Dutch cuisine is practical, hearty and surprisingly tasty. Historically based on the products that the land and the sea could offer, it is a gastronomy without great pretensions but with comforting dishes and delicacies that have become national icons. From its famous cheeses to raw fish and fried sweets, Dutch food invites you to discover.
A truly Dutch culinary experience. Raw herring is lightly cured in salt and served with chopped onion and pickles. The traditional way to eat it is by holding it by the tail, lifting it over your head and taking a bite.
The national dish par excellence, especially in winter. It is mashed potatoes mixed with one or more vegetables, such as kale (boerenkool), endive or sauerkraut (zuurkool). It is traditionally served with a smoked sausage (rookworst).
The most popular appetizer ('borrelhapje'). They are crispy, fried balls, filled with a creamy meat ragout. They are served hot with mustard and are the perfect accompaniment to a beer.
A very thick and hearty split pea soup, so thick that it is said that the spoon must be able to stand in it. It is made with celery, leek and pieces of smoked sausage, and is a complete dish in itself.
French fries are a national obsession. They are thicker than French ones and are served in a paper cone. The most popular way to eat them is with mayonnaise, but the 'patatje oorlog' (warring potatoes) option with peanut sauce, mayonnaise and raw onion is a classic.
Similar to bitterballen but with a cylindrical shape. It is a fried croquette, crispy on the outside and with a creamy filling of beef or beef ragout. It is often eaten as a snack ('broodje kroket') on a soft roll with mustard.
The precursor of English gin, it is the national liquor of the Netherlands. It is distilled from malt alcohol and flavored with juniper berries ('jeneverbes'). There are two main types: 'jonge' (young) and 'oude' (old), with different flavor profiles.

Beer is the most popular alcoholic beverage. In addition to big, world-famous lager brands such as Heineken, Amstel or Grolsch, there is a thriving craft brewery ('brouwerij') scene, especially those producing Belgian-style abbey beers.
A very popular hot drink in cafes. It is simply a glass of hot water with a large bunch of fresh mint leaves, often served with a slice of lemon and honey. It is refreshing and comforting.
A traditional drink for cold winter nights. It is hot milk flavored with star anise or anise pills. It is said to help you fall asleep.
The most famous Dutch cookie. It consists of two thin waffle cookies joined by a caramel syrup ('stroop'). The correct way to eat it is to place it over a cup of hot coffee or tea so that the steam softens the caramel.
Some fluffy mini pancakes, made in a special pan with indentations. They are served hot with a piece of butter and a generous amount of icing sugar. They are a very popular sweet in markets and fairs.
Dutch apple pie is robust and deep, with a thick pastry covering not only the base but also the sides and often the lattice-like top. The filling is apple pieces with cinnamon and raisins.
Literally 'oil balls', they are fried fritters that are traditionally eaten on New Year's Eve. They are balls of yeast dough, often with raisins or apple pieces, that are fried and sprinkled with icing sugar.
