You can make your own béchamel sauce with mustard. Boil the eggs until soft or hard, depending on your taste. Serve with boiled potatoes. And the delicious meal is ready. Mustard sauce with eggs and potatoes. 😋
if you have made a white sauce , you can put mustard, a bit of lemon juice, peper in it and you have your own Senfsoße. boiled eggs, and boiled potatoes and green beans is a perfect match.
I always love getting gifts from my friends who get to travel abroad. I have always wanted to travel to 🇩🇪 just have always been fascinated by the culture and people!
In bigger stores you may find bags with very small bags of (maybe 10) tiny gummy bears. Great give aways for extended family, collegues, aquaintances, neighbours etc.
Hermann Laue (HeLa) is originally a spice importer in a small town at the outskirts of Hamburg. The company mixes exotic spices and herbs and fills them into paper satchels that butchers use when they make their pastries. Mixing curry powder into ketchup was an idea after the invention of the „Currywurst“ and when BBQs became more common. One of the HeLa managers once told me that the giants like Heinz or Thomy would have no problem to wipe them off the market, but as spiced ketchup is such a Germany-only trade good for a very small market they simply ignore that dwarf.
I'd love to hear feedback on how your family and friends liked the things you picked out. That'd be an interesting video or instagram shorts idea. I've got to say you picked some interesting stuff and I'm curious if they like it. Also a tip when looking for local honey in supermarkets they say on the back if they contain local honey but last time I checked the one you bought contains honey from EU and non EU countries. They have to label that, so it pretty easy to find out if it's actually local or not. That being said, I still love that honey you picked, it's delicious and a great choice because of the different varieties. I'd also recommend flavours they don't have in the us, like black currant and Waldmeister
Be careful with honey, there may be import bans in various countries outside the EU due to various bee diseases. This applies particularly to Australia, for example, but also to various other countries. Likewise, the EU does not accept all food from outside. Therefore, always check with your own customs office in advance to avoid paying a fine and having the gift destroyed.
Your pronounciation of Daim was on point. Today, it belongs to Mondelez, which is an US American brand, but was invented by the swedish company Marabou.
I liked all of your choices and liked it watching- very German and very special. I also love Eier in Senfsauce 💜 … its a great idea to bring it with you. Me i also dont like Haribo-Colorado … i prefer Phantasia.
I love all your choices (even though they wouldn’t be my choices) because I can tell you want your friends and family experience your joy! Pico-Balla is so great but unfortunately Haribo took out the blue one, those where the best.
Weleda and Kneipp beauty products from a DM or Müller. Cremes, lotions, shower gels, shampoos. Guhl shampoo Bier for thin hair. If you have enough money, Rausch shampoo from Switzerland. They are pricy but oh so good. Every American who was here loves sweet Bavarian mustard, so get these as well. Händlmaier.
Great video, you did a good job at choosing common german products. Rating as a german: 1: Great! 2: ok 3: both brands are great 4: nice gift when it's local 5: very common with latkes where I live 6: funny, I didn't know it's something special 7: funny, I didn't know it's something special 8: funny, I didn't know it's something special 9: great, very common in germany but I think it's from Italy 10: great 11: great 12: great 13: only good marzipan is from "lübecker marzipan" 14: nothing special 15: nothing special 16: great 17: (can't rate that) 18: nice handcrafted
If you dont like black licorice dont buy haribo colorado, buy phantasia instead. Mamba and hitschler are also nice as well. Mamba magic stix and hitschlers hitschies are as chewy candy
Interesting choices - I know it's difficult because you can't bring anything fresh or too delicate for travel, so you got many things from your daily experience. The ornament suggests that you're pregnant?! Congratulations! Where are the Überraschungseier? Also, why not walk that extra mile and get some really high end chocolates (e.g. Rausch) for them so they learn what sort of abomination Hershey's really is? My experience suggests that US ladies are overwhelmed of the quality of the makeup products you can get at dm - at very affordable prices, so why not have a look there, too? Oh, and: "Zúckerrübensìrup" has the main stress on the first syllable and the secondary stress on the penultimate syllable.
I like most of the choices but I would’ve loved to see a little less Maggi, Milka, Dr. oetker and other big brands and perhaps some artisanal or locally made stuff from small manufacturers too! Like nice hand made chocolates or jams etc… I feel like this was a very American selection of German foods rather than a German selection. But maybe that was the point?
@@AtheistDD Not me, not my relatives, not my friends, no one I know buys a ton of Maggi etc to cook with... At most, the people I know would use it for emergencies. But definitely not your regular weeknight dinner.
03:00 Vanillin zucker =/= Vanilla Sugar. Vanilla Sugar = Vanillezucker. Vanillin is artificial vanilla flavour. You can make Vanillezucker yourself very easily: just mix vanilla into a glass of sugar, maybe stick the pods in as well, and wait a while.
What's missing: The egg breaker (Eiersollbruchstellenverursacher) and the egg peeper (Eierpiekser). By the way: In my opinion, Oreo is the most overrated sweet in the whole world. I tried Oreo once. The cream was ok, but the cookie tasted completely burnt.
Aren't customs or health authorities bothered by things like honey? In any case, you are not allowed to have any of it with you when you enter the EU. They are afraid of bee epidemics...
ehm. vanillin sugar is not the same as vanilla sugar. Vanilla Sugar is made from real vanilla, while vanillin sugar is made from vanilla-like aromas. Thats why there is a price difference.
Many of your product choices are low quality. Take the vanilla suger for exsmple. This sugar contains exactly 0% real vanilla. It is 100% artificial. But we have vanilla sugar with real vanilla. Have a look in the organic products section at a supermarket or go to a dedicsted organic supermarket. Of course you will see that the real vanilla sugar is more costly as vanilla is an expensive spice. Are you still in germany? If yes, it would be a pleasure for me to go shopping with you and show you the better alternatives for your products that don‘t use artificial ingredients.
Please tell me wheat I can bring that will pass customs 😂 and doesn’t cost a lot of money. I’m up for suggestions. Plus I got a lot of little cousins, nephews and nieces that would love to try German chocolate
Some pretty sad choice in this video... many artificial things with harmful or super unnatural ingredients in the first part. There a are so much better things in the world, like vanilla sugar from the same brand with real vanilla in the sugar instead of artifical vanilla aroma. And calling Maggi a "seasoning" is an understatement... its more like a chemical mix for people that cant cook and need aroma booster with msg.
How someone can be so negative about a person sharing things that they love or think would be fun from one culture to another never fails to surprise me. I encourage you to make your own video.
@@brittanyalaine I really don't know what is fun about claiming that such an unnatural stuff is a cool product to buy in germany. If you show these items, you need to be aware that there are people outside who don't like them and also say their personal HONEST opinion about those. I also give you a tip: I encourage you to stop making videos if you just want to see comments that YOU like to read or that favor you.
@kaddy0306 Wow. Were you raised by wolves? You can easily state your honest opinion in a polite manner but you just sound bitter and patronizing. She introduces her favorite gifts from Germany and has every right to do so without your approval.

