We know that we like the cheese--which is a good thing, because there is a LOT of it! There are all kinds: with cumin, with nettle, old, very old, not old, young, very young. Some of it not so easy to tell apart from the others if you're not.. Dutch.
There are many other dairy products that we are learning about. Karne melk: buttermilk, easy to find and fun to bake with. Vla: custard that people can eat for breakfast, some comes in a carton that's split so you can have chocolate and vanilla, separated in your bowl. Many kinds of yogurt, one called kwark. Need to try that.
We also tried some Dutch food the other day at a neighborhood restaurant. Jaffa had the pancake (pannenkoeken) and Eben had the mustard soup. Both were very nice!
Finally, sprinkles. For breakfast or snack - on bread with butter. That is the proper way. Don't tell anyone I steal them for my vanilla ice cream.
We'll talk about stroepwaffels later. Oh, and if you are looking for peanut butter, they have creamy and chunky 😃 just look for pindakaas - peanut cheese.
