In case your mom (or you) still wants to make Sauerkraut: You have to make absolutely sure that none of the cabbage floats up and gets into contact with air. THAT is when it gets mouldy. The salt solution it's suspended in is no suitable host for mould, hence it has to cover the entire surface (usually you put something heavy on top of the cabbage so it stays down). Once the fermenting is done, the Kraut itself will stay edible for a pretty long time because it's so sour. That is why people did it in first place. It was your long term vitamin supply for long winters when fridges were not yet a thing. Please don't eat Sauerkraut after mould grew on it :/
warumbraucheichfüryoutubekommentareeinescheissgooglepluspagefragezeichen hey da hatte wer die gleiche motivation wie ich beim erstellen des (damals) neuen yt/g+ accounts =D i believe i read somewhere that it is, even including turkey, the third largest turkish city in the world
welllllll....i guess it depends on exactly what you mean when you say "Döner". if you're talking only about the cylindrical cone of meat, then it was definitely not invented in Germany. if you're talking about the very specific type of pita sandwich with the very specific accoutrements you get with it in Germany (most notably to me is that gross white sauce), then sure...it was invented in Germany haha because as i said, it's very different in Germany from what I had in Turkey. but when i hear Döner or Döner Kebab i'm thinking of the sandwich/pita that I ate in Turkey which was most certainly invented in Turkey (during the Ottoman Empire). And it's often served with plain or salted yogurt versus that white sauce you get in Germany.
oahkeinbockmehr - Berlin has I think around 180,000 Turks which I believe is by far the city with the highest population of Turks outside of Turkey (that includes both people with Turkish descent and Turkish citizenship)....but Izmir, Turkey (which is where I lived...gorgeous city) has 4+ million Turks and is the 3rd largest city in Turkey. If you look at a list of the most populous cities in Turkey, Berlin would fall somewhere around 36th on the list. Berlin only has a population of about 4 million so for there to be "millions" of Turks in Berlin (which I feel like I've heard maaaaany many Germans say) then the majority of the population in Berlin would be Turkish vs German
Kelly does her thing owh =( now i am dissapointed! How could some random half remembered fact i read somewhere on the internet years ago be wrong?!?! But thanks for the clarification, being fully awake now and my brain kinda functioning (after an entire day of excrutiating heat spent working fully dressed in a lab) i see the impossibility of the numbers ;) oh and that white sauce is tzatziki and the best damn sauce on earth (after ajvar and aioli, but still!). I believe the döner kebab (i always thought the kebab was the name of the meat "cone") was invented as a result of the popularity of greek pita bread, which is realy simmilar to a döner kebab, hence the use of tzatziki, though this is just a guess. The only time i was in turkey i stuffed myself to much on pide (or how ever you call those heavenly bread boats filled with spinach and goat cheese or whatever else delicious things they could find) to try anything else, so i can't compare our döner to the turkish original. Anything else vastly different other than the sauce?
To be honest I always thought there are 540.000 Turks in Berlin, but that seems to be the total number or foreigners. The intersting thing about Berlin is that two thirds of the population does not have any religion.
aw thank you!! :) he definitely knows how to make me laugh. it has taken me months to get him to be in a video with me and he ended up having way more fun with it then i think he expected to so hopefully there will be more to come!
when i was editing this i couldn't stop laughing because of that. i didn't notice him doing that while we were filming haha. and thank you :) i'm very lucky i found him
I honestly was interested in the box for 30s and was about to leave, but you two are just so cute together that i watched the whole video. I regret nothing. Nothing! :)
Your man is just so adorably German... I love it. With his dry humor he wuld fit perfectly into a village in northern Germany. Greetings from just there, Fritzi.
Kelly, if you realy miss the bread that much, you should consider to bake it yourself. It is not too hard. I will see if I find a few recipes for you. German bread made in the USA - sounds like a vlog title :)

@Kelly Does Her Thing the raw local honey to combat allergies is actually an very old remedy. I learned about it from a Native American. Stating the same. You are introduced to a miniscual amount of local flaura due to pollination as well as honey has natural antibiotic/antimicrobial properties and antioxidants to combate inflammation and infection😊
@@Kellydoesherthing Well the best mustard isn't the german one in my opinion. French mustard like in the Elsass is just briliant. But I do agree that german mustard is more spicy than the american one. The very spicy one and the sweet one are the only mustard types I eat.
A famous -Bavarian- brand from Düsseldorf, NRW is Löwensenf, and they have medium hot with the green label and extra hot with the red label (warning sign ^^). As Helloweener said, the latter is made in the same way as Dijon mustard: www.loewensenf.de/sortiment/senf-klassiker/p/loewensenf-premium-extra-scharf.html

Genau das hab ich mir auch gedacht. XD Aber siehs mal so rum. Wenn man in Deutschland ein Paket aus nem anderen Land bestellt, sieht das oft nicht anders aus (würde ich zumindest, dreist wie ich bin, behaupten^^)
Na für und ist es nunmal 0 8 15 zeugs. Für die Amis aber exotisch wie von einem anderen Planeten. Und sind wir mal ehrlich, von guten Essen haben sie doch ohnehin keinen Plan ( was die als Brot bezeichnen oder gar als gutes Bier 🤪)
Als vetstünden die Deutschen mit ihrer uniformen Langweilerplörre etwas von richtigem Bier! 😂 Und deutsches Essen hat weltweit nicht gerade den Ruf, überragend zu sein. Zurecht!
