In March of 1982, I was 18 and on a high school trip. Heidelberg was our first stop. We had a small tour of the castle first then off to our hotel. We had a very interesting hotel and meal that night. But, I will still never ever forget that first view of the castle at night. Walking through the old town area, and at the end of the street maybe one of the most magical things I had ever seen... that castle up on a hill all lit up. Stole my breath... have always wanted to go back. Back then we didn't have camera phones and I didn't get that picture... but, I remember it very very fondly.... My dream.... to return... and yet... here I am...lol... all these later and haven't yet... but, still a bucket list and dream list stop!!!
The plum cake looks awesome. When I was working a a Renaissance Festival there was a food vendor right behind us that was run by a older gentleman who moved from Germany. He made the sausages, buns and pastries he sold. He had the best plum cake I ever had. Honestly everything he made was the best. Unsurprisingly he won best food vendor of the Renn Fest.
I was born in Heidelberg and the food in baden wurttemberg is amazing. Saumagen really doesn't have much stomach anymore but the best ones have some potatoes etc in the stuffing and can be really amazing. Späetzle and sauerbraten are also really common and so much more amazing food!
I lived in the Mannheim area for nearly 18 years. The last time I was in Heidelberg was in 2016 and I cannot explain how much I miss Germany. Heidelberg is spectacular-especially the Weihnachtsmarkt.

Saumagen is minced pork in various grades, pork pieces, potatoes, spices an herbs stuffed in a cleaned out pigs stomached, which then is cooked. You then can eat it like a sausage or fry it. So the stomach is just the casing and there are a lot of variants here in Palatinate 😊
Saumagen sounds great to me, but I am a fan of various kinds of offal. Huge fan of sweetbreads, and I wonder if that is much eaten in Europe. Disgusts most Americans.

First and so far only trip to Europe for work was 2008. Spent almost 2 weeks in Germany and over the weekend my coworker and I went to Heidelberg one day. Visited the castle and walked the bridge. I do not remember us having a meal there, but we may have had a small lunch or snack. I am American and most of my ancestors were German or from nearby areas with German ethnicity who came to the US in the 19th century. So, the entire time I was there, I found the food most enjoyable even if not always familiar. My coworker did not like anything with vinegar it it so he was not as happy! That meal at the end I was feeling hungry looking at it! I grew up on a farm and home-made sausage with intestine casings were something I got to help with as a child.
I'm from United States and German food looks delicious. Unfortunately in the past 50 years most of our German restaurants here in the USA have closed. Fast food, Chinese food, Italian food and Mexican food have taken over.
In central Pennsylvania, we have a lot of German ancestors. Pig Stomach (also called Hog maw) is a popular dish. Ours has more potatoes in it with the sausage meat, and is usually roasted rather than boiled and fried, but essentially the same dish.
I grew up in Heidelberg, moved to Freiburg to study and now I'm living in Austria near Vienna. If the next one is in the Black Forest (Schwarzwald) or even in Freiburg I'm gonna die of being homesick 😭😍😂 Awesome Video ❤ I really enjoyed you guys enjoying the beauty of my home and heart :)
Germany, in the summer, is the perfection of the beautiful,” he gushed. He was especially fond of Heidelberg, where he lived with his family in the summer of 1878. The city was “the last possibility of the beautiful,” he wrote, straining to surpass the superlative he had lavished on the country....Mark Twain
I have lived in USA for over 30 years however I grew up 20 mile away from there. Took my American husband and he loved it. Thank you for posting this. ❤
Thank you for the Saumagen. Bratkartoffeln, Sauerkraut and that kind of dark sauce also belong to my dishes, but Saumagen was new for me. I had to look up for it in the wikipedia. German wikipedia is better than the English one (the English wikipedia claims, that the pork stomach itself is important, whereas the German wikipedia clarifies, that the pork stomach is only used for being filled and then cooked/baked or whatever).
Our former chancellor in Germany, Helmut Kohl, loved pig stomach (probably the Palatine recipe, because he came from this region). Once US president Bil Clinton said: "I remained Helmut's friend- even when he let me eat pig stomach (Sau Magen)!" 😂
If you ascend the hill even higher from the Philosopher's Way (with the epic views), you will find the "Thingstätte", an amphitheater built by students in the 1940s. Right next to it are the ruins of an old monastery. It's a really beautiful place that is, unfortunately, missed out by many tourists. You'd probably need to save an extra day for the exhausting hike, especially if you plan to see the castle as well.
Almost all the damage on the castle was the result of the locals removing stones way back then and not some kind of failure or conflict. I also hated onions, red cabbage and sauerkraut, today I love that stuff....welcome to my home town.
@@thomasoliver354 Not only the castle. The Hotel Ritter is the only house in the old city that survived. The whole old city is filled with baroque buildings.
Just a few remarks: (1) Strange that you fail to mention that the Heidelberger Schloss was in fact a ruin since the 17th century (one of the many visits of French troups to Germany). (2) Saumagen is a dish typical of the historical Palatinate region and commonly associated with the former Chancellor Kohl who came from Palatinate areas west of the Rhine (city of Ockersheim).
