Funny story. When my mom went to Australia, about 30 years ago, she somehow decided to bring 'gestampte muisjes' with her for our family there. Somehow the drugs dog was very interested. First the handler pulled the dog away, my mom being an elderly woman but it came back so they asked her to empty her bags and out came the 'gestampte muisjes'. Now, it looks like something different, lol. The man asked her what it was and all the could think was to literally translate it into 'crushed mice' what the situation made more confusing, lol. At the end they understood it was a Dutch thing and innocent. But at least we have the story to tell, lol.
With the vlavlip, instead of cherries (never heard of it even), just use karvan instead. You can even choose your own flavor karvan. But strawberry or red-fruit is the best in Vlaflip With the bugles, get some "smeerkaas" and dip the bugles in it. Add some Karvan to karnemelk, to make a great fruity milk drink. The applestroop goes GREAT on a buttered sandwich
Ooooh, I just got where the confusion set in. When they said cherry syrup, I was like 'yep, that's right, syrup. Why are they getting it from preserved cherries, though?' But it's not right. Because despite sounding similar the English translation for the 'siroop' you use for a vlaflip isn't 'syrup', but 'grenadine'.
@@RvEijndhoven Syrup is actually the correct word, but I would have been more specific and said lemonade syrup. renadine is more of a sweetened juice concentrate for cocktails.
For all the non dutchies... Karvan cevitam is a lemonade syrup brand 😅 with dozens of different flavours, that is a standard part of the Dutch household. Almost everyone has a bottle on hand for surprise visitors 😂 of like us, for a daily glass of lemonade
We are moving back to NL (Dalfsen near Zwolle) after 11 years in the US (Seattle) you are one of my favorite channels to watch and getting super excited to get back to NL and enjoy all the stuff you are talking about. It's so weird to lose sight of some of the beautiful things from NL.
Instead of using cherry juice for the vlaflip, we used plain lemonade syrup (limonade in Dutch) when I was a kid. It brought back a childhood memory for me, haha! 🍒🍋
When we used to have school milk in primary school most of the 30 kids had semi-skimmed, a couple full fatty and chocolate milk and only 2 of us, so that includes me, had karnemelk. Even for Dutchies it's an acquired taste. De Ruijter used to produce old Dutch aniseed cubes which you could use for making hot aniseed milk with, till their machine broke down and they couldn't get replacement parts anymore. They replaced the product with really expensive sachets, but you can do a cheaper version of the milk by using De Ruijter 'anijshagel' or the 'gestampte muisjes' you've got there, but likely the 'anijshagel' comes closest to those cubes, nutritional value and ingredient-wise (the cubes consisted of sugar, dextrose, aniseed extract and hardened plant-based fat, 0.5g per 100g).
3:50 the bubble variant is in a different part of the supermarket. No bubbles is in the fruit juice aisle whereas bubbles is in the carbonated beverages aisle, were cola and fanta lie.
The appelstroop is also great when you have mild iron-defficiency. Years ago my GP told me to eat 1-2 sandwiches with appelstroop a week (a bit thicker than on the video) to prevent a new (massive) iron-defficiency. So after I got medical iron tablets, I have taken my two sandwiches with appelstroop a week. No probleem ever since.
Lays used to be called Smiths in the Netherlands before Pepsico bought them which was a company started by Dutch patoto farmers togerther with Frank Smith from the UK.
Not entirely true. Smiths was founded and started in the UK in 1919. Only in 1958 Dutch farmers contacted Smiths to make chips in NL. In austalia it is still called Smith’s.
Just a tip you can get the Herring without pickles as well its called Zure Haringen , extra tip eat it with some of the union rings from the bottom of the jar , some people put them on a slice of bread put some of the pickled union rings on top and then eat it by folding the bread , use a plate to prevent dripping of the juices :D And most important without the pickle you taste more of the herring
We used to make vlaflip with aanlenglimonade (sirop to make lemonade) just a littlebit of sirop. Van Karvan Cevitam the rozenbottel one that you can stil find at the babyfood isle in the green glass bottle.
