      I love Franzbrötchen, too. After a hard week there is nothing better than starting the weekend with a Franzbrötchen and a Milchkaffee. :-) It is still unknown, who invented Franzbrötchen. A theory is that French troops (Hamburg was occupied from 1806-1824 by Napoleon) brought it to Hamburg.

    The price of Krabbenbrötchen usually depends on the catch. The less shrimps the fishermen catch, the more expensive they are. And they are more expensive in tourist hotspots, of course. They usually cost around 6 Euros in the smaller harbours like Büsum or Husum.

      What I'm proud of: no english-spoken person ever asked back, what I just wanted to say! A joung guy in OK once asked me about my accent. "Hamburg, Germany." "I thought you where either english or scottish."
      So I've come a long way. And still will have a accent. My wife has passed away, some years ago. Found a new love.
      And she's australian. Guess, how many times I have to ask her back about what she just said?

    Just because you're close to water, does not mean the fish is local! Krabben are usually flown to North Africa or the Eastern states for "puhlen", de-shelling, treated with sth unhealthy so they stay "fresh" and flown to the distributors. The "fresh" shrimps are finally sold to the end consumer about 4 days after catching.
    My teacher at catering college described aal suppe like this: Open the fridge, look at the leftovers
    Dat kommt aal in - platt fuer das kommt alles rein/ all the stuff goes in the soup.

The Matjesbrotchen looked good because I love a fresh fish sandwich but I also love shrimp so the Nordseekrabbenbrotchen looked delicious as well. The Labskaus reminded me a little of corned beef hash which traditionally ,here in the States, is also served with a fried egg on top but the Labskaus looked much tastier.

    4:33 You know that Matjes is a young and not adult herring that has to be brined some time? So it's not fresh from the boat. Anyway, the Matjes in Germany is heavy on sugar side and not even close to being comparable to the Dutch Matjes (Hollandse Nieuwe). Anyway, if you ask me, Bismarck herring is the better choice for Fischbrötchen. Real matjes should be enjoyed on its own.
    Helgoland is a penisnsula? Come on, dude. It's 40 miles/60km off the German coast, our only deep sea island. Aalsuppe (eel soup) actually didn't contain Aal in the beginning. It was just a soup made from leftovers where "alles" (everything) went in. "Alles Suppe" somehow turned into "Aalsuppe" so people, thought "What the heck, so might put eel in as well".
    12:15 - the same fish as the Matjes: herring. Just a different preperation. For Labskaus you use this horrible canned stuff that smells like dog food, nothing like real corned beef made from a brisket, brined and smoked. Btw, bro - what is a nice red flavor?
    If I was to recommend true Hamburg classics, try "Rundstück warm", Ochsenstert in Madeira oder Pannfisch.

    I think I know what the Labskaus reminds you off. Corned beef hash. Every time I eat it it's reminiscent of that, which makes sense given its ingredients. But especially with the fried egg, you get that corned beef hash breakfast feel. 😊

    I was just in Hamburg, and wish I would have tried the Fischbrotchen while I was there! I did however become a big fan of Franzbroetchen! Have you gone to Bremen yet? Might be a good trip, and nearby Bremerhaven was also interesting (museums, food, etc). Thanks for sharing, as always.

    Rolmops is a bit pickled herring. Maatjes (Germans call it matjes.. but nahhh nicht richtig :-p ) A "maatje" is the bucket the herring is cured in. So it is herring from the bucket :-)

    So nice to see your food experiences in Hamburg. We went to a fish restaurant that was just off the Elbe River. I really like Scholle (not sure if that is spelled right). I believe it may be called European plaice in English. Very nice not fishy tasting. When we had Labskau at home growing up here in Canada, we made mashed potatoes and then mashed in Corned Beef and finely diced pickles. Our version was more potato with some Corned Beef rather than a lot of beef like was shown in your video. It is a very hearty meal.

    The lobscouse is a kind of corned beef hash with egg the fish on the side is a European variety it's also made in New England , it's usually got a pickle or a relish / chutney as a side different versions are made all over the world with different sides .

