The Belgian Food Vlog SPOILER French Fries Are Not Really French 😱
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 сер 2024
- Brussels Belgium, the Capital of Belgium and Europe as well. In todays vlog we are going to try out the second best thing in Belgium and that is the Belgian food (Beer is first). The word French fries immediately would make anyone think that French fries are French however that is not the case. The truth is that the people of Belgium were the first to invent them and take great pride in making fries. Now lets be honest almost every country has potatoes or imports them and can make French fries however the people of Belgium take great pride in doing this to perfection.
It all starts with breeding the best potatoes and have them fresh cut every morning to make the perfect fries. Second is well I'm not going to translate the whole vlog on here so lets just dive into the video and see the truth about where French fries originated and what makes them so special in Belgium.

It's seems that the french fries has extraordinary different taste. Love from Kolkata, India.
It does!
@@VolpeWhereAreYou please revisit India 🤗🤗😊
@@parijat1126 being Indian you have shown your real image by insulting towards other culture

As a soccer fan I give you a quiz,...
Which ground, stadium, team are Ronaldinho, Mourhino and Thierry Henry describing?
Ronaldinho " the best atmosphere in world football",
Mourhino " old Trafford is a little quiet,.. I mean,.. Its no Fr***** pa**,
... Henry " the fans here put shame to the San Siro,.. The best fans, the atmosphere is intense"...
As a Belgian, if my fries aint fried in beef fat, Im not eating it 😂
What’s the difference I love fries patatje oorlog with onions and peanut sauce or plain chips with mayo or mustard 😋
@@xenaburg2362 thats dutch
Yh lol same zelfgemaakte frieten als mijn moeder da zegt dan huil ik
@@xenaburg2362 peanut sauce is just the dutch way to rape our food
@@metalovermatter4045 it is rape but it’s not bad at all. Especially in combination with mayonaise. 🤪
I dont like it when you get less views because your content doesn't includes something Indian. Your vlogs are good it doesn't matter if it is Indian or not.
It's all good brother, I love doing what I do
Insider🤣🤣
Lots of indian coment here just check it 🙏❤️
I don't think it's like that. It's just that they have great videos throughout India and have successfully gotten a lot of subscribers from there, and its definitely not a bad thing. As they travel more they'll get more and more subscribers from other places/interests. I for one love watching Carlos' food vlogs. It's what I watch at lunch to make my food taste better 😄
I m india and watch his vlogs whether it's is india or other
Samurai sauce is just yumm!! You should have also tried a Kapsalon(fries, meat, onion, sauce, cheeese) while you were in NL. In Flanders in Belgium there is also the fries with stew (frietjes met stoofvlees).
Thanks for the tips!
Volpe, you need to try frites with stoofvlees , litte moyonaise on it...
Frieten met stoofvlees... "Frieten" not 'frites' 😁
I,m from Belgium and French fries are the small ones you get in a Mc. Donald's. .We call them here "pomme Allumette". The Belgian fries are bigger and more then an inch thick.
Actually, potatoes come from Peru and so does the method of frying them. Or at least frying them is a longstanding tradition there.
That's the comment i was looking for!
👍👍
Are French fries French or Belgian? This question always makes me smile because it's after all purely... American. In French fried potatoes don't have a nationality anyway, they're simply "pommes frites" or just "frites". The Brits call them chips. I don't know what they're called in Australia and New Zeland though.
Ça vient de Belgique, french fries ne veut rien dire..
3:35 anti-sauce-ci-nator
I am from belgium and i can assure you Just by seeing it that those fries seems really good and done by the belgian way
Damn that place is on my bucket list now🙌🙌
The food looks delicious . I never been to belgium now I could visit and have some Belgium fries.... As you said. They are delicious.....
Fun fact: US McDonalds used to be Tallow (beef fat) fried but health nuts thought that moving to vegetable oil would be healthier. It turned out it’s not.
I miss the old school mickey dees fries.
@@ertfgghhhh
They tasted better and they were healthier. The FDA lied when they said Saturated fats are unhealthy. Your brain *requires* saturated fat to function properly otherwise you could develop many brain related ailments, dementia, Parkinson's, epilepsy etc. Hence the Keto diet (high fat) is recommend for people that suffer from these things.
