Tip for all "USAers": Prepared food in Europe generally is MUCH lesse in sugar and salt compared to the USA. You taste the actual ingredients over the seasoning. In a positive manor, "get used to it". Another thing to realise is that the extreme seasoning in Indian and many other countries fonds comes from the fact that "back then" food could not be stored for long without going bad. The, what we now call "seasoning", herbs both lengthened the shelf life period AND camouflaged bad taste and smell from the pre-rotting fase without making us ill. P.s. Your Dutch is already fine, you seem to have a gift for pronouncing these topical Dutch sounds correctly. More practice will do the job.

Eric puts the salades on TUC crackers, and I use Melba toast! Heat the Poffertjes and put butter and powdered sugar on them - super lekker💕

Melba toast are the best.

Our bread wil get old in a few days. I alway put the bread in the freezer pert. When I want a slice. I just take one out of the freezer en let it warm up. You habe fresh bread every day.

Your pronunciation is at an excellent level for someone so new. Don’t worry about it will improve in the coming weeks. Someone with this kind of motivation will get anything done. I love your content.

Great video Dianna! Show Elyse next time. Love and miss you all..Mom😊💕

For your daughter.. Eating bread is good for children. Your child gets good substances in this way. Think carbohydrates, proteins, fiber, iodine, B vitamins and iron. Whole wheat bread and brown bread are the healthiest choices. It contains a lot of fiber. Fiber is good for the intestines and digestion. Wholemeal bread contains the most fiber.Whole wheat bread (volkorenbrood) and brown bread (bruin brood)are the healthiest choices. You can alternate this with whole grain crispbread, oatmeal or muesli. Healthy toppings are, for example, 100% peanut butter, 30+ cheese, vegetables and fruit. Also think of semi-skimmed milk and fruit to go with it.Whole wheat bread (volkorenbrood)and brown bread (bruin brood)are the healthiest choices.

Welcome in the Netherlands.

poffertjes are only best when they are freshly made from the stal in my opinion! 🙂

I recently discovered that Turkish stores/supermarkets are near heaven for the adventurous cook! If you want to surprise Michael, visit the meat department. You will not be disappointed. Neither will Michael!

Im here because of Tammy and Eric. And I like you already ❤

Your husband Michael if I heard right. Must try kibbeling, it is made of cod fish fried with a sauce. It is dutch and very nice you eat this with sauce ravigote. Delicious

Poffertje you must eat with stroop or poedersuiker. Salade kip kerrie you must eat with bread. 😉Bakkersbrood is coming from a bakery. The other bread is coming from a fabricbakery. Pindastukjes are smashed peanuts. Salad's you can eat it on bread, toast or crackers. On rosbeef you must spray a little salt and pepper.

heat the poffertjes and have them with some butter and powdered sugar. And the spreads are lovely on Tuc toasts. Eet smakelijk! :)

I admire how you try to pronounce the Dutch words as best you can. Hope you don't mind me saying that your camera shows the images the other way around. You might want to change that. For a really difficult word for nurse, try the Swedish word for nurse!!

When eating the rosbief the seasoning is provided by bread and butter underneath and salt and pepper on top.

So I'm not a fan of seafood myself, but I do think at one point you should try Kibberling or Lekkerbekje, these are battered whitefish and don't taste that fishy. But you could start with Vissticks they can be bought in the supermarket in the frozen department. Those even your little one might like, or at least not hate I think. Also brown bread with the cheese mouses or just any young cheese should be fine for breakfast for her and you can always go for pindakaas on bread ofc, the one from Calvé is de lekkerste!

A tip put the chocomel in a mug and heat it in the microwave. Then put the cream 'slagroom' on top!! Then you have the best hot coco on earth!

Easy: start with stroopwafels, then broodje haring, gerookte paling, kibbeling, zure haring, don't forget broodje hema worstje and that's basically it. Later you can try stamppot (zuurkool, hutspot or stamppot rauwe andijvie I like that with chorizo)and snert, brabants worstebroodje, bossche boll, werthers echte, haagse hopjes, autodrop, vla (chocolade, vanille, etc), frikandel speciaal met friet, tompoes, vlaai, hagelslag, bitterballen, later in the year oliebollen or appelbeignets, calve pindakaas, vietnamese loempia, kapsalon, start with this and you're good to go.

