They have lived together for years perfectly fine eating what suits them and it’s not an issue because they respect one another’s taste.

My main take-away here is, Uyen should try more types of pålæg on her bread to see what she likes, and German Boyfriend is actually a pretty good cook, he just needs to find things that are a little lighter on the salt, be careful to avoid the vinegar and onions overpowering other flavors, and avoid parsley at all costs. He's actually a great baker, though, compared to most people. Also, I'd love to know what you two would think about the Danish frikadelle compared to its German cousin. Ours is a little less complicated and maybe a little saltier (if you use premade frikadelle spice-mix), but come out looking about the same.

I immigrated to the US in my late forties. And within a year, I suffered from severe bread-withdrawal-syndrome *snorts with laughter* Germans are kinda obsessed with bread. It's eaten with just about every meal (sometimes served as a side, sometimes it's the main event) and I can't think of a day in my life when I would rather NOT eat a bit of bread. German bread overall is a lot more dense than what you get in the US, it's constructed to support all the stuff that goes on top. The variety of bread in the Germanic countries (Germany, Switzerland, Austria, parts of Italy and France ... and probably some more) is stunning. From delicate white breads to chunky dark Pumpernickel, rolls, loafs, pretzels ... when you can imagine it, some baker there is already selling it. It's eaten with any kind of topic you want. The most basic is butter, and nothing is as comforting as eating fresh, warm bread with way too much butter. From what I understand (from following some Mexican cooking channels), Germans love bread like Mexicans do tortillas. I learned how to bake my own sourdough out of desperation. And got my American husband addicted to it as well ;) I'll cut some slices into squares and serve with several different toppings (e.g. cream cheese, home made garlic butter, cheese, sopressata, salami, ham, olives, tomatoes, onions, pepperoncini, pickles ...).

I am pretty sure it would feel like "tasteless" to you as most Germans would feel the Mexican Breakfast beeing "inedible", too. I started to eat Breakfasts from other Cultures for some Time, and it was hard to get to the "German Breakfast" back everytime - especially after the "Asian Times" Regardless if it was Korean, Chinese or Japanese Breakfast, it was really hard to go back as either it was completeley tasteless or tasted "salty" and nothing else - some (as the "Frischkäse") even was tasting like rotten. I can not say for sure for Mexican Food as I never had authentic (aka made by a Mexican Mom) Food, but for what I made for myself according to what I thought of beeing "authentic", it was hard to get used to it - Stomach was really rebelling the first 2 Weeks until I got used to it - and the Taste was not the best at first as well until I got used to it - and now I love it.

A lot of German recipes are very popular in the U.S. but since they were often popularized by Jewish immigrants from Europe, most people in the U.S. consider them Jewish food. Before moving to Berlin, I always thought that matso balls or gefilte fish were exclusively Jewish. It turned out that they are staple food in Germany, although Jews often give them a particular twist. But I find both recipes equally delicious.

It seems to me that the main issue Uyen has with German food is that the taste and texture are too different from her current palate. As a Vietnamese living in Germany, I face many similar problems (especially with parsley :D). In the long term, this should be improved so that it becomes convenient for her in daily life. It might not be possible for her to get Asian food every time she is hungry, and honestly, it is great to be able to enjoy local food wherever you go. My solution for this (as I also love cooking myself): allow Uyen to have a "transition" phase with German food: - Identify the textures and tastes she doesn't like and change/adapt them with Asian cooking techniques that she already knows. Most Asians find German food too salty, dry, and not appetizing. The last points stem from the fact that the German kitchen uses fewer ingredients that give the umami taste than the Vietnamese kitchen (that's why she likes Maggi so much). Your meatball works well as it contains many ingredients that give the food more moisture. When you cook German food next time, reduce the amount of salt, use a bit of Asian sauces like fish sauce and oyster sauce to impart a bit of Uyen's familiar flavors. Avoid overcooking meat and use parts that have a bit more fat (e.g., Schweinenacken). Semmelknödel is quite hardcore, actually. Maybe start with small Klöße. Instead of having a full German meal, you can combine German dishes with rice and Uyen's Vietnamese food. - Make dishes that might be the "enabler" for her to get used to some ingredients. It is similar to shrimp paste in SEA where one or two dishes make you get used to it. For example, for parsley: avoid fresh parsley as it is the most intensive. You can use dried herbs mix with a bit of parsley and other ingredients (e.g., oregano as she likes it) for sauces or toppings (e.g., pasta or omelets) without her knowing before eating. - For her first time eating something new, if possible, please use good ingredients (you only have to make a small amount) and not pre-made food from the supermarket, as the first impression is quite important, and if you have a bad first impression, it will be more difficult to get used to it later.

