For eating a tompouce, there are 4 well known options. 1. the easy way, just pick it up with your hands and go for it. 2. split the tompouce horizontal into 2 pieces, and flip the top and put it on top of the other one. 3. seperate the top part from the part below and eat the side below seperate from the side on top. 4. eat the middle part the first, thenn the rest . There are som variations but those are common. At the birthday party if you can choose from different kind of cakes and you want to have it easy sitting on a chair in a cirkle.... Dont pick the tompouce, dont pick the Bosschebol and dont pick the fruit patries with the hard bottom... :)
An other nice holiday parc with a lot of activities out and indoor Sportlandgoed in Zwartemeer Canadian Wood Cabins Or interesting to visit Smal spoor museum in Erica with lot of little trains and the history of peet (Nice in the summer)
Great vlog. Thank you so much. Reminded me somewhat of you guys going to Schiermonnikoog. The Netherlands are a densely populated country but there are a few places left where you can enjoy the sound of silence and Drenthe is one of them. Looks like you came unprepared not only for the roasting of the marshmallows but also for your visit to the local Albert Heijn. No boodschappenlijstje? I'm sure Nate is a great cook but this dinner did not comply with our sacred Schijf van Vijf. The dessert was awesome though! You should trademark it. Because it is so quiet and and dark and silent in Drente, astronomy is a big thing there. Especially nowadays, the days of SETI. The search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligent life. Serious questions: do you think there is life on other planets? Have you got any idea how many other planets there are? What would be the implications be of a discovery of life elsewhere? You may not realise it, but Drenthe is playing a big role in this quest. But in the end, all that matters is that the dog and Katrina are happy. Have a nice day.
Nate replying... Katrina left me this week for California... New Duthc word aquired... boodschappenlijst. Almost German in it's mash up of words. ; -) I grew up obsessed with space. Had telescopes, books on astronomy, the whole thing. I am very hopeful that other intelligent life is out there. Hopefully they are more evolved and more peaceful that what we have going on here on Earth. I would love to see us discover something big that would really make some people question themselves and their beliefs! Thanks as always, and have a good one!
i actually grew up in Drenthe, you pronounce it as DREN (this part is correct) and the "THE" is pronounced as "UHHH" making it "Drentuhh" like the uhhh sound when you are thinking. edit: You dont eat tompoes 'normal' but the easiest way is splitting it in half and eat each side, or cut of the top and put it at the bot,
Drenthe is beautiful!! You could find some wild animals like wolves over there, they are living in Drenthe. Have fun in the Netherlands! You should be in Limburg or Noord Brabant now and celebrate carnaval, sort of Mardi Gras, but then 3 days long!
If you went to the other park with a series of telescopes. There you also find a path that leads you along the planets of our solar system. They are around the same place of the WW2 camp if Westerbork. Did you try the local treat of Drentse droge worsten? A Dried meat sausage.
Ah! Sad we missed the others! Nate has had the Drenthe sausage before... tasty! We actually really wanted to try the local Drenthe sheep cheese, but it was all gone at AH that night.
Ah, nice! We took a road trip around part of southern Australia a few years ago and absolutley loved it. We wish we had more time. Would love to go back and explore more!
Best way to eat tompouce (without taking the top off): Turn the tommyboy a quarter (90 degrees) so the glacing part is vertical, as so is the bottom ... (you see the pudding side on top). Then you can cut with a knife thru the pouce downwards thru the pastry without the pudding running out (making bitesize parts)... You can use fork or hands to put bitesize parts in mouth... chew... swallow... repeat.....
Thanks! Editing is done in Davinci Resolve. The free version is really amazing. We did update to the paid suite a while back and found that it renders a bit faster.
Oh cool- thanks for the reply. I’m editing our videos right now on DaVinci Resolve and wondered about the paid version value for a small UA-camr if we upgraded.
Drenthe? My grandmother came from the veenkoloniën over there, arguably the poorest region in the Netherlands. Born in a house made from peat bricks. Traditional (poor man's) Drenthe dishes include brown beans, bacon and potatoes.
Hi guys. Just a tip. If a dutch word ends with the letter D, pronounce it like a T. If the word starts with the letter D, pronounce it like a D. I know 😂😂 Nice video's btw, you guys crack me up❤
Nieuw Amsterdam in deepest peat colony country. I used to live in Drenthe as a teenager, not far from Emmen in fact, and I left as soon as I could, at 17. Drenthe is horrible
How do you eat a Tompoes? Just the top cake first and then the bottom cake. Why do you make such a mess of it? By the way, that yellow is called pudding.
You can also scrape the yellow pudding with a spoon or fork when you have eaten the top cake and then eat the bottom cake. It's all about enjoying yourself while drinking coffee and being busy. For us it is a pleasure to see tourists busy with a Tompoes hahahaha. That their nose is completely covered in whipped cream and pudding Or that they take a bite and the pudding pops out between them. So funny.@@nateandkatrinadotheworld
there is no special way to eat a tompouse even we dutch make a mess, but the way i eat it is the best way there is. put the tompouse on it side then cut it down the middle in its length, if you do it correctly you will have two biscuits with both of the half with cream.
Drent-uh 😉
We are sorry. ; -)
Yes, that's the countryside. People are friendly. This is why we often say, Amsterdam is not the whole netherlands
I would say The Netherlands is not Amsterdam 😊
Tompouce tip? take the top of and stick it underneath, maybe that helps.
This seems to be the answer... much appreciated!
For eating a tompouce, there are 4 well known options. 1. the easy way, just pick it up with your hands and go for it. 2. split the tompouce horizontal into 2 pieces, and flip the top and put it on top of the other one. 3. seperate the top part from the part below and eat the side below seperate from the side on top. 4. eat the middle part the first, thenn the rest .