@@ekaterinas8796And Oggersheim is an part of the City Ludwigshafen/Rhein the town on leftbank Riverside from the Rhine vis a vie from Mannheim.. And Kohl his Birth town was Ludwigshafen no Oggersheim.. 😊😊
I remember Chancellor Kohl invited Prime Minister Thatcher for dinner and saumagen was what they had. I met Chancellor Kohl, while serving in the US Army at Coleman Army Airfield. His plane landed there and he and his family had flown in. He came over to our hangar and hung out with us for at least an hour. We showed his children our aircraft (Chinooks) and got to talk with him. It was a very memorable experience.
How cool that you started your video on philosophers way! We loved that trek, and did it twice. Heidelberg is my mom’s hometown! My dad was an American soldier stationed there. It’s the town where everything (for our family) began. We visited in 2019 and fell in love with this fairytale city. We will be returning this year. Thanks for the tips.
Oh my goodness, you two. We’re in Heidelberg right now. Thank you for this video. Sitting down right now having some wonderful kuchen from Gundel right now. Danke!
Though my 1st ancestors from Germany came to America in the 1760s, I've traced that paternal line back to 1507 in the village of Gammelsbach -- NE of where you were in this video.
Saumagen is a typical dish of the Palatinate region in south-west Germany. It does not include stomach or other offal. Instead, a meat mixture with pieces of meat, potatoes and herbs is filled into a pig's stomach and cooked. Then it is usually cut into slices and fried in a pan. Thus, the pig's stomach is somewhat similar to the Scottish haggis, albeit with a different filling. By the way, you can serve it with either a white wine from the region or a beer. Red wine with Saumagen is rather unusual.
Did a Rhine Aflame tour in the early 80s. Visited the Schloss and saw the giant wine cask. As a teenaged boy into Dungeons and Dragons, it was amazing.
You Have to visit a "Besen" Wirtschaft which is mostly located in the southwestern Area, 40km far from Heidelberg in the Heilbronner Area ! This locations are traditionally runned by Farmers and they aren't opened the whole year, Just for a few weeks. So you Have to watch Out in the local press for opening days. 😎👍
Greetings from Heidelberg, my hometown. I live rather at the beginning of the Hauptstraße, but in the past, our fam lived in the old town and during this time, I went up to the castle a lot more often than nowadays 😂 Was def an interesting watch to see you exploring Heidelberg 😁 Heidelberg is also known as Studentenstadt. Our university is the oldest in Germany and one of the best 👍 Have you guys already been to Schwetzingen and its Schlosspark? It's not that far away from Heidelberg and really worth a visit ❤
Phil, sauerkraut is so good. I've loved since I was a child and I'm 55 now. I really hope you come to enjoy it. Like Deanna I love fermented foods too. Kimchee, Yum! Thanks for the video!
i think it is because they cooked it a little darker that he likes it better. I like to cook sauerkraut in my cast iron pan. takes very little time to get it hot that way. And i like to see some carraway seeds in it. Kuemmel. we put the brats on the charcoal grill. one of our Nascar race staples.
Re : the stomach. Any natural casing sausage is made from intestines of pig, sheep, etc. The stomach is utilized in the same way. They outer surface is lacy white fat. I stuff it or use it the wrap meat for constant basting. It is called CAUL fat, and is highly prized. By the way cow stomach is called Tripe. To me the texture is somewhat like Calamari.
Eure Videos, ob in den USA oder in der EU gedreht, sind großartig. Vielen Dank dafür und macht gerne weiter so. - Your videos, whether shot in the US or in the EU, are great. Thank you for that and please keep it up.❤👍
For a delicious regional dish in the Saarland, you have to try the "Gefillde" mit Specksosse und sauerkaraut (potato dumplings filled with bratwurst filler with bacon gravy and sauerkraut)!
It is true that Heidelberg was one of very few German cities during WWII that was not bombed. The reason for this is very simple: General Eisenhower wanted to set up his HQ in Heidelberg after the conquest of southern Germany and did not want to do this in a destroyed city where the entire infrastructure would first have to be rebuilt. However, this did not happen: Eisenhower remained at his HQ in Paris until the end of the war.
you can serve every wheat beer as a crystal just by leaving out the yeast at the bottom of the bottle. Normally you stuff a pig's intestine to get sausage. If you stuff a stomach, you get a sausage like thing, only larger.
Actually, Saumagen has no parts of a pig's stomach in the dish when it's served. It is potatoes, herbs, onions, cabbage, plus some pork meat mixed together and processed by a grinder, then stuffed into a thoroughly cleaned pig's stomach and cooked in there. Before it will be served, the stomach (which is an encasement only) is cut away and the stuffing is cut into slices. It tastes very good, and one can make slight comparisons with Leber- or Fleischkäse, although there are differences, of course.
My grandparents tell, that there was written "Heidelberg wollen wir schonen, darin wollen wir wohnen.", which basically means, that Heidelberg should be a base for the Americans and should therefore not be destroyed. So it's not by chance, that it was not bombed. Mannheim on the other hand was almost completely destroyed. You should totally have gone to the Vetter just around the corner from where you were. They have great craft beer. What you had was not a regional beer. Still it was fun to see your reaction to my hometown
Saumagen is originally from Rheinland-Pfalz and was the favorite dish of former German Chancellor Helmut Kohl. You can compare it with Scottish Haggis - but in this case I would prefer the German Saumagen.
