Hello!

Part of my herritage is Dutch! Yay!

I was wondering, if any of you have some from of Dutch or German herritage, to share the foods that you've eaten!
I think it would be fun!~

Here are my foods:

.Dutch Salad (every christmas....yuuuuuuum!)

.Lungavingers with Peanut Butter (disgusting sounding, but REALLY delisious!)

. Dutch Trifle

. Tea Style Almond Ginger Biscuts (i could eat 12 packets of these!)


So what have YOU eaten!?

i'm dutch too, okay well i just live in Holland but okay. the only thing that comes in to my mind are;
Poffertjes, Stroopwafels and cheese.
Oh and a tostie.
Pretty simpleminded if you ask me XD.

Born in Holland here... dutch food right... 'Hutspot' and 'Stamppot' .. I hate it, but my mom used to make it because she wanted to try and make Dutch food. And 'poffertjes' 'kroket', 'frikandel' ..

You're forgetting the 'Bitterballen' and the 'Kroketten' XDDD
Stampot can be pretty good though; at least how my mom and dad make it, not that i eat it every day or anything ._.

I said 'Kroket' didn't I? lol... and some Dutch pastries... atleast, I think they are Dutch? I havent seen them when I was in the US. 'Slagroomsoesjes' and 'Tompouce' I love these...

lolz didn't see it.
But what about the 'Moorkoppen' , are those dutch too?
i love them, damn i want one right now..

No idea, I think they are.. But I don't like these so I havent eaten those in like, forever. =P

I'm from Germany but it only takes me 10 minutes to the Netherlands, so I'm quite often there (and the food + other things are a lot cheaper than here XD)

Anyway, one thing I remember is Patat Oorlog- I tried it one time and it was..interesting I would say xD
Oh and also Vanilla- and Choco-Fla (Vla?) is so good (: We used to drink that during or Dutch classes

I love Stroopwafels! In fact, I have one pack of Stroopwafels in my fridge now. XD

Are we cheap?? Omg, I find our stores expensive.. And 'Patat oorlog' - War of Fries LOL! I havent eaten that in a while ( in case ppl are wondering, its fries with Mayo and peanut sauce )

And drinking vla?? I always eat it with a spoon.. I find the texture too .. chunky I guess to drink it.. but hey, whatever works for you =P

I have Stroopwafelfeest Icecream in my freezer.. - refuses to eat it.. - diet x__x

what about 'haring'? not that i like it, give me sushi instead
and tompouce?

Hmm.. what about 'drop' does that count as food? xD
and 'Bossche Bollen' yumm ^^
oh and 'Krentenbollen' xD

(i'm dutch btw)

I love Oliebol <3 with powdered sugar? If I'm saying that right.
Friet omg, I can't get enough of it!, but not too much, I don't want to get fat now! xD
Broodje Kroket YUM!
Or gehaktballetjes/Boerenkool are good too.
I'm asian, but I tend to eat alot of Dutchfood! while I should be eating the Vietnamese food! XD
My mother use to always yell me for stuff like that, she ask me stuff like: "Did I raised you a Vietnamese boy? or a dutch boy!" so lame lol.
But w/e, I like both types of food <3

I never tasted food from Netherlands before...
can u guys give me some advice about that?
I'm going to Amsterdam next month hhaahah =))

or maybe some pictures with the name? hehe^^

Whaaaa~ You can all spell the names!
I can't....

Did i spell Lungavingers correctly?


OH MY GOD!!! STROOPWAFELS!!! I used to have them ALL the time!! <3

I know this sounds stupid, and i don't know if it's fully dutch...but, have any of you ever had proper dutch applemouse?
I had some today, my oma made it! Yuuuuum....

I remember this one thing, i don't know how it's spelt, but it's chocolate flakes, and you put it on bread with butter and stuff....like 'slaar' or something?

myuu...this is a good topic!

I live in Holland too, I loove:
-Pannekoeken (with stroop and powdersugar!!!)
-Poffertjes, with a lot of butter and powder sugar!!
- Oliebollen, with powdersugar. It's a pity they only sell that around november and december =(
- Drop
- Cheese
- kroket
- Patatje speciaal with a lot of onion yummy!!
- lekkerbekje, I don't know if you coun't that as dutch food

Haha I realise I only like not really healthy food..=P

Stroopwafels are the best thing on earth.