Well, never eaten the Danish Chef Cheese Spread (I am actually dutch but live in Norway). Looks like norwegian cheese in a tube we habe here, often with bacon or ham flavour, but things like jalapenon flavour (surprisingly not hot at all, norwegians hate hot food). Those tubes are delicious on bread bit I can imagine on Bugles😅
Lovely seeing another video! For the Bugles I've heard it's really good when you combine it with "Heks'nkaas", which is a; creamcheese, fresh herb and garlic dip. Karnemelk is probably known better as buttermilk, although from what I've seen online the US buttermilk usually looks way thicker. And I don't know if the comment section is the place to suggest snacks, but as I was late with the community post last time I'll suggest some stuff right here (some of the stuff is best found in Friesland/Groningen) - Friese/Groninger Droge worst (dried sauage, borrelsnack. Make sure to remove the skin) - Heksn'kaas (as stated above, dip it with bugles or cheese) - Beerenburg (Herby alcoholic beverage from Friesland, similar to Jaegermeister. Very good with some cola) - Fryske Dumkes (Frisian thumbs, they're cookies) - Sukerlatten (Sugarplanks(?), also a thick cookie) - Hete bliksem (It's a stamppot with apples, there are plenty of recipes online!)

When i was a kid Vlaflip we did as "cocktails". Longdrink glass, layer Yogurt and Vla then last you pour in lemonade sirup (ranja siroop, karvan cevitam type sirup), flavour doesnt matter as much mostly personal preference. You used sirup from conserced fruit, which while similar not quite the same. Bugles are great when you combined them with something like Paturain cream cheese with herbs. Karnemelk = Buttermilk , this is usually drank with breakfast or lunch instead of normal milk, good for guthealth, also great for baking. Appelstroop = basically molasses from apples. Great with bacon pancakes. Vlammetjes are based of Loempia/Eggrolls/Springrolls.
I am not sure if you guys already tried it, can't remember a video watching you try it. But, Lays chips (paprika is the best for this) and/or cucumber. With "carnaval" saus. This are those dipping sauces you make with mayonaise and water. Seriously a treat to eat :) Also the Lays Ketchup chips in my eyes are still amazing.

Appelstroop, is made of apples cooked with some sugar and water, and a little bit of lemon juice. With the honger winter in NL (WOII) as people needed to resort to eating plant bulbs, in the south (limburg) they had appelstroop to get them through. Zuurvlees is from Limburg. You can also have perenstroop, or a mix of both. Appelstroop met Limburgse kaas of roggenbrood. Or just appelstroop met kaas op brood.
i love these types of videos. not just cause of the reactions to the food, but also the attempts to pronounce the words XD also, sisi is litterally pepsico's version of fanta just like 7up is pepsico's version of sprite, and pepsi cola is pepsico's version of coca cola
Smoked eel is absolute S-tier, but it must be fatty, lean is meh. I hardly ever eat it because it is so damn expensive ! But sometimes Nettorama has some at a great discount...and they are pretty good.
You should eat the “stroop” on “bruin brood” or “roggebrood” with cheese (i prefer “jong belegen kaas”, but thats is taste). If you want you also can aply some butter 😉
I've learned that Bugles are Dutch. They were sold by Smiths, a Dutch chip maker that was set up by a Dutch potato farmer and a British chips distribution company. It is now sold under the Lays brand of PepsiCo.
You should make bitterkoekjes pudding with the bitterkoekjes. You cook custard with milk, break the bitterkoekjes in pieces and add to the custard pudding when it's still simmering. Then keep stirring till the cookies have basically fallen apart completely. Eat warm or cold. If you want to eat it cold you put some cling film on top op the pudding so you don't get the thick layer on top. It's really delicious.
Buggles are even better if you fill them with some of Danish cheese spread, its in a tube with a white large cap that looks lik a chef head, it has a chef on the package.It's kept in the cooling somewhere. They have 2 flavors, natural and with herbs it think( both good). A friends taught me this ages ago and i got hooked on that combo. Enjoy !
Get the pie topping type of cherries for the vlaflip, that has a thick syrup. That is when you like cherry flavour, that has a much stronger cherry flavour.
Congratz!! Appelstroop and vlavlip combi is a true invention. You have the right to name it now. I have tried it and it is truly a new "Dutch" taste. It is on my favorite list now. Send the receipt to Albert Heijn, they will make it.