The typical tourist stuff to American liking....

hope you like it in the netherlands and the all best for the future

I understand that you were a nurse in America, and want to practice this profession here as well. I saw another vlog "Expart Ellen". She was also a nurse in Califonia. Just in between. What she experienced there and the working hours. You will not encounter that here and in the rest of Europe. But applying for a job still presents some problems. In one of her videos she tells how she tried to take a course at university. But at first it was rejected because of not sufficient for schooling. But then did something a lot more people should do. Disagree with that and gave good motivation. Both in writing and with the invitation. As a result, the admissions committee was convinced to admit her to the university. Motivation helps more to succeed.

You are doing soooo great🙏🏽 You will learn it😁

There are lots of things you can do with Rosbief. You can put some black pepper on it, for example. Something to try: Get some wraps, some pindakaas (peanut butter), a bottle of sweet chili sauce and some lettuce. Slice the lettuce into strips. Warm up the wrap, put some peanut butter on it, then the rosbief, some lettuce and drizzle some sweet chili over that. Roll it up and enjoy. :)

You don’t have to buy water in bottle. You can drink it from the tap.

I eat those salads on bread but they are served a lot on toast at parties. Roast beef is not spiced. You put what you like on it. Personally for me a little salt and a lot of black pepper. There's often the same meat you can buy plain or marinated but we are critical about additives in the EU. I almost always spice my food myself since I like spicy. For kids of course the chocolate sprinkles (hagelslag) and of course the desert called 'vla'. For your husband who likes seafood I suggest a 'lekkerbekje'. He can have that as a snack so you don't have to cook it. Have fun.

The typical Dutch staple is: boiled potatoes, boiled vegetables and a piece of meat. That should cover the bases when it comes to a somewhat balanced meal and it's not spicy. Which children often don't really like. For lunch, we usually eat slices of bread with butter and cheese or slices of meat. The roast beef on bread is usually seasoned with some salt and/or pepper to taste when you put it on your bread. Also: 'Verpleegkundige' is the official (gender neutral) term for 'nurse'. The traditional names for nurse are 'zuster' (sister) for females and 'broeder' (brother) for males.

with rosbief you need to add your own seasoning . also, ham is rather tasteless in my opnion here in the netherlands . You might try some 'worst' . The salade's are good, also try kip-siam from the same brand. For the sweet stuff .... all kind of sprincles 'hagelslag' , 'vlokken'. you can always ask Eric and Tammy what they like

You are going fast on the Dutch words 👌🏻 We are just back from a holiday trip in the north east of the U.S. Did the same taste tests with the American food. I’m in love with my coffeebeans machine! Welkome to the Netherlands 🤗

Your pronunciation is amazing actually. Even from your earliest videos you get the tone pretty accurate. With every bread that has "boeren" in front, is usually the nicest one. The salads from the Hema are a lot cheaper and better. When you put eggs in the fridge, you can add 2-3 weeks to the expiry date. Expiry dates are different in the Netherlands though as you must have found out by now. They are the last date the shop is allowed to sell it. The rest you have to figure out yourself.

Just subscribed to your channel. Nice videos. When you said you are a nurse i got a deja vu, because i’m also following KZread channel Expat Ellen. She is also an American who recently moved to the Netherlands and she also is a nurse. She lives in Amstelveen (south of Amsterdam). So nice that you have the same positive experience. I love following foreigners who move to the Netherlands. I look forward to your future videos. 💋❤️

Hi! Another word for nurse is ' zuster' ( sister) much easier than verpleegster. The sliced roast beef is also available in a peppered version. It looks like you get your bread from Albert Heijn. They also have a slightly more expensive range, which are also very tasty ( under the name ' liefde en passie ') I got your channel through Tammy& Eric's and also enjoyed their food adventures, like I am with you now. Good luck with your nursing, but it looks like it's going to turn out just fine.

owwww. You are poking the bull now my man. 😱 Zuster is an adressing title, like when you need something from him/her you call them broeder or zuster. Zuster as a job description..... Be sure to get yourself in a hell of an argument with a verpleegkundige!! I nearly had my face punched by saying verpleegster. Totally different (so I was told in a not very nice way 🤣🤣)

If a child eat two slices of brown bread she had a good meal.

