Subtitles are available in German (and English)
I recently moved to Finland from Germany and drive 31km to an original German bakery every morning! German bread is the best food in the world!
Where do you live, that you have to drive soo far???
@@juwen7908 In north-west Finland. Unfortunately, German bakeries don't grow on trees here.
@@Kelsea-2002 Oh, I just read it wrong! I thought, you moved from finland to germany. Now it makes more sense 😉
Greetings from Berlin 😎
@@juwen7908 Liebe Grüße zurück in die 'verrückteste' Stadt Deutschlands. 🤗👋
I'm thinking about moving to Finland in a few years, but i would miss upper Bavaria cause i have lived here my whole life. And i don't want to miss out on the German bread and other pastries here.
They definetly forgot the Mettbrötchen, which is a breadroll filled with raw minced pork, salt, pepper, other spices varying with almost every butcher shop and mostly usual: onion rings. Also known as the construction workers breakfast.
Mettbrötchen is minority thing.
"A life without Mettbrötchen is possible, but pointless." xD
@@armitage9204no.
Maurermarmelade!
Mettbrötchen existiert halt außerhalb vom Norden nicht ^^
The one thing I cannot live without as a German is good bread, I eat it every day. Just ate a some for dinner. (Fun fact: dinner is called Abendbrot in German, which literally translates to evening bread)
The rest of the list is not so essential for me, except one thing they didn't even mention: potatoes.
Abendbrot ❤😊
Abendbrot
Yes, the potatoes were definitely missing.
There is no way I would ever live in a country without proper bread if not forced to. That kind of bread where you eat two slices, topped with a nice, thin layer of butter, and some hearty cheese or delicious ham, perhaps a slice of veggie on top (radish, tomato, cucumber or a leaf of salad) (or, if you have a sweet tooth, some jam or honey or nougat paste), and be satiated for hours. That kind of bread that has a taste of its own, not just some gummy-textured, mildly-wheat-flavoured sponge made only to bear some topping.
Well, I usually wouldn't consider myself a stereotypical German, but I'd totally say I wouldn't go without proper bread 😅I love the variety and how filling it usually is. Also,though I am a vegetarian I still love all the tasty stuff the Turkish have brought along or created here, I just go with meatless variations instead :)
bread is amazing. it's even gotten the Unesco World Heritage Status in Germany for having over 5000 different types of bread.
i even love bread so much that i am making my own. If you go to Germany and you don't like Bread, then this is the place to change your mind.
I am German but have lived abroad for many years. Bread is certainly what I miss most. It is so hard to find good bread outside the German speaking world and of course Slavic countries and maybe Skandinavia.
Im missing "Mettbrötchen". Cant live without it. Its spiced raw meat, topped with onions and pepper on a Brötchen
rule number one in germany in regards to beer: drink the local beers. they're usually the best.
I lived in the UK for a year and one of my neighbors was also German. She taught herself how to bake bread because she missed it so much! And I was rlly happy to live close ;D
A very common and ceep street food in Bavaria is "Leberkäse-Semmel" with mustard or ketchup. The Leberkäse is a kind of fluffy and tasty, big and hot meetcake (🤷🏼) , where the butcher cuts it fresh . . . 😋🤤
I'm from Vienna, we've got a variation called "Käsleberkäs", which has cheese in it. I think its even better, especially if you get it hot, the cheese will melt, it's something I really miss here in Rhineland were I live now.
In Hessen findet man bis rauf nach Kassel auch in der Regel noch mindestens normalen, aber manchmal auch Pizza-Fleischkäse (mit Stücken Tomate, Salami und Käse) an der Fleischtheke jedes Supermarkts. Mittlerweile gibt's sowas in der Cafeteria meiner alten Schule. Früher, als die Gummistiefel noch aus Holz woarn, da gab's sowas ebe noch net.
@@bazingaburg8264 Als die Gummistiefel noch aus...Boah kann nicht mehr, der woi´s guat 🤣
@@Swammy68 Bitte, gerne 😄
Leider weiss ich die Quelle nicht, aber derartiger Blödsinn wärmt mir das Herz.
