🇩🇪 American's try Seasonal German Food! Spargel, Spaghetti Eis and More!

We really enjoyed trying some new, unique eats here in Germany. While we know Döner isn't native to Germany, we had to attempt to correct our past mistakes this time and hopefully got it right! 😅 Let us know if there are any other seasonal dishes we should be on the lookout for with fall and winter coming up next!

Most people would order spaghetti ice not to take away, but in an icecream parlour (Eisdiele) where it will be served on a cold plate with a base of very cold whipped cream covered by the vanilla icecream noodles topped with the strawberry sauce and the shaved white chocolate. In this way the spaghetti ice doesn't melt as quickly.

As a Dutchie, I have to say Belgium has the classic and best Asparagus dish. Hollandaise sauce, potatoes, ham, and crumbled hard boiled egg.

Die Spargelzeit endet jedes Jahr am 24. Juni, dem Johannistag.

Asparagus is a spring tradition here and is eaten with Hollandaise sauce. Which is also delicious if you fry the asparagus and then candied it with maple syrup 😉

It is always great to try new things.

My favorite way to eat fresh white aspergus is to combine it with smoked salmon cooked with some good boiled potatoes . It is a fancy treat for sure! The aspergus needs to be finger thick. Any thicker is lower quality.

Sc Hollandaise: Lots of buter, white wine, egg yoke, salt, pepper, lemmon juice ... doesn´t need more. I would be disappointed if it´s strawberry sirup from a bottle. It needs to be a sauce made from fresh strawberries.

Kebap or Doner is like our European Mc Donalds used as a 'every day' food but in some places it taste so GOOOOOOOD and in some place is less but one can always get it down when hungry. I personally like Doner and the REAL white souse is just out of this world delicious. Depence on where to buy and once one find a good place than it will easy go down in a stomach

That was a propper Döner 😊

The „I“ in Idstein sounds like the „i“ in „invincible“ 🙂 Nice Video!

Nothing fits white asparagus with sauce Hollondaise and potatoes better than a Schnitzel or a beefsteak 😊👍 That's my tip for your next try! Next year 😁

First Look of Frankfurt am main and Steigenberger hotel is 5 Stars hotel . And Spagetti ice is nice. I live near Frankfurt am main..

I mean that was a proper döner but it definetly doesn't have to be red meat! I always get it with chicken which is also very normal, maybe try it that way?

A thick hollandaise sauce is a good sign for a selfmade one ;) Since its an instant emulsion with the egg, and wine and butter. And it literally has to be made on order and keep the temperature otherwise itll seperate the emulsion. So thickness is always a good sign. Some are even like Vanilla Pudding/Sauce. One reason that white asparagus is expensive is that they have to be kinda dug out from under the earth individually. there is no machine doing it.

Man, macht die Mütze ab bei Mittag Essen!!

Well the thing is that Hollandaise is in 99% of all Restaurants an industrial product which can be stored and warmed up when needed. So when it has "an aftertaste" then it was very likely an industrial product. A handmade Hollandaise though tastes different (way better of course) + has to be served instantly and can´t be stored in order to warm up when needed, besides it is also not easy to make..not that it is a complicated sauce but the used technique to make it makes it not easy to make because the used egg must not go lumpy which is the hard part in the making process otherwise you can throw it into the bin/trash can and start again right from the beginning and making it fresh needs at least 20-25 minutes..and considering all of that = that´s why Restaurants barly rarely serve a handmade Hollandaise and the taste is depending on the personal seasoning = the proportion of salt + pepper (I use white pepper + a little bit of cayenne pepper) + fresh pressed lemon juice while the industrial product is already seasoned and 100% not with fresh pressed lemon juice but with an industrial lemon supplement which never saw a fresh lemon..

If you are in y Hometown of Hamburg one day try our special dish "Labscaus" at the "Old comerial Tea Room" at least once. Loscouse is a dish from the 16./17. century, originaly made from leftovers on the ships at sea.

Idstein (pronounced Eedstine) is truly a beautiful town. If you went by train (RE 20, RB 21/22 from Frankfurt), Limburg is also well worth a visit and only a couple of stops further north. Spaghetti Ice really does look more appealing when served in a decent bowl, like glass or porcelain! Glad you obviously enjoyed it, though 🥰

Nice video. Here in Baden, southern part of Baden-Württemberg, we traditionally eat Spargel mit Pfannkuchen und Schinken (pancakes and ham). You should make Spargel at home. It's not difficult and much better (and cheaper).