I remember I ate one in holland, and I just had to buy a whole packet of ready ones

Do you mean 'Lange Vingers?' ^^

I don't know if "Appelmoes' is something typically dutch.. i think they have it in other places too xD

And with the chocolate flakes do you perhaps mean 'Hagelslag?' ;p

does anyone have pictures? o_o I'd like to see what they look like, sounds really delicious >.<

here are some pictures!!! dont know if they are all dutch food from origine.
only foods i like xD


sandwich with hagelslag, it's chocolate!


stroopwafels = syrup waffles..really yummy


gevulde koek: cookie filled with amandel paste


DE FRIKANDEL SPECIAAL: a sausage kind of snack, with onions,curry and mayo


bitterballen : little balls, crunchy on the outside, and filled with some meat

I have family in Holland..but never been there.
I ate something with my little niece brought with her that I guess was Holland-ish.
It's like chocolate shavings? (in a blue box I think) and you put it on toast and butter.
Haha that was pretty damn good! No wonder my 2 year old niece loves it. lol

i'm dutch too.. i would say CHEESE

maatje, raspattat and gouda
that's what comes up to my mind when I think of Dutch food.
All the other stuff that's been mentioned like kroket, frikandel, stroopwafels, poffertjes,... we have those too so I don't consider them Dutch

erh ?! you put stroopwafels in the fridge ?!?
does any other dutch person does that? (cuz i never do?..you should?)

O ANOTHER DUTCH THING ! ontbijtkoek..
though maybe some of you wont like it.. its kinda..dry..? and .. idk.. i dont like to put butter on it
it's okay... =)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontbijtkoek

my mom puts stroopwafels in the fridge .. god knows why o___o

And I hate ontbijtkoek..it gets all mushy in my mouth and yugh .__. sorry XD

Here's a pic of patatje oorlog.


Hmmm..

And tompouce


I feel like eating now..

editzorz krentenbollen! I love those, with butter..

It's actually bread filled with raisins and you can eat it dry also - meaning without butter -
A kroket Yumm..

ooeh i also know some dutch food

euhm...

Broodje gezond!! (that is healthy bread??)



Negerzoenen (n*ggr kissing :S srry but we had to change the name but i dunno that name >.<)



whm..erwtensoep!! ( dunno how to say that its soup we eat in the winter)



hmm...and of course BAMIEBAL ghihihi



Patatje speciaal (french fries with mayonais and curry with a topping of onions)



Just go the the Febo i'm getting hungry and its already 01.32AM shimattaaa :S

I advice everyone who isn't dutch and reading this topic to get some 'Stroopwafels' if they come to Holland XD
STROOPWAFELS ALL THE WAY THROUGH!
If i'd try to translate it too english it would be"
"Syrup Waffles"
XD


A Moorkop, (See one of my earlier posts, i mentioned the "Moorkoppen.")
Its filled with whipped cream and as you can see, it has chocolate, whipped cream and it often has a piece of fruit on top. 8D


And these things are the 'Slagroomsoesjes', filled with whipped cream and they have powdered sugar on them.


We call these things 'Beschuit met muisjes'
They are usually eaten when a baby is born, blue stands for a boy and pink obviously for a girl. n_n


Okay here's the last one, i'm getting freaking hungry out here, it's 1:34 a.m. here XD
This is a 'Kaassouflé' , and yeah... its filled with cheese, can't describe it.


So if you ever come to holland, at least try one of these treats next to the Cheese, Stroopwafels, Bitterballen, Kroketten, Patatje Oorlog, Tompoucen and all those stuff XD. Damn we have strange food 8D!

OMG HUNGRYY

in the fridge my mom puts them on the table and then i snatch them away ghehehe
hmm a tip put the stroopwafel for 25/30 seconds in the microwave JUMMIE

I spent three nights in Amsterdam last week and found a couple of places (probably not very Dutch haha) which I really really enjoyed...


De Bakkerswinkel, was so good we went there three times and bought some a couple of jars of their jam.



The apple pie was impressive! as were the variety of jams on offer...


The interior...






Another favourite spot was The Pancake Bakery, though unfortunately couldn't try any as I have a wheat intolerance...

Poffertjes




what I had to settle for...


Burgermeester, where I had to settle for a burger without a bun...



and a side portion of baked potato and creme fraiche


Also went to De Zotte where they had a wide range of Belgium beer and some local snacks?



fries (or as we call it chips) and mayonaise... mmm...


Lastly this kinda reminded me of Tokyo...

^ Me being from Amsterdam didn't even knew we had a Pancake Factory... Where was it located o___o?? I wanna go check it out! Nice pictures btw, thank you for sharing =D

My mistake it was The Pancake Bakery. They have a website, http://www.pancake.nl/ My friend who's a local recommended it to us. Apparently their hot chocolate with baileys and cream is meant to be really good too ! Seemed popular with both tourists and locals, which is a good sign I guess

Haha er yes, because I don't stay in Netherlands, so my friend sends it to me.... I have to keep it in the fridge so that it can last longer? XD Tastes just as good!

ooh ive never seen dutch food before!
Please post more pictures!

the most appetising right now are those cheese-filled fried things. yum!
are most famous dutch foods desserts??

The tompouce, Slagroomsoesje, Moorkoppen are i guess the most dutch deserts out here as far as i know XD.
Sure we love pie and cake too 8D! Everything that includes whipped cream out here in Holland = GOOOOOOOD.