"Laber fasel schwätz, soso, versteh ich das richtig?" (misstrauisch nachhaken)
- Mer waases net, mer mungelt nur, werd noch gforscht, aber schab mir saache losse, doss stimmt.
Im Keller hört man das monotone Sausen der Bartwickelmaschine = Der Witz hat sooo nen Bart.
Schönen Tag 😁
Fleischsalat is being done with Fleischwurst (literally meat sausage). It is for reference-some kind of baloney/bologna.
You can buy it in one piece or already cut in stripes.
We also have something called Wurstsalat (and Schweizer Wurstsalat which is the same thing, but with cheese added).
This one is prepared with a simple Vinaigrette and there are onion stripes in it.
I love all of these foods, but what the two ladies didn't mentioned, is "Broiler" (delicious roasted Chicken) with Brötchen in East Germany. It's a very good street food! 🤤😋🍗
They live in Düsseldorf. We don’t have that in NRW. Roasted chicken can be bought as half a chicken from special food trucks here.
@@claudiakarl7888 That's the same thing. Broiler was just the name we used in the GDR for that type of meal (like Selters for any sparkling water or Tempo for any kind of paper tissue).
@@claudiakarl7888he/she means halbes Hähnchen. Broiler is just the eastern Name for it
Different regions have Different names sometimes:
A jelly filled Donut = Berliner(north/west) , Pfannkuchen (Berlin/East) Krapfen (South)
Whike a Pfannkuchen is a Eierkuchen in Berlin
Roasted ground beef =
Frikadelle or Bullette or Fleischpflanzerl
@@wandilismus8726 I know that. Therefore my hint to NRW.
Bullshit, Grillhähnchen gibt's überall in Deutschland.
Manche Leute sind extrem verpeilt und kennen nicht mal nen Broiler 🙄
The difference between the german breakfast and the full english breakfast is, we mostly don't eat breakfast warm. The warm parts of a german breakfast are only the eggs and the fresh baked bread roles 😉
Bread should never be eaten freshly baked though. It needs to cool down to get flavor and can actually taste very weird fresh from the oven. You mean Brötchen.
@@Lancor84 But after 3-4 hours of cooling down it tasted the best. :)
When I have been to the UK (lake district) I couldn't stand full english breakfast. I don't like to eat meat anyways for breakfast but especially black pudding , mushrooms and regular other fat sausages are totally not my thing. Porridge saved my life there. I like as well the English marmelades with toast, but no comparison to German bread
Sauerkraut with Cassel roast (very fine piece of pork) and cooked potatoes is absolutely delicious, particularly with a savory onion sauce.
Here in Swabia you can get Sauerkraut fried together with bacon, onions and Bubaspitzle/Schupfnudeln (a bit similar to Italian Gniochi). It's also a kind of food-to-go.
Those 2 ladies were way more entertaining than i thought before. Don't know exactly why, but after 2 minutes Waldorf & Statler popped up in my head 😂
I live in Hamburg, the best Döner Kebap I ever had was in Bremen. A huge Fladenbrot, filled with Lamb, and I had the small bowl of ground chili and a spoon for myself to put it on top of every bite.
I lived in south america for 7 months and the thing I missed most was bread 😂 that is a completely true stereotype
Currywurst & Döner are typical late night street foods, so I eat that pretty often.
(late night/weekend job/Döner is the clear winner because the salad in it gives me the illusion of healthy food)
Beer is something I rarely drink(again job related).
I do not put butter on my bread but every backery with pre-preped Brötchen does so I eat it fairly often.
Cabbage stuff maybe once a month (Most cabbage stuff goes with slow cooked meat so I rarely find time to prepare it properly./The TV/microweave variants are attrocious.)
Love our supermarket meat counters, very often they have also seasonal/regional specials. Visit there once a week.
Bread does not even discribe our glorious choices of backed goods. Every day
Moinsen!!... Jeden Tag ein, zwei Bier oder mehr braucht der deutsche zum Verzehr 👍😀
All lekerts un best ut noordduitsland 👍
yeah this was a good list. I have 2 Döner shops and 7 bakeries within a 5 minute walking distance.
