Interesting. It seems nothing much has changed in 70 years. I was eleven in 1954 when my parents immigrated to America. In the late forties and early fifties, breakfast, other than the slices of bread with hagelslag or muisjes, was often havermout (oat porridge), topped with butter and brown sugar. Lunch was bread with cheese, or sometimes a slice of ham, and sometimes with sliced apple on top--and all with butter or course, or margarine. Dinner often lacked meat (the times were just a few years after the end of the war; meat was expensive, though pork chops and gehakt also appeared on our plates.) When there was no meat or fish, there would be two vegetables on the plate. Vla was for dessert, or fresh cherries when available. Every evening meal was accompanied by piccalilli as a condiment. Everything was bland as hell and as unadventurous as could be, but who know that as a kid? When I first tasted authentic Italian-America lasagna made by an Italian woman from a Sicilian family from Long Island, my mouth had never tasted anything so good. Dutch snacks of course were a different story. Kroketten, Indonesian lumpias, verse haring. En komeine kaas. We were a middle-class family from Rotterdam.

[@stufr.travel]

I do agree that I think the traditional Dutch meals/dishes are rather bland. That is why nowadays we love making pasta’s and rice dishes as well. We embrace the dishes from abroad haha. We need them😂😂

[@vangrails]

A lot has changed in 70 years in the Netherlands when it comes to food. Lasagna for example is eaten a lot in the Netherlands, it has become staple food. Hagelslag however is still there.

[@vangrails]

What is by the way also really popular in the Netherlands is McDonalds and Burger King and Domino Pizza and Subway and Starbucks. Those chains were not here 70 years ago and now they are everywhere.

[@dutchdykefinger]

​@@vangrails as a 39-year old guy my perception is kind of like this look back at me growing up in the late 80s and early 90s nobody really gets appelstroop anymore that much as they used to, i found that to be quite staple back in the day, seemed like almost everyone had one of those yellow and red bastards (timson rinse appelstroop) back in the day, some wre there for years though, it has always been a divisive food, many people hated it ( i was pretty indifferent to it, but i liked it once every blue monday) but most families had one of them hidden in the kitchen cabinet regardless. some brands that were quite commonly found like bebogeen and chocopasta beregoed and the such are gone now i believe, that changed i guess, not all that much. Also, sandwich spread was a shit ton more popular, it's still around, and i still eat it from time to time, but i remember that being quite the staple too, almost everyone had sandwich spread too lol

[@magical5181]

Im 16, and for me a normal meal would be vegetables, potatoes and meat. We also eat lots of stampot.

[@okkietrooy7941]

When I grew up breakfast consisted sometimes out of oatmeal or a wheat variation of it (Brinta) with some casterd sugar or syrup. The rest of the time it was a bread meal just like lunch. A bread meal was quite extensive. We sat together around the table. At the table was a loaf of white and brown sliced bread and sometimes variations like tigerbread, raisinbread, rye bread. Your mother would cut off slices of bread. Then you put on some butter or margarine and you had a lot of choice to top that. There was always peanut butter, cheese and different kinds of cold cuts. In addition all kinds of sweet things like hagelslag, chocolate spread, jam, gekleurde (colored) hagelslag, caramel spread, syrupe, casters sugar, apple syrupe. The first slice if bread was not allowed to be sweet. We drank milk, buttermilk or tea with it. Occasionally we got a boiled or fried egg as a treat. Dinner at my home always started with soup. Later we ate once a week pasta or bami but there were always a side dish of potatos for my dad. For him dinner potatos had to be part of a dinner.

I love this video. Thank you for sharing! ❤ What got me curious about Dutch meals is seeing my aunt (from my country) and uncle (Dutch), eat when they came to visit me last year. I noticed clear differences and habits--different from my country and the US--and that got me very curious. I find the Dutch meal planning, very practical, fairly quick, and also if the ingredients are selected thoughtfully, very balanced. All of which are such an asset for a fast paced life in the US! Thank you for sharing ❤

[@stufr.travel]

Yeah that could be true. But these days people eat quickers meals as well, I guess 😊😊

[@lmo7724]

I have a Dutch cousin and she cooked one of my most favorite meals at her house. It was white asparagus season, and the dish was ham and white asparagus cooked in butter with boiled potatoes. Yum! Aloha from Hawaii, can’t wait till the virus is over so I can go visit my cousin and eat more white asparagus

[@stufr.travel]

[@Scriptor13]

Very interesting traditional daily menu! Thanks for the fun and informative video, guys! In many countries (including the U.S.) modern breakfasts are often carb-heavy. If I eat breakfast at all, I eat something like vegetables and tofu because my body reacts negatively to an all-carb meal. Salad, soup, or sandwich for lunch. Protein, green vegetables, and sometimes a starch for dinner--potatoes in any form are yummy to me. ツ I love milk and cheese--I grew up drinking skim milk and still drink it when I can. (I was vegan, but for medical reasons I'm now vegetarian so that I can easily ingest enough protein.)

[@stufr.travel]

I normally only have yoghurt for breakfast. But yeah this is the more traditional Dutch meals. But lots of people still eat like this. Especially our lunches are still like this. Sorry to here you had to go back to vegetarian food beyond your choice 😢😢.