Vanillin is very common in sweden as well. There it is sold in bigger packages.
This was fun to watch.
Interesting what you find worthy of bringing back to the US to let your people try.
Enjoy their company!😊

Now I want Senfeier. I loved them so much growing up in northern Germany
Thanks for the tips very useful
My pleasure! Thanks so much for watching 💕
most of the products are my favorites. I like this video🎉😊
The Bahlsen cookies are even available with Baileys. These are super delicious I always have them at home for movie nights with my husband.
the "zuckerrübensirup" also comes with apples,called "apfelkraut" same brand,same pack.its awesome on pancakes and a bit cinnamon on top.
both even good on a slice of bread (Stuten) with Quark....
It is also good for cooking when you need a sweetener. It also darkens what you cook.
Oh yum!!
@@McGhinch i use it,when im making bread.gives the crust i nice brown look and its kinda shimmering.
I‘ll make homemade granola with Zuckerrübensirup. It‘s sooo good

I miss nn your mustard (senf) collaction the süßen senf (sweet mustard)!^^
Its typical in babarian to white saussiges.
You can easily make your own fresh vanilla sugar by putting a vanilla bean into your sugar container 😉
Try the Milka Noisette, it's the best from Milka.
You're right! I was a Ritter Sport guy, my whole life. But I dislike Milka, exept the Noisette...
Everything you showed is available here, made in Germany. I just had a Ritter Sport yesterday. I was hoping to see unique items.
Powdered mustard egg sauce mix, seriously? If you know how to make a roux, just add mustard, sugar, salt and pepper, and a hint of nutmeg...
It’s the experience, it’s always cooler to get a product especially in another language and try it yourself! Of course home made is always better ☺️
yeeah,the toffifee..cant stop until the box is empty...
It’s a problem 😂
@@brittanyalainelol... Get a dog! That makes you move and it's very German...

Hello, you can even take fresh bread with you, but only in your checked suitcase.
However, it will be confiscated when you land Stateside. Just eat the loaf on the plane before you land.

Vanillin or Vanillezucker in the little paper bag or glass bottle is so praktisch.
It made learning to bake so much easier when I was a kid.

I agre with all of them except artificial vanilla and the soups. There are better natural options. .. just my opinion.
so the onlything worth bringing from germany is food, mostly sweets? not egg opener, früschtückbrettchen or bolerwagen?
Maggi (and Nestle) are Swiss
Don’t take the Vanillin sugar, better the Bourbon Vanille sugar, then it is with original Vanille
Vanillin is artificial vanilla.
To get vanilla suggar, you can put a real vanilla pod in a jar of suggar and wait a few days.
What's missing: The egg breaker (Eiersollbruchstellenverursacher) and the egg peeper (Eierpiekser).
By the way: In my opinion, Oreo is the most overrated sweet in the whole world. I tried Oreo once. The cream was ok, but the cookie tasted completely burnt.
Oh I didn’t think of the egg breaker! That’s such a good tip!
@@brittanyalaine Yep! But you have to tell them, how you boil a soft egg. Otherwise, the tool is not useful...
Aren't customs or health authorities bothered by things like honey?
In any case, you are not allowed to have any of it with you when you enter the EU. They are afraid of bee epidemics...
You are allowed ☺️
And rightly so.
I've also seen someone on YT who likes to bring stuff from german drug stores to the US 😂
vanilin isn't vanilla its artificial flavor.
ehm. vanillin sugar is not the same as vanilla sugar. Vanilla Sugar is made from real vanilla, while vanillin sugar is made from vanilla-like aromas. Thats why there is a price difference.

Why do you buy so much crap for your family instead of high quality food
Brussels sprouts to nibble on?
Would you mind being more speciffic? What kind of qualitiy food?
How about you let people decide for themselves what they they deem to be "of quality" and worth bringing home to their family?
It has to last the transport ... and it's for Americans. So you bring candy.