Roast beef is the most expensive type of meats for bread, I like it as it is, but you can sprinkle pepper and a little salt on it, not too much because then it is better to buy cheaper meats that are already seasoned.

Pancakes go well with lots of things (bacon, cheese, apple, sugar, syrup, other stuff) so why wouldn't poffertjes ? (kind of miniature pancakes, after all ) :)

I usually use ryebread, toast or crackers for the spreads. White bread is pretty much flavorless and too soft. You can also try the "Wasa" brand crackers/knackebrod, these are great and higher in fiber.. the only reason for me to buy white bread would be to make grilled cheese sandwiches. Walk into a bakery and ask for some recommendations, you will taste the difference between most supermarket breads and the ones from the bakery. :) have fun exploring ! :)

Just a tip Dianna, if possible, watch dutch TV every day for half an hour, it will help with the language and you also see the advertisements in between of tasty things that are on offer in various supermarkets. Is your cat okay? Tot de volgende vlog!

all fine products. Decent nutritional value too. Seems like you had done some great food shopping. Bread here is amazing I agree too, thus I eat a loaf a day. Pick different meat, spreads, and repeat. you will never get bored. poffertjes/pannekoeken you can make yourself fresh better. Tastes ofcourse better always too when cooked home. Spreading spreads on bread is usually done with a butter knife. not a sharp knife. spread all around to your liking, fold it or whatever and enjoy Salads go any way you want them, toasts, bread, by itself, who cares its your enjoyment. usually its on bread or such tho. Crackers would go well with them too. We usually put eggs in the fridge, issue is once its cooled it can not be outside uncooled without consuming directly. Thats why they are sold outside of cooling, has to do with the eggs not being treated with chlorine here, america they do, destroying a layer of protection causing infection risk. here nothing is done to eggs. So you can cool them or not. but always keep them dark.

Filet American you can eat also on a cracker or a sanwich

Don't worry, you don't have to put eggs in the fridge but lots of Dutch do it anyway.

Eggs in the refrigerator is is fine. But as soon as you put them in the fridge leave them there until you use them. When an egg becomes moist (condensation) it can be a health risk.

If you are looping for a new Coffee machine, I love the Dolce Gusto machines. They don't take up a lot of space and make all sorts of Coffee, latte, flat White, chocolade, etc..

OMG, a other eating video ? We seen your friends eating for weeks and weeks now on YT ! 🤣 "This is simular to the American"...... except for all the dyes and chemicals in the American food !! You'rre gonna miss those for sure !😂

I would advice buying bread at the bakery. Supermarket bread is not great quality wise…bakery bread taste way better. And you can use those spreads on whatever bread you like…but probably taste best when you put it on a baguette…most supermarkets have small and big ones..those are generally speaking pretty ok, but offcourse bakery baguette will be much better. You also have toasts, which are small crackers. You have them in various sizes and brands, all for sale at the supermarket…those are great for spreads as well. Oh…and with the baguette…you can also ask in the supermarket if they want to cut it in little parts…ideally when you want to use it for those spreads..

You kind of have to flavour the rosbief yourself with salt and pepper. You csn add as much or as little as you like this way :) and it's fine to keep eggs in the fridge. It's not bad to do so, it's just not needed. If verpleegkundige is difficult you can shorten it to verpleger or verpleegster. Might be easier at first. Good luck finding your way in Rotterdam. And don't forget to enjoy yourself.