Apfelschorle, cold on a hot summerday. Absolute heaven if you are really thirsty. 0,5L in one shot, no problem. The refreshinator mix. xD Alcohol free "Radler" (beer/lemonade mix) has the same vitalizing effect. 👍👍
Well the cabbage is definitely a thing. There are so many varieties. We are having it once a week. What is also definitely to mention, especially for me is the fish, I cannot live without Fish, Matjes (fermented Hering) on a roll is my favourite. But there a lot of varieties like the shrimp roll which is also extremely good or the Backfisch (fried fish) with a crispy coat can be also very good. Maybe it’s because I am from a Northsea Island but fish is definitely to mention.
I don't know anybody who makes a straight rule like "I eat cabbage type of plant every week" that is just silly. Instead there are so many types, that it's highly likely you will have it every week or more.
Again a cool video- In general you can say that in Germany they like it bite-proof. In the USA you eat a hot dog, everything is quite soft and sweet... white bread etc. In Germany there is the bratwurst in a bun. A matter of taste, but somehow also healthier and tastier.. :-)
We had currywurst-pommes days, almt least once a week. That were the good old times.
Honestly bread more than anything. I've been to some places mostly in Europe and with all given respect to their capabilities, but German bread is just on a different level. Not just considering all the different types but just the freshness, the taste, the consistency ... I mean we even have a freaking bread-mascot in state TV
German dishes are not as fine as French or Italian dishes. They are hearty and fill you up. A beer is ideal with it. In keeping with the wet and cold weather in Germany, they are greasy. Dishes with cabbage are typical for winter. There are many potato dishes, in addition to meat, vegetables are important. Salads are important too. But there are also many fish dishes and seafood. In Germany we not only have bread made from wheat, but from rye, barley and potatoes. There is bread with poppy seeds, sunflower seeds, etc. There is also a huge variety of tarts, cakes and pastries.
Street food is also very popular. As shown in the video, Germans love currywurst or doner kebap, served with fries. There are also many fish dishes in the bun. Half a chicken and other grilled sausages are also popular. Germans like to eat Italian food, mainly pasta and pizza (I know there is much, much more to Italian cuisine).
Yes, in Berlin you can get food from all corners of the world. But there is also a large selection in other major cities. Germans like to go to one of these restaurants "to their Greek", "to their Italian". It's a short culinary Vacation in your own city.
Fun-Fact: Volkswagen-facility @ Wolfsburg has its own butcher-dept. which won several awards for there housemade Currywurst. Getting so famous and coveted its sold raw for home-cooking in supermarkets for several years...
Im german and love all of these... the bread is outstanding... was looking for similar in italy and uk but it wasnt like home, not nearly... every food they showed, is amazingly tasty
Why does no one ever talk about Germany being one of the best wine producing countries? Beer I just cannot … But give me glas of good Riesling and I am happy. ❤
Well, some good white wines. Thats it. Most of the rest is rubbish. Not really a wine country...
Romans certainly did talk about it.
I agree with bread, especially dark bread, and everything you need for this like butter/margarine/cream cheese and then some sliced meat, called Aufschnitt, like salami or cooked ham or Aufstrich liked Teewurst or Leberwurst and some kinds of cheese ...
i was last weekend on a festival and drank 12 Liters of Beer on one day. so yeah i love beer and cant live without it
Rotkraut (fermented red cole) and Blaukraut (fermented blue cole) is the same. The color depends on the PH value of the water where it gets fermented. So the name depends on the local region.
In northern Germany we call it Rotkohl, but I don't think it's fermented... ? We just slowly cook it for a few hours. I think the color depends on the ingredients one adds especially the acidity. You can use apples, red wine, vinegar, and of course different spices such as bay leaves, cloves, cinnamon.
@@Kristina_S-O The original Sauerkraut is fermented. The Sauerkraut which you can buy in the store is boiled which is much faster and is needed to conserve like you do with jam.
@@martinv.352 Du hast aber oben von Rotkraut/Blaukraut/Rotkohl - und nicht Sauerkraut - geschrieben. Das wird mit Sicherheit nicht fermentiert, sondern eingekocht.