Must do der Spätzle-making Video ! I found Hela Curryketchup and Deutschländer (Wiener MIT Knackpelle !! - guys, google der translate already) in NJ. Grafschafter Zuckerrübensirup only on internet delivery services though. Kelly: I'm certain DC must have at least one German bakery for the expats to get closer to the bread you miss.
definitely must do that video!! hopefully soon :) there's a german market somewhat near here that i plan to take Misha to...it's a bit of a surprise for him so i hope he doesn't read this comment hahah
You wasnt in germany...you was only in "Bayern"! :) I live in Schleswig Holstein and think the most stuff from Bayern is weird and i dont like it. Its not what every german eat or like... it feels like every second american think hole germany is bavarian. IT ISNT. Germany os so much more than Weißwurst and Bier. Bayern is like an seperate country.
Bin der gleichen Meinung. Jeder der sich nicht mit Deutschland auskennt sieht in diesem Land nur Bayern und ihre komische Kultur. Ich bin Schwabe und muss sagen dass unser Essen eins der interessantesten ist aber kein anderer sieht es auch so weil sie halt nur Bayern und ihre Weißwürste kennen 😂
I'm wondering what would go in an American food box for expatriate Americans. Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup, New England Clam Chowder, and Cream of Mushroom Soup. Ranch Dressing. Rice Crispies ...
maybe i will put together an American Food Box for Misha to open and taste everything :) i was able to get him on the peanut butter train while we were still in germany. he hated it at first but now he loves it haha
When I lived in Germany there was an American food importer. I bought a lot of peanut butter, Welch's Grape Juice and Arizona Green Tea. I think I also splurged for Cheetos once.
Hey! My family made sauerkraut - I remember my aunt, especially, making it, and cheese. I grew up on the family farm, so we had milk cows, and our own vegetables from our garden. Lots of Germans moved to the U.S. Midwest. Great video - lots of fun to watch you and your boyfriend interact.
that all sounds really delicious. homemade cheese?? made with milk from your own cows? it's like a dream. i have a friend named Marc who is from Nebraska and has strong German ancestry but I never thought that perhaps this was a popular spot for German immigrants. Thank you very much!! i'm glad you liked it :)
Tennessee here, for the past few years I've been making sauerkraut from cabbage my father grown in his garden, last year he found a "5" crock for me to use since the year before i used a glass jar he uses to make his beer but i noticed alot of mold from that batch and i tossed that away, but i have always skimmed the scum off the top of the sauerkraut while it was fermenting 4-6 weeks, last year i ended up with 14 quart jars and I decided next year if he grows cabbage again i going to try and make kim-chee
Yep, my dad milked the cows in the morning, while I milked the cows (by hand) after I got home from school. We'd skim the cream off of the top. Mom would make butter, and you can't beat it! Yes, Wisconsin and Minnesota have tons of Norwegian, Swedish, and German heritage. My own heritage - my ancestors came to the U.S. in the 1600's, and 1700's, from England (Yorkshire, Cornwall), Wales, Switzerland, Germany, Holland, and France, etc. So, I'm your typical American "Heinz 57 varieties" mix. Thanks for the fun video!
Mold on Sauerkraut means that something went wrong. Done properly there is no mold! Btw. Sauerkraut is also very popular in slavic countries afaik not only a german thing ;) Its also very healthy and has a lot of vitamin C..
Sour kraut is very popular in Romania too. You know the liquid in which stands the cabbage that later transforms it into sour kraut,that is so good to drink,like 50 ml in the morning.....beautiful 👍👍👍 The recipe for our sour kraut is simple,a wood barrel,10-14 cabbages whole(remove the dirt) depends how many can you squeeze into the barrel,fill the barrel add salt on cabbage,then add water and place a big plate or something so that the cabbage would be under the watter and place something heavy on top and cover with that thing from the barrel 😊
ohhh cool! you know, now that you mention it, i think i did have sourkraut in Bucharest with a dish that involved a lot of little mini sausages. there's a very specific name for them but i can't remember it for the life of me right now.
Kelly does her thing I think you mean sarmale stuffe cabbage with minced meat and sour cream. What I wanted to ask you and maybe you will do a video is did you go to a football match in German? I refuse to say soccer,your football is not football,when are you(americans) using the foot to play the game mostly you use your hand 😁
yes!! that's exactly what i'm thinking about. and i also ate that sarmale too!! loved both of them.i went to one football match while i was there and it was quite an experience. it wasn't a huge match so nothing compared to what i would've seen in munich, etc, but still a lot of fun! i've also been lucky enough to be in europe during two world cups which was quite a treat. and i'm going to go watch the match (germany vs sweden) this saturday at a german bar here :) i'm really excited!
With the Tool, Spätzlehobel, you will get some short and round Spätzle. The longer ones are made with a Spätzle-Board. And the long Spätzle are made with a Spätzle-Press. Spätzle have different shape depending where they get made.
When I started your video I was doing something else, so I watched with half an eye and I would swear your BF looked like Stefan from Wanted Adventure (Dana). I wonder if I have seen Mike (Hayley) and if he looks similar.
He definitely sounded like Stefan sometimes and I'm not talking about the pronunciation! And yes, at one point I too thought they look alike (a little at least, when you just see him in the corner of your eyes). I don't see any resemblance with Mike though.