A lot of people recommended adding limonade syrup to the vlaflip, but if you get it, also add and mix some with it with the karnemelk! My mom used to make that for us when I was a kid and it's very good
You should eat the Bugles nacho cheese with Heks’nkaas (Heksenkaas). Eating Bugles pure is not that great but dipped in Heks’nkaas it is very lekker. ❤❤❤
I have another tip my parents used to give us when I was young: Vla whipped up with whipped cream and spekjes (fluffy candy) cut up and mixed in. super childrens dessert!
wij aten vroeger altijd vla-flip met een scheutje frambose limonade siroop en een beschuitje in stukjes er door heen. In Nederland dronk ik altijd karnemelk bij m'n ontbijt en lunch, je kunt het helaas niet krijgen in Portugal. Jullie moeten Choba chocoladeboter & Bebogeen pasta proberen als broodbeleg.
In Noorwegen heb je ook geen karnemelk. Wel kulturmelk, smaskt naar een yoghurt karnemelk mix, en vind ik beter dan karnemelk. Nederlandse karnemelk is echt zuur, de Oostenrijkse die ik ken is voller en zoeter.
Yeahh, i just love the reactions on dutch food and snacks, did you ever think about learning the dutch people some typical American food or snacks and how to make them with dutch groceries?
@@buncharted Yes ive seen that, but sort of a cooking guide, a how to make our own cookies the American way, or how to make the best oven style slowcook meat of some sort... I dont know what you bake or make with grandma kind of cooking. Nothing out of packaging, just raw materials. Would love to see that.
Vla flip: You wouldn't put the syrup from 'fruit on syrop' in it. You would either use something like the concentrated syrup of 'aanmaaklimonade' (The tin cans like from Karvan Cévitam also called limonadesiroop) in it or the syrup from the small bottles with strawberry syrup that you would also put on icecream or pudding.
Karnemelk tip: add a little sirop (like strawberry or something.) Just add like 1/10 to a glas and stir. It makes Karnemelk much more drinkable. I used to drink this as a kid.
11:20 I said this before: watch the ingredients. The original is with almonds, high quality versions (like that local bakery you mentioned, or the larger "bitterkoeken" from AH's bakery department) still have almonds, but the ones you ate have apricot seeds. You get what you pay for.
Karnemelk - I drank that a lot as child. Later in life developed an allergy for cow milk protein and so there's no dairy in my diet. I sort-of loved it. At some point we started to annually go on a holiday outside the Netherlands and lo and behold, we found the karnemelk in Germany and Switzerland much tastier. Probably has to do with the grasses and the abundance of flowers that would still be in these.
@@apveening - my recollection is about well before 1968. My recollection of the Dutch meadows was these were full of flat, watery bovine excrement, medically called diarrhoea - from unhealthy food, that is.
@@buncharted Bebogeen is basically a caramel spread. Great for kids, but because your taste changes as you get older, adults don't like it that much. Same goes for kokosbrood by the way.
For me the rolmops is one of the options for when I'm looking for a snack. You know...sometimes you want something sweet, sometimes salty. An opened jar stays ok for quite a while in the fridge.
Alex with the powdered Muisjes on his mustache 😂😂😂That's the funniest thing since very early on where Alex slid off the sofa. The cat always provides humor too! 😼❤
You can also use the aardbeien sirop. But I don’t know it’s still available in shops. Instead of that you can use Karvan Cévitam sirop. Is even better.
@@bunchartedso one really confusing thing for English speakers is that "stroop" and "siroop" are different things. "stroop" is sugary and thick, to put on pancakes or bread. "siroop" is to be watered down into lemonade or used in a desert. There's no such thing as "aardbeienstroop" but there is "aardbeiensiroop". Still, appelstroop is even thicker than suikerstroop, I guess because of the pectin?
@@bunchartedyou can tova- or maybe nowadays branded as hero - dessertsausen in any supermarket in the baking products section. Comes in cute little bottles in a variety of flavors: chocolate, caramel, strawberry and maybe others (not sure). Ideal for topping puddings or small pastries.
@@spinozatheobvious626i once made aardbeienstroop on accident. Wanted to make strawberry jam but i got distracted and massively overcooked it until it became stroop. Not something you would find in a supermarket. It was good though.
Appelstroop with Brie is is very good! Also on bread , my mother in law had this on her bread for breakfast. It has a lot of iron, it is made of pure concentrated apples.
You can also drink the karnemelk with siroop (syrup) the one you mix with water to sweeten the flavor (not the one on your pancakes.) 😁 and the herring goes really well on bread sweet sour is my favorite. 😊
i'd recommend gestampte muisjes on hot freshly toasted bread with butter. the gestampte muisjes will melt into the butter nice taste and texture :) Karnemelk is buttermilk, and appelstroop *is* apple butter.
