She went to an Albert Heijn in the center of Amsterdam. You have to know that every shop of Albert Heijn can choose from an enormous list of products from the HQ. They tailor it to what they think they can sell best. In the center of Amsterdam, the produce they sell is more tailored towards high income and tourists. I live almost next to an Albert Heijn supermarket in a provincial town and a third of the products shown here are not available in my shop. Something to be aware of. Furthermore Albert Heijn is indeed generally the best quality you can buy in supermarkets (speciality shops offer even better) but AH is also the most expensive supermarket brand. So, be aware of that.

Albert Heijn and many other supermarkets adapt their selection to the place in town where they are situated. In City Center it is far more student and single person orientated than in suburbs. In rich subs they have more expensive bread and in poorer neighborhoods more of the cheaper ones. And of course Dutch people do not buy things in tourist style, because they charge more for the wrapping. This is very clearly an Amsterdam Center City AH.

Your pronunciation of Gouda was spot on!

The cheese is so plenty, because we have so many diverse types. First distinction is how old it is, which means how long it was left to ripe, longer riping means more of a cheese taste, but also a bit more expensive (because of the storage): Jonge (young) cheese: 4 weeks Jong belegen (young matured): 8 to 10 weeks Belegen (matured): 16 tot 18 weeks Extra belegen (extra matured): 7 tot 8 months Oude kaas (old): 10 tot 12 months Overjarige kaas (very old): 18 months Then we have fat percentage. If you examine the ingredients of a cheese, 40 percent is always water, and the remaining 60 percent of the cheese has a fat percentage, which is the number you often find on the cheese, for example: '20+ cheese' has at least 20 percent of the 60 percent being fat. Its a matter of taste (and diet) which fat content you prefer. It ranges from 20+, 30+, 40+, 45+,48+, 50+ and 60+. The 40 range is most popular, but some like it more lean, and some more fat. Then we have the origin of the cheese. This is partly marketing, but its true, that cheeses from the famous Gouda for example taste different from other famous cheese making cities like for example Edam. This is because the pastures have different soil, and the cows are different, that make the milk, and the production process is all slightly different, which makes the taste different. There is a quality factor: we have cheap cheeses that are made industrial, and we have cheeses from decent factories, or even individual farmers making their own artisan cheeses. More expensive often means more tasty. Cheap supermarkets have meh to 'its ok' cheeses, expensive supermarkets (like albert heyn) have pretty decent cheese. The best cheese is found on open air markets, where cheese stands sell the best cheeses (at a fairly high price, but its SOOOO good). Cheese from cheese wheels are the best. Besides markets there are also some special cheese shops, that only sell cheese. These cheeses are more expensive, but they quality is out of this world, if you like cheese, you should find a market or specialty shop, and steer away from supermarkets. Then there are the specialty cheeses: komijnenkaas (with cumin), sambal cheese, smoked cheese, smeerkaas (fluid cheese you can spread like butter), and such.

Mostly things like candy, cookies, chips (or crisps as they call them in the UK), but also ontbijtkoek, beschuit, knäckebröd, jam (or jelly as the American call it), peanutbutter, appelstroop, and of course hagelslag. The rest of the shop was kitchenware, toiletries, office supplies and such. But it was nice to have a little bit of the Netherlands nearby. We also had a Dutch Market on Queen's Day on Trafalgar Square where you could buy Heineken beer, Unox worstebroodjes, tulip bulbs, cheese, and wooden shoes. In my last years there a Dutch Marrocan guy had a snack van where you could buy kroketten, kibbeling, kaas soufflees, kip frikandellen (he was Muslim so he didn't sell pork so no normal frikandellen) with real Dutch mayonaise. I used to go there once every 2 weeks to get some kibbeling and a kroket 😄

Sounds disgusting to me, and I am Dutch!