There are kinder eggs in usa now, they just made the packaging different where there is a whole side of the egg with the surprise only encased alone and then the other side is chocolate. I bought some for my kids for christmas this last year.
I live in New York and the th Kinder eggs are for sale in supermarkets and variety stores. They come in many sizes including jumbo. They are usually near the cashier.
I grew up in southern Appalachia eating sauerkraut that my grandmother, who was in no way German, made. There are definitely pockets of America where sauerkraut is extremely popular independent of German heritage or influence.
Hi You can some of the items in the U.S. The mustard in TOPS market NYS . The KNOR sauces . The Schnetzel noodles are easy to find . Their is a lot of speciality store's in the east coast .
The noodles are called Spätzle (or, in Bavaria, Spatzen). The Knorr sauce powder was for "Geschnetzeltes", which is meat strips. And then there is Schnitzel = schnitzel. "Deutsche Sprache, schwere Sprache" :-)
"i'm going to try to start letting my ridiculous personality come out more in my videos so i'm glad you like the start of it :)" You warned us! Another good one from you. Thanks.
Sollen das nicht Apfelküchle sein? Ich habe noch nie Apfelpüfferchen gehört. Apfelküchle sind Apfelringe, die man in Pfannkuchenteig ausbackt und dann in Zimt-Zucker wendet.
i don't know...i just went with what the package said haha this is the product we got - www.oetker.de/unsere-produkte/suesse-mahlzeiten/apfel-puefferchen.html
they aren't modified for your law, thats the german summer version of KinderEggs cause the choclate melts too fast when its warm, so you get it in these cups
@@Kellydoesherthing kinder joy is a new product thats aviable in germany too so the original kinder supridmse you will never find in america and kinder joy has a milk cream with 2 choclate balls thats not kinder surprise
i traveled to the USA to visit my former hostfamily and I had to open all kinder surprise eggs at home ! because one of my friendstold my that she forgot to open them at home and that the TSA through them away
German Döner is amazing. I never have it in the UK but I was walking around Potsdam and only had 5€, grabbed a Döner, chips and drink and wow it is absolutely nothing like the greasy tasteless mess you have in the UK that's covered in chili sauce and jalapeños
Billy Johnson wait. Your Döner is so cheap that you can afford a drink and chips with it? In bavaria, a Döner costs between 3,50€, sich is rare, and 4,50€
20 years ago I had a döner at a place that was awarded the best döner place in Devon (England) and I was hugely disappointed. It tasted nothing like our Döner Pitas here in Germany.
Thats only modified greek Gyros,they use the same rotating Grills that they invented for the Gyros.But they use traditional more Garlik which is not for everyone good.
If it comes to honey, german honey is the most clean, considering meds cause germans do NOT treat their bees with meds before harvest and they usually do NOT pump them with antibiotics till they think everything is dead but it would have bin nice if the package included "Deutscher Imkerbund Honig", it´s easier to open and certified.
Sauerkraut is made with white wine often. Making it with "champagne" is a variation on the recipe. German mustard sold in South Africa in the same mug is generally not very hot. English mustard is generally comparable to wasabi or horseradish. BTW you can drink cold beverages from the mustard mug but be careful pouring hot water in it as it may crack. Great show!
Oh it is a difference what kind of blossoms are used for the honey. Some are only sweet but some also have a slight fruity or herbal taste for example orange blossom honey or fennel honey.
i really can't tell the difference but maybe i'm not trying hard enough to focus on it haha perhaps i should buy some different kinds and do a sort of taste test or maybe find a place that has samples out.
Wow, $50 for about $10 worth of German food. If there is an Aldi grocery nearby, you can find a lot of cheap German foods there, because it is a German owned store. Also, if there is a World Market store nearby, you can find a lot of German as well as other international foods there too, all much cheaper than what you paid for that box.
4:27 I once spoke to a German lady who told me she brought Kinder Surprise eggs back to the States in Pringles cans. She was shocked when I told her they were illegal here. 😄🚔🍫🍬
I am currently a customer and I have had enough..How do I cancel ? There isn't a valid email address to cancel or to make comments. Also the phone number is a message machine. How can I cancel my monthly subscription
US now has a version of the Kinder egg . It's a 1/2 shell of chocolate with krisper ball and the other 1/2 is the toy. I'm not sure where you would find it in DC. You could try Target in VA.
That is called a Kinder Joy. And I am not sure if you are implying that it was designed specifically for the US market, but I think that is not the case. Correct me if I am wrong.
I have a confession to make: I looove Sauerkraut. Sometimes I get up in the middle of the night end eat an entire can. I'm pretty Americanized, but at night my German DNA comes alive. 😂
Then you are Pregnant.Pregnant Women need folic acid and eat subconscious Things with that acid.In French they eat Strawberrys and German eat sour herrings,but Sauerkraut had the same effect.
The video was fun to watch. Thank you! Most probably you have already tasted the maultaschen (hope you liked them, there are quite nice), but you may not know the story behind them. They were invented in a small monastry next to Kalrsuhe called Kloster Maulbronn. The alternative name for them are "herrgottsbescheißerle" or "betrayers of god" (if you would translate it directly). The problem was that christians in germany classically were not allowed to eat meat on fridays, only fish. So the monks covered the meat in dough so that god could not see the meat anymore. With that they were also able to eat meat on fridays. At least that is the legend spinning around this dish. And BTW: If you are ever near Kalrsruhe and have a one or two hours to spare Kloster Maulbronn is also worth a visit.
