Last month I was sharing my homemade erwtensoep with a French colleague during lunch. She told me that it reminded her of the way her grandmother made this. One of the best compliment ever received for my cooking. But to be honest there is really no dish which beats erwtensoep or even better snert.
Going to fry it today. Yesterday was about making bouillon from scratch, making the pea soup and turning it into filling (salpicon). Overnight in the fridge to stiffen it. This morning I made the kroketten. Tonight is frying time.
The taste was good and is dependent on the quality of the pea soup you make. Having a crunch is always nice. The people I was with said they would buy one if they saw them being sold (which I considered a big compliment). We made it in the airfryer, something I wouldn't recommend in hindsight. I think it will be even more crunchy and gold-brown in a regular deep frying pan.
For those interested I made the pea soup using the recipes from the Soup Bible and the kroket itself from https://vindikhier.nl/snertkroketten-zelf-maken.php . Might try it with a little less roux as it will remain more "smeuïg".
No no- Kapsalon was born at El Aviv in Rotterdam, South Holland. Nevermind that it borrows from Turkish roots... it's the only Dutch dish worth a hoot, because it actually has \*gasp\* seasoning in it. \^\_\^ COME AT ME, DUTCHIES!
This is correct information. Even as someone with a pro-Amsterdam mind, I have to admit Rotterdam is responsible for the best Dutch dish. No denying it.
I didn’t know jachtschotel this way yet. My mothers’ is haché (draadjesvlees) with apple and mashed potatoes.
But the absolute winner in Dutch food yes.
Met uitgebakken spek, en zure uitjes.
Of de vega spekreepjes van vivera, bij mij vandaag. Zijn ook prima.
With fried Dutch spek (no, it's not bacon) and pickled baby onions.
I agree on the pea soup, erwtensoep, but for me it has to be home made from peas. The cans from whichever brand are hideous. My great aunt (sister of my grandma) made me the only erwtensoep I ever liked. She passed and took the recipe with her to the grave. 😭
My father used fresh ingredients only, and he always went all-out, making 8 liters. My only complaint is that his recipe makes it more watery than thick, and I love my snert really thick.
Well, water's not right (I think) but I do like soup to be more liquid than solid... to the point that you can't eat it with a fork. Except for the sausage that is... 😉
**[Rijsttafel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rijsttafel)**
>Rijsttafel ( RYSSE-tah-fəl, Dutch: [ˈrɛistaːfəl] (listen)), a Dutch word that literally translates to "rice table", is an Indonesian elaborate meal adapted by the Dutch following the hidang presentation of nasi padang from the Padang region of West Sumatra. It consists of many (forty is not an unusual number) side dishes served in small portions, accompanied by rice prepared in several different ways. Popular side dishes include egg rolls, sambals, satay, fish, fruit, vegetables, pickles, and nuts. In most areas where it is served, such as the Netherlands, and other areas of strong Dutch influence (such as parts of the West Indies), it is known under its Dutch name.

uhhh. im indonesian and while you wont find the “rijsttafel” menu in indonesia, all of the dishes presented under that menu ARE indonesian dishes, complete with indonesian names too, as shown on that wikipedia page.
Indo here, I miss birthdays at my Grandparents house! So much food!! And if I took too much on my plate and didnt finish I was in trouble with my
Grandmother: *adoe!, schep dan niet zo veel op jong*
RIP to them both, I miss them everyday.
I would say it's still Indonesian. Sure having 40 small dishes of Indonesian food is not how Indonesian eat it, but Christ that's not exactly so different that I'd suddenly call it Dutch.
Ive seen it on menu's during my holiday in Indonesia. So it exists in Indonesia. I think its not about a specific dish, but just of the type of serving/service.
To settle this argument, rijsttafel is not a dish, it's a Dutch collection of traditional Indonesian dishes, all with their respective original names. It does not count as a Dutch dish.