Hey, in the Biergarten nearby they have Apfelschorle made of not-sparkling water and real apple juice. IT'S GREAT! And be sure: If you,any time in the future, are in the Nürnberg region, feel youself (and your family, of course) be instantly invited by me to real Nürnberger Brautwürste mit Sauerkraut und Krustenbrot! In southern Germany Currywurst might be not so preferred. And I use to eat Blumenkohl, Rosenkohl, Blaukraut very regually. AND potatoes in every form. LECKER! And my favourite beer was Erdinger Weißbier Dunkel and Erdinger Weißbier Pikantus. Liebe Grüße!
Man, I love you're Scottish accent. It remember me on my time in Scotland. Great. Many greats trom Germany.
Winter is my favorite time for eating. Wirsing, Rosenkohl, Grünkohl, Ahle Worscht und Kartoffeln.
Sauerkraut goes with special dishes, but ...., like Rotkohl also just certain dishes.
The Currywurst was invented in Berlin. It is a thick Bratwurst with lots of hot tomatosauce and curry on the top. The Currywurst is most reknowned at the VW canteen at VW in Wolfsburg. People actually go there not to buy a VW but to eat the famous Currywurst. Of course it is also a streetfood.
2:30 Your face as you saw the Fleischsalat. 😂 Priceless! And yeah It's really yummy. 😊
The traditional version of Döner before the in bread version is inventent was on a plate in layers of pitabread cut in cubes as the bottom layer, then the dönermeat, then tomato sauce and then garlic yoghurt. And yes, the versio we know now is invented in Berlin by a Turkish expat living in Berlin.
Iskender?... That'll be at least as what it's sold here
@@Xnhl Exactly. It is the same meat, served differently.
You could start a kind of war in Germany only by asking if someone wants Butter under the Nutella or only without 🤣.
I put butter under it because it feels "dry" without it 😅
My granny always did Rotkohl, Grünkohl and Rosenkohl (red cabbage, kale, Brussels sprouts). Red cabbage with apples and Schmalz is very delicious for Christmas!!
One of the most multicultural areas in germany is the ruhr valley. That comes from the time, when the ruhr valley was the melting pot of coal mining and steel production and many workers from espacialy turkey, italy and poland moved to the ruhr valley. Thats also the reason why the ruhr valley is constantly competing with berlin for the best döner and currywurst.
Best currywurst on this planet: Bochum! ;)
@@JohnHazelwood58Best Currywurst is in Düsseldorf. The girls need to visit "Curry's", a high end, currywurst specialised resto: The used to be one Schirmerstraße and one in the Medienhafen. 😋👍🏻
@@vornamenachname3373 Maybe, but the Currywurst was invented in Bochum - so it's like the original, german Currywurst.
Blutwurst mit Sauerkraut und Röstkartoffel. (Blood sausage/Sauerkraut/fried potatoes). Very heavy, but yummy!
Hey!
The best street food in Germany definately is Currywurst with french fries. My favourite food truck is in Berlin called "Die Bratpfanne" in Steglitz. Best best best best of the best!! 😊
I cannot do without good bread and butter, cheese and cold meat as well as rice and noodles. As a German I love to try out foreign beers and I can do without Sauerkraut and Döner. 😂
You should try the many Joghurts and all the different salads with mayo, the fish, the Leberkäse, the Spätzle, the Printen, the Stollen, the Grünkohl, the Frikadellen that vary from region to region. There is so much to explore!
Thanks, Mert, for all your little Germany-loving impressions on your channel. I love to watch! Since I lived in Malaysia for some years in the '80s I'd love to know what you like about life there. Returning to Germany I thought, all people are rude or sick, walking around with unhappy faces. In Malaysia I remember people being polite and friendly. Well, perhaps only childhood impressions... 😅 Take care!
I'm German and i don't eat a lot of bread on an everyday basis. But every time i come back from a holiday abroad, i go and get some 'real' bread.
I'm not overly exited about the German kitchen but if i had to point out 3 things it would be bread, sausages and beer...
Perhaps the trick is that bread and beer are made without lots of additives and that sausages are made with over 90% meat. Just clean products!