@linhtm8083
10 ай бұрын
@@blablabla-fp9ch well have you tried the Oyster Sauce? It is an example for cooking ingredient that gives the umami beside being a bit salty. Being from north Vietnam, Uyens Taste might be already be a bit more salty than people from middle and south vietnam but as the food in her home area might be cooked with fish sauce and bột canh (a mixture of salt and other ingredient including glutamat) and eaten with alot of vegetables and rice, in general it tastes less salty and more complex. In comparision to that, we mostly use salt in german so we can only get the saltiness from that. Magi also has its own taste beside being salty and therefore fit better to asian taste palate than pure salt. In the last years I found that using the red salt that sell in german supermarket like rewe also makes the food "softer" and better for my asian taste. Maybe someone with more knownledge can explain this.

Germany being roughly in the middle of Europe, and linking the "barbaric" north with the mediterranean former Roman empire, has always exchanged food culture with neighbors. Many thing that are considered local specialities, can have a nearly identical counterpart somewhere else far away.

You are looking for Frikadellen (meat balls), Kartoffelsalat (potato salad), Apfelstrudel, Leberkäse (but that's usually not made at home, usually you buy IT somewhere, because of the equipment you would need to make it), Semmelknödel (dumplings), Pilzrahmsauce (mushroom sauce) and Rotkraut (takes a long time to cook, maybe you can get it canned and you add some spices, apple, Red wine, etc to give some more flavour) For the Frikadellen you need minced meat (50% pork 50% beef, WITHOUT being pre salted/spices, IT get's to salty/spicy, when you cook it), salt, pepper (freshly grounded), onion, mustard, eggs, old and dry bread (water to soak it in), majoran or oregano, parsley, maybe a Spice Mix you like. Mix it together with your hand and taste it before cooking. It should be a ratio of 500g minced meat, 1,5-2 of the small breads, and 2 Eggs. They should be kinda soft and "fluffy" after cooking. The Semmelknödel are made from old and dry bread too. I don't know the ratio of the ingredients but you need milk, eggs, ham cubes (boil it shortly in water to Take some of the saltiness away), parsley, Salt and freshly grounded nutmeg. I think there is a sweet Version too 🤔. If the "dough" ist ready you put the Semmelknödel in mildly boiling water. If they float atop, they should be done. Be very careful forming the Semmelknödel. If you Made a mistake they will fall apart. For the potato salad there are thousands of recipes. I think each Family has their own 😅 The mushroom sauce is quite simple. First clean the mushrooms (Champignons or Pfifferlinge), cut the Like you prefer them, finely dice an onion. Heat up Butter in a pan until it starts to get brown, put the mushrooms in and stir fry them a bit. Add the onions and wait til they turn glassy. Add a bit of flour (~teaspoon). Add a Shot of White wine or better brandy (be careful, the Brandy can burn). Let it reduce for a bit. Add a cup of cream and wait for it to get nice and thick to your liking. Taste it and add Salt, Pepper and Parsley to it. The Rotkraut needs a Lot of work and time. It's usually made in large quantities and Frozen after that, so you can use IT, when you need it. My father was a chef and makes it once a year mostly for christmas. He cooks it with the fat of goose, duck or pork, depending on which one he has around 😅 you need rotkraut, apples, rice, applejuice, red wine, cloves, cinnamon (whole), bayleaf, Salt and Onion. He sears the Rotkraut with the onions first, adds the apples, juice, Red wine, dry rice, etc and lets it cook on Low Heat for hours. You can adjust the colour of the Rotkraut with acids (red) like vinegar or Lemon juice and bases (purple) Like sugar or natron. That's why it's called Rotkraut (Red kraut) and Blaukraut (blue Kraut) in different regions, but the blue is more Like a purple.