Because so many people here are saying it wrong, I have to set the record straight. Saumagen is a Palatinate specialty and Heidelberg is the former Palatinate (Kurpfalz) residence (before it migrated to Mannheim and then to Munich after the Bavarian line of the Wittelsbach family died out). Napoleon then gave the areas of the Palatinate on the right bank of the Rhine to Baden because they supported him in the war against Russia. Therefore, the part of the Palatinate on the right bank of the Rhine belongs today to Baden-Württemberg and the part on the left bank of the Rhine (formerly Bavarian) was merged with the Prussian Rhineland and the parts of Hesse on the right bank of the Rhine to form a new federal state, Rhineland-Palatinate.
The leftbank on river Rhineside was after Napoleon Area to give to house Bavarian, because Bavarian King support during the war the Armee of Napoeleon. But this District land region called during the centurys evver ever palatine.. And no other.. And the left bank side of Rhine in this area was is and where ever the Palatine.. Not Bavarian.. The Vor poster kommentator spend with his commentar konfusion, and he declare the fakts not korrekt.. Attentions.. 😮

My family is from waldorf. It is close to heidelberg. The 13 bus took you into heidelberg via heidleberger strasse. Nothing but beautiful memories of heidelburg. At the foot of the hauptstasse, was a wonderful toy store. It had a slide you could slide down from the third floor. We use to visit the dungeon which is off limits now but barbaric items down there. The old bridge was blown up by the nazis as they left for the redoubt. Finally, General Patton died in heidelburg after his car accident. A section of the military base was called Patton baracks. I was in Patton's room where he passed there was a plague. We use to get paddle boats on necker. The goal was not to get hit by the river barges. The world is getting smaller. The heidelberg cement company operated out of Lieman. Now the own all the quarries in wrightstown, bucks county, pa. Great video. Tom o
Ich hab′ mein ❤️ in Heidelberg verloren In einer lauen Sommernacht... Oder Memories of Heidelberg are memory's of you... Look up the lyrics! Or watch the old movie of Heidelberg! Love my hometown ❤Heidelberg❤ Nice Video 👍🏻👍🏻thx
Very beautiful German Town. German food just looks so good to me. I think I could eat it everyday. I think German food and Polish food are my favorite foods I even liked it more than Italian food. Please keep showing us some German food
i do like german and polish food as well, quite similar really. but to me it is Greek and Turkish foods, the whole mediterranean food really. Italy, former yugoslavia, etc. mhm cevapcici... and, then, there is american BBQ, hold on a second! maybe i just like food?
@@uliwehner I could live on German and Polish food and American food and Seafood. I am a big Seafood lover. One day give me a plate of fried scallops or crab cake or a delicious lobster tail and then the next day I'll be very happy with the traditional German meal.
Maisel's Hefe Wiezen was always my fave, but the Kristal I believe was promoted as Kristalklar if that means any difference to you? I liked both types.
FYI: the castle of heidelbergis _the_ scholastic example in the studies of cultural heritage preservation, since it is the focal point of a scholarly debate of two schools of thought of how to treat such heritage: restoration vs. conservation -- obviously school conservation under Georg Dehio won here. In sigh view, one has to conserve _all_ of the history of a building, and even destroyed aspects tell a story, like canon or gun shot holes do, so restoring would remove that aspect of the building. in the same way as it removes time, to feel the weight of years something has persisted is a valuable aspect in his eyes and nothing to expell by making the object look like it was built yesterday. furthermore the question, is a building really still the original building if it consists of more modern material than its original one -- in the worst case also built with modern building techniques instead of the ones used back then? this would make the object impure and unauthentic in his eyes (welll if done as such improperly it would undeniably -- but if one studies the object and applies all the knowledge it gives in its raw state, one can restore it without changing anything, so even future generations can by observing deduce this exact knowledge all the same without any wrong implications)
"Schwitzen wie ein Schwein"... 😂 pigs don't sweat, they can't.. that is why they love mud baths.."Memories of Heidelberg sind Memories vom Glück" - great vid!
It was there where I learned that in the dark ages they used a medicine called Mumia made of powdered Egyptian mummies. I will never forget the feeling I had that moment.
You probably didn't have any pig stomach in your saumagen dish. It get's prepared inside of it and some people like to eat the skin (the stomach and that imo tastes pretty disgusting), but it seems to me you were only served the filling which consists of totally normal meat.
awesome vid ^^ my fiancée and me will travel to heidelberg this august too and your vid was really helpful to get an impression of the city. last year we traveled to bamberg. also a really beautitful city and definitely worth to see ^^ my tip for a next video ^^
I studied abroad in Heidelberg back in the fall of 2008. Love that city and really want to go back someday! Never had the food that you tried though. Hope you saw the monkey as you went across the bridge.
Love your videos! That’s my birthplace and last time I was there was 1991. My Father was stationed in Karlsruhe at the time. I really miss Germany. I’ll be back soon. September and October.