If you keep the cabbage under the water you won't get mold. You may still see a white fuzz but this if Kahm Yeast. I really am surprised your mom got mold if she used s fermenter with a water lock
I had to google „RAW honey“. natural honey 🍯 last for years at correct storage without pasteurization... some natural honeys are best AFTER a minimum storage time of a year. I wonder if someone will pasteurize sugar or salt, just in case :-)
Have you ever tried bread from the bakery section in the grocery store? In one of your videos you were showing us american bread but that was the cheap bread in the store aisle, not the bakery section. That's really good bread.
i have had that bread but it's just not the same.. i was in denial that our bread wasn't as good but then i came back to the US and I couldn't deny it any more. it's a huuuuge difference. sure, you can find good bread here and there but in germany, every single piece of bread you get, every single sandwich, every single pastry...it's all guaranteed to be amazing.
Nimm2, I think that's very retro... I had it back in the early infant 80's. I think it was quite tangy with the filling but a bit too orange peel/rind tasting. I like mustard being strong like wasabi.
Here is proof that German people do have humor. Now the question remains, is he a rarity or is it the language barrier that keeps the rest of the world from understanding what they are saying? Note to self: must improve my German speaking skills and find out. How people can even tolerate sauerkraut is beyond me but hey, to each it’s own. I can understand that a lot of people are put off by just thinking of eating snails, and it’s a thing in some countries. I just realized that it’s not an eyesight problem, his arms are just too short for him to be able to read properly :) Congratulations for the couple’s dynamic, you guys seem to work together quite well.
Hi Kelly, if you want to taste the original Püfferchen, please visit Amsterdam when you can. There you can taste the delicious 'poffertjes', which is the real thing.
The Döner what German call Döner is in Bread, not on a plate. And actually a German had the idea to put it in bread, and that is what germans understand under döner and what most people in germany like.
I like how you included German beer opening skills. I think the beer was the only thing he opened without making a mess, even though it was the hardest thing to open ;-)
Since he's craving Döner and you are in the DC area you should take him to www.doener-usa.com/. There are locations in Leesburg, Adams Morgan and Frederick. I've considered taking a road trip to DC just so I could eat there.
If you need some inspiration for how to describe the foods, I highly recommend emmymadeinjapan I think her content is awesome in general and you'd probably love her. I hate how accurately descriptive she is because it always makes me buy all those unhealthy foods the next time I go shopping. RIP
der man mag sein kraut xD isst die komplette dose kalt like a boss

Döner actually was invented by Turkish people in Berlin. Berlin is the largest Turkish city outside Turkey, if you count the number of Turks.

Your boyfriend looks like the brother of Stefan ( Danas Boyfriend/Husband from Wanted Adventure)
Though for a moment "What is he doing there?"
Micha liked the Sauerkraut, he kept eating it. He is 100% authentic German, your personalities work well together.

You know what to do best with those "Fix" products? Throw 'em right into the bin! Greetings from Germany.
All sweets are really authentic, but lot of things are more like Bavaria-Style. It's not really authentic for the northern parts of Germany :D
that mustard is very typical german ... many german students eat it and later fill up their shelves with these glasses for e.g. water

Hi Kelly,
have a look at this list.
www.chefkoch.de/rs/s0g145/Brot-und-Broetchen-Rezepte.html
I send a list of different bread recipes, not knowing which ingredients are available where you are.
For the beginning, a silicone mold will do the trick:

If you like the results, a breadmaker is available for less then $100.

Have fun !
sounds like a business plan. ;)
Kelly does her thing real sour dough bread is also a trend in the US. Check out americas test kitchen videos on YT
Go to Lidl grocery store for fresh baked German bread!
@Kelly Does Her Thing the raw local honey to combat allergies is actually an very old remedy. I learned about it from a Native American. Stating the same.
You are introduced to a miniscual amount of local flaura due to pollination as well as honey has natural antibiotic/antimicrobial properties and antioxidants to combate inflammation and infection😊

Right?? He’s been making me laugh since the first night I met him :) I hope he will do some more videos with me because this one was a lot of fun

Medium hot mustard isn't even a little bit spicy... 🤣
it's a little spicy compared to ours which has zero spice to it (unless you're buying specialty versions, of course)
@@Kellydoesherthing Well the best mustard isn't the german one in my opinion. French mustard like in the Elsass is just briliant. But I do agree that german mustard is more spicy than the american one. The very spicy one and the sweet one are the only mustard types I eat.
Try extra hot mustard. It's really like wasabi.
OMG!!!
Are you "one of those foks" that don´t put butter on your bread???
Butter + honey + GOOD german bread = heaven!
you're definitely right...butter makes the combo WAY better!
Jean Heart I am from Germany and I hate cold butter
yeeees butter with honey or jam
on a bread ofc xD
Viele dieser videos gehen ohne Butter ab - Brötchen , belegte Brote Marmelasen oder Nutella ....immer ohne Butter 😟😖
Funny. Your boyfriend sounds a lot like Dana's Mr. German Man. ;)
i don't think i've seen a video with him haha maybe they're from the same area or something?

This is really funny, the first thing i thought when watching the video was "hey thats Mr.German Man !! " from ua-cam.com/users/WantedAdventure
Why is Sauerkraut regarded as german? Didnt the british use tons of Sauerkraut on their ships to get Vitamin C?