One of the rarest breads to find in Germany, only in Mönchengladbach near Düsseldorf, and one of the most delicious one is "Onjeschwedde". It is a mild sweet bread with currants and anise. It is made from the flour of fresh harvested rye when it is not dryed yet. The name "Onjeschwedde" is from a dialect. It could be translated as "not dried" or "not sweated". This refers just to the freshly harvested rye. This bread taste fantastic just with butter or some Leberwurst. This "Brot" i only available from end of june to september.
The german 'Metzgerei' (false automatic Translation: "Mexican Guy") is simply a Butcher's Shop, where you can buy all kinds of raw Meat for cooking, baking, Grill/Barbecue, etc. and many Variations of Sausage, maybe also Spices and Sauces for preparing meatbased Food and many more. Often a Metzgerei offers Meat from local Farms and regional Products or even 'homemade' Stuff that hasn't been processed in some huge Wholesale Butchery Company.
hearty fresh sourdough rye bread with butter and a little Salt. Butterbrot! and the best is the first cut/ the edge from a fresh bread, we call it 'Knüstchen' or 'Statzerl' 🤤
I Love these ladies, immediately checking out their channel
Not only bread but german pastry in general is the best.
My favourite traditional German dish : Rouladen mit Rotkraut (red cabbage), Kartoffelpuree (mashed potatoes) und brauner Sauce (brown gravy). I grew up eating this and I will eat it till I die.
Being German I consider this list very strange. I also always miss German bread and beer, of course, but I can definitely do without the rest. I would miss tomatoes, strawberries, cherries and apples, and maybe smoked ham and a couple of cheeses like Bergkäse (mountain cheese?) or blue cheese and probably potatoes..The latter are definitely missing in the list.
If you are in Germany and want to try Street food you got to try Currywurst, Wurstbrötchen with mustard or Döner (German kebab)
12:37 at the barbecue on the weekend there is always Kirschbier, Bananenweizen and Diesel (Cola/Beer Mix)
12:30
Beer marks the "Feierabend" (end of the workiong day) "Feierabendbier".
I have heared the therm "Feierabendbier" also been applied to other things like weed.
When your pubs basically are open all night long,it doesn't take long,not to binge-drink.
and you "need" a döner 😂
Yeah, going with your comments on various videos, I'm fairly sure you'd feel right at home in many, if not most parts of Germany 😊
BREAD, BREAD - nothing is better than a GOOD GERMAN BREAD!!! And every time I spend my vacation in a different country I miss good bread ... except of Denmark! Thumbs up also for Danish bread!
mit guter BUTTER
What a lovely couple
Six Month in the USA. I was looking for german bread. Then i travel to visit friends in Vancouver. Yeah, i got my german bread. I'm a german. I need my bread🙂
Davon hab ich jezt Hunger bekommen , ich werd mir erstmahl ein Brot schmieren mit Butter und Leberwurst. I've gotten hungry from that, I'll first spread myself some bread with butter and liver sausage 😁😁
Yes Jen and Yvonne were on point there.... they are from Düsseldorf also like myself so the things they mentioned I can agree to more or less, but that differs from region to region slightly of course.
They forgot potatoes.
Personally , I don`t like to drink sparkling water , because of the fizz. I can do live without it. I like to drink still water pure, or mixed with juice. And the German breakfast with fresh bread , butter, jam, sausage, cheese , etc. with coffee or tea to drink , I can`t do without it. And drinking a cool beer and eat a Bratwurst with bread and mustard just so delicious.😍
I really enjoy..the way you are and your dialect..GOOD LUCK !!!!
Mix Sauerkraut with mashed potatoes (with a good amount of milk and butter), it's so good.
We eat Cabbage quite often, especialy during winter season, when the freshly harvested. For Beer i would say one of the best ones is "Kloster Scheyern hell" ;)
Döner Kebab lives from the Sauce, if the sauce is great you will have a greart Döner.
And also as a non meat eater you can have great veggie Döner with Falafel (Chickpeaballs) and Haloumi (Grillcheese).
In Berlin i can also find an increasing amount of places where you can get saitan instead of meat in your döner, which is also realy tasty.
I recall having heard that there is more than 3k different types of bread in Germany that differ from each other enough to have their own category. Is that true ?