You had Saumagen and this is where things are going south. Or you are going south? :D One could argue about the Preis Leistungs Verhältnis of cake vs ball- I would assume that marzipan and nougat are more expensive than plums.
Also Kassel has several Castles absolutely beautiful, Herkules is one of my favorites with a lot of history. Kassel has so much history my Oma and Opa were from their. I still have some family there.
Please connect the information. Heidelberg became the headquarter of the USA after war. Heidelberg was not destroyed by airraids. Simple as that. I just mentioned that because of your excourse to the war history.
3:50 there has to be some fresh wipped cream on there ... on the Pflaumenkuchen 4 sure ! xD Rhabarberkuchen is in season right now , an Strawberry season started
The pig's stomach is mainly used as sausage casing with Pfälzer Saumagen, similar to the Swabian Schwartenmagen, a kind of brawn. Pfälzer Saumagen is a very regional speciality, but it was one of the favorite dishes of former chancellor Helmut Kohl, who let it serve to Margaret Thatcher, Michail Gorbachev, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton and many other visitors - so are in illustrious company...
The Schnookeloch is one of my go-to restaurants in Heidelberg. But it seems you missed the inside which is full of traditional student items, coats of arms and pictures from different centuries and often of course students wearing their traditional colour stripes and hats themselves. I can only recommend. Same for Mensurstube!
The last time I visited Fulda, we made it a point to dine at the Traditionsgaststtate Bratwurstglockle to try the Pferdeklops. While not the best thing I ever ate in Germany, it was quite good. It's not so easy to find a restaurant willing to serve horse meat these days.
You forgot to purchase and try some Neckarkiesel (sweets looking like pebbles from the Neckar). And also, didn't you see the Rittersprung on the balcony? And don't you know the big barrel is empty because Perkeo drank it all?
Saumagen ist eine Spezialität in der Pfalz. Ich kenne es auch nur unter dem Namen Pfälzer Saumagen. Hier in Heidelberg eigentlich nicht so beliebt. Kenne keinen der das isst
I lived and studied there for 5 years. I have only good memories. You basically got everything you need from a major city but it still is a peaceful town. 😉
Fun fact, when I used to go to the Heidelberg castle there use to be a Torture Museum it was great. Not sure why they removed it but the exhibits were great.
Grew up outside of Pennsylvania Dutch country (Germans not Dutch) and Hogsmaw is a popular dish in the area which is stuffed pigs stomach. I've admittedly never had it because of how it sounded, but watching you try something similar I may not shy away next time I'm in Pennsylvania.
Saumagen was the favourite dish of the late german chancellor Helmut Kohl who originated in the Pfalz (as in Rheinland-Pfalz). To germans it's more lika a sausage - which usually was minced meat filled guts. The onion soup is kind of a ripp-off of french onion soup which also has a slice of bread on top with scalloped cheese. And the best beer in Germany is Pils without any doubt! 😉
Hi, just found your videos - love them!! I’m was born in Germany - in Idar-Oberstein. Have you every visited there? They have the Church in the Rocks and they are the gem stone center of the world. My great uncle was a stone cutter. It’s a very neat place. I haven’t been back since 1967!! At my age and health, I doubt I’ll see it again. Wish y’all would do a video from there sometime. Thank you!
Ps - I make the plum cake also, but without the cream. Mine is on sweet yeast dough bottom and streusel crumbs on top. That helps cut the tartness you were talking about.
The Saumagen does not contain pig stomach, it is just the outer hull of the stomach wich is filled with various ingrediens. The ingrediens and recipe also change from town to town. The hull of many sausages is also made of colon, but before processing, they specialy cleaned and processed, at the end they constist only of a clean collagen version.
Saumagen is made from potatoes, meat, bread, eggs ans spices. It is only boiled in a stomach. After it is well done the stomach is waisted. So you don´t eat a stomach.
The funniest memory I have of Heidelberg is when at my first visit, up at the castle I saw "Bratwurst 5€" (it's probably 7€ now). And my mind was going: Wait! I saw Bratwurst 2,50€ downside. So if I take the cable train 1,30€ up+down, I am saving 20 cent by getting the Bratwurst down there AND get to enjoy the ride? Still the best demonstration fo the principle "location, location, location" I ever had.
I love your videos andcas I am living in Heidelberg it really makes me proud, that you liked it. As Heidelberg is a SUniversity City, the Nightlive an culturell Events are really nice as well Greetings from Heidelberg ❤❤

In central Pennsylvania, we have a lot of German ancestors. Pig Stomach (also called Hog maw) is a popular dish. Ours has more potatoes in it with the sausage meat, and is usually roasted rather than boiled and fried, but essentially the same dish.
That version exists in germany, too. Lots of ways to make similar dishes.
I grew up in Heidelberg, moved to Freiburg to study and now I'm living in Austria near Vienna.
If the next one is in the Black Forest (Schwarzwald) or even in Freiburg I'm gonna die of being homesick 😭😍😂
Awesome Video ❤ I really enjoyed you guys enjoying the beauty of my home and heart :)
I saw a waterfall in the preview, so the next video might be Triberg in Schwarzwald?