Medium Hot is probably “mittelscharfer“ Mustard = NOT hot only spicy.
ohhhhhhh ok that makes sense because i've had considerably hotter mustard than how i felt this tasted
Mittelscharfer Send is the most used type of mustard in Germany.
The spicy one is scharf or extra scharf. Actually it is the same like Dijon mustard.
A famous -Bavarian- brand from Düsseldorf, NRW is Löwensenf, and they have medium hot with the green label and extra hot with the red label (warning sign ^^). As Helloweener said, the latter is made in the same way as Dijon mustard:

Yes, Löwensenf, fom the famous Bavarian city Düsseldorf.
Not everything with a lion on it is Bavarian. 😉
Munich for example was founded by Henry the lion. Who was from Brunswick and Duke of Saxony. So I would guess the lion in the coat of arms of Munich was the Brunswick lion in the past.
@Helloweener Fixed that, thanks. I hope you're not from Düsseldorf or at least not offended.
@SBlack Löwensenf calls their green-label mustard "mittelscharf" and "mild" at the same time. Confusing. :-)

Na für und ist es nunmal 0 8 15 zeugs. Für die Amis aber exotisch wie von einem anderen Planeten.
Und sind wir mal ehrlich, von guten Essen haben sie doch ohnehin keinen Plan ( was die als Brot bezeichnen oder gar als gutes Bier 🤪)
Als vetstünden die Deutschen mit ihrer uniformen Langweilerplörre etwas von richtigem Bier! 😂
Und deutsches Essen hat weltweit nicht gerade den Ruf, überragend zu sein. Zurecht!
you guys are funny! great couple!
thank you!! he really knows how to make me laugh :)
Oh man, Micha is great. :D The Döner first and his look as you say raw honey. Like he wants to say: what else? :D
Must do der Spätzle-making Video !
I found Hela Curryketchup and Deutschländer (Wiener MIT Knackpelle !! - guys, google der translate already) in NJ. Grafschafter Zuckerrübensirup only on internet delivery services though.
Kelly: I'm certain DC must have at least one German bakery for the expats to get closer to the bread you miss.
definitely must do that video!! hopefully soon :) there's a german market somewhat near here that i plan to take Misha to...it's a bit of a surprise for him so i hope he doesn't read this comment hahah
I grew up eating sauerkraut as well, I’m in the St. Louis area, lots of German history, I am of German decent as well.
I'm German and American. FIND ME A DEUTSCHE MAN LIKE YOURS!
They don't just come in boxes you can order online, you know.
You wasnt in germany...you was only in "Bayern"! :) I live in Schleswig Holstein and think the most stuff from Bayern is weird and i dont like it. Its not what every german eat or like... it feels like every second american think hole germany is bavarian. IT ISNT. Germany os so much more than Weißwurst and Bier. Bayern is like an seperate country.
Fischkopf.
Alles südlich der Alster is Afrika! xD
Bin der gleichen Meinung. Jeder der sich nicht mit Deutschland auskennt sieht in diesem Land nur Bayern und ihre komische Kultur. Ich bin Schwabe und muss sagen dass unser Essen eins der interessantesten ist aber kein anderer sieht es auch so weil sie halt nur Bayern und ihre Weißwürste kennen 😂
;)
und.... Arrogantes verhalten
$50 for 6-8 items? Das ist sehr teuer!
Ja, sehr teuer!!
Ja!
Now that you're back in the US, have you come across anyone with an interest in owning an Eierschalensollbruchstellenverursacher?
that's quite the compound word there...i feel like Löffel would be easier hahaha
Indeed. 😁 The Germans, it seems, have a unique relationship with syllables.
A long, very long-lasting one as well.
I'm wondering what would go in an American food box for expatriate Americans. Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup, New England Clam Chowder, and Cream of Mushroom Soup. Ranch Dressing. Rice Crispies ...
Don't forget nachos.
Mojo Jim
Nachos are iconic, but I can get them here even if the price is a bit ridiculous.
Peanut butter
maybe i will put together an American Food Box for Misha to open and taste everything :) i was able to get him on the peanut butter train while we were still in germany. he hated it at first but now he loves it haha
When I lived in Germany there was an American food importer. I bought a lot of peanut butter, Welch's Grape Juice and Arizona Green Tea. I think I also splurged for Cheetos once.
Hey! My family made sauerkraut - I remember my aunt, especially, making it, and cheese. I grew up on the family farm, so we had milk cows, and our own vegetables from our garden. Lots of Germans moved to the U.S. Midwest. Great video - lots of fun to watch you and your boyfriend interact.
that all sounds really delicious. homemade cheese?? made with milk from your own cows? it's like a dream. i have a friend named Marc who is from Nebraska and has strong German ancestry but I never thought that perhaps this was a popular spot for German immigrants. Thank you very much!! i'm glad you liked it :)
Tennessee here, for the past few years I've been making sauerkraut from cabbage my father grown in his garden, last year he found a "5" crock for me to use since the year before i used a glass jar he uses to make his beer but i noticed alot of mold from that batch and i tossed that away, but i have always skimmed the scum off the top of the sauerkraut while it was fermenting 4-6 weeks, last year i ended up with 14 quart jars and I decided next year if he grows cabbage again i going to try and make kim-chee
Yep, my dad milked the cows in the morning, while I milked the cows (by hand) after I got home from school. We'd skim the cream off of the top. Mom would make butter, and you can't beat it! Yes, Wisconsin and Minnesota have tons of Norwegian, Swedish, and German heritage. My own heritage - my ancestors came to the U.S. in the 1600's, and 1700's, from England (Yorkshire, Cornwall), Wales, Switzerland, Germany, Holland, and France, etc. So, I'm your typical American "Heinz 57 varieties" mix. Thanks for the fun video!