Kip kerrie salade = chicken curry salad: The origin of this lie in the former Dutch East indies, but, as far as I know, it was the Surinam community that introduced it as a bread topping. All these salads are meant to be eaten on bread (Dutch bread is relatively neutral in taste compared to bread elsewhere on the continent. Hence, the wide array of sandwich toppings they have in the country). Tom kha gai is a Thai coconut chicken soup, so I do not know how that translated to a Dutch salad, but I am sure it is tasty. The cucumber salad speaks for itself. you can get a yoghurt-based one that is less fatty. As to something that the girl might like, considering she likes yoghurt, you could try Heinz sandwich spread, a tangy vegetable-based sandwich topping. Or if she is into sweet, try kokosbrood (a sweet coconut-based topping, with plenty of fibre, but do get the one without artificial colouring). Rosbief is normally enjoyed on buttered bread with (white) pepper (in other words, add your own seasoning to your taste). Do note that in the Netherlands, toppings that you cannot spread, are usually put on buttered sandwiches. As to the pronunciation of "nurse" in Dutch, provided you know the G-sound is like clearing your throat, or retching, it sounds like VER-PLAY-(G)-CUND-IG-EH (Don't dwell on the EH).

Pronunciation tip: build it up this way: Start with PLEEG, repeat it, then say VER-PLEEG. Repeat until it feels natural. Then KUN, KUNDIG, KUNDIGE. (Repeat in between if needed) Then combine VERPLEEG+KUNDIGE. It will work! And I hope you will work as a verpleegkundige soon! Good luck!

A good breakdown of the word verpleegkundige... but it's all about the phonetics. The Dutch "ee" sounds very different from the American "ee". Our "ee" is more like the "a" in "ate" (English). The main problem with (Hollands) Dutch for most foreigners is the "g" sound, which is rather harsh and created in the throat. Pronounciation of "Scheveningen", where the "sch" sounds like "sg" is always a nice testcase... LOL

You have bread, cheese and schouderham so you can make a tosti for Elyse. If she likes sausages maybe she'll eat bread with salami, boerenmetworst or sliced chicken filet. Once in a while bread with a sliced banana or a sliced boiled egg with cucumbersalad is also healthy. When I was young I had to eat my first slice of bread with something savoury like sausage, meat, vegetables or cheese. For the next ones I was free to choose sweet toppings.

Every town has at least once a week a “farmers market” eg Markt. Unlike in the us fresh produce is less expensive there. And it’s great fun to shop there.

Hi, how are you guys?🤗😘😘

Watch Eric and Tammy before you start experimenting. They did most of the work for you and published on their Soul to Soul Travels channel. Otherwise you might end up with some amazingly strange concoctions. On the other had: could be delicious,but never tried it. All these salads: put them on toast to try first. As far as seafood is concerned:give it a try. It differs from the stuff you get in the US. Have fun exploring.😃😆😎

Ow and very nice you are trying the Dutch language so much!

Verpleegkundig (ver - pleeg - kun - dig) ☺️☺️. If you see two a e o u, they call it 'lange a e o u". ☺️

Something different: as soon as your daughter starts learning / reading in Dutch, you might want to visit De Kleine Kapitein, the most beautiful children’s bookstore. Botersloot 173 - with the Library to your right and the Markthal to your left, and then just a 150 meters walk.

Tips if you guys want to try Dutch snacks at the market: fresh poffertjes, stroopwafels or kibbeling. At a snackbar: kroket, frikadel, Fries with mayonnaise-satey sauce and onions DONT TRY DROP / LICORICE Never met a forener who truely likes this😄

for the coffee I can recommend the Dolce Gusto machine is delicious coffee. Those are cups that you put in and you have them in different types. Those cups from Cappucino to the one with regular coffee and all delicious in taste, is also very popular in the Netherlands

You can eat the salades on everything saltine crackers, Melba toast or a slice or any kind of bread. Whatever you like. I alsof put my eggs in the fridge, nothing wrong with that.

Hi Dianna. Take your time to learn the language. Dutch isn't easy to learn for foreigners. My mother was English, she came over to the Netherlands in 1957 and married my dad. She learned Dutch by translation books and just trying. Just try, don't worry about pronunciation, listen to Dutch news on television. Just ask anything from anyone, neighbours, colleagues. Don't hesitate, don't hold back. The majority of the Dutcheese 😅 will help and understand 👍 Go for it.