Germany, in the summer, is the perfection of the beautiful,” he gushed. He was especially fond of Heidelberg, where he lived with his family in the summer of 1878. The city was “the last possibility of the beautiful,” he wrote, straining to surpass the superlative he had lavished on the country....Mark Twain
I have lived in USA for over 30 years however I grew up 20 mile away from there. Took my American husband and he loved it. Thank you for posting this. ❤
Where were you from?
Thank you for the Saumagen. Bratkartoffeln, Sauerkraut and that kind of dark sauce also belong to my dishes, but Saumagen was new for me. I had to look up for it in the wikipedia. German wikipedia is better than the English one (the English wikipedia claims, that the pork stomach itself is important, whereas the German wikipedia clarifies, that the pork stomach is only used for being filled and then cooked/baked or whatever).
Our former chancellor in Germany, Helmut Kohl, loved pig stomach (probably the Palatine recipe, because he came from this region). Once US president Bil Clinton said: "I remained Helmut's friend- even when he let me eat pig stomach (Sau Magen)!" 😂
Next time when you eat Saumagen you must eat the mustard together with Saumagen not with roasted potatoes.
If you ascend the hill even higher from the Philosopher's Way (with the epic views), you will find the "Thingstätte", an amphitheater built by students in the 1940s. Right next to it are the ruins of an old monastery. It's a really beautiful place that is, unfortunately, missed out by many tourists. You'd probably need to save an extra day for the exhausting hike, especially if you plan to see the castle as well.
That amphitheater was a well known gathering spot for Nazis.
@@michaelwise6264I think Goebbels held a speech there at it’s grand opening
Almost all the damage on the castle was the result of the locals removing stones way back then and not some kind of failure or conflict.
I also hated onions, red cabbage and sauerkraut, today I love that stuff....welcome to my home town.
???? Tilly of France destroyed the castle. The interior was always preserved but in 1979 the stone floors were run down.
@@thomasoliver354 Not only the castle. The Hotel Ritter is the only house in the old city that survived. The whole old city is filled with baroque buildings.
Just a few remarks: (1) Strange that you fail to mention that the Heidelberger Schloss was in fact a ruin since the 17th century (one of the many visits of French troups to Germany). (2) Saumagen is a dish typical of the historical Palatinate region and commonly associated with the former Chancellor Kohl who came from Palatinate areas west of the Rhine (city of Ockersheim).
It is Oggersheim.
@@ekaterinas8796And Oggersheim is an part of the City Ludwigshafen/Rhein the town on leftbank Riverside from the Rhine vis a vie from Mannheim.. And Kohl his Birth town was Ludwigshafen no Oggersheim.. 😊😊
I remember Chancellor Kohl invited Prime Minister Thatcher for dinner and saumagen was what they had.
I met Chancellor Kohl, while serving in the US Army at Coleman Army Airfield.
His plane landed there and he and his family had flown in.
He came over to our hangar and hung out with us for at least an hour.
We showed his children our aircraft (Chinooks) and got to talk with him.
It was a very memorable experience.
I've been there twice and was completely charmed. We ate that round thing at Gundel but none of us were very impressed with it. I would go again!
How cool that you started your video on philosophers way! We loved that trek, and did it twice. Heidelberg is my mom’s hometown! My dad was an American soldier stationed there. It’s the town where everything (for our family) began. We visited in 2019 and fell in love with this fairytale city. We will be returning this year. Thanks for the tips.
Oh my goodness, you two. We’re in Heidelberg right now. Thank you for this video. Sitting down right now having some wonderful kuchen from Gundel right now. Danke!
Though my 1st ancestors from Germany came to America in the 1760s, I've traced that paternal line back to 1507 in the village of Gammelsbach -- NE of where you were in this video.
Saumagen is a typical dish of the Palatinate region in south-west Germany. It does not include stomach or other offal. Instead, a meat mixture with pieces of meat, potatoes and herbs is filled into a pig's stomach and cooked. Then it is usually cut into slices and fried in a pan. Thus, the pig's stomach is somewhat similar to the Scottish haggis, albeit with a different filling.
By the way, you can serve it with either a white wine from the region or a beer. Red wine with Saumagen is rather unusual.
Did a Rhine Aflame tour in the early 80s. Visited the Schloss and saw the giant wine cask. As a teenaged boy into Dungeons and Dragons, it was amazing.
You Have to visit a "Besen" Wirtschaft which is mostly located in the southwestern Area, 40km far from Heidelberg in the Heilbronner Area ! This locations are traditionally runned by Farmers and they aren't opened the whole year, Just for a few weeks. So you Have to watch Out in the local press for opening days. 😎👍
Greetings from Heidelberg, my hometown. I live rather at the beginning of the Hauptstraße, but in the past, our fam lived in the old town and during this time, I went up to the castle a lot more often than nowadays 😂 Was def an interesting watch to see you exploring Heidelberg 😁
Heidelberg is also known as Studentenstadt.
Our university is the oldest in Germany and one of the best 👍
Have you guys already been to Schwetzingen and its Schlosspark? It's not that far away from Heidelberg and really worth a visit ❤
My sons wedding was in Heidelberg this past October it was such a beautiful town! And his wedding and reception were at the castle!