  • @HighlyAkicktive
    @HighlyAkicktive 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    next time you're in Hamburg try the Fischbrotchen at the Firschmarkt, either Fischbeisl or Fabios Fisch. Less expensive and not a tourist trap ;) And if you wanna check out "urige" restaurants/diners definitely go Veddeler Fischgaststätte (closed atm, unfortunately) or Erikas Eck, it won't get any more Hamburg than that. Generally the whole city is plastered with good restaurants at decent prices, if you're not necessarily looking into traditional German food.

    labskaus has got to be the most underrated foods in hamburg,nowadays , alongside grünkohl...both are not the most pleasing dishes to the eye but once it makes contact with your taste senses..things make sense. a flavour bouquet to please your taste buds..and especially wholesome when its cold out side.

    Corned beef hash with a sunny side up egg is very popular in America. I never thought to serve it with fish, though. The fish in Hamburg looks amazing!

    What you had is _not_ a (typical) Franzbrötchen. They are round like a snail. Akin to a cinnamon roll but flat. Go to the Hauptbahnhof and get it there on the Südsteg. Also try the ones with apple.

    If you currently want to buy Büsumer Krabben in the Supermarket, they cost more than 4 Euro for only 100 gramm. And this looks like more then only 100 gramm and is fresh...add that you are in a touristy area, and the price is no surprise.

  • @ChrissCorner92
    @ChrissCorner92 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    After explaining the Labskaus, it sounds pretty tasty. Didn't look appetizing at first. But if it's mixed with potatoes and onions, I might try it one day. Never had beet root juice before. I've tried beets and I find them to have a very earthy taste. I don't like it, but I don't hate it either.
    My favorite thing you guys ordered was the shrimp brötchen. That looked very tasty.

  • @dappiedocious
    @dappiedocious 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    If you ever come back, try the Franzbrötchen from Franz & Friends (they have a branch at the Hbf). They have different flavors/variants, like a toffee/caramel one, chocolate chip, banana, nuts, and even a milchreis one.

    Matjes are cured raw herring. The best way to eat herring in the world. And certainly not brought into Hamburg fresh every day. But Hamburg has a good fish market and they also have the Sunday Fischmarkt, which is not running due to Covid, but offers everything from fisch to clothes Sunday from 5:00 am onwards

    Two interesting semi-seasonal dishes are: German Gruenkohl (usually Fall/Winter); and pfifferlinge (a small oragneish mushroom) earlier in the year (late summer). The latter have been somewhat restricted because of the Chernobyl fallout; but last time I was living there you could still get them. Very tasty little fungi! Gruenkohl done right is amazing, but a little work-intensive.

    Best Fischbrötchen you can get is on the Fischmarkt on Sundays from between 4.00 A.M. and 7 A.M.
    Yeah, that early.
    By 7 A.M. the fresh food is almost out of stock.
    For more sit-down restaurants and fish, go to the Portugiesenviertel, the Portugese Quarter. You will find a lot of Portugese / hispanic based restaurants there offering the freshest fish in Hamburg. But not only fish, but meat as well, for those no-fish-please-people.

    That looks like homemade corned beef hash and I like mine with egg. My grandma got me started on it over 50years ago. And my friends from Ireland. Went to Hamburg last year And I remember them going on and on about the soul you ate. I would really like to try the sandwiches you guys have. And I would pay that price for a sandwich with that much fish in it. If course it would be two meals for me. So that makes the price not so bad,right? Love y'all videos and can't wait to see you guys soon! Stay safe and happy!xx

    In der Aalsupoe sind Backpflaumen (Trockenpflaumen)= prunes. Die original Aalsuppe musste keinen Aal enthalten. Es bedeutet aalns in (Schreibweise kenne ich leider nicht), alles drin. Es war eine Restesuppe.
    Ich liebe auch Franzbrötchen (ohne Gedöns) und Matjesbrötchen. Der Fisch ist meistens sehr gut. Leider lassen manchmal die Brötchen zu wünschen übrig. Scholle Finkenwerder Art kann ich auch empfehlen. Ich liebe auch euer Christmas Market Video.

      Ironically it's cheaper to fly them to Morocca and back than have them peeled in Germany by a machine. The freshest and cheapest option is to buy unpeeled shrimps and peel them yourself.