I feel sorry for him. He went through so much effort to cook for her all day, and it's fresh and special stuff, and she hits him with stuff like "It's not that I dislike German food, I dislike your cooking". Like...ouch. v.v I often feel she's not nearly as nice to him as he is to her

They are both very nice to each other, I just think they communicate it differently and they are different people, but very understanding about their personality/cultural differences :)

Damn this couple attachment style is so healthy. I can’t imagine ever telling my partner something they made is a 4/10. I would just lie and say it’s delicious, and then when they ask can they make it again, I would say, I’m in the mood for something else. Lol:

I think a good way to introduce someone to German food (any foreign food really) is to start with familiar ingredients and flavour profiles and build from there. Not necessarily whole meals but rather single dishes, even if they're only side dishes. If Uyen likes spicy, try making spicy goulash. If she likes cucumbers, try highliting the cucumber in a salad (fresh, brine pickled, Gewürzgurken). If she likes soft bread/rolls, don't make her eat Roggenbrot right away etc

I am from Brandenburg and we have a very simlpe dish made of cucumber salad, fried eggs and mashed potatoes. Maybe thats someting simple to start with. Everyone can personalise cucumber Salad and mashed potatoes, might not be such a culture shock.

MAX has already done quite a lot of videos were he cooks for different KZitemrs. All of them are called: "Ein Tag persönlicher Koch für ..." He also prepares for each person individually and does not just cook random dishes but tries to please each persons taste - as you should do as a personal cook 😊 While he still introduces the KZitemrs to new culinary experiences 👍

Thank you for sharing your life with us, so refreshing to see young people who love each other and are willing to learn from each other. Wishing you many happy years together and a great life!!

I think a US meatloaf is the better equivalent, since it's not a ball, and with bread and eggs. Balls you can only make smaller, cause the heat need to meet the core. But the other thing in the oven, would also translate to meatloaf. It's just a finer grain.

cute video and I wish for a second part^^. Just to give the information: Knödel is not Knödel. I could count at least 10 different variations of Knödel, because every area in germany has its own kind. I personally prefer the ones that are just made with boiled potatoes, starch and salt. You could fill them with croutons before boiling if one wished for bread xd. Maybe Uyen would like those, since they neither include bread in the dough nor parsley haha

Yeah, I also like the potato versions more. There are also really good ready-made versions which you just have to form into a ball. My favorite ones are Seidenknödel by the brand "Henglein" when I don't have time to make them from scratch. You can get it in every cold section of a bigger supermarket like Kaufland, Edeka or Rewe. Maybe also an option for German boyfriend to serve them to Uyen next time as an alternative. I also enjoy it to slice up the leftover Knödel on the next day and fry them in a pan. It's so good! 😍

@@myrillya Oh yees, frying and then eating them with the leftover sauce is the best! Just out of interest: It sounds like you are making them from scratch from time to time. I did that twice, starting the evening before and honestly there was so much (passive) effort in those and I didnt even taste a difference to the pre-made powders that you just mix with water + salt. Do you actually notice a big difference in taste or consistency? The only differnce I notice is when I buy the pre formed ones (similar to the ones he used) because I find them way more dense.

@@IsabelO.O Yes, they taste more like potatoes. 😅😂 However, I must admit that I don't make a classic German recipe, it's a Silesian recipe from my grandma, so it might be a bit different to German ones actually (I'm not quite sure). There is definitely a difference in taste. Consistency is completely different. Most powder stuff is more dense while self-made ones are super ... Squishy? Idk how to describe it 😂 The recipe I know isn't too much work, you need to let the potatoes cool down, but that's it. 🤔