Gestampte muisjes is made from Anijs (anise) its the same as the normal muisjes but made in powder form. pretty much the same as sugar and powder sugar.
Oh y'all should really try Schuddebuikjes from Bolletje on a slice of bread with creamy butter or instead of butter with thin slices of banana. They're speculaas flavored and I love it for breakfast :)
By the way. Bugles are eaten with dip here. Mostly creamcheese based. Or, if you want to get adventurous, sweet chili sauce, or, my favourite, plain sambal oelek, and washed away with plenty of ayran. ❤
Nice video again! Rolmops is actually German of origin (rollmops, roll -> wheel, mops -> a type of dog, its snout looks the same as a rolmops), but pretty common in the Netherlands too. Many people won't like it, it's a very acquired taste. The germans also have more good herring varieties, like the 'heringsalat' (herring salad), i think you can buy those at Dutch Aldi's/Lidl's too.
Not sure if you ever visisted but I recommend checking out Schiedam for a trip. We have a co-op grocery store museum where you can buy old school dutch sweets you cannot buy elsewhere anymore, dutch gin (jenever) museum, AND the tallest windmills of the netherlands
My dad always made us vlaflip when I was younger and thought he made this genius invention. Until later in life they started selling pre-made vlaflip in the store and I realized he did not invent it🙈 he always used strawberry limonadesiroop for the vlaflip. I always mixed it though, to create a nice pink mix
Kokosbrood (candy) - look at it through the lense of the Dutch (children) school sandwiches: Hagelslag, Vlokken, Muisjes, Gestampte muisjes, Kokosbrood.
Well... about fish in a jar: here are a few to try also: - Braadharing - Cooked mossels in vinegar - Smoked mossels in oil - Kabeljauwlever (Cod liver)(canned)....

The Bugles should be eaten with the Danish cheese tube. The tube that looks like a chef.
Or Monchou.
I eat it with paturain or boursin
I used smeerkaas (quit salt) and then especially the 'sambal' smeerkaas.
sambal smeerkaas ideale dip
Haha yes i was expecting this tube
With the vlavlip, instead of cherries (never heard of it even), just use karvan instead. You can even choose your own flavor karvan. But strawberry or red-fruit is the best in Vlaflip

so true! I actually don't think any other brand comes even close to the Enkhuizer, the original jodekoeken brand
I was so confused that they even have a home brand xD

Instead of using cherry juice for the vlaflip, we used plain lemonade syrup (limonade in Dutch) when I was a kid. It brought back a childhood memory for me, haha! 🍒🍋

Roosvicee
Yes scrupules. Like carvan sevitam

Im nl and muisjes means mouse but dont woory not made of mice
Gestampte muisjes are terrific on warm toast with butter, so it kinda melts into the butter. Argh so gooood
Oh I forgot. Try the appelstroop on pancakes.
It's a bit of hassle to put on, but it's so delicious
If the pancake is still very hot, the appelstroop will "melt" a little bit and it's spreadable.
Eeeww. I hate appelstroop.
@@MartijnPennings Yummy. I prefer my pancakes with bacon and cheese!
I has to be a flat crepe style pancake though. Not fluffy american. Flat as can be. Milk eggs flower

No bubbles is in the fruit juice aisle whereas bubbles is in the carbonated beverages aisle, were cola and fanta lie.
Tip: put the bitterkoekjes in a bowl of vanillevla en keep it overnight. Delicious.
You should put WAY MORE muisjes onto the beschuit. But I would try it on a bun next time (bolletje). That way it's way sweeter.
You should eat the bugels with the danish chef cheese. it's cream cheese in a tube (with a chef hat) different flavours to choose

I would have buttered (probably using margarine) the bread for the "kokosbrood".
Roomboter onder het kokosbrood.
Margarine 😮😢😢😢
Yeah the coarse texture definitely requires a bit of lubrication xD
Lays used to be called Smiths in the Netherlands before Pepsico bought them which was a company started by Dutch patoto farmers togerther with Frank Smith from the UK.