Roger - Heinz 57 varieties mix lol! haven't heard that one before.
stpaley - very cool! i hope your kim-chee turns out well!
Do you know what HARIBO stands for? It´s (HA)NS (RI)EGEL (BO)NN.
thank you!
Mold on Sauerkraut means that something went wrong. Done properly there is no mold!
Btw. Sauerkraut is also very popular in slavic countries afaik not only a german thing ;)
Its also very healthy and has a lot of vitamin C..
Sour kraut is very popular in Romania too.
You know the liquid in which stands the cabbage that later transforms it into sour kraut,that is so good to drink,like 50 ml in the morning.....beautiful 👍👍👍
The recipe for our sour kraut is simple,a wood barrel,10-14 cabbages whole(remove the dirt) depends how many can you squeeze into the barrel,fill the barrel add salt on cabbage,then add water and place a big plate or something so that the cabbage would be under the watter and place something heavy on top and cover with that thing from the barrel 😊
ohhh cool! you know, now that you mention it, i think i did have sourkraut in Bucharest with a dish that involved a lot of little mini sausages. there's a very specific name for them but i can't remember it for the life of me right now.
Kelly does her thing I think you mean sarmale stuffe cabbage with minced meat and sour cream.
What I wanted to ask you and maybe you will do a video is did you go to a football match in German?
I refuse to say soccer,your football is not football,when are you(americans) using the foot to play the game mostly you use your hand 😁
Kelly does her thing my mistake the think you eat is mici with mustard bread and bear,lots of it.
Its a must have at bbq here 😁
yes!! that's exactly what i'm thinking about. and i also ate that sarmale too!! loved both of them.i went to one football match while i was there and it was quite an experience. it wasn't a huge match so nothing compared to what i would've seen in munich, etc, but still a lot of fun! i've also been lucky enough to be in europe during two world cups which was quite a treat. and i'm going to go watch the match (germany vs sweden) this saturday at a german bar here :) i'm really excited!
this is my favorite kelly does her thing video
and i am only 2 minutes into it right now
Lol 😂
With the Tool, Spätzlehobel, you will get some short and round Spätzle.
The longer ones are made with a Spätzle-Board.
And the long Spätzle are made with a Spätzle-Press.
Spätzle have different shape depending where they get made.
Kelly, your boyfriend is awesome.
Isn’t he?? :)
Wunderbar! You two are great fun!
Thank you!! :) he keeps me laughing for sure
When I started your video I was doing something else, so I watched with half an eye and I would swear your BF looked like Stefan from Wanted Adventure (Dana). I wonder if I have seen Mike (Hayley) and if he looks similar.
hahahah really?? i don't think the three of them look anything like each other but maybe that's just me
He definitely sounded like Stefan sometimes and I'm not talking about the pronunciation! And yes, at one point I too thought they look alike (a little at least, when you just see him in the corner of your eyes). I don't see any resemblance with Mike though.
I noticed that , too !! Mr. German Man - lol!!!😁
Hayley's Mike looks different!
There are kinder eggs in usa now, they just made the packaging different where there is a whole side of the egg with the surprise only encased alone and then the other side is chocolate. I bought some for my kids for christmas this last year.
have you seen my video about the kinder joy vs kinder egg? ua-cam.com/video/r3YvMrFgGzs/v-deo.html
I live in New York and the th
Kinder eggs are for sale in supermarkets and variety stores. They come in many sizes including jumbo. They are usually near the cashier.
I grew up in southern Appalachia eating sauerkraut that my grandmother, who was in no way German, made. There are definitely pockets of America where sauerkraut is extremely popular independent of German heritage or influence.
Knorr is a product that has been in Missouri for as long as I can remember. My mother used them when I was a kid and I'm 70 yrs old.
Hi You can some of the items in the U.S. The mustard in TOPS market NYS . The KNOR sauces . The Schnetzel noodles are easy to find . Their is a lot of speciality store's in the east coast .
we will be looking for those!!
The noodles are called Spätzle (or, in Bavaria, Spatzen). The Knorr sauce powder was for "Geschnetzeltes", which is meat strips. And then there is Schnitzel = schnitzel. "Deutsche Sprache, schwere Sprache" :-)
"i'm going to try to start letting my ridiculous personality come out more in my videos so i'm glad you like the start of it :)" You warned us! Another good one from you. Thanks.
lol! i'm glad you enjoyed it :)
I'm ten minutes in and have to stop watching cause I'm laughing so hard ;-)
Sollen das nicht Apfelküchle sein? Ich habe noch nie Apfelpüfferchen gehört. Apfelküchle sind Apfelringe, die man in Pfannkuchenteig ausbackt und dann in Zimt-Zucker wendet.
i don't know...i just went with what the package said haha this is the product we got - www.oetker.de/unsere-produkte/suesse-mahlzeiten/apfel-puefferchen.html
An approved version of KinderEggs is now available in the USA. They were modified to meet the letter of the law.