Phil, sauerkraut is so good. I've loved since I was a child and I'm 55 now. I really hope you come to enjoy it. Like Deanna I love fermented foods too. Kimchee, Yum! Thanks for the video!
i think it is because they cooked it a little darker that he likes it better. I like to cook sauerkraut in my cast iron pan. takes very little time to get it hot that way. And i like to see some carraway seeds in it. Kuemmel. we put the brats on the charcoal grill. one of our Nascar race staples.
Re : the stomach. Any natural casing sausage is made from intestines of pig, sheep, etc. The stomach is utilized in the same way. They outer surface is lacy white fat. I stuff it or use it the wrap meat for constant basting. It is called CAUL fat, and is highly prized. By the way cow stomach is called Tripe. To me the texture is somewhat like Calamari.
Eure Videos, ob in den USA oder in der EU gedreht, sind großartig. Vielen Dank dafür und macht gerne weiter so. - Your videos, whether shot in the US or in the EU, are great. Thank you for that and please keep it up.❤👍
For a delicious regional dish in the Saarland, you have to try the "Gefillde" mit Specksosse und sauerkaraut (potato dumplings filled with bratwurst filler with bacon gravy and sauerkraut)!
It is true that Heidelberg was one of very few German cities during WWII that was not bombed.
The reason for this is very simple: General Eisenhower wanted to set up his HQ in Heidelberg after the conquest of southern Germany and did not want to do this in a destroyed city where the entire infrastructure would first have to be rebuilt.
However, this did not happen: Eisenhower remained at his HQ in Paris until the end of the war.
Heidelberg ist einfach meine absolute Lieblingsstadt hier in der kompletten Umgebung!
you can serve every wheat beer as a crystal just by leaving out the yeast at the bottom of the bottle. Normally you stuff a pig's intestine to get sausage. If you stuff a stomach, you get a sausage like thing, only larger.
Actually, Saumagen has no parts of a pig's stomach in the dish when it's served. It is potatoes, herbs, onions, cabbage, plus some pork meat mixed together and processed by a grinder, then stuffed into a thoroughly cleaned pig's stomach and cooked in there. Before it will be served, the stomach (which is an encasement only) is cut away and the stuffing is cut into slices. It tastes very good, and one can make slight comparisons with Leber- or Fleischkäse, although there are differences, of course.
My grandparents tell, that there was written "Heidelberg wollen wir schonen, darin wollen wir wohnen.", which basically means, that Heidelberg should be a base for the Americans and should therefore not be destroyed. So it's not by chance, that it was not bombed. Mannheim on the other hand was almost completely destroyed.
You should totally have gone to the Vetter just around the corner from where you were. They have great craft beer. What you had was not a regional beer.
Still it was fun to see your reaction to my hometown
Fond memories of the Heidelberg Castle.We took the funicular train up to the castle instead of hiking.
Saumagen is originally from Rheinland-Pfalz and was the favorite dish of former German Chancellor Helmut Kohl.
You can compare it with Scottish Haggis - but in this case I would prefer the German Saumagen.
Because so many people here are saying it wrong, I have to set the record straight. Saumagen is a Palatinate specialty and Heidelberg is the former Palatinate (Kurpfalz) residence (before it migrated to Mannheim and then to Munich after the Bavarian line of the Wittelsbach family died out). Napoleon then gave the areas of the Palatinate on the right bank of the Rhine to Baden because they supported him in the war against Russia. Therefore, the part of the Palatinate on the right bank of the Rhine belongs today to Baden-Württemberg and the part on the left bank of the Rhine (formerly Bavarian) was merged with the Prussian Rhineland and the parts of Hesse on the right bank of the Rhine to form a new federal state, Rhineland-Palatinate.
@@egoneiermann-tn7sc Interesting! Thank you very much❣
The leftbank on river Rhineside was after Napoleon Area to give to house Bavarian, because Bavarian King support during the war the Armee of Napoeleon. But this District land region called during the centurys evver ever palatine.. And no other.. And the left bank side of Rhine in this area was is and where ever the Palatine.. Not Bavarian.. The Vor poster kommentator spend with his commentar konfusion, and he declare the fakts not korrekt.. Attentions.. 😮

My family is from waldorf. It is close to heidelberg. The 13 bus took you into heidelberg via heidleberger strasse. Nothing but beautiful memories of heidelburg.
At the foot of the hauptstasse, was a wonderful toy store. It had a slide you could slide down from the third floor.
We use to visit the dungeon which is off limits now but barbaric items down there.
The old bridge was blown up by the nazis as they left for the redoubt.
Finally, General Patton died in heidelburg after his car accident. A section of the military base was called Patton baracks. I was in Patton's room where he passed there was a plague.
We use to get paddle boats on necker. The goal was not to get hit by the river barges.
The world is getting smaller. The heidelberg cement company operated out of Lieman. Now the own all the quarries in wrightstown, bucks county, pa.
Great video.

Nice Video 👍🏻👍🏻thx
Very beautiful German Town. German food just looks so good to me. I think I could eat it everyday. I think German food and Polish food are my favorite foods I even liked it more than Italian food. Please keep showing us some German food
i do like german and polish food as well, quite similar really. but to me it is Greek and Turkish foods, the whole mediterranean food really. Italy, former yugoslavia, etc. mhm cevapcici... and, then, there is american BBQ, hold on a second! maybe i just like food?