Smiths is van origine Brits, Google ik net. Niks Nederlands aan tot ze in 1967 hier ook een fabriek neerzetten.
for the vlaflip you use the lemonade syrop that you usually dilude, the cherries you bought are usually for baking pies
we avoided the lemonade syrup since it has sucralose in it 😅😅😅
@@buncharted There is lemonade syrop for sale whiich is purely made of fruit, like bonbébé.
14:38 ohnoo ALWAYS butter haha 😜mmm kokosbrood vond ik zo lekker altijd, ik ga morgen naar de Appie hiervoor 😍
Quality content! Rolmops is the best with Fries roggebrood, and plain Greek yogurt.
Goeiemorgen! Hey Alex do you have mustache I never noticed! 😂 great video again guys!
You should make bitterkoekjes pudding with the bitterkoekjes.
You cook custard with milk, break the bitterkoekjes in pieces and add to the custard pudding when it's still simmering. Then keep stirring till the cookies have basically fallen apart completely. Eat warm or cold. If you want to eat it cold you put some cling film on top op the pudding so you don't get the thick layer on top.
It's really delicious.
Icecold karnemelk is delicious on a hot summer day.
Even more if you mix some fruit syrup in it: then you get Yoki Drink!
It is also delicious with fresh orange juice, 2/3 karnemelk and 1/3 orange juice
Half karnemelk half orange juice is delicious!
Buggles are even better if you fill them with some of Danish cheese spread, its in a tube with a white large cap that looks lik a chef head, it has a chef on the package.It's kept in the cooling somewhere. They have 2 flavors, natural and with herbs it think( both good). A friends taught me this ages ago and i got hooked on that combo. Enjoy !
Get the pie topping type of cherries for the vlaflip, that has a thick syrup. That is when you like cherry flavour, that has a much stronger cherry flavour.
Congratz!! Appelstroop and vlavlip combi is a true invention. You have the right to name it now.
I have tried it and it is truly a new "Dutch" taste. It is on my favorite list now. Send the receipt to Albert Heijn, they will make it.
🥳🥳🥳
Pickeled herring is great when you come home from work , and craving something to eat before dinner!
That rolmops at the end is a bit of an acquired taste. For some reason it is also a traditional way to serve herring in Warsaw.
Germans are also nuts about rollmops, so I guess there is just a north sea Baltic rollmops continuum.
@@spinozatheobvious626 Might be, I was a bit surprised by seeing the Dutch spelling in Warsaw as that doesn't really fit Polish grammar.
@@spinozatheobvious626do not forget the Swedish: gaffel bitter, different tastes in canned herring.
A lot of people recommended adding limonade syrup to the vlaflip, but if you get it, also add and mix some with it with the karnemelk! My mom used to make that for us when I was a kid and it's very good
When I was growing up in Minnesota, we always had pickled herring at Christmas. Put it on a plain Triscuit and it’s amazing!
Karnemelk taste great at hot summer days. Really refreshing.
You should eat the Bugles nacho cheese with Heks’nkaas (Heksenkaas). Eating Bugles pure is not that great but dipped in Heks’nkaas it is very lekker. ❤❤❤
Rolmops is so good!! For nexttime i would recommend to get it at the fishmarket, even better❤
I have another tip my parents used to give us when I was young: Vla whipped up with whipped cream and spekjes (fluffy candy) cut up and mixed in. super childrens dessert!
wij aten vroeger altijd vla-flip met een scheutje frambose limonade siroop en een beschuitje in stukjes er door heen. In Nederland dronk ik altijd karnemelk bij m'n ontbijt en lunch, je kunt het helaas niet krijgen in Portugal. Jullie moeten Choba chocoladeboter & Bebogeen pasta proberen als broodbeleg.
Lol, Bebogeen. Trouwens, als je yoghurt verdunt met melk krijg je een soort karnemelk, misschien handig in Portugal?
In Noorwegen heb je ook geen karnemelk. Wel kulturmelk, smaskt naar een yoghurt karnemelk mix, en vind ik beter dan karnemelk. Nederlandse karnemelk is echt zuur, de Oostenrijkse die ik ken is voller en zoeter.
Verkopen ze geen " lette fermentada" in Portugal?
Choba chocoladeboter is lekker.
Als kind vond ik dat echt verrukeluk...maar de smaak van nu is iets anders.
For the vla flip you need rosvice syrup (in glass bottle). For the bugles also try the cheese spread from danish chef.