Good tips! Thanks for watching!
Tompouce: first eat the top thin layer.. and then the rest of it (bottom with filling
An other nice holiday parc with a lot of activities out and indoor
Sportlandgoed in Zwartemeer
Canadian Wood Cabins
Or interesting to visit
Smal spoor museum in Erica with lot of little trains and the history of peet (Nice in the summer)
I think we have that musuem on a big list of things we need to see! Thanks for the tips!

nice video again, very nice cabin you went, very cosy, erg gezellig
Thanks Peter!
Guess who was in Nieuw-Amsterdam too? Vincent van Gogh!
Ah nice! We still think the Van Gogh musuem is our favorite art museum we have been to.
Mooi da'j d'r waar'n! We're sorry for Nieuw Amsterdam.
The sound of silent, Beautiful❤
Tompouce.... slice the cream in half with the fork. Eat the top and bottom half separately, just using your hands.
You two are so fun! Thanks for the adventure.😁
More to come!

edit:

It would be "dren tuh" for English pronunciation
Drenthe is beautiful!! You could find some wild animals like wolves over there, they are living in Drenthe. Have fun in the Netherlands! You should be in Limburg or Noord Brabant now and celebrate carnaval, sort of Mardi Gras, but then 3 days long!
We have heard all the stories of the celebrations! We will miss it this year.. but maybe in 2025!
With a little ‘luck’ you could’ve stumbled on a wolve there. For the awesome animal bonus list thing. But a deer is also pretty awesome, I guess 🤷🏻♂️
Those “stroores” (stroopwafel smores) are genius!
We gotta work on the name a bit... : -)
Yeah, my "stroores" contribution sounds like a medical rash. Maybe "smafel"?@@nateandkatrinadotheworld
If you like windmilling, check out Floor Jansen/Nightwish. ;-)
Meppen, near Coevorden (translate Ox-ford)

You could've had a close encounter with a wolf -- a pack even. Then again, unlike deer in an enclosure, they mostly shy away from people.
Nobody told us there were wolves! Our dog would not have been much help...
vanilla slices they are called vanilla slices down here in Australia
Ah, nice! We took a road trip around part of southern Australia a few years ago and absolutley loved it. We wish we had more time. Would love to go back and explore more!
Take good care off the dog, theres wolves there
You could have visit the Westerbork WW2 concentration camp museum, far more interesting than Nieuw Amsterdam🤔
You are likely correct! We had to keep the doggo with us, so we needed quick stops or places we let him join us.
Nice place enjoy Cheers 🥂 😎👍🏻
Thank you! Cheers!
Damn, you just invented MD's newest Dutch burger "The SW Burger" :-)
Definitely not Dren-theee. Dren-tuh.

Probably should go buy some more to test this out. : -)
Flip it on its side. Eat. No mess.
😊😊
What editing suite do you use for your videos? Great video as always!

Some really beautiful land out there!
If you’re looking for wildlife , there are a lot of wolves nowadays in Drenthe. So be careful with your dog nextime ;)
We have heard that since we posted this video! That's a bit scary, but also cool to know about wild wolves here!
Dutch double oo.... pronounced like boat, not boot.
NEDERLANDSE MENSEN ZIJN LIEVE MENSEN.
Agreed.
Oke, please stay in amsterdam.
Why so mean?
Hi guys. Just a tip. If a dutch word ends with the letter D, pronounce it like a T. If the word starts with the letter D, pronounce it like a D.
I know 😂😂
Nice video's btw, you guys crack me up❤
Thanks! We are really bad at it.. and then on camera, knowing peopel will watch... so much PRESSURE! Ha... Thanks for laughing along!
There is no right way to eat a Tompouce. It’s messy.
But... sooooo... tasty!
Try to pronounce it as: DuhWing-ul-dur-felt
Nieuw Amsterdam in deepest peat colony country. I used to live in Drenthe as a teenager, not far from Emmen in fact, and I left as soon as I could, at 17. Drenthe is horrible
That robot voice is not how you pronounce it. Dren-tuh. Stress the first syllable.
That's why we thought it was so funny... You CANNOT trust the Internet.
@@nateandkatrinadotheworld You can trust Cunningham's Law though....
Meppel, not Meppen.
It was Meppen. Promise. It’s tiny. Due east of Meppel about 40km.
@@nateandkatrinadotheworld Congratz! One is never too old to learn. I HAVE been to Meppen, Germany!
@@reneolthof6811 : Me too, I had never heard of Meppen in Drenthe.
You only missed the only castle in drenthe 🫣 and the hunebedcenter.next time 👍😉
For sure! We couldnt' take our dog.... and couldn't leave him at the cabin... so a bit restrained. Thanks for watching the video!
How do you eat a Tompoes? Just the top cake first and then the bottom cake. Why do you make such a mess of it? By the way, that yellow is called pudding.
I guess because it’s just kind of a messy dessert. 🤷🏼♀️
hahahahaha So if you eat it like we Dutch do, you don't anymore. Eat seasy for next time.@@nateandkatrinadotheworld

Take the top off and put it on the bottom. Enjoy your tompouce. Now I want one😂
