The "ontbijtkoek" is usually eaten with a (thick) layer of butter. That makes the taste more balanced, and the cake less dry.

I've worked in Apeldoorn in an electronics store and one of the regular customers was a man belonging to the Peijnenburg family that owned the brand back in the day and they sold it for quite a bit of money. The guy had millions but lived very simple and he would ride his bicycle around Apeldoorn just to see if there was anything to do and have fun. Every day he made tons of pictures (he still had an analogue camera) and then brought it to our store to develop. Sometimes he would open up the envelop with the pictures in the store and would tell the best stories about what he photographed. He was a really nice older guy. I haven't seen him in like 10 years, I hope he's ok and still enjoying life.

Ontbijtkoek is indeed eaten with butter, and used as a snack when you feel like something small. Don't forget to drink First and Chocomel cold! Tastes way better that way. You should also put both in the fridge after opening :)

@SnakeNL24 9 месяцев назад

I mostly eat it (when we have it at home) with cheese or peanut butter.

@luk5464 11 месяцев назад

Note that the unrefrigerated milk (including Chocomel and Fristi) has been heated up to a very high temperature (sterilisation rather than pasteurisation) so they can be stored at room temp for a very long time (whilst unopened!), but that doesn’t mean you should drink it at room temp. It’s best drunk cold (or hot in the case of Chocomel) and you should definitely put it in the fridge after opening it. Once opened it also doesn’t stay good until the printed date. After all, bacteria and other things will have gotten in so your sterile milk product is no longer sterile. Go by smell, consistency and taste after opening

@_maghetweten Год назад

After zure matten: try apekoppen, katjes, haringdrop from Katja. Try chocomel dark. Eat ontbijtkoek with plenty of butter or try the kandijkoek. Try a bossche bol, negerzoen, gevulde koek, krakeling. And for borrel vibes: go and try mini loempia, vlammetjes, bitterbal, bami schijf! Plenty of snacks to try out

@renebosch5917 11 месяцев назад

Liquorice is an acquired taste. If you haven't tasted it from infancy it's hard to get to appreciate it in later life. Which explains why we Dutch like it and the rest of the world predominantly does not. Telling is the story of a British colleague I once had who was on assigment in Holland for a few years. He hated liquorice like every non-dutch person, but his kids - very young when in Holland - learned to love it. When he was back in the UK I occasionally sent some Dutch liquorice to him for his kids as you can't get it in the UK. Nowadays he seems to order it for them on the internet.

@calliopemuse6724 7 месяцев назад

They definitely sell a variety of licorice candy in the UK & the US. So some non-Dutch people must like it. 😂 The Italians sell a no-sugar-added hard licorice candy. Licorice is also a flavor element in root beer.

I’ve just gotten into your channel and am loving it! I’m a Dutchman living in Norway so your snacktests give me little doses of nostalgia! Hero’s blackcurrants are grown especially for them in Zeeland. The clay ground and sea air is supposedly very important. Yes, Hero Cassis sweet, but it has a sharpness other brands’ versions lack. The Fanta version especially just tastes sweet in an industrial sort of way…

Bags like the Duyvis nootjes have a notch at the top, about an inch from the side. There it's easy to rip a corner of the bag, creating a perfect opening. This notch is common for all these kinds of bags.

Lipton is British/Dutch, originally started in Scotland, then bought by Unilever. You're not eating the ontbijtkoek wrong, by the way. That's how we eat it. You could make it even better by putting some butter on it. Fristi is drinking yoghurt, hence the flavour. We have many different brands of drinking yoghurt. We really love that stuff.

@royvankan2723 Год назад

Fristi is indeed very sweet. Try Optimel Drinkyoghurt, same flavour and I am for sure you don't want another brand.

@Jaikweer01 11 месяцев назад

Ok. snacks as a dutchman. As tou found out we love our coffeeflavoured cookies. Now try bokkepootjes, krakelingen, bastogne koek, maria biscuits or get an actual koekjestrommel. Usualy a blue tin with a wide selection of cookies but when found at grannies place always filled with sowing threads and needles. For sweets have a go at tum tum, apenkoppen, biggetjes, autodrop colored ones ofcourse as you do not like liqourish. And as you are already looking into borrelnootjes also try tijgernootjes and the cheap but popular snack box with 5 different snacks. Usualy square or round and always a red label.