For the vlaflip you are supposed to use siroop that we make ranja with .most known brand is carvan sevitan
Lol, I love how you rate the food with stroopwafels
Voor extra smaak, eet de Vlammetjes met wat sweet chilly saus.😊 erg lekker. 😋 thanks for the episode!
Yeahh, i just love the reactions on dutch food and snacks, did you ever think about learning the dutch people some typical American food or snacks and how to make them with dutch groceries?
we sort of did this a few months ago! th-cam.com/video/YeID2tbuAkQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=B7Sm6jWLtDjPqUC-
@@buncharted
Yes ive seen that, but sort of a cooking guide, a how to make our own cookies the American way, or how to make the best oven style slowcook meat of some sort...
I dont know what you bake or make with grandma kind of cooking.
Nothing out of packaging, just raw materials.
Would love to see that.
Vla flip: You wouldn't put the syrup from 'fruit on syrop' in it. You would either use something like the concentrated syrup of 'aanmaaklimonade' (The tin cans like from Karvan Cévitam also called limonadesiroop) in it or the syrup from the small bottles with strawberry syrup that you would also put on icecream or pudding.
Sisi is actually just a translation of 'ja ja' (yes yes)
(I remember a old commercial where they sang 'si-si, ja-ja')
Maybe a play on si meaning yes and the si from sinasappel ?
Karnemelk tip: add a little sirop (like strawberry or something.) Just add like 1/10 to a glas and stir. It makes Karnemelk much more drinkable. I used to drink this as a kid.
My favourite is sinaasappelsiroop. Opa brought that home from work. He worked at Hero. And the other Ops at Nibbit.
Love your video about dutch food .... Subbed .... keep it up you'll get there .... after appelstroop have you tried BEBOGEEN ??? it goes on bread too.
11:20 I said this before: watch the ingredients. The original is with almonds, high quality versions (like that local bakery you mentioned, or the larger "bitterkoeken" from AH's bakery department) still have almonds, but the ones you ate have apricot seeds. You get what you pay for.
Karnemelk - I drank that a lot as child. Later in life developed an allergy for cow milk protein and so there's no dairy in my diet. I sort-of loved it.
At some point we started to annually go on a holiday outside the Netherlands and lo and behold, we found the karnemelk in Germany and Switzerland much tastier. Probably has to do with the grasses and the abundance of flowers that would still be in these.
More likely because Dutch karnemelk isn't a rest product of butter production anymore, in Germany it still is.
@@apveening - my recollection is about well before 1968. My recollection of the Dutch meadows was these were full of flat, watery bovine excrement, medically called diarrhoea - from unhealthy food, that is.
@@jpdj2715 That food isn't really unhealthy, just way too nutritious and lacking in fibre and German cows are on the same diet.
Wat een leuke video weer! Al eens Bebogeen van de Ruijter op brood geprobeerd? Zo lekker!
nee, nog niet! het klinkt lekker 😋
@@buncharted Bebogeen is basically a caramel spread. Great for kids, but because your taste changes as you get older, adults don't like it that much. Same goes for kokosbrood by the way.
For me the rolmops is one of the options for when I'm looking for a snack. You know...sometimes you want something sweet, sometimes salty. An opened jar stays ok for quite a while in the fridge.
You guys live in Dordrecht? That's so cool! I live in Hardinxveld-Giessendam. :D
Alex with the powdered Muisjes on his mustache 😂😂😂That's the funniest thing since very early on where Alex slid off the sofa. The cat always provides humor too! 😼❤
For your vlaflip traditionally you should use Tova aardbeiensaus, not the cherries.
ah HA! it’s a “saus” not a “stroop”!
You can also use the aardbeien sirop. But I don’t know it’s still available in shops. Instead of that you can use Karvan Cévitam sirop. Is even better.
@@bunchartedso one really confusing thing for English speakers is that "stroop" and "siroop" are different things. "stroop" is sugary and thick, to put on pancakes or bread. "siroop" is to be watered down into lemonade or used in a desert. There's no such thing as "aardbeienstroop" but there is "aardbeiensiroop". Still, appelstroop is even thicker than suikerstroop, I guess because of the pectin?
@@bunchartedyou can tova- or maybe nowadays branded as hero - dessertsausen in any supermarket in the baking products section. Comes in cute little bottles in a variety of flavors: chocolate, caramel, strawberry and maybe others (not sure). Ideal for topping puddings or small pastries.
