Hello,

Enjoying the local food of your expat country is great, but learning to cook the dishes yourself is even better. Please share what it's like cooking like a local in the Netherlands.

What are some of the most popular local dishes that are easy to prepare?

What are the most common ingredients used in dishes in the Netherlands? Where can you purchase them?

Is there a specific technique or a secret ingredient to master the local cuisine?

Are there resources available to teach you to cook like a local (classes, websites, etc.)?

What are the advantages of learning to prepare local dishes in the Netherlands?

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Priscilla

When I am hungry would like to make these dishes by myself such as Kroket, Patat, Bitterballen, Stamppot and Pannenkoeken. I am foodie and love to make and eat these delicious foods.