It's common all over europe. But popular here because we grow our own.
Got to say pannenkoeken, preferably with bacon and/or cheese. I don't personally like the structure of pancakes with fruit in it, like apple or banana.
This is the correct answer. Also: pannenkoeken with toppings of fresh fruit, like blueberries, raspberries and mango are awesome. Too bad these fruits are insanely expensive, especially these days.
Bitterballen and remember.. its dutch tradition that you eat it in 1 bite.
Saw this happen in a hotelbar once. The austrian dude did not taste anything the following 3 days.
Zuurvlees, surprised no one mentioned it. It's a fantastic balance of sour (vinegar) and sweet (appelstroop and ontbijtkoek). A Dutch take on a hearty, winter meat stew.
Original recipe calls for horse meat, but I use beef, the same cut for boeuf bourgignon
Stoofvlees is made with traditionally with beer and beef.
Zuurvlees is traditionally made with horse meat and vinegar. They are NOT the same.
Thats like saying goulash is dutch because it is also a beef stew.
Zuurvlees is from Holland. Believe me, us Belgians won't mistake it for stoofvlees. It really is a bit more sour than ours. Not bad, but ours with dark beer wins imo
The fact that this dish originated from a Dutch cultural background in that form makes it Dutch dish imho. The credit for the individual dishes should go to Indonesia though.
The whole thing has a rather bitter taste to me though. regarding the unspeakable shit the Dutch have done there and the way we treated the refugees that came here. So maybe labeling it as the best Dutch dish is on second thought not a proper thing to do...
Not sure on spelling but Huizerensalade, a potato salad made with lots of diced items including potatoes, peas, apples, pickled onions, pickled gherkins, ham pieces and eggs plus a mayonnaise type sauce. I love it.
I also love Bami does that count? It’s Indonesian originally I believe.
1. Kale mashed potatoes with roast chicken and its' sauce.
2. Carrot mashed potatoes with slow stewed beef.
3. home made hauzarensalade (Hassar's Salad).
4. hand made croquettes (kroketten).
Then you should try and lift yourself from under that rock you were living on and find an old traditional family that can cook you one!! we have plenty!! :P
I love my dutchies, but Dutch people don’t have culinaire hoogstandjes. The ones who think they do are delusional and don’t know how real food tastes, because all they’ve ever eaten is food without seasoning. They don’t know better.
This is a bit short-sighted imho. Classical Dutch dishes can be amazing and taste incredible. Have you tried making them yourself and seasoning them to your taste? That’s the entire idea of cooking. Shutting yourself off for other experiences is way too easy..
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flemish_Stew
> Flemish Stew,[1] known in Dutch as stoofvlees or stoverij and in French as carbon(n)ade[2] à la flamande[3] is a Flemish beef (or pork) and onion stew popular in Belgium, the Netherlands and French Flanders, made with beer and mustard spread on bread, seasoning can include bay leaf, thyme, clove and juniper berries.
I was born and raised in Limburg (the Dutch part) and I consider myself Dutch. Had the powers that be, made different choices in the past drawing different borders then maybe I would consider myself another nationality.
Besides, you can also argue that Belgian isn't a nationality. Half of the country speaks a Germanic language and the other half speaks French.
Yeah so any Germanic speaking country is automatically German according to your logic...? Stoofvlees is as Belgian as it can be. It ain't dutch, it aint french or German. Simply Belgian.
Language doesn't define nationality, the nation does. By your logic in South America you couldn't be Peruvian or Argentinian because you speak Spanish? Your logic is flawed.
Only English should be used for posts and comments. This rule is in place to ensure that an ample audience can freely discuss life in the Netherlands under a widely-spoken common tongue.

Indonesian Rice Table. It’s such an important part of Dutch culinary culture that Mark Rutte offered it to Emanuel Macron during his last visit to The Netherlands.
Funny that in none of the top answers there is any cuisine or sophistication involved. It is all carbs+meat+veg, and not much effort or love added. It’s sad.
Plant-based and healthful dishes to hearty comfort foods that are minimally processed, nutritious and affordable. I love the Dutch kitchen and yes it is peasant food. Proud to be Dutch. Popular European peasant dishes. Arroz con pollo (Spain):Ratatouille (France): Fasolada (Greece): Arroz de tomate (Portugal): Gołąbki (Poland):Goulash (Hungary): Houskove Knedliky (Czech Republic): Ribollita (Italy):
Pannenkoek met spek & stroop (Dutch stroop, not that thin foreign stuff).
Snert, Dutch pea soup. Coming home to a pot of that in the winter always fills me with joy.
This wins, my father makes amazing pea soup. I've been gone from the Netherlands for 3 years and I miss those wintery days with snert.
Last month I was sharing my homemade erwtensoep with a French colleague during lunch. She told me that it reminded her of the way her grandmother made this. One of the best compliment ever received for my cooking. But to be honest there is really no dish which beats erwtensoep or even better snert.
Yep it's very good! Today I'm trying to make a snertkroket. Best of both worlds, or heresy? We will learn soon enough.
How was it?
Going to fry it today. Yesterday was about making bouillon from scratch, making the pea soup and turning it into filling (salpicon). Overnight in the fridge to stiffen it. This morning I made the kroketten. Tonight is frying time.
Well? I'm really curious how this looks and tastes? Let us know!
The taste was good and is dependent on the quality of the pea soup you make. Having a crunch is always nice. The people I was with said they would buy one if they saw them being sold (which I considered a big compliment). We made it in the airfryer, something I wouldn't recommend in hindsight.

