it would probably become a gloopy mess.

[@josi_k.]

U absolutely shouldn't wash the rice! As u said, u need the starch, also the rice is just short grain rice, the same kind used for sushi. Maybe also risotto, I'm don't know about that. I usually make sushi with "Milchreis", because it's absolutely the same, but way cheaper.

Well the way it was made in this video was an abomination. Xd When properky done it can be delicious. It's one of those dishes that's only as good as its ingredients; you need quality. I'd use a slice of white country bread rather than toast, then you put butter on it (no tomato anything, it's not a pizza), thinly sliced real ham (definitely NOT slicing sausage!), fresh pineapple if you can get a nice ripe one, and top with a mild cheese that melts well, like Swiss cheese or gouda. Stick it in the oven under the grill until the cheese starts to just slightly brown. The sweetness and slight acidity of the pineapple goes surprisingly well with the smoky flavour of ham and the creamy cheese. It's one of my favourite snacks but I wouldn't eat the sad excuse shown here. ;)

Schmalzbrot stems from a time when people did hard physical work all day and when nothing was left to waste. My grandparents were farmers with a tiny bit of land and some animals. Once a year they would butcher a pig and everything from this animal was used for food and it had to last for the whole year. No wonder they did not only use the fat/Schmalz for cooking but also used to mix it with herbs and spices and put it on their bread. I bet for a hard working farmer who did neither have access to sweets nor meat everyday a slice of bread with some Schmalz on it was tasting not only awesome but also giving them some energy to do their work. (btw they also used the fat that's left after cooking meat in a pan to put it on bread and eat it. nothing was left to waste)

[@quietone748]

My German Mother-in-Law made Griebenschmalz every year around Christmas time; she would caramelize onions, and the render the lard slowly so that the brown bits remained in it, then would mix it all together with salt and pepper and let it ool. We'd smear it on gray sourdough bread, and top it with more salt and pepper and have a salad or some radishes alongside it. The first time I tried it I thought it was weird but tasty. Now I miss it.

Toast Hawaii is really simple with just a few ingredients. So it's important not to switch it up too much. Use toast, cooked ham, canned pineapple and cheese that melts easily. (Often, people use "Scheiblettenkäse" which is very processed cheese that melts in an instant. So much so that it's almost wrong to call it cheese anymore. ) Just assemble everything and put it in the oven until the cheese is melted and the corners of the toast are crispy. No need to toast the bread first.

It would be best to use English Cheddar or Gruyère..

I always use cheddar for my toast Hawaii, because it melts nicely and has a lovely taste. Scheibletten don’t taste any good for me. And fresh pineapple that I grill in a pan and caramelise it in its own juice before adding it on the toast.

Hi, Uyen, we eat rice porridge (Reisbrei) and preserved fruit (eingemachte Früchte) as a main dish and not only as a dessert. When it is almost finished we add two egg yolks for one liter milk, and the egg white is made to foam and also added. Thus the rice porridge becomes fluffy. There is a similar dish in Indonesia. It's called "Bubur ketan hitam" and made of sticky rice, coconut mik and cane or palm sugar. There are many sweet main courses, especially in South Germany, e.g. Karthäuser Klöße, Pfannkuchen, Waffeln, Dampfnudeln, Pfitzauf, Weckeierhaber, Germknödel, Reisauflauf, Grießbrei, Grießschnitten, Natronringlein, Apfelküchlein, Hollerküchlein and some more. If you like I can send you a copy of the original recipes of my mother's recipe book from 1955 or from my grandmother's recipe book from around 1920. For Hawai-Toast we also roast the bread first. Then we put the remaining parts including one cherry on it and then make the cheese melt in the oven.