@@uliwehner I could live on German and Polish food and American food and Seafood. I am a big Seafood lover. One day give me a plate of fried scallops or crab cake or a delicious lobster tail and then the next day I'll be very happy with the traditional German meal.
Maisel's Hefe Wiezen was always my fave, but the Kristal I believe was promoted as Kristalklar if that means any difference to you? I liked both types.
FYI: the castle of heidelbergis _the_ scholastic example in the studies of cultural heritage preservation, since it is the focal point of a scholarly debate of two schools of thought of how to treat such heritage: restoration vs. conservation -- obviously school conservation under Georg Dehio won here. In sigh view, one has to conserve _all_ of the history of a building, and even destroyed aspects tell a story, like canon or gun shot holes do, so restoring would remove that aspect of the building.
in the same way as it removes time, to feel the weight of years something has persisted is a valuable aspect in his eyes and nothing to expell by making the object look like it was built yesterday.
furthermore the question, is a building really still the original building if it consists of more modern material than its original one -- in the worst case also built with modern building techniques instead of the ones used back then? this would make the object impure and unauthentic in his eyes (welll if done as such improperly it would undeniably -- but if one studies the object and applies all the knowledge it gives in its raw state, one can restore it without changing anything, so even future generations can by observing deduce this exact knowledge all the same without any wrong implications)
"Schwitzen wie ein Schwein"... 😂 pigs don't sweat, they can't.. that is why they love mud baths.."Memories of Heidelberg sind Memories vom Glück" - great vid!
OMG I’m a pharmacist and I NEED to go to that cool pharmacy museum!! I LOVE all the old bottles and stuff!!
I am no pharmacist and find it very interesting. I bet for you it would be incredible.
it is definatly worth a visit, it is not only one pharmacy but several each in its own room representing different times
I think we’re going to visit in November!! I can’t wait already! 😂😂😂
I was there a couple of years ago, and it is very interesting indeed. There's quite a lot to take in.
It was there where I learned that in the dark ages they used a medicine called Mumia made of powdered Egyptian mummies. I will never forget the feeling I had that moment.
Love Heidelberg!! Visited 2 times while we lived in Germany. Lived in Over wild flecked near the Fulda gap.
You probably didn't have any pig stomach in your saumagen dish. It get's prepared inside of it and some people like to eat the skin (the stomach and that imo tastes pretty disgusting), but it seems to me you were only served the filling which consists of totally normal meat.
In the "Saumagen" you don't actually eat the stomach. The stomach is used as a casing for the sausage.
13:54 die suppe ist französisch das brot wird mit käse überbacken (hatte ich während der schulzeit in hauswitschaftslehre) :)
Not a bad job guys. Got a like from me
Explore Chiemsee and the casle on the island.
Great day trip
Schön zu sehen das ihr Spaß hattet.
Nice to see you had fun :)
Thanks for the tip.
We will make a pitstop when we go to Poland on our vacation next year
awesome vid ^^ my fiancée and me will travel to heidelberg this august too and your vid was really helpful to get an impression of the city. last year we traveled to bamberg. also a really beautitful city and definitely worth to see ^^ my tip for a next video ^^
I studied abroad in Heidelberg back in the fall of 2008. Love that city and really want to go back someday! Never had the food that you tried though. Hope you saw the monkey as you went across the bridge.
Love your videos! That’s my birthplace and last time I was there was 1991. My Father was stationed in Karlsruhe at the time. I really miss Germany. I’ll be back soon. September and October.
You had Saumagen and this is where things are going south. Or you are going south? :D One could argue about the Preis Leistungs Verhältnis of cake vs ball- I would assume that marzipan and nougat are more expensive than plums.
Love your show. Have you ever been to Kassel Germany? Very beautiful lots to see, good food.
Also Kassel has several Castles absolutely beautiful, Herkules is one of my favorites with a lot of history. Kassel has so much history my Oma and Opa were from their. I still have some family there.
Saumagen is very typical of the Pfalz around Kaiserslautern. Is is basically a Wurst product stuffed into a pigs stomach. Nothing fancy.
Please connect the information. Heidelberg became the headquarter of the USA after war. Heidelberg was not destroyed by airraids. Simple as that. I just mentioned that because of your excourse to the war history.
3:50 there has to be some fresh wipped cream on there ... on the Pflaumenkuchen 4 sure ! xD
Rhabarberkuchen is in season right now , an Strawberry season started
The pig's stomach is mainly used as sausage casing with Pfälzer Saumagen, similar to the Swabian Schwartenmagen, a kind of brawn. Pfälzer Saumagen is a very regional speciality, but it was one of the favorite dishes of former chancellor Helmut Kohl, who let it serve to Margaret Thatcher, Michail Gorbachev, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton and many other visitors - so are in illustrious company...
The Schnookeloch is one of my go-to restaurants in Heidelberg. But it seems you missed the inside which is full of traditional student items, coats of arms and pictures from different centuries and often of course students wearing their traditional colour stripes and hats themselves. I can only recommend. Same for Mensurstube!