Kinder Joy! i keep seeing them around and need to grab one to check it out
they aren't modified for your law, thats the german summer version of KinderEggs cause the choclate melts too fast when its warm, so you get it in these cups
I just made a video comparing the two! American reacts to Kinder Surprise Egg vs Kinder Joyua-cam.com/video/r3YvMrFgGzs/v-deo.html
@@Kellydoesherthing kinder joy is a new product thats aviable in germany too so the original kinder supridmse you will never find in america and kinder joy has a milk cream with 2 choclate balls thats not kinder surprise
This was an awesome video, it reminds me of me and my wife. She is from berlin and still lives there and me in America.
i traveled to the USA to visit my former hostfamily and I had to open all kinder surprise eggs at home ! because one of my friendstold my that she forgot to open them at home and that the TSA through them away
German Döner is amazing. I never have it in the UK but I was walking around Potsdam and only had 5€, grabbed a Döner, chips and drink and wow it is absolutely nothing like the greasy tasteless mess you have in the UK that's covered in chili sauce and jalapeños
jalapeños and chili sauce on a Döner?! oh wow. you guys seem to have an even crazier variation than the Germans haha
Billy Johnson wait. Your Döner is so cheap that you can afford a drink and chips with it? In bavaria, a Döner costs between 3,50€, sich is rare, and 4,50€
20 years ago I had a döner at a place that was awarded the best döner place in Devon (England) and I was hugely disappointed. It tasted nothing like our Döner Pitas here in Germany.
Thats only modified greek Gyros,they use the same rotating Grills
that they invented for the Gyros.But they use traditional more Garlik
which is not for everyone good.
Misha is so cute! You guys look lovely together! Have him on more of your videos! he´s really funny and both of you look very happy with each other!!
Sauerkraut is healthy and very good for the stomach and intestines! You can eat it very well from a can! Not everyone in Germany knows that!
Awesome vids, you are down to earth and very articulate, big thumbs up! You guys make a cute couple and match so well together.
I just recently bought german mustard with chilli. To make it even spicier. I bought three tubes at once. ;-)
oh wow hahahah you would probably love to visit texas to eat the food there then!
I think so, yes. I like spicy food (e.g. Thai).
German mustard has horseradish inside. That is why it is from mild, medium, hot because it is how much horseradish is in it.
Walmart and Sam's Club both sell Kinder Eggs. Maybe not like the ones in Europe but close enough.
i actually just did a video comparing the two! ua-cam.com/video/r3YvMrFgGzs/v-deo.html
Awesome !!!! Thanks for the response. I spent time in Heidenheim, Nuremberg and Munich. but that was back in 2003. Loved it though.
i love that area!! it's so beautiful
If it comes to honey, german honey is the most clean, considering meds cause germans do NOT treat their bees with meds before harvest and they usually do NOT pump them with antibiotics till they think everything is dead but it would have bin nice if the package included "Deutscher Imkerbund Honig", it´s easier to open and certified.
Ha, Swedish honey is very good. Greek chestnut honey is deliscious . Oak honey maybe with cheese.
Sauerkraut is made with white wine often. Making it with "champagne" is a variation on the recipe. German mustard sold in South Africa in the same mug is generally not very hot. English mustard is generally comparable to wasabi or horseradish. BTW you can drink cold beverages from the mustard mug but be careful pouring hot water in it as it may crack. Great show!
thank you! :)
Oh it is a difference what kind of blossoms are used for the honey. Some are only sweet but some also have a slight fruity or herbal taste for example orange blossom honey or fennel honey.
The label on this one said acacias - in German, that would be Akazie(n).
TruthNerds
Yes I read that and I knew that it is Akazie.
But she said that there is generell no difference in taste with honey.
i really can't tell the difference but maybe i'm not trying hard enough to focus on it haha perhaps i should buy some different kinds and do a sort of taste test or maybe find a place that has samples out.
Nur als Beispiel, zwischen Kanadischem Kleehonig und einem Tannenhonig, dazwischen liegen (Geschmacks)welten!
The spätzle seem authentic but not good. its better to either buy them fresh or make them yourself
The Döner in the Flatbread(?) was invinted in Germany from a guy with turkish roots. Its not directly from Turkey.
I got mustard in my car glove box to eat it with on a meat cheese roll for example😄 Cool video👍🏼
Wow, $50 for about $10 worth of German food. If there is an Aldi grocery nearby, you can find a lot of cheap German foods there, because it is a German owned store. Also, if there is a World Market store nearby, you can find a lot of German as well as other international foods there too, all much cheaper than what you paid for that box.
"Yup, this is definitely food"
4:27 I once spoke to a German lady who told me she brought Kinder Surprise eggs back to the States in Pringles cans. She was shocked when I told her they were illegal here. 😄🚔🍫🍬
I am currently a customer and I have had enough..How do I cancel ? There isn't a valid email address to cancel or to make comments. Also the phone number is a message machine. How can I cancel my monthly subscription
Most of central and eastern europe knows one variant or another of fermented cabbage (Sauerkraut) :)
US now has a version of the Kinder egg . It's a 1/2 shell of chocolate with krisper ball and the other 1/2 is the toy. I'm not sure where you would find it in DC. You could try Target in VA.
That is called a Kinder Joy. And I am not sure if you are implying that it was designed specifically for the US market, but I think that is not the case. Correct me if I am wrong.
I think that would be a kinder joy. Its similar, but by far not the same thing, though both are delicous
sauer kraut juice is the best! but from the one without the vinegar
I love traubenzucker an brause. I bring home kinder eier all the time with no problem.