I really loved how she didn't just stick with the usual stuff. But a couple of things 1. Pastries shouldn't be bought your first time at the supermarkets. It's not really bad but it's so much better in the pastry shop. And Bossche Bollen try them at Jan de Groot in Den Bosch if you can cause those are the best! Nothing can beat them. Also Vlaai isn't the same when you buy it in a supermarket as you would in a Limburgse Vlaai store. The best ones obviously can be found in Limburg. 2. Bread is okay in the supermarket (and much better than American bread, a lot of bread that's there is also freshly made by the baker in the store) in the AH i really like the Liefde & Passie bread, but nothing can beat going to a bakery in the morning. Also don't just try the white bread. Yes it's fluffier and most kids love it more. But when you start eating you can eat the whole bread because it has nothing in it but air. There's mostly atleast one bakery in every town. When I was living in Amsterdam i lived above a bakery so I was really lucky, i woke up with the smell of fresh made bread every morning, but if you're not it's worth the walk or bicycle ride. 3. Stroopwafels should be bought at the market / store, freshly made and hot although the supermarkets can be okay, especially when you put them in a microwave for 2 seconds or above a hot beverage. 4. Premade Stamppots are easy but it's either salty or very tasteless, and to me it even looks more like vommit. You can better go to a restaurant where they serve stamppot (In Amsterdam there are a couple) freshly made. It's so much better. I'm not a huge fan of it but I know quite some foreigners who actually do love it. The best in my opinion is Andijviestamppot (endive) it's a little bit more light and unlike most stamppots this one is also eaten pretty often in spring (most stamppots are typically eaten in winter). And if you want to buy rookworst (which is very common to use with your boerenkool (cale) stamppot) buy it from the Hema. Premade Microwave Meals aren't a good choice to begin with if you don't want it to taste too salty or tasteless. If you want it easy you can better choose the premade salads, some are pretty decent these days. Precut vegetable mixes or just one vegetable. You can get an empty pizzabottom (where you can put your own topics on). Soups packages that have all the vegetables cut already, the only thing you need to do is boil them with water for 10 minuts or something and blend them. Or there are packages for almost whole meals (except the fresh items) that take you around 15 - 30 minutes to prepare. It's more fresh than microwaved, it's healthier and it taste better. 5. Because she was a veggie i wondered if she knew that there are veggie bitterballen and croquettes as well. When you get Mora's veggie bitterballen / croquettes people hardly know the difference is my experience. Also you can get bitterballen with cheese in it as well. Also I'm wondering if she tried kaassouffle's. It's puff pastry with cheese in the middle that you fry as well. Be careful if you have those, the cheese on the inside is very hot. 6. Premade Dutch pancakes and poffertjes.. absolutely don't do it. Either make them yourself with a poffertjespan or go to a restaurant. And when you do decide to buy them don't put them in the microwave they get really tasteless. It's a little better when you bake those premade poffertjes or pancakes in a pan but still nothing beat the taste when you try them yourself or get them in a restaurant. 7. Cheese should be bought in a special cheese store or a farm, if you buy it in the supermarket at least look for the biological made ones and het beter leven sign (better life sign), better for nature, the animals and they've got much more taste than the other ones. Maybe it's a little bit expensive but I always say that you can better choose to get good quality a little bit less than bad quality all the time. And I have to say even though I love Dutch cheese (especially Edammer), i love special cheeses from other countries even more like the french or italian. 8. Sprinkles are the best when it's (extra) dark chocolate I think. The bitterness of the chocolate with the creaminess of butter and fresh baked bread is like heaven to me (And no, unlike lots of Dutchies apperantly, I don't eat it for breakfast or lunch. It's more of a something i eat in between when I'm still a bit hungry. I like my meals to be healthy and this of course isn't but it is delicious). 9. Tony Chocoloney's best option is dark chocolate with almonds & seasalt but yes the most popular one is milk chocolate with caramel and seasalt which is really good as well if you like milk chocolate more. But I thought I remembered that you liked dark chocolate more. The best chocolate to me is Lindt though but I really love the fairtrade concept of Tony. And I really love hands of my chocolate as well. It has great taste, it melts (even though it's vegan), it's also fairtrade and you get little rounds of chocolate, easy to break and everyone piece of chocolate either says mine or yours with a cross through it (it's a little joke that you don't want to share the chocolate). 10. Krentenbollen are pretty sweet. I don't consider them as breakfast or lunch because it doesn't do much for you it's more as a snack or something that is easy to take with you on the road. Loved it with butter and cheese, but then again i loved everything with cheese just like most Dutchies, too bad my stomach doesn't like cheese that much anymore so I don't eat it as much. Also try mueslibollen, same concept but with muesli and raisins. They're a bit more filling. 11. Appelstroop and cheese, yes some really love it but I don't think it's standard. I really love appelstroop on toast with a little bit of butter. 12. Don't forget that Indonesian and Surinam food must be tasted as well. Because they were colonies of the Netherlands it's a little bit Dutch in my eyes (but I'm not taking any credit for it, because the taste is all them and it's amazing). The best way to do that again is to go to an authentic Indonesian / Surinam restaurant or to buy your things (especially herbs) in a toko. It's a little store with lots of spices etc for more foreign dishes. Otherwise you'll get the Dutch version of those meals and that's like Tex Mex in American, most Mexicans don't consider it Mexican food either. It's good but it's very different than the authentic dishes. Oh and because there are lot of people from Turkey and Marocco here try that as well. Go to a Turkish bakery where you can find baklava (which is a really sweet paistry but if it's made correctly it tastes amazing) and real turkish (pita) bread. And Marrocan food like couscous or something is so tasteful. Besides those authentic foods try a kapsalon with kebab if you're at a (Turkish) snackbar (it's fries with kebab meat, sauce (mostly garlic and chili) and salad on top of it) or if you think that's too much Turkish bread with kebab and salad. 13. If you buy mayonaise (the best mayonaise in my eyes is freshly made, it's pretty easy), try Hellman's (a little bit more sour) or Oliehoorn. And of course you have to try mustard with some cheese or bitterballen. The best mustard to use is Zaanse mosterd. 14. Try eierkoeken as well, it's very fluffy bit cake like. 15. Try to buy Filet Americain, the name may make you suspect it's made in America but it's invented here in either Belgium or the Netherlands. It's made of raw steak tartar with a lot of herbs (but it's very safe to eat as long as the expiration date isn't passed), most eat it on a baguette with a boiled egg on top of it. I'm a veggie so I don't eat it the real thing anymore, but gladly for me the vegetarische slager (vegetarian butcher) has made a very good veggie so now I can eat it again.