@andyhorvath6630 Год назад

My cousin from Hungary always loads up his car with literally probably a hundred liters of Chocomel when going home. He loves it so much …

@dutchdykefinger 11 месяцев назад

i think it deserves that praise, it's non-controverisal too, it's not like zoute drop or zure haring which are very out there chocomel is just nice and easy going ,and has configurable creamyness, if you prefer to have them not as creamy, you just don't shake up the thing before drinking it, and it will be more flat and pretty nice too, if you like a fat head of bulbbly cream, you jsut violently shake it, you can have the creamyness your way by how much you shake it, which gives it just that extra of a wider appeal you'd be hard pressed to find a foreigner that does not like it, especially americans, just like most of them are all over teh stroopwafel, but chocomel is evn more unobtrustive that's where i think it's greatness lies, they dialed in that shit perfect to be an easy drinker, and you'll find yourself drinking a liter of that shit in an hour without even meaning to, it happens all the time, every time ofcourse as a dutch native i'm a pretty heavy milk drinker, so a liter of that ain't shit, but it's getting pricy that way lol even though i don't drink it all that often, and opt for a milkshake instead when i really feel that itch because i so very much enjoy a good thick shake that actually hurts your neck muscles when trying to get it through a straw, i love them when they're on the verge of painful, so much value for money, so yeah i tend to gravitate toward the mcdonalds milkshake... give me half a liter of that shit and make it hurt please if/when i do have chocomel around, it is getting absolutely destroyed..... lol it's great stuff for it's at least an 8 for being so consistently well received, and it's not hard to imagine peopel taking a liking to it so much they would hoard it

Tony's is the best. And you definitely need to put some (real) butter on the ontbijtkoek. Fun vid 👍

@maikobayashi1910 Месяц назад

So, on the Pataje Joppie chips. The mustard flavor actually comes from the fact its made with Fritessaus which actually contains quite a bit of mustard compared to the more sour mayonaise.

@lindaraterink6451 Год назад

This kind of ontbijtkoek is better with butter, I have never heard of anyone heating it though. Some put it on a sandwich as a topping. It is more or less the Dutch version of gingerbread, but different. There are different kinds some have raisins or nuts, those seem to be less dry then the one you had and are more comfortable to eat without butter, but with is still better. Fristi is indeed a kids drink, adults hardly consume it. Mostly we buy it for the little ones at a restaurant when you don't want to drink or they do not like fizzy drinks. Because it is very sugary it is for most kids a treat, or at least it should be.

For the same reason that it's called Chocolonely, the shape of the pieces, when you break the chocolate bar, are uneven. So, when you do share it, no one gets the same amount of chocolate. Its to show how unfair the chocolate industry is towards the farmers To avoid the sharing issue, obviously you can eat a whole bar by yourself... (which is what I would do)

@dutchdykefinger 11 месяцев назад

that's how i learned to eat it as a kid,about 1.5 to 2 centimeter thick slices with butter spread over teh top well actually, margarine to be exact, it was the late 80s orso, and margarine was like at the height of its popularity, so i explicitly am used to eating them with margarine to be spread on bread. nevr even tried them with real butter, but i think i may prefer the margarine, if only for nostalgia reasons i think it was mostly blue band at the time, they even started out as a margarine company, later a lot of others joined into the margarine business and shifted the market share, as is to be expected with a country that produces so much dairy lol when it blew up and it wasn't as one-sided anymore you can just stack them on top of each other wit the unbuttered side down, and the butter from the top, keeps every next piece glued to the tower a bit even if the cuts are a bit crooked and diagonal-ish, you just reorient the layer if it goes too crook one way like a jenga tower when they're particularly bad cuts, and after you can just start eating from the top of the stack down. the making and eating the tower part, was essential to the fun of it as a kid to me, half of the joy lol i find eating an entire ontbijtkoek regardless of the butter gives you a bad case of the farts because of the way higher concentration of gingerbread spices on the outer dark "rind"/rim, ginger tends to have some metabolic effects lol

@JaapGinder 11 месяцев назад

The noodles is a not so common snack, it is more for lazy people to have lunch or dinner, or so. I never had it, I prefer the real noodles! Yep, ontbijtkoek with a thick butter layer on top. So tasty! For the borrelnootjes a hint: try those from Jumbo, the oriental taste. Blue packing. Thise are really spicey. And do not eat so much candy, so much sugar... 😜 The Venco honingdrop is the one I don't like, but that is that I don't like honey too, haha. Fristy is mostly drunk by kids. Sure it's sweet, haha. Better have the chocomel, that is for kids and adults! The koffiewafels is a good choice, great taste! My favorite snack? Milkchocolate bar with whole hazelnuts...