In the city of Ulm - the one with the cathedral with the highest belfry - you can find a bread museum.
Blutwurst is like Black Pudding. But we have a different variety of Black Pudding which is called "Panhas". Panhas is especially for frying in a pan and eat it with cowberries or applesauce or mashed potatoes. Teewurst has a very different taste to other sorts of Wurst. Its taste is a bit sour i would say, but it tastes delicious on some brown bread.
Apfelschorle is in fact the very best isotonic drink!!!!! I love Currywurst....make it often by myself...
I had fights with my mother about most cabbage- and Sauerkraut-meals... urrrgh. After a year, she switched over to `warning me` already at the breakfast table in the morning: `Go out for a Currywurst after school, I cook Sauerkraut today... :)
As a german from Upper Franconia / Bamberg, I dont want to,live without Wirsing, bread and beer. In Bamberg we have 10 traditionell breweries, also more as Munich or Cologne.
Rotkohl is wonderful! In my childhood I had cabbage on a regular basis… but now I avoid cabbage 🤣
my favorite beer is VITUS from Weihenstephaner, its the oldest brewery in the world....and the monks rly knew their stuff.....its a Wheat Bock Beer.....so good
I am german and I have the exact same Fleischsalat-issue as the german in this video. there is one from the butcher in the city where I grew up, that is the best. so when I visit my parents I binge on it. my parents know to get the big package when I come to visit.
7:15 this was no apple-sauce, thats potato salad as well! (the vinegar type, not the mayonaise type)
In germany there are two types of potato salad.
The first type was already mentioned .. is with mayonaise (more popular in the northern up to the middle-german region)
and the second type is with vinegar (more popular in the southern up to the middle region)
there is a kind of "potato salad type belt" cutting germany into 2 halfs
honestly :D
Love your reaction video and the accent is beautiful
9:30:
there is sweet "Sauerkraut"
3:34 Oh yeah, Fleischsalat from the Butchers shop in the village I was raised. Best food ever and not compareable to Fleischsalat from the supermarket. Very german!
5:08 Fresh Bread, Butter and Salt. Awesome. Very german. I was eating that with my grandmother, when ever she bought fresh bread from the Bakery shop. First slice of the bread was always with Butter and Salt.
8:42 Schorle: YES; Grapejuice-Schorle is my favorite. 1/3 Juice, 2/3 sparkling water. Currywurst: YES!!!!
9:55 Nearly nobody eats Sauerkraut for itself. It is an easy to storage and cheap to get sidedish for many porkbased dishes. It fills the belly in hard times and we had some hard times in germany over the history.
10:57 Rotkohl is one of my favorite foods. The rest of the Cabbage? Like Sauerkraut.
11:30 Cabbage two times a week. More often in winter. Because it is cheap and easy to store.
13:53 Döner Kebab is the perfect food. But it is not german. The meat is not typically german. The Bread is not typically german. It is turkisch and there is some very similar Gyros Pite in Greece, the neighbour country of Turkey. So it is definitly a mediterrainian or middle eastern food. Definitly not german, but very good.
You are wrong with the Döner. Your argument is basically that Mac and Cheese isn't American because it's made from Italian noodles and English cheddar cheese. The Döner sandwich was first sold in Berlin by Turkish immigrants.
@@Psi-Storm My Argument is, that there are lots of very similar foods in eastern mediterrainian Area. Dürüm, Gyros Pita, Schawarma... Immigrants from eastern mediterrainian Area sold it first in Berlin. Main ingredienz are prepared in eastern mediterrainian style. If it walks like a duck and sounds like a duck it is probably a duck.
When I studied in Spain, I had to walk approx 1 km, one way, for the bread that was kinda like german bread (would not choose it in Germany, better options).
I prefer whole grain bread, the darker the better. I do not like any type of white squishy bread, like toast bread.
Bread is definately a thing i miss when i'm on a vacation in other countries. Good meat and sausages ate sometimes hard to get, too.
But the most countries i travelled to got a good Beer 😅
I also love Kebab and Currywurst
Really nice reactions, found your Channel because of the reaction to "Die Anstalt", I like to watch very much.