Just so you know allot of people would point tourist to a Albert Heijn but its the most expensive supermarket out of the main supermarket chains there are. You could best go to a Vomar or Jumbo, you’d save some bucks :) (ps all the ‘fresh’ bread they have like the ones you can grab and but in a bag are all taken out of a freezer and baked in a big oven, i’ve had many times when i would buy bread and it would already be a day old).

In (American) English, nearly all Dutch cheeses are called Gouda cheese, but in the Netherlands we only really call it Goudse kaas (Gouda cheese) if it actually is from the city of Gouda. All the cheeses have distinct flavors and are named differently.

@lienbijs1205

There is no cheese made in Gouda, it was a location of the cheese trading centre in the past and nowadays just a show for tourists. Goudse kaas refers to the type of cheese and can be made everywhere. So in that matter I also don't understand why you think that Dutch people only refer to Goudse kaas when it comes from Gouda. For instance, there is a woman in America with a cheese factory that makes delicious Gouda cheese. " Marieke' s Gouda".

Gouda is not a protected brandname. The way it’s produced is protected. So everyone around the world can make Gouda cheese. That’s why when it’s really Dutch it’s noted explicitly on the front of the package.

You'll save a lot of money by buying food and drinks at the supermarket and eat it in a park: restaurants provide everything you need, but are more expensive and the quality of the markets is really good. Much less preservatives than in he US I've been told. Everything is fresh every day

About Belgian chocolate (Côte d’Or, Callebaut, Jacques, …) and pralines (Côte d’Or, Leonidas, Daskalides, Galler, Godiva, Neuhaus, etc etc etc): Most specialty chocolate boutiques that make their own pralines in Belgium use various types of Callebaut base chocolate for the ‘shell’ that houses the filling. They’ll melt it, temper it, possibly add a little something here and there… and they’ll have their own, freshly made fillings to put inside. They won’t grind and conch their own cocoa beans. One exception is Dominique Persoone’s The Chocolate Line’s atelier and shop. But then, he’s one of the world’s most famous chocolatiers. Rule of thumb: if it’s available in a supermarket, it’s highly likely it’s industrial rather than artisan chocolate. If it’s labeled as ‘Belgian’ it will contain a very high percentage of cocoa butter or even be made with 100% cocoa butter as opposed to other vegetable fats like palm oil. That’ll greatly improve flavour and mouth feel. The rest depends on cocoa content, level of conching (finer is better) and flavourings & other ingredients (vanilla, milk solids, nuts, etc) and will be more of a personal preference.

I love chocolate egg filled with advocaat, which is a liquor made with eggs, its often given to the women who go to a new born party. Old people love advocaat (it dark yellow, and you normally don't drink it, but you spoon it out of the glass, it often served with whipped cream on top). Best filling for easter eggs, but when you buy some don't get tricked into buying white chocolate eggs which have almost the same colour aluminium foil wrapped around them, a dark yellow colour.