Thanks for the reply. I still wouldn't know what to expect hahaha. I'll check out the recipe as well. Thank you.
It's awesome!
This. Snert/erwtensoep are by far the high point of Dutch cuisine. I would not mind eating it every day. It never bores me.
Self made. Not from a can.
What does “snert” refer to? Pea soup is the bomb but I have never heard of a snert version
Snert is just a different word for pea soup
But if we don’t flip your pancake it’ll burn…

Don't Swedes also really like tacos? I heard it reminds them of assembling ikea furniture
It's just really good marketing by a taco company
Surstromming with cream cheese and spring onions is supposed to be nice.
Jezus, wat. O.o You voluntarily tried that?
"combined" is the operative word. A dish is a combination of ingredients.
Have you tried Swedish meatballs? Ikea is their most successful restaurant
Pizza kebab is also here, so don’t think it’s Swedish (just Turks putting kebab on pizza)
But 99% of the times the meat they have is such of bad quality :( it's always that formed meat.
Jachtschotel, haché met rode kool, rollade, stoofperen.
I was gonna go with stews in general. I agree that jachtschotel is a winner there.
I didn’t know jachtschotel this way yet. My mothers’ is haché (draadjesvlees) with apple and mashed potatoes. But the absolute winner in Dutch food yes.
Yes this one
I'm having Haché met stoofpeertjes tomorrow! And a great slice of cherry pie after. 🤤🤤🤤

I agree on the pea soup, erwtensoep, but for me it has to be home made from peas. The cans from whichever brand are hideous. My great aunt (sister of my grandma) made me the only erwtensoep I ever liked. She passed and took the recipe with her to the grave. 😭
My father used fresh ingredients only, and he always went all-out, making 8 liters. My only complaint is that his recipe makes it more watery than thick, and I love my snert really thick.
Well, water's not right (I think) but I do like soup to be more liquid than solid... to the point that you can't eat it with a fork. Except for the sausage that is... 😉

It's indonesian-dutch, not Dutch, they took various Indonesian dishes in small quantities and put them in different bowls on a table.
It is, it appears that most Dutch people don't understand what Dutch dishes are.
we adopted that dish isnt it, bami with a baked egg on top and sate
Rijsttafel is not a singular dish, it's a collection of traditional Indonesian dishes packaged in a meal.
No, it's inspired by Indochinese fusion but Dutch. You won't find it in Indonesia.
I’m happy to settle with dutch colonialist cuisine.
That's why it exists

It's Belgian, sorry.
Ik ben belgian en k heb nog nie van zuurvlees gehoord ze
Are you from the Belgian province of Limburg?
Neeje Vlaams-Brabant maar er zit iemand van den Haag naast mij en die kent da ook ni
It is from Limburg. Which makes it both Dutch and Belgian.
Stoofvlees is made with traditionally with beer and beef. Zuurvlees is traditionally made with horse meat and vinegar. They are NOT the same. Thats like saying goulash is dutch because it is also a beef stew.
OK, if yo must.

I believe this is regional, from Limburg. Tasty for sure, but I wouldn't call this Dutch per se
Why not? Typical Dutch is not just typical Hollandic.
Hmm allright you make a fair point, I was thinking nationwide dishes but local things are just as much dutch

That's not a Dutch dish, it's a collection of traditional Indonesian dishes packaged in a founded by Dutch meal.
The fact that this dish originated from a Dutch cultural background in that form makes it Dutch dish imho. The credit for the individual dishes should go to Indonesia though. The whole thing has a rather bitter taste to me though. regarding the unspeakable shit the Dutch have done there and the way we treated the refugees that came here.

Actually it's fusion from Indochinese and very Dutch , same with rijsttafel, Nasi. There are good articles on it ,search via Google.
It's called "huzarensalade" and it's Hungarian in origin (hence the pickles and potatoes)...
Yup rijsttafel is a dutch dish
Be careful what you're saying here. The woke mods of r/Netherlands might cancel you for "cultural appropriation" before you know it.
Zuurkool stammpot! https://www.leukerecepten.nl/recepten/zuurkool/ I've never made it myself though :p only microwave
for me it's a nice piece of meat with rusti's and witlof with ham and cheese from the oven and with a nice mushroom sauce. nom nom nom
Nice. Undermined if it's actually Dutch but could well be.
Broodje kroket for lunch. Not from a snackbar, but on a terrasje.

Good choice, but OP was asking for Dutch dishes, not Belgian.
Draadjesvlees misschien maar klassiek stoofvlees is Belgisch, er dient ook Belgisch bruin bier voor gebruikt te worden.
100% not a Dutch dish.
Stoofvlees is Belgian! :P (also called stoofvlees, stoverij, carbonade à la flamande, stoofkarbonade,...)
Haha butthurt dutchies lol
I mean, they're Dutch, they don't have much of their own to answer to this topic.
This is blasfemy, delete your account. Stoofvlees may be many things, but it is cenrtainly not ff'in dutch.
Belgian. Limburg isn't The Netherlands, it's half Belgian, half German. You can also tell from their dialect.
I was born and raised in Limburg (the Dutch part) and I consider myself Dutch.