I'll reply this here so buncharted will know what this is all about: in the Netherlands colloquially roomboter, margarine (can be used for baking and frying) and halvarine (a lower fat margarine only suitable for 'buttering' bread) are all called 'boter'. Of those three only roomboter is actually butter, hence packages of roomboter being labeled 'echte boter', real butter.

Hi Michelle and Alex! Firstly, my compliments on how you pronounce Dutch words that either start with a "G" or have a "G" in it. It quite spot on. About the Fristi, it is indeed a yoghurt drink and it is best when you drink it cold. It won't be as sweet as when you drink it at room temperature. On the Lipton Sparkling Iced tea.......we also have a flat version. Then the ontbijtkoek (Peijenburg), it is indeed a breakfast cake and I personally put butter and have a glass of cold milk with it.

@buncharted Год назад

strangely, we have the flat version in the US too. the sparkling one is unique!

@jeffafa3096 Год назад

"Borrel" snacks are my favourite. Things like bitterballen, kaasblokjes (cheese cubes), different types of nuts (like cashews, almonds, peanuts, walnuts or a nut mix) and dried sausage. Also things like toast (the small crackers) with brie or a spread. You should try having a "borrelplank" with some wine or beer on a "terrasje" (outdoor seating area at a cafe or restaurant). That's the best!

@WhoStoleMyAlias Год назад

Drinks and candy don't usually qualify as 'snacks' around here. We tend to reserve the term for savoury bites though it also includes sweet food like candied peanuts (suikerpinda's) and chocolate covered raisins (chocolade rozijnen), and of course deep fried bites that you will find in the freezer section of the supermarket (bitterballen, kaassoufflés, vlammetjes, kipnuggets, etc). BTW I don't think I've ever before seen someone with an allergy towards peperkoek. The spice mix they use is a variation of that used in pepernoten en kruidnootjes, or for you Americans ginger bread cookies. Most notably this includes cardamom, anise and of course ginger.

"peperkoek" you actually make it better with a little butter. Because it's dry, kind of like peanutbutter, when you add some jelly to it to make it more "moist" or whatever you would call it.Lys used to be called Smith's and if ask me it tasted way better when it was Smith's

@mavadelo 4 месяца назад

Ontbijtkoek: Don't heat it up but DO put butter on it... a fair amount... roomboter, not margarine (well... you can do margarine but roomboter is 10x better) Fristi: the drink is called "drinkyoghurt" in the Netherlands with a reason :) And yes, it is mainly marketed to children but I enjoy it once in a while as well and I am 55.

De ontbijtkoek in Belgium is called 'peperkoek' and there are two diferent flavours with of without sugar on top. You can eat it dry, with butter or you can make it fancy with smoked salmon and herb cheese.

@lorrefl7072 11 месяцев назад

I'm from Belgium and until recently I had no idea the sparkling version of Lipton Ice Tea was unique to this part of Europe (Netherlands, Belgium, and pretty sure they have it in France too). The "Peijnenburg breakfast cake" is a brand of "Peperkoek" and used to be very popular in Belgium too when I was a kid (born in 1972) but I don't think they are still popular now. In Belgium it wasn't eaten much as a breakfast but as a snack after school. And you don't eat it dry but with a nice layer of real butter and sometimes also chocolat sprinkles on top of the butter. I personally hated Perperkoek because I don't like the taste of cloves (one of the spices in there) and it also has cinnamon which gives me an upset stomach. Drop isn't as much a thing in Belgium as in The Netherlands but you can find it here (especially in the Dutch store chains) and it is truelly repulsive. Fristi smells like yoghurt because it's a yoghourt drink. It is more of a kids drink. Never seen an adult drink it.

@AimeeTio 7 месяцев назад

😂😂 Your faces when you tried the 'ontbijtkoek'. Eating it like that is way too dry. I don't eat it much now, but as a child a ate it regularly. You have to put butter or margarine on it. Lots of it!! Then it's great!

@bingbong6066 Год назад

My favorite snacks are the dutch savory cheese cookies from the bakery. And then the whole ordeal you get on a birthday. The ones with amandelen, krakelingen, maanzaad etc.