Rookworst is the smoked sausage we eat with stampot. Qroquetten(or kroketten) and bitterballen are a roux of beefbroth and thin beef meat(standard flavour, there are variaties) cooled to stiffen and rolled and then breaded thicly so it doesn't leak for deepfry. (There is probably some youtuber on here that will show you how to make them. ) Everything she showed in that section we eat with fries, like americans eat burgers with fries. Some things are party snacks like the bitterballen. The cheese yeah well we love our cheese and cheese flavoured stuff, but this AH was in Amsterdam where a lot of tourist shop, so the cheese is kind of overboard compaired to other AHs. There are also you tubers that make vla I am sure it is very easy to do if you want to try it. The prepackaged ones we eat fridge cold, but home made you can also eat warm.

And another comment from me, just have to share my thoughts the moment I think them. If you want a really good "vlaai" you should go to the province Limburg, they have the best. My favorite is the "abricozenvlaai", an apricot tart. Now on to your video, Im not even at the halve mark.

The cheese shops in Amsterdam are touristic shops just selling factory cheeses like artificial aged Old Amsterdam with a nasty bitter after taste. The tourists don"t know any better and really believe it is cheese with a long history.

'How much cheese you need'? All the cheese! I think at home we typically have 5-10 varieties of cheese all the time, and more if there's a party: your standard young cheese to melt in oven dishes. Old cheese, blue cheese, brie (french), a red cheese, some varieties of cheese spread (smeerkaas, e.g. with sambal), then there is herbed cheese (like paturain)

I love how you have all those Dutch items and the way you think out loud and learn the language while you watch it. Hopefully I get to go on food tours again this year because I miss walking around and showing my guests the city and teach them about the Dutch things.

You pronounced that ‘Gouda’ right !!

The filled chocolates Belgium is so famous for, are called pralines. In the Netherlands they are also called bonbons. Praliné is a filling consisting of nuts, cooked sugar, vanilla and cocoa powder/cocoa butter.

And that was just one brand of supermarket. We've got quite a bunch more, mostly overlapping product but yet, unique stuff to be found there. And besides those, we've got also stores that are specialized in certain products like cheese obviously. But also pastries, meat, herbs, beers. You name it. We've got it.

Just a couple of thing when you decide to visit The Netherlands: - I've never heard of anyone putting cheese on krentenbollen or appelstroop on cheese before. It's not very common for people to do that. - Get your stroopwafels from the market from a stroopwafel stand and not at the supermarket. The ones from the supermarket aren't bad at all, but the ones from the market are really freshly made and far superior. - Hopjesvla is really good. Other flavours you might want to try are citroen (lemon), sinaasappel (orange) and when it's the right season rumrozijnenvla (rum & raisins) and stoofperenvla (stewed pears). - If you like drop you should try droppoeder (licorice powder). - Go to a snackbar and try all the common snacks: frikandel, kroket (rundvlees, kalfskroket, satékroket), kaassouflé, bamischijf, mexicano (also called carrero), vlammetjes, saté and knakworst. - The best vlaaien are from the province of Limburg. If you're not in that province and want to get one from the supermarket I can recommend the zwitserse roomvlaai (swiss creamvlaai) from Plus (supermarket).

@@mariadebake5483 wonderful explanation of the weird rules of our lovely language. One thing I would like to add - in older Dutch spelling we would simply add the "e". So "rood" would become "roode", "groot" would become "groote". However, the way we pronounce it is more of a short sound, which made "rode" or "grote" a better fit. So now we write only 1 "o" instead of 2. BTW - I personally believe the "e" is added in speech for ease of elocution and it must have grown naturally, maybe subconciously. Typically it just feels easier to pronounce with the vowel there, without it the language becomes very staccato-ish. Just my personal hypothesis.

My man has half the Albert Heijn in his drawer haha. We also have lots of Albert Heijns in Belgium, I shop there very often

What she calls Bossche Bollen there, is actually not a Bossche Bol, the only ones that can be called that way are from a bakery called De Groot in Den Bosch and those were not from there. ;)

Most things you should of course buy fresh from a local cheese shop, bakery or outside market stall. But Albert Heijn is great for chocolate and pastry on bread etc. But buy stroopwafels, cheese, meals, frying snacks and other bread fresh. It will be 10x better.

Charlie if you wanna try Old Amsterdam (cheese) 2 pieces of advice, 1. it's very salt making the cheese rather brittle, keep that in mind. 2. it's already a rather expensive cheese for Dutch standards, don't want to know what import did to the price.

I really like how observative you are on this video, recognizing the Friesian flag, Delfs porcelain, your pronunciations etc. Did you know that before harvesting the 'boerenkool' it needs to freeze over to get its flavour? It will produce suger when it freezes. That's also why 'boerenkool' is a traditional winter dish, usually served with a sausage we call 'rookworst'. . We like licorice, don't think many foreigners do 😄 Werthers originals is German, but yeah, really good too.