@@spinozatheobvious626i once made aardbeienstroop on accident. Wanted to make strawberry jam but i got distracted and massively overcooked it until it became stroop. Not something you would find in a supermarket. It was good though.
Shake the karnemelk good before drinking. coconut slice on bread. Hering with Hutspot :)
Fun video thanks.
Appelstroop with Brie is is very good! Also on bread , my mother in law had this on her bread for breakfast. It has a lot of iron, it is made of pure concentrated apples.
The way you ate the bugles, i had the thought of the nibb it rings from Cheetos straight away :)
You can also replace the cherry sirop with fresh fruit or jam 🤗 in the fla vlip
You can also drink the karnemelk with siroop (syrup) the one you mix with water to sweeten the flavor (not the one on your pancakes.) 😁 and the herring goes really well on bread sweet sour is my favorite. 😊
Karnemelk tastes great mixed with fresh orange juice... and the appelstroop is good on a broodje kaas
Ik deed er vroeger vaak wat ranja door. Net Yogi drink. Maar verse sinaasappelsap is inderdaad ook een lekker combi!
When we’re out of fig jam for our cheese platter we use appelstroop too! It’s really good😍
i'd recommend gestampte muisjes on hot freshly toasted bread with butter. the gestampte muisjes will melt into the butter nice taste and texture :)
Karnemelk is buttermilk, and appelstroop *is* apple butter.
Gestampte muisjes is made from Anijs (anise) its the same as the normal muisjes but made in powder form. pretty much the same as sugar and powder sugar.
you can also try the karne melk with siroop. I have always loved that. my personal favourite is with casis.
Oh y'all should really try Schuddebuikjes from Bolletje on a slice of bread with creamy butter or instead of butter with thin slices of banana. They're speculaas flavored and I love it for breakfast :)
Try the karmemelk with any type of squash. Don't forget to stir! You just made your own Yogho yogho!
Karnemelk is also very usefull to marinate chicken to make it even more tender
By the way. Bugles are eaten with dip here. Mostly creamcheese based. Or, if you want to get adventurous, sweet chili sauce, or, my favourite, plain sambal oelek, and washed away with plenty of ayran. ❤
Kokosbrood is crazy to me as a Belgian, it's basically just coconut brittle rocks but flattened. So sugary even as a treat
The appelstroop with vla may be a very good idea! I’m dutch, never tried that before! ❤
Karnemelk is the same as buttermilk. We drink this with a breadmeal..either brrakfast or lunch
Try to mix karnemelk with some fruit syrup (siroop, ranja). It becomes 'Yoki Drink' !
Nice video again! Rolmops is actually German of origin (rollmops, roll -> wheel, mops -> a type of dog, its snout looks the same as a rolmops), but pretty common in the Netherlands too.
Many people won't like it, it's a very acquired taste. The germans also have more good herring varieties, like the 'heringsalat' (herring salad), i think you can buy those at Dutch Aldi's/Lidl's too.
For the karnemelk: maybe try it once on a hot day with fresh orange juice. Super refreshing.
Not sure if you ever visisted but I recommend checking out Schiedam for a trip. We have a co-op grocery store museum where you can buy old school dutch sweets you cannot buy elsewhere anymore, dutch gin (jenever) museum, AND the tallest windmills of the netherlands
My dad always made us vlaflip when I was younger and thought he made this genius invention. Until later in life they started selling pre-made vlaflip in the store and I realized he did not invent it🙈 he always used strawberry limonadesiroop for the vlaflip. I always mixed it though, to create a nice pink mix
😂😂😂
A nice variation is with brown sugar and cinnamon, use a big bowl and a mixer to make it a bit frothy.
the syrup in the vla flip is called grenadine.
Try karnemelk with limonade siroop, like strawberry or raspberry(framboos) taste like a yogurt drink
That's why I put apple sauce (appelmoes) in my vanille vla! And the Vlaflip should be with Roosvicee
Kokosbrood (candy) - look at it through the lense of the Dutch (children) school sandwiches: Hagelslag, Vlokken, Muisjes, Gestampte muisjes, Kokosbrood.
Well... about fish in a jar: here are a few to try also: - Braadharing - Cooked mossels in vinegar - Smoked mossels in oil - Kabeljauwlever (Cod liver)(canned)....
Yessssss... try braadharing!
You really should try mix karnemelk and fresh orangejuice! Just 50/50. It is refreshing on a warm day.