🤔 When I grew up, in germany, it was mainly a kind of porridge (with milk and not that "slimy") for breakfast , although on the weekends there was buns or toast and honey, jam, cheese, eggs whatever you wanted.🍯 The biggest meal usual was lunch which was any cooked meal.🥘🍝 for dinner it was "Abendbrot" which was what it says bread in the evening with ham or cheese. 🧀🍞 nowadays it's coffee for "breakfast"☕️, lunch whatever the canteen has to offer🍲 and in the evening some fish or bread with cheese or something like that. 🐟😀 🛺And I too do remember farmers driving through the village and selling their goods from the car wherever they were stopped in the small streets 👨‍🌾 Potatoes I do like mainly as mashed potatoes but don't have them that often ... 🥔

[@stufr.travel]

Yeah Tim introduced met to Abendbrot which I love now! And I love the wide variaty of breakfast topping and buns. I came to love German food so much haha. But also there are quite some similarities in the meals. 🤩🤩

[@giftfarisia4361]

I smelled Dutch influence here, 1:13 that breakfast is also my typical breakfast here in Indonesia, I'm myself Indonesian my whole life, whenever I don't wanna eat rice for my breakfast, I usually just eat that Roti+Mentega+Meses (bread+butter+chocolate sprinkle).

[@margaretkaraba8161]

Multi-cultural child (English Mother, American Father, Sicilian Grandmother (who also knew Czech/Polish cooking) and as I was growing up we went out to dinner a lot (I have impeccable table manners because of that). So I was used to eating traditional full English breakfast, just cereal and milk or traditional porrage, for lunch was anything that the school I was in served (either US or UK) or at the weekends would be anything leftover from dinner, or a peanut bitter and jelly (or grilled cheese) sandwich (with milk), For Dinner - well that could be anything from traditional spaghetti (Dad made the sauce from scratch) Mum would make traditional English meat dishes (e.g. roast lamb, pork chops, chicken, liver and onions) but, we'd also go out to eat about once a week (and *always* bring leftovers home). So I had a *very* varied diet growing up and as such I have no food phobias - I am picky about a few items but now, unfortunately, an auto-immune illness at 40 meant I gained a few food allergies and intolerences, so my diet isn't as varied as it used to be. But I have a lot of happy food memories.

[@stufr.travel]

Thanks for sharing. We also have a video with Dutch desserts coming soon🤩

[@rosaliesabine]

I love it! Typical dutch with the bread and different toppings in the morning. My family immigrated to America when I was a baby but this is always what we do when we go back and stay with family. Brinta, too. And of course, my parents commonly make hotspot for dinner, yummy and easy!

[@stufr.travel]

Hey. Thanks for watching. All the butter is unsalted. For both the breakfast and lunch dishes 😊👋

[@karmesindryade]

When I was a child we did not put chocolate sprinkles on buttered bread but "Eszet-Schnitten" which are thin chocolate "tablets" the size of a playing card. They came in few variations like milk, hazelnut etc. Mostly we used them on half crispy bread rolls but some liked them on darker slices of bread (Roggenmischbrot).

[@stufr.travel]

Oh that sounds nice as well. I would love to try that. I can imagine that would be nice and crispy during eating😍

[@karmesindryade]

@@stufr.travel I'm not sure if Eszet-Schnitten are available in the Netherlands (you might check out Aldi or Lidl). Typical Dutch breakfast for me as a child was always ontbijtkoek with a lot of butter. I stayed in the hotel De Roode Leeuw in Amsterdam with my mother for holidays and i remember having at least 3 (or 4) thick slices of "Honigkuchen" for breakfast. I still love it 😋

I'm a milk and cheese lover up to today. For breakfast a lot of people eat breadrolls with jam ,honey and Nutella. Some people like cereals,too.I know the Hagelslag,too. We mostly use these to decorate cookies. The nightmeal is very similar to our midday meal in Germany. Meat,potatoes,vegetables and brown sauce. In the early evening you will eat bread in different varieties,the so called "Abendbrot",if you live in a traditional family.

[@stufr.travel]

I love Abendbrot. Tim introduced me to it 😍😍. I do think our meals are rather similar to the German ones. Of course with some differences. Like the time of day we eat the warm meals 😊

When I was a kid in the early 60s, I would go stay at my Dutch girlfriends house, over night. In the morning our “Dutch breakfast” consisted of bread or rusks with butter, sliced Edam and Gouda cheese sliced cold cuts from the deli and of course chocolate hail. I knew this as “Dutch breakfast “as you didn’t have to turn on the stove so it was safe for us to eat while her parents were out in the bulb farms in southern British Columbia( Bradner, B.C) And her mom would make spaghetti sauce and used the liquid Maggi … Just incredible…

There is a theory that they became so tall because of the big amount of dairy products they consume. 🤔

Milk, potatoes, bread, and meat/chicken being the main ingredients must be hard on the digestive system: not much fiber. I would be constipated for ages if I followed this diet.😂

[@stufr.travel]

It’s not the most divers indeed. But of course that is not what we eat on a regular basis. But many people still do.

[@xenaburg2362]

Not really the plate also consist of whatever vegetable is in season along with meat and desert

If u look at my supermarket bread ingredients is white healthier it only had flour water salt while most wheat breads had sugar and rapeseed oil in it bizar don’t u 🤔