YES! I'm Dutch and i hate seafood, sometimes i feel like i'm the only one in the world who doesn't like it.

You bought the correct butter, without palm oil and ham and rosbief are much better from the butcher, verpleegkundige is hard word to say! Love your vlog!

Lots to explore! Good luck. Tip: you can mirroring your selfie camera, so we can read what you are showing us.

All of these salades are made to put on bread basically, or Melba toast crackers. Not exactpy health food though but for the ocassional bite will be ok. For a more healthy bread, I like "volkoren" bread, which stands for whole grain, and is a legally protected term. Our children love houmous on their bread as healthy option, or real pindakaas (not the Calvé crap that is laced with palm oil) We try to keep them from eating the very processed "vleeswaren" because there is a lot of dextrose in them and tons of preservatives, tons of salt and saturated fats etc. They obviously will like these as much as anybody, especially when you let them get used to that "taste"...

You go girl, you will learn dutch quick

Hey Diana, nice video ! Few things here: If you record a video, make sure you use the large lenses on the rear of your phone, because the little one on the front of you phone makes look everything in mirror image.... and so you are in mirror image but also everything you're showing us (Like the salads) were in mirror image.... It is such a nice video but entirely in mirror image, which can be avoided, again, by using the right camera's ! Food, well you should talk to Eric and Tammy about this, since they've gone through several world dishes, available here in The Netherlands. I'd say start with nice and tame Indonesian food, a simple Gado Gado-dish may do the trick to get used to the Indonesian flavor I'd say. Or you could start with a mild Surinam Roti-dish... Or of course the total extra ordinair Dutch quisine ...-> so lightly salted cooked potato's, lightly salted cooked fresh crops and a piece of meat with tasteful gravy, or seafood, or a piece of vegetarian/vegan meat replacement of course. It really is not the season, but meshing the crops and potato's together and the winterfood of STAMPOT is there, yumyum. Go look it up at the internet how to make Stampot in al of its variations ! Write in Dutch, that's important when you use google ;-) In fact all recopies of all yum yum food are available on internet, but you've got to write what you are looking to cook in Dutch ;-) step by step Diana, just take it step by step and you'll get there !

You don't like fish 😱, that's a shame, but you still should try some Kibbeling on a weekly farmers Market, Michael will love it and maybe you'll turn around! 🤤😋 You still have to put some pepper and salt on the roast beef and some people use mustard! And most patients will call their verpleegkundige a zuster (sister), because they used to be nuns! ✌🏼

I put the eggs also in the refridgerator, because it is easier

just start making the salades yourself , very fresh , very Dutch, very cheap, make your daughter some scrammbled eggs with tomatos , you have to flavour the rossbeef yourself with salt and fresh peper

As for the fish thing..... most kids like "kibbeling" which is made of typical white fish, dipped in a dough and then (deep)fried. You can ask yourself how healthy THAT is but anywayzzz....it might be worthwhile trying ? Get it from a good fish store and not from the supermarket ! Ask Tammy and Eric....they have some experience with "Kibbeling" and "Lekkerbekjes" already (and liked it !!)

The roastbeef you can seasoning yourself withsome salt and pepper.

Hi, you can also eat the salads with some stokbrood, i like you're video's 👍

Add some salt and pepper to taste with the rosbief. Bit of mayonaise is nice as well on it if you like mayonaise.

Rosbief on bread: take 2 slices of bread. put 2 slices of rosbief on and seasoning is with some salt & pepper.

Living like Americans in the Netherlands: eating processed packed stuff from the grocery store. Poffertjes are best homemade and fresh, if you don’t like to cook, buy them from a Poffertjeskar.

Kipkerrie is my favourite. So good on crackers. Could also eat it on some bread. I think most kids for breakfast have bread with something savoury and then something sweet. I would take her through the grocery store and let het pick some stuff to try.

The rosbief is indeed quite flavorless so you need to put a little pepper an salt to taste on it. I wonder what Elise thinks of the Chocomel? Would be great if you can do a tasting with her, also try Fristi, I think she’ll love it.

