    WHO IS BUNCHARTED?
    We're Michelle and Alex, an American expat couple living abroad in the Netherlands. 🇳🇱
    In 2020, we quit our jobs to travel the world, and... well, that didn't happen. So in 2022, we decided to make an even BIGGER change by packing up our lives (and our cats 🐈) and moving from Austin, Texas, in the US, to Rotterdam, in the Netherlands.

    Little warning for the vegetarians and vegans here: those goulash kroketten are definitely NOT a vegetarian option!
    I got a little exited since those used to be my favorite type of kroket before I stopped eating meat. So I googled it and the first ingredient is beef. :( I really hope veggie versions of other kroket flavours will be available some day.

    In foreign countries, slices of bread are often considered as inferior bread that is only suitable for toasting. In the Netherlands, slices of bread don't smell like old socks and are delicious to eat fresh, and actually, only old bread is toasted.
    When I'm in foreign hotels, I can only choose between stale slices of bread (intended for toasting) and hard rolls. I really miss the delicious fresh slices of soft bread.
    Btw, the pink layer on the 'roze koek' consists of cochineal, which is made from the dried bodies of female cochineal lice. Eet smakelijk! 😋

      A number of the preservatives and other additives in American bread make it illegal to sell in a large part (maybe all) of Europe.
      Sometime during the industrialisation of the US. keeping bread good became more important than making good bread.
      Shelf life became more important than nutritional value and flavor.

      Another thing to mention is that traditionally we dont just toast old bread, we put it in a pan with beaten eggs and make "wentelteefjes" that are generally eaten with sugar or (apple) syrup. Its a really good cheap comfort food to make with old bread.
      Alternatively you can take your old bread outside and feed the ducks, its a lot of fun to do with small kids.

    Something really nice to try with the bastogne cookies is to dip them in tea before eating. Can also use coffee, but I do prefer tea (and I also personally use a little sugar in my tea/coffee). No need to dip it for very long, maybe a second or so. They soak up a decent amount of liquid and will break if you soak them too much.

    -Mussels in sour
    - Harde worst (dry sausage)(preferably with cloves as a taste, or both), but get a good one.
    -Smeer leverworst (on bread, taste great on roasted bread) and normal leverworst (Kips is one of the best as slice)
    - All kind of cheeses (with komijn, herbs, sambal, from young to very old)
    -Smeerkaas (sambal) on bread or on a slice of a baguette
    -all kinds of bread From white to brown, with and without seeds , (butter and a slice of cheese or something else) I need butter on my bread, some people prefer it without.

    johma salad so incredibly delicious. try more flavors of Johma salad so you can see that more are also very tasty. I recommend you also try Heksn kaas from Johma. It comes from a village in the east of the Netherlands called Losser and is located in Twente .
    Pepernoten really a snack that is eaten around November and December.just like filled gingerbread and butter bars filled with almond paste .
    which is also very Dutch, different stew. and of course meatballs .
    Rye bread with snert is also delicious . salty herring on rye bread. And Zeeland syrup on rye bread is also Dutch food.
    Cinnamon stick is also tasty, it is candy. raisin bread with real butter and cheese.

    You should definitely try Schuddebuikjes! Its speculaas but then small like sprinkles so you can use it on bread with butter. I personally love it on slightly toasted fresh white bread with a little butter.
    Other thing is the huzarensalaatje (dont know wether it is typically dutch though). But really curious if you like it or not 😮

    • @Jurjen_Warrel_Ottenhoff

      @buncharted You can actually get a pretty decent kit from Albert Heijn to make it from scratch, look in the veggie section voor the AH-verspakketten. The instructions work well as a base recipe, and the meat you normally use for the base broth can also be purchased in there (pork ribs, called "krabbetjes"). After you've tried the basic recipe, you can then continue with your own variations.

    We almost never buy "snert" we prefer to make it our selves. I even grow some lovage for that in our garden. Every end of autumn we make a really big pan of snert. We have it as dinner the day after we made it, because it's even better then. The rest we portion and put in the freezer. During the winter we eat it when it's cold, wet and windy ;-)

Pepernoten differ not so much, they usually taste around the same. But there's lots of different other snacks; chocolate letters, speculaas, chocolate anything, marsepein, Taai taai...

    If you like the filling in the van dobben kroketten you should definitely try beef ragout.

Its a very traditional Dutch winter treat and its a perfect snack or appetizer before a (Christmas) dinner. Goes hard with a glass of light red wine as well.