Transavia used to provide decent meals on charter flights in the 1990s! Just before they were rebranded to a low cost carrier. I remember potato mash with leek and Parisian carrots and chicken filet. Also standard were little bags of salted smoked almonds.

Hey guys. I see the channel is doing great. Congrats. I love the expression on your face when you eat drop. Haha classic.😂 And yeah, butter the ontbijtkoek. You can even put cheese or sugar on it. Fun to watch your vids. 👍🏻

Cold chocolate milk you drink from Chocomel. But when you want it hot? you do not use Chocomel. You use Droste (yes from the Droste effect!) cocoa powder, fresh milk, sugar, and a knife tip of butter. boil the milk, when it boils, put a few spoons (4-5 tablespoons (not the American measure but just the spoons you use to eat soup) for one liter of boiling milk as I can remember), of cocoa powder into your pan of boiling milk. put sugar in it, taste for the right amount of sweetness, and then put the butter in it for the creamy taste. A lot of the older Dutch people will know this (Boomers, generation X). This was given to me when the winters were cold and after skating and playing in the snow, by my mother. Sitting in front of the fireplace, with a runny nose and hot steaming cocoa in my hands. first spooning of the vel, I do not know how to say vel in English. It was a layer on the top. Not great to drink or even eat. And if you think a bit of Droste cocoa in your mouth is wonderful. No, it is not, as it is pure cocoa powder, it is even disgusting when taking it straight from the package.

A few corrections, Cécémel is Belgian, and has been produced since 1949, they specially select their chocolate to make that drink. Lipton is not Nestea. Lipton is its own brand, Nestea is owned by Nestlé, who used to work together with Coca-Cola in the past.

@buncharted Год назад

i have no idea where the nestea thing came from in the video but rest assured i cut out an entire bit complaining about nestle 😂

You guys should refrigerate all the drinks, drink them icecold. Especially the Fristi and Chocomel. Icecold in the summer heat, realy good.

@henkhemming6674 10 месяцев назад

yes,eat the peijnenburg with butter...or put 3 slices in a beefstew,great taste

@davevanbeers6944 Год назад

The “peperkoek” eat it with “roomboter” I used eat it as a snack after school. 😊Not a big fan of drop myself. Not a fan of coffee taste so I usually buy the pennywafels if I have that craving. 😂 I would spit the drinks and snacks and that way the cassis can get to a tear. My guilty pleasure… the haribo Frogs. 😊

@Massuus 10 месяцев назад

9:38 you need to eat it with butter, I don’t really like butter personally but with ontbijtkoek it’s just perfect, also with young chess is great!

@jeroencote5212 Год назад

You should be eating ontbijtkoek (peijnenburg) with a bit of butter on top (it taste better) another cookie tip is 'langetjes' it has a great sweet flavour and it is perfect with a cup of tea

@kayhoorn Год назад

You need to try 'Look-O-Look zure matten' if you really like that Katja candy. But you should probably do a checkup at the dentist first haha

@rikjebarnwell415 11 месяцев назад

Hi Michelle and Alex!! I'm from Apeldoorn, but live in West Australia. My husband and I follow you on RU-vid. Today I saw you try to eat ' ontbijtkoek'! 🤣🤣 Very dry on it's own. I put butter or margarine on mine and we even put it on bread.. like we Dutch people do. Everything goes on bread! You can buy fresh ontbijtkoek' at good bakeries. Some have sultanas in them, or kandijkoek, which has lumps of sugar on it!! Delicious!!!! Enjoy !

@andrekloer 11 месяцев назад

10:25 The 'Peijnenburg ontbijtkoek' should be eaten with butter, then they are pritty good

@StartPlayFinish 11 месяцев назад

Ontbijtkoek can be dry, especially if its older. Butter is good for taste and also makes it less dry. Goes well with a slice of cheese on it as well.

@highs_and_lows4665 11 месяцев назад

You get sparkling ice tea in Germany and Switzerland too. Also I recently had it in Spain..my kids are really into that stuff

I've heard people freezing the zurematte and loving it. Havent tried it myself though.

@annemieverhoeven2566 11 месяцев назад

Yes on the ontbijtkoek should be some butter...YUMMMMMY

@nyoko2926 Год назад

Michelle, your hair looks lovely. My favourite snack is boterbabbelaars from Zeeland (similar to hopjes but without coffee). My grandma used to give them to me. My second favourite would be fire-balls, sold exclusively on fairs and markets or candy shops: red, and hot.

@buncharted Год назад

the babbelaars were so good!