Trans fat however should be avoided 100%. Unforntunalty that is what fast food in America uses now. Hydrogenated vegetable oils. Hydrogenated Fat = Unsaturated fats with hydrogen added to increase the melting point and convert them into solid trans fats for the purpose of long term shelf stability and ease of storage.
The beef fat is actually ox fat to be more precise. This is more traditional also in The Netherlands but because frying in saturated animal fat is not allowed anymore in commercial settings (probably since the 90s already) you won't find it anymore in The Netherlands. Great you were able to get a taste in Belgium because it is quite special and I still know Dutch people who fry in ox fat at home. The fat is solid at room temperature so you buy it in blocks in a box. I still remember as a kid how we had to wait for it to melt before we were able to put the basket in the frying pan. I was quite fascinated by that.
Now about the origin of French fries, nobody really knows. But every Belgian will tell you their country invented it. It's quite funny really. 😜 I personally believe Spain is the more obvious place of origin. Potatoes arrived from the new world around 1500 and Spain was the first and about a century ahead of the rest of Europe with incorporating the potato in daily diet. So the Spanish had a pretty long head start and since they still today have their own ways around patatas frittas and patatas bravas (which I believe is also the reason why we shortened that name to patat in the west of The Netherlands) I think it's very plausible that neither France nor Belgium were the first. Perhaps they were the first to cut the potatoes in even, thinner strips or bars and then the world took it over from there who knows. But I'm sure Europeans have been frying potatoes for 5 centuries already and simply according to geography it just doesn't seem plausible that they only started frying potatoes as they reached northern France or southern low countries (present day Belgium).
But it doesn't really matter as long as it tastes good. 😎
if you go to belgium again, maybe you should try a bicky burger, a burger invented by the company who make different snacks you can get at a local "frituur"
Oh my god, the best "frituur" burger in Belgium :)
I was kinda sad he ordered the mitraillette, as for me it's a gimmicky food that most belgians don't consume. Most people just order french fries with mayonaise or some other sauces, and then a load of different meaty snacks like "boulet", "bitterbal" "curryworst" "stoofvlees", etc. That doesn't take away that it's very delicious and a filling meal!
@@mhelsen6764 true! I often see people eating Belgian food while I’ve never seen it before
I just now see your videos where you're visiting my country. Deep frying in beef dripping is the traditional way of making fries in Belgium and this gives the best taste and extra crunchiness but because it's made from animal fat it's less healthy than plant based oils. For this reason coconut oil is also used a lot nowadays (it's the healthiest oil, and people really have become more aware of their health and being fit).
More info about what's special about the Belgian fries here: ua-cam.com/video/HW4dmXrrwIY/v-deo.html
It's a french chef who brought the fries in N.Y. Sometimes on video I see in the States, the french flag on cheese, pastries when they're Belgian, just like songs sing in french but they are Belgian singers.
your videos always make me so hungry. the food looks soo good :)
Do you love pork?Mohammad used to love pork and then using Allah he used pig as a disgrace and forbidden item, what a cheater rapist Mohammad was
first to watch
loveyou buddy from india
I love his pride..it’s beaming when he hands you the food.
Stewed Beef sauce and Mayo, that's the basic Blegian fries sauce, topped with Saté kruiden! But I do love myself some Andalouse!
I was fortunate enough to visit that same shop this year and have the mitraillette.
It was so good. Would definitely recommend it.
Make sure you're hungry because it's very filling.
Hello,
I am from Belgium and we have learned the following story in school from our history teacher.
The fries originates from Belgium, more precisely, the first written evidence of the fries was found in Belgium, in the region around the city of Liege.