There's a Heidelberg in Melbourne Australia! It's one suburb.
Ahh love the video!!!! Jared’s always wanted to visit Heidelberg to visit the university
My daughter was born in Heidelberg, wonderful city, we lived in Gauangelloch
The city where I was born! I can't deny, that I feel kind of proud. :)
My sister lived in Germany the food was great nothing weird just funny names. Pastries were also great
Great video, you guys! - And I have to compliment the editing!
Loved Hiedlberg, most memorable for was the beautiful view and in the castle the kings toilet shaft on the side of the wall
Great videotography! I almost felt like I was with you.
Pig stomach has always been used as a sausage casing. Beef stomach is called tripe and completly different
Heidelberg!!! My city!! One of the friendliest places in the world. Very Beautiful too. Love you guys!!!! The Irish Bar is mega for food btw!!!!
Saumagen dont need any Sauce! And in Heidelberg you cant get the Original Saumagen. Mustard is a no go….!
Check in the palatina please
Good for you two Heidelberg is beautiful
Was in Heidelburg about 3 weeks ago definitely will go back again very friendly people
The last time I visited Fulda, we made it a point to dine at the Traditionsgaststtate Bratwurstglockle to try the Pferdeklops. While not the best thing I ever ate in Germany, it was quite good. It's not so easy to find a restaurant willing to serve horse meat these days.
You guys are such a vibe!
Great video, the pastries look yummy 😊
You forgot to purchase and try some Neckarkiesel (sweets looking like pebbles from the Neckar).
And also, didn't you see the Rittersprung on the balcony? And don't you know the big barrel is empty because Perkeo drank it all?
Trivia: How many times do Deana and Phil say the world "Barrel" in this video?
LOL... I counted 23
@@devind132 Yes, that was my count as well. 😉
Saumagen ist eine Spezialität in der Pfalz. Ich kenne es auch nur unter dem Namen Pfälzer Saumagen. Hier in Heidelberg eigentlich nicht so beliebt. Kenne keinen der das isst
Loved the Drei times (thumb and two fingers) with the German hand gesture rather than the American (three fingers) 19:43
I lived and studied there for 5 years. I have only good memories. You basically got everything you need from a major city but it still is a peaceful town. 😉
Fun fact, when I used to go to the Heidelberg castle there use to be a Torture Museum it was great. Not sure why they removed it but the exhibits were great.
Grew up outside of Pennsylvania Dutch country (Germans not Dutch) and Hogsmaw is a popular dish in the area which is stuffed pigs stomach. I've admittedly never had it because of how it sounded, but watching you try something similar I may not shy away next time I'm in Pennsylvania.
Saumagen was the favourite dish of the late german chancellor Helmut Kohl who originated in the Pfalz (as in Rheinland-Pfalz). To germans it's more lika a sausage - which usually was minced meat filled guts.
The onion soup is kind of a ripp-off of french onion soup which also has a slice of bread on top with scalloped cheese.
And the best beer in Germany is Pils without any doubt! 😉
Hi, just found your videos - love them!! I’m was born in Germany - in Idar-Oberstein. Have you every visited there? They have the Church in the Rocks and they are the gem stone center of the world. My great uncle was a stone cutter. It’s a very neat place. I haven’t been back since 1967!! At my age and health, I doubt I’ll see it again. Wish y’all would do a video from there sometime. Thank you!
Ps - I make the plum cake also, but without the cream. Mine is on sweet yeast dough bottom and streusel crumbs on top. That helps cut the tartness you were talking about.
I really appreciate y’all 2 both.
Thanks… 💜💜!!
I live in United States and never once have I ever saw bitter dried plums. Go to the produce section and buy fresh juicy plums.
Visit neckarzimmern while your down there. Hornberg castle is worth a visit.
15:08 Pork belly is very popular in the United States. But that may be different than pork stomach? Would someone enlighten me?
The Saumagen does not contain pig stomach, it is just the outer hull of the stomach wich is filled with various ingrediens. The ingrediens and recipe also change from town to town. The hull of many sausages is also made of colon, but before processing, they specialy cleaned and processed, at the end they constist only of a clean collagen version.
That ball dessert looks so interesting! There are so many layers.
Have been to Heidelberg in November 2019 and 2022. Have to go back this year and try the plum cake! Tho NOT the pig stomach .
Saumagen is made from potatoes, meat, bread, eggs ans spices. It is only boiled in a stomach. After it is well done the stomach is waisted. So you don´t eat a stomach.
The funniest memory I have of Heidelberg is when at my first visit, up at the castle I saw "Bratwurst 5€" (it's probably 7€ now). And my mind was going: Wait! I saw Bratwurst 2,50€ downside. So if I take the cable train 1,30€ up+down, I am saving 20 cent by getting the Bratwurst down there AND get to enjoy the ride?
Still the best demonstration fo the principle "location, location, location" I ever had.
I love your videos andcas I am living in Heidelberg it really makes me proud, that you liked it. As Heidelberg is a SUniversity City, the Nightlive an culturell Events are really nice as well Greetings from Heidelberg ❤❤