Omg you guys need to stop posting picture of Dutch food, it is making me hungry GRrrr! XD stopp it lol. >________<

my dutch coworker introduced these to me, so good! ironically though the best ones i've had were from a starbucks in HK. it's chewier and softer whereas the ones she helped me buy are a bit harder and thicker

thanks everyone for posting pictures!

My mouth was watering...

oh man...i'm so hungry just by looking at those...i hope i can visit so i can try them all...heheh...

We just got a new Dutch supermarket near where we live! It's tiny, but they've got the MOST WONDERFULL STUFF!!!
And they've got like, a whole isle dedicated to diferent brands of Stroopwafels!!

I have to try some of their other stuff too. There's alot there that i havn't heard about before, so i'm egar to go buy stuff from them to try it!

Should I run over to the store now and buy some Stroopwafels?
mmmm... hungry...

Some more pics and info;

Poffertjes:


Miniature pancakes with LOTS AND LOTS of powder sugar and a piece of butter.
It's sooooooooooooo delicious. My parents used to take me to a pancakehouse where
they served the best poffertjes i could imagine, i still go there sometimes lololol.


Oliebollen:



No one posted a pic of them yet! I have no idea how to describe it but its mainly just
a little ball of dough (or how my mom likes to call it, pancake batter but thicker)
which is deep fried and with powder sugar on top of it. Some of them have raisins inside
but i prefer them without. It's like the official snack of 'New Year's Eve' but lots of people also eat 'm before
new years eve of course because they're too damn good . We even have special stands for
them, they appear during the winter around october and stay until january. Some of them stay the whole year.


Zeeuwse Bolus

They are also made of bread dough with alotttttttttt of syrup,
sugar and some cinnamon on top of it. They make me kinda nauseous
after i ate one.


Bossche bollen

They are like the moorkoppen and roomsoesjes we mentioned but covered in chocolate.
Veryyyyyyyyyyyy tasty.


Pepernoten

Ahhhhh... every dutch person loves pepernoten, if i'd translate them it would
be 'pepper nuts' lolmao. Okay explanation; we have a holiday in holland called
Sinterklaas. It's like a 'child's day' , every (little) boy or girl puts their shoe on the night
of december 4th in front of the fireplace and finds a present in it the next morning.
Sinterklaas is like Santa, but different. Kids also put a carrot in their shoe for Sinterklaas'
horse XD. Ahhh the good old days, but when you turn 11/12 your parents tell you that
Sinterklaas doesn't excist... because they're actually 'Sinterklaas' and putting those presents
in your shoes. And from that day on you wont get any presents anymore. Damn it!
It wa always my fav holiday... T_T I wish Sinterklaas still visited me, but i'm too old..
Anyway, during Sinterklaas we eat pepernoten, i could explain what they are but i can't.
Cuz it's kinda hard, just believe me; they are soooooooo delicious!


Taai Taai

I never ate it, or maybe once but i didn't really like it. We also eat
these things during Sinterklaas.


So these are kinda our other sweet stuff 8D.
If you want more, just scream and i'll post a crapload of other things .

Ah~ Dutch food : D

Boterkoek.

Bamibal

Nasibal



Stampotten : D

Wow, my mouth watered just from looking at the pics..

Even though I'm part Dutch, my ancestors have lived in the USA for over 150 years. The only Dutch food I've tried (and liked) is french fries with mayonnaise.

Mayonnaise is from Belgium...

You also have Dutch "Hollandse" Mayonnaise, which is sweeter.
Mayo from Belgium tend to be more sour.

yes, but Belgian invented Mayonnaise... so technicaly it's Belgian...
You guys can have Fritsaus XD (which I love, btw)

slagroomsoesjes arent only available in holland, you can get them almost everywhere in europe and in the states, they call them profiterroles or creampuffs!
i dont like them when theyre all warm and soft, i like to put them in the freezer and eat them when theyre almost completely frozen..yum^



i also love to eat kroket or bitterballen yes and my fav dutch junkfood is fries with curry, mayo and lots of onions! i do like belgium fries.. i live close to the border of belgium and holland and sometimes we go to belgium to eat their delicious fries!

what do u guys think of western/dutch chinese food? like babi pangang? haha

^ yea, when i went to Amsterdam I saw a lot of Flemish Frites. So I think Dutch people really do like our chips.

mmmmm oliebollen, reminds me of x-mas...

^^
I love the dutch/chinese food, me & my dad always order it.
Tjow-Min all the way. And yeah Bitterballen are delicious, they're
so much easier to eat than a kroket. I usually can't even finish a kroket..
But i'm more of a Frikandel person anyways.

Some more (junk)food;

A plate of french fries with a 'frikandel'.


Bitterballen!


And one of my personal faves; Kipcorn! (Kip means chicken.)

Drooling right now ...^I love bitterballen and french fries speciaal yummy...I'm actually surprised I haven't eaten french fries for about a year now.... lol last year I decided to lose some pounds and live a healthy lifestyle without junkfood and soda..gotta say it totally worked!