There they already fried the fish from the river Maas. When Columbus returned from America with the potatoes to Europe and these were then gradually cultivated everywhere, there was a cook in the area who tried to make everything possible from the potatoes and who write all recieps down in a book.
This book is apparently the first written record of the fries.
People in this region carved small fish out of the potatoes and fried them like the fish. This is apparently how the fries was born.
So the fries was invented in today's Belgium, but at that time it still belonged to France, as Belgium did not exist then, Belgium only exists since the year 1830.
But the reason why the fries is called French Fries in English seems to be different according to our teacher and that was because of the Americans. The American soldiers got to know the fries in Belgium, but because French was spoken there, they thought they were in France.
What many people don't know (everyone associates it with American jazz music) but the saxophone was also invented by a Belgian, Adolf Sax, who was born in Dinant, a beautiful little town in the Belgian Ardennes.
Do you think that in South America, where the the potato comes from, long before it ever arrived in Belgium or Europe, that it was never cut up and fried in grease or animal fat. Fries originated in Peru or Bolivia.
@@milmascars that of course absolutely correct, probably it´s like you say.
they say they where invented in Belgium because here you have the real first written proof and because the Belgians made the fries famous in Europe, specialised the preparation and made it part of there own culture....
It seems that Pizza was invented in China, but everybody say Pizza is italian because they cultivated it.
Once upon a time McDonald's used beef talo for frying fries. They were incredible. Far tastiest than the fries now.
Wooooow!! That looks heavenly!! That machine gun sandwich looks hell of something to try!! The sauces look amazing!!!! The fries look unique and amazing!! Beef fat does give a great taste I feel. Even in Kolkata in some places where they sell beef biriyani they use beef fat!! People say it tastes great!! Well enjoy your time n stay safe both of you!!
My mouth watered after seeing the thumbnail
It's the beef fat that makes it all the different.
Finally you guys know we belgians created fries in belgium we say frieten
Yeah the german side
But not in the french belgium
Fries come from where the potato comes from South America !
I kept hearing ‘the good the bad and the ugly’ being played in the background 😄
I was thinking to give a restaurant in US and the food will be made with ghost chili🤣🤣🤣 I think Volpe will have it 🤭
Not sure... But heard that when French invaded Belgium and they loved the fries there.. they took the recipe and spread it in the world. So it was named french fries.
True storie is that, during the second world war americans were eating fries in belgium but in south belgium we speak speak french they called it french fries.
@@bujarahmedi94 that we also heard here in the Netherlands, so I'll go for this version to :)
Actually they fry potatoes in peru way before they even had potatoes in Europe
Looks amazing..I really like ur vlogs..really good content..keep it up buddy👍
Cool vlog as always👌🤘
Glad you enjoyed
@Volpe I know you usually be traveling to different places around the world and you've already been to India.. But this video is of himanchal.. A place up in North India.. If you plan to come again to India.. Do visit himanchal and Uttarakhand.. 😀😀 ua-cam.com/video/fApRbe5vfyA/v-deo.html
Best fries I’ve tried in the US is at Gene and Jude’s in the Chicago burbs. Also fried in beef fat and never frozen.
Mouth Watering....I think I have to book a ticket to belgium
Preetiii ?? Is that you ? It's me suvi .... Know me ?
Love from india
Why do you love potatoes so much 🤣
Same like why Philippino s like rice so much, lol.
If you are in belgium again you should go to a small town for fries or other local food. In brussels everything is toeristic and way more expensive. Also the menu of the frituur (fries shop) are way bigger, like we have 20+ diffirent meat snacks you can eat with the fries.
Ikr! My sister used to live in Brussels and has always told us they’re not nearly as tasty as the ones in small towns
Eats a 3 dish indian meal with sauces and rice with his hands, and then eats the fries with a fork haha aweseome!
90 PERCENT FANS ARE FROM INDIA.. SPECIALLY BIRIYANY LOVERS WORSHIP CARLOS AS THEIR KING OF BIRIYANI KINGDOM