The Spätzle-maker is really great! Make sure you use spätzle (alternatively pasta flour?) flour not regular flour.
i can't wait to try it!!
I have a confession to make: I looove Sauerkraut. Sometimes I get up in the middle of the night end eat an entire can. I'm pretty Americanized, but at night my German DNA comes alive. 😂
Then you are Pregnant.Pregnant Women need folic acid and eat
subconscious Things with that acid.In French they eat Strawberrys
and German eat sour herrings,but Sauerkraut had the same effect.
The video was fun to watch. Thank you!
Most probably you have already tasted the maultaschen (hope you liked them, there are quite nice), but you may not know the story behind them. They were invented in a small monastry next to Kalrsuhe called Kloster Maulbronn. The alternative name for them are "herrgottsbescheißerle" or "betrayers of god" (if you would translate it directly).
The problem was that christians in germany classically were not allowed to eat meat on fridays, only fish. So the monks covered the meat in dough so that god could not see the meat anymore. With that they were also able to eat meat on fridays.
At least that is the legend spinning around this dish. And BTW: If you are ever near Kalrsruhe and have a one or two hours to spare Kloster Maulbronn is also worth a visit.
I think every German travelling abroad is like "I want Döner!" We made it a staple food :D
Nope, fortunately we have no Döners here.. So I won't will miss them over the pond :D so not every :D
If you keep the cabbage under the water you won't get mold. You may still see a white fuzz but this if Kahm Yeast.
I really am surprised your mom got mold if she used s fermenter with a water lock
Katjes is the vegan version of Haribo. That's why their gummies are a bit harder.
It's funny for a German like me if you try to prenounce some German words like Spätzle or Pufferchen. But you did it very well.
Nice video!
I had to google „RAW honey“. natural honey 🍯 last for years at correct storage without pasteurization... some natural honeys are best AFTER a minimum storage time of a year.
I wonder if someone will pasteurize sugar or salt, just in case :-)
Have you ever tried bread from the bakery section in the grocery store? In one of your videos you were showing us american bread but that was the cheap bread in the store aisle, not the bakery section. That's really good bread.
i have had that bread but it's just not the same.. i was in denial that our bread wasn't as good but then i came back to the US and I couldn't deny it any more. it's a huuuuge difference. sure, you can find good bread here and there but in germany, every single piece of bread you get, every single sandwich, every single pastry...it's all guaranteed to be amazing.
Nimm2, I think that's very retro... I had it back in the early infant 80's. I think it was quite tangy with the filling but a bit too orange peel/rind tasting. I like mustard being strong like wasabi.
I love this videos with you and Mischa, you are so perfect together! :-)
Aw thank you :)
man. He loves you. so good to see.
Here is proof that German people do have humor. Now the question remains, is he a rarity or is it the language barrier that keeps the rest of the world from understanding what they are saying? Note to self: must improve my German speaking skills and find out.
How people can even tolerate sauerkraut is beyond me but hey, to each it’s own. I can understand that a lot of people are put off by just thinking of eating snails, and it’s a thing in some countries.
I just realized that it’s not an eyesight problem, his arms are just too short for him to be able to read properly :)
Congratulations for the couple’s dynamic, you guys seem to work together quite well.
Did the gummy shoe taste like a shoe? Lol 😂 Just kidding! 👟
Another human in your video Kelly! Now if you will only talk to a stranger or two in your travels.!
Now I also have to eat sauerkraut and drink beer, I can no longer look
Hi Kelly, if you want to taste the original Püfferchen, please visit Amsterdam when you can. There you can taste the delicious 'poffertjes', which is the real thing.
ua-cam.com/video/050bq1qqqzY/v-deo.html
what was the cause for banning surprise eggs? I mean we have it here for decades and never anything happened...
Our laws say that you cannot completely conceal a non-food item within a food item for safety and that’s what the Kinder Surprise does
I like the way he snack the Sauerkraut all the Time XD
Kinder eggs at RiteAid right now...lol (they changed them, plastic cover with filling and a toy...lol
Hast Du ihr denn mal verraten, wie lange diese Produkte schon auf dem Markt sind... Schon mindestens über 50 Jahre
The Döner what German call Döner is in Bread, not on a plate. And actually a German had the idea to put it in bread, and that is what germans understand under döner and what most people in germany like.
We get to meet your boyfriend! He does exist! Lol
Sorry, had to
hahaha my parents felt the same way
I like how you included German beer opening skills. I think the beer was the only thing he opened without making a mess, even though it was the hardest thing to open ;-)
Lol!
don't want to walk 5 flights of stairs to visit your girlfriend? shatter your knees.. perfect plan :3
They were checked sometimes but they were still in it
Since he's craving Döner and you are in the DC area you should take him to www.doener-usa.com/. There are locations in Leesburg, Adams Morgan and Frederick. I've considered taking a road trip to DC just so I could eat there.
awesome!! we will definitely be going to check it out. sadly it looks like the Adams Morgan one is closed :( but i think it will be worth the trek
If you need some inspiration for how to describe the foods, I highly recommend emmymadeinjapan
I think her content is awesome in general and you'd probably love her. I hate how accurately descriptive she is because it always makes me buy all those unhealthy foods the next time I go shopping. RIP
I will check her out! Thanks!
I don't know if you know it guys but Döner comes from Germany not from Turkey :)
I have been going for 20 years an they have never been taken out of my checked bags.