@miran4471 11 месяцев назад

Every day I eat the Peijnenburg ontbijtkoek (the volkoren ) with roomboter ,so good☺️🌷

@hcjkruse Год назад

It is somewhat forbidden to grow black currants in the USA because there is. fungus that needs both currant and timber to prosper. The USA prioritised timber over currants. In Europe it is the other way around.

@johnalexander8682 Год назад

You indeed should put some roomboter (pure butter) on the Peijnenburg breakfastcake (ontbijtkoek)...

@luukf Год назад

You should try the sweet/soft drop with a layer of sugar on the outside. For example "Krakelingen". Also, I think you'll like the "zeeuwse roomboter babbelaars" too.

@buncharted 11 месяцев назад

we tried the babbelaars in our middelburg vlog - they were tasty!

@idiewiej 11 месяцев назад

I love Lays Pickles flavor, Dutch cheese, fuet with truffle, Mars icecream bars, Côte D'or chocolate and the diamond shaped marshmallows -spekjes- covered with white chocolate (they are TOO DIE FOR).

@buncharted 11 месяцев назад

i have to find the white chocolate spekjes!!!

@ye-roon 11 месяцев назад

there's a saying in dutch. it roughle translates to: you can never have just 1 glass of chocomel. also, fristi is more a soda then a milk. its mostly enjoyed by kids in restaurants. Also you kinda need to drink it cold as its bad at room temp.

@buncharted 11 месяцев назад

rest assured, it was cold!

@lennardramone5294 4 месяца назад

Borrelnootjes are the greatest thing ever. That should get a quadruple S rating!

@hadessah368 Год назад

Katjang Pedis are peanuts with a spicy coating. Indonesian or Indonesian-inspired. The ones from Lidl have a great flavour, but you'll get some bad peanuts in almost every bag.

@henk4639 Год назад

Just buy the ones at Albert Heijn (3 for €5,-). They are superior in flavor and I don't think I've ever had a bad peanut in them.

@Populiervogel Год назад

One of my favorites, the house brand of the Deka is also great!

@Ruudos 4 месяца назад

Borrelnoten themselves are from Indonesian origin as well. Keuringsdienst van Waarde made an episode about it.

Chocomel is my favourite chocolate milk brand! In Belgium, they call it Cécémel, same taste but French name instead lol.

@skiskibull Год назад

Nice too see your dutch journey. I live in Zwijndrecht right next to Dord, and did some tourguide work in Dordrecht and lived there for 14 years. Maybe you take your bikes out to de Molentocht nearby to see all the old mills very nice bike ride (advice for your vid 2 weeks ago). Maybe after this video you would go to the Groenmarkt at the restaurant Knollen en Citroenen for some local Dutch cuisine as a video idea?

@nicoanker1343 Год назад

Fristi is very good and also Saucijzenbroodje.

@AimeeTio 7 месяцев назад

Yeah ontbijtkoek isn’t very good, but it’s pretty okay with butter. You should try the kandij ontbijtkoek and then put butter on it. That’s actually really good!

@Bduh2 5 месяцев назад

Go figure, I made a comment about Chocomel on one of your other videos and here you are drinking my favorite drink in the world.

@evafemme8674 8 месяцев назад

Hot Chocomel with whipped creme... yum!

@NoraKitties Год назад

The Peijnenburg cake is often eaten just like that. 😅 Some eat it with butter on it. But we eat it plain haha.

@paulthiel5145 Год назад

Definitely only coated with butter in my stomach 😂

@hildelouisevrijs774 Год назад

Hallo A&M, actually we do not call all the sweet things “snacks”. And ontbijtkoek is far better with real butter! Haagse hopjes zijn inderdaad lekker! ❤️Hil

@bertschalk1798 Год назад

My latest snack discovery is a spread from the AH or Jumbo etc. made by Johma, called oude kaas / pesto ! You can wake me up in the middle of the night for that stuff. Tastes great on bread (stokbrood) or little crackers (toast). Swallow down with some beer or wine 😜

@buncharted 11 месяцев назад

oooooh yum!!

@robertjag167 Год назад

I used to binge all of these at one point in my life. ESPECIALLY honingdrop 😂😂 Also, Unox has a cup variant of pasta carbonara that I ate like... everyday lol

Fristi is mostly for kids ... and former colleague Ruud from Hoorn. We would always complain about the smell when he opened a can in the bus, but then ... he was our driver and we had to endure.