Hey Carlos been following you from your old kolkata vlogs
Big fan from India

So the potato is also important. It is a certain type of potato that is used. Also beef fat is used and they are fried twice for an exact time for a certain taste. :)

Love from India🇮🇳
Whoa. Beef fat fries. Come to Papa!!
Local Belgian/Dutch restaurants where we live serve cones of those original frites with a bunch of dip sauces. That and a bucket of mussels and you are set!!
the beef fat makes the fries unbelievable, not only that they are fried 2 times, whereas in france only once with regular oil
However nice vlog mouth watering content......love u bro from Kolkata,India
muscles in brussels?!
Where the beer reviews?!?!
also, hehe de heat... hehe
My favorite city Brussels ❤️
Belgium is French State. It is French fries, from French State called Belgium.
Its vada pav like food of India. Vada is also cooked from potatoes with spices and served in pav( bun) like this fries are served in bun.
I LOVE me some vada pav, specially in Pune and Mumbai
@@VolpeWhereAreYou Ya really Vada Pav of Pune and Mumbai are very tasty and mouthwatering.
I like it with onions and jalapeños and a drizzle of vinegar
Awesome video as always. Love from Kolkata.
Volp that’s true however the best fries are the ones served with a spicy chettinad chicken curry sauce
Nice background music from the good the bad and the ugly. 😁😁
Usually they’re fried in vegetable oil nowadays instead of beef fat
7:00 ... Theme music of the Good , the Bad and the ugly .
Slipping in the part with the sanitizer.covid beware volpe is here💥😂
Deep frying potatoes in beef fat!?!! ...guaranteed cardiac arrest!
the nr one to eat is fries with horsesteak, warm peppersauce and mayonaise on the side. epic.
Nice 👍
for the best fries go to antwerp. and find a frituur. one that has salty peppery stoofvleessaus. not those with sweet sauce. blech.
Love you bro 💖 👍 🙏 ✔️
I have been there. When I asked for French fries, the person got offended and said it's Belgian fries...not french
😂😂
belgium in schoten : frituur het heet frietje. pick a small pack of fries with warme curry. for meat the drumsticks are epic, so is grizzly
France invented fries but the belgian made a better version , however, today everyone eat the french version…the Americans story is a legend
I don't know why people dislike this video..he is just eating delicious french fries 🍟😋🤷🏻♂️😹
Belgian fries ;)
Plz visit himachal pradesh in India , the temperature is very low there, -45 is the lowest temperature
Hi Volpe loads of love guys hope you guys are safe. I have a request next time you come to India try making more time for TELANGANA & ANDHRA PRADESH trust me as a fellow foodie you have not even scratched the surface of the food here. We are not just BIRYANI to offer it's just part of it, you have to try authentic foods here which sometimes beats Biryani. Keep fooding and smiling ❤️
2:55 shocking! Vegetarians can't even have french fries in these restaurants coz they fry their fries in beef fat! Thanks for the info, volpe! Now we know what to expect and avoid while traveling.
Only in Belgium have I seen this, which makes it unique. Most other places use oil
@@VolpeWhereAreYou It's not just the beef fat, it's also the potato which has to be the "Bintje", the beef fat brings out the taste of that potato.
A bit of a shame you didn't try out the classic sauce which is mayonaise. Belgium mayonaise is always a bit sour, acidic, which is great with the fat.
You can still try delicious Belgian fries in the city of Ghent in Belgium. It's a place called "De Frietketel", and everything is vegetarian friendly, so not fried in beef fat. The place even won awards for being on of the best places to buy fries in Belgium. (I'm Belgian btw)
@@jaybee2530 thank you!
Not every fritkot will fry them with beef fat, you can ask what kind of oil they are using. Careful though, they might fry the fries in the same oil as the meat.
Lots of love for you bro from India 🥰🥰 and love yours video ❤️❤️❤️❤️ and stay safe and healthy ❤️♥️♥️❤️♥️♥️❤️
I'm South African and this almost, I mean 80% a Kota lol, just need some Russian, atchaar, special, a slice of cheese and some chip spice and you're good to go.
I eat French fries at free of cost ,in your vlog 😂😂😂😂

Greetings from Assam bro😇 we all love you & Sophie -on behalf of my every family member💚❤️
That dish tastes so good, when are tasting Belgian biryani.

I was stationed in Belgium and I remember eating them
I was at Florennes AB when it first opened and had to travel to Charleroi to a warehouse and l ate Brochette and Frites a lot going back to the AB.
You should go to ANTWERP also its a nice city
the diamond city
Have a good day man....
Glad you liked it man, but have you tasted our fine cuisine.
What's your camera model and price?
Hey Volpe how are you man....next time whene you came in kolkata can we meet?
It's a very well known fact in France that fries are from Belgium. Only in english speaking countries are fries called french fries !!! Like french beans ( green beans in France ) or french windows ( just windows ) or french manucure ( just manucure ) !!!!!
What do you call a Greek salad in Greece?
@@VolpeWhereAreYou french fries ???
@@VolpeWhereAreYou village salad or horiatiki
Es mentira, las patatas fritas son españolas. Los belgas dicen que las inventaron en 1850. Hay documentos históricos en España que las datan en 1629 en el Fuerte de Nacimiento en Chile. Además existe una larga tradición en España de recetas fritas como buñuelos, leche frita, flores de repostería, entre muchísimas otras recetas más y es un contexto clave para entender como ocurrió.
Just FYI, putting the alcohol on your hands doesn't clean them.
Tremendo SANDUCHONNNNNN se ve sabroson cara soson.Ja,ja,jeeee...Enjoe.Good video.
you should try the Hannibal sauce it's my favourite. Definitely visit BRAM's -gourmet frites next time you are in Utrecht
Hi bolpe!how r u?u can india next visit again? Sorry i'm not english speaking
Oh god it looks so delicious,😋 have you tried any chocolate there?