I am from Germany and the only i would agree is Bread and Beer, because i don't like meat and sausage that much
Currywurst Pommes rot weiß (oder Schranke) und Schnitzel gibt es in jeder Kantine.
My favorite canteen food is the
Volkswagen original part 199 398 500 A
with VW original part 199 398 500 B
and a Brötchen.
Fleischsalat is different to Wurstsalat. Fleischsalat is with cold beef strips and Wurst salat is with sausage (Mortadella) aaannnnd you can make the Wurstsalat with mayo or vinaigrette. The same is with potato salad. With mayo or vinaigrette. And the age old question: raw or cooked onion cubes. 😂😂
It is a question what you are used to and what your granny loves to make ❤
I can live without Fleischsalat and wonder why it is 1st place.
I lived in Ireland for some years and first thing my colleagues and I had to do when returning to Germany was to go to a take-away and get a Currywurst odert a Döner Kebab.
There is/was a foodtruck in and around Dublin. The was run by a german (butcher). My colleagues and me always kept track on his route to get decent sausage.
I could not live without:
Bread
Sausage
Quark
Lidl was my happy place
B R E A D :) For Apfelschorle just mix plain apple juice 1 part and 2 parts of Mineralwasser maybe add some icecubes very refreshing
The cabbage eating in Germany is a science by itself. They didn't mention the Mettbrötchen😅
Me coming back home after spending 3 months in the UK:
My mom: honey look at you, you did loose so much weight. What do you want to eat. I will prepare anything you want.
Me: thanks mom. actually I would really like to have a normal bread and sausage dinner (we literally call it evening bread).
My mom: are you sure you don't wanna have something more special?
Me: No mom. Really, I am craving for some proper bread and sausage.🤤 You have no idea what I went through. 🙈😂 3 months only with toasted bread.
One time, my British hosts bought bezels for me. It's been really nice of them to think of me. The thing is - in my home area in Germany we don't really eat bezels regularly. Even the kind of dough that is used for pretzels is not very common where I am from. 😅
A couple of years back I spent 2 months in Russia and the lady that was taking care of me and other Germans made jokes of the German relationship towards their bread to other Russians. "Can you imagine Germans can eat bread all day long? In the mornings, they eat bread rolls, their taking sandwiches to work and even in the evening they eat bread!" 😂 yes - we can. But we sure don't do it this excessively at one day.
I much prefer bread in Eastern Europe over bread I have eaten in the UK. But there is some kind of soda drink you can get in Eastern Europe called Kwass. It's bread flavoured (bitter and sweet at the same time). There are good and bad brands but to be honest with you - just the idea of drinking liquid sweet flavoured bread is disturbing me.
I mean, you can do so much better by brewing good beer with wheat. 😋
Everybody should try Spätzle, Maultaschen, Thüringer Bratwurst, Blutwurst, Presskopf, Pfälzer Leberwurst, Brezel and Pfefferbrezel, Döner, Rostbrätl, Kartoffelsalat,...there is so much more😅
Bread is number one for me, potato's is a must.
Mayonnaise in salad is only in northern Germany. Southern Germany makes salads differently without mayonnaise.
Was born near stuttgart and used to like beer a lot specially tannezäpfle but since it moved to a wine region i shifted to drinking more wine. I still enjoy a beer but prefer wine now
Yes, the Story is True.
When you‘re drunken their is nothing tastier than a Döner…
Blutwurst is something like a Pudding. But there also Hard kinds of it.
A good list.
For me,Sauerkraut ist not so big,I see it not often.
I eat it sometimes with a good sausage.
Bread and Beer,our life bssics😂😂
You asked what beer we love the most.There are to much good ones.
Here in Bavaria we drink Helles or Weizen,Dark Weizen.
Pils and stuff like these is more in the West and northern Regions of Germany.
Currywurst and Döner are great.
Rouladen,Knödel,Kartoffelsalat,Sauerbraten,there are a lot of great things to eat.
basicly everything that is mentiont i eat /drink on a weekly basis :D
Sauerkraut is more typical in South Germany and goes well with sausages and porc.
There is a German band called „We Butter The Bread With Butter“… enjoy😂