Tom kha khai is a famous Thai dish. Johma does a great job of catching the essence of this dish in a salade. Schouderham, is the ham of the shoulder. I personally like Beenham, ham from the leg. Nespresso is a good option also when you moved to your new home. The capsules can be bought in their stores or online. There are also alternatives you can buy at the supermarket, however they are in my view not as good. As others already commented, a bit of salt and pepper transforms the Rosbief. Back to the salads, i normally use them on small pieces of toast. Good for a party or an in between snack. Although tasty, don’t overdo it, it is containing mayonnaise or something similar which is to be consumed in small quantities. Although you’re not a big fan of fish, be brave and give it a try. Kibbeling and paling are nice and especially kibbeling is liked by people who normally do not like fish. Zalm (Salmon) is more fishy, so that I would not start with. Try the different sorts of bread, the darker the more taste the bread has and then we have spelt bread, zuurdesem bread and all other kinds of 🥖

The salmon in the Netherlands ate different from USA foods. Joust give it to your husband and try it small bit.

You can pimp your ham, cheese and so on with cress, bean sprouts and other fresh stuff. Or mayo.... but that's less healthy :D

We put salt and pepper on our Rosbief, to get more flavour,you should try the York ham is very good. Zuster is another word for nurse, a patiënt use only the word zuster, and a male nurse is a broeder

There is also brown "tijgerbrood" ! Dark bread is more tastier and healthy!

The rosbief with peper and salt and little bit

With regard to the coffeemaker... I would just visit a big store like the MediaMarkt, they have a ton of different models, and often they have employees that know everything about them. And remember you don't need to buy one right away. The Dutch are direct, as you probably know by now, so don't be embarrased to take pictures of the price tags and model numbers, you can be honest and tell them you're going to lookup reviews on youtube first.

Hi Dianna, i love to see your families first experiences in the Netherlands. My advice would be to post your videos not in mirror view. The text on the foods etc. is hard to read.

The rosbief isn't supposed to be seasoned. You can add it yourself if you like. I like it to be just as it is. You will manage the word verpleegkundige just fine, in time! Dark bread is much healthier than white bread. I don't have any food suggestions, I would advise you to go shopping with Eric and Tammy as they're in the Netherlands for some time already.

Think about yoir American drivers licentie. Ypu can ask for a Dutsch licentie zat the toen hall. I suppose Eric can help you with that.

What do you think about the taste difference of the chocolate milk in the US and here in The Netherlands?

@daring2godutch673

I love it! It actually tastes like it has real chocolate in it, and not corn syrup.

Schouderham is actually not ham but cooked shoulder, I find it a bit cheating, but it is cheaper than the real ham, which is denoted as achterham which is idiot because the hams of a pig is off course at the rear end or achtereind. But it is all about profit and money for the sales man. Rosbief or Roast Beef is salted at the outside and roasted as a big lump of meat until half cooked or medium rare (rosé). The real meat taste is what you taste in the middle and the seasoning from the outside, but because it is sliced very thin as a topping on a sandwich, or like carpaccio some extra seasoning is ok if you wish. Some pepper and salt mainly, but some special dressing can be very tasty. Maybe some cucumber salade as well?🙂

Try Lu (that’s the brand) mini crackers, to carry your salads.

Incorrect, but often used: verpleger/verpleegkunde (m)=broeder/brother and verpleegster/verpleegkundige (f)=zuster/sister. A mnemonic: verpleegkundige consists of kundige, which is related to the English cunning (showing skill) and (ver)plegen with pledge (promise or care for)

Salades on melba toast :-) Some you can put on bread. wouldnt do tuc. Too salty... Poffertjes should be warm with butter and powdered sugar. Roastbeef: its lovely and plain. You need to put some pepper and salt on it. Its verpleegkundige :-)

Zalm means salmon and is very good. 11:20 'Verpleegkundigen' used to be called 'verpleegster' or 'verpleger'. I don't see what was wrong with those words. Anyway.. There is an enormous shortage in nurses in all fields, so I guess if you want to be a nurse in the Netherlands, then that you will be. Once you've got your papers, of course. Bye.
