Sobre la cocina holandesa

La cocina holandesa surgió de un clima marítimo frío y húmedo y de una sospecha calvinista del exceso: comida sencilla, abundante y bien hecha. El núcleo histórico es la familia stamppot: patatas machacadas con verduras como col rizada (boerenkool), chucrut o escarola, servidas con salchicha ahumada y salsa de grajo, junto con erwtensoep, una sopa de guisantes partidos lo suficientemente espesa como para meter una cuchara, que se come después de patinar en invierno. El arenque es muy importante: Hollandse nieuwe, la primera pesca de la temporada ligeramente en salmuera, que se come cruda con cebolla, es un rito nacional cada mes de junio.

La Edad de Oro holandesa y la época colonial dejaron una segunda capa. El comercio de especias convertía la nuez moscada, la canela y el clavo en especias para hornear todos los días; de ahí las galletas speculaas y las ontbijtkoek. Los vínculos con Indonesia incorporaron la comida indoholandesa a la dieta nacional: nasi goreng, satay con salsa de maní y rijsttafel, un elaborado formato de mesa de arroz con muchos platos que en realidad fue una invención colonial holandesa. El roti y el broodje pom de Surinam son habituales en Ámsterdam y Rotterdam.

La alimentación diaria es famosa por su pragmatismo: pan con queso o hagelslag (chocolate granulado) para el desayuno y el almuerzo, y una comida cocinada por la noche. El queso es la gran exportación y el orgullo: el Gouda y el Edam envejecidos desde jóvenes (jong) hasta oud cristalinos, cortados en rodajas finas con el queso plano que los holandeses hicieron propio. La cultura callejera y de los snacks proporciona la alegría: stroopwafels calientes, poffertjes con mantequilla y azúcar en polvo, bitterballen crujientes con mostaza y patatas fritas con mayonesa.

pote de sello

Puré de patatas con col rizada, chucrut, escarola o hutspot de zanahoria y cebolla, coronado con grajo ahumado: la cena de invierno definitiva.

Artesanía de queso

Gouda y Edam envejecidos desde jong hasta oud quebradizo con notas de caramelo, y se comen a diario en finas rebanadas cepilladas sobre pan.

Arenque y el mar

Arenque holandés crudo con cebolla picada, además de kibbeling y anguila ahumada, anclan el lado marítimo de la mesa.

Herencia indonesia

La historia colonial hizo que el satay, el nasi goreng, el sambal y el rijsttafel fueran elementos permanentes de la comida en los hogares y restaurantes holandeses.

Especias y dulces para hornear

Las especulaas de sabor, el ontbijtkoek y el stroopwafel relleno de caramelo se comercializan con especias: nuez moscada, canela y clavo.

Cultura de bocadillos fritos

Bitterballen y kroketten con mostaza, patatas fritas con mayonesa y poffertjes definen la hora del borrel y la comida callejera.

Preguntas frecuentes sobre la cocina holandesa

¿Por qué es conocida la comida holandesa?▾

Primero el queso (gouda y edam), luego stroopwafels, arenque crudo con cebolla, stamppot con grajo, sopa de guisantes (erwtensoep), bitterballen, poffertjes y patatas fritas con mayonesa. Gracias a la historia colonial, los platos indonesios como el satay y el nasi goreng también son parte genuina de la gastronomía holandesa, al igual que el roti de Surinam en las grandes ciudades.

¿La comida holandesa es insípida?▾

El plato principal tradicional es suave y reconfortante (papas, queso, pan, salchichas ahumadas), pero la mesa holandesa completa es más picante que su reputación. La comida indonesio-holandesa lleva el sambal y el satay especiado a los hogares comunes, la cocina surinamesa agrega pimienta picante madame jeanette y los quesos añejos, el pescado ahumado, el arenque crudo y la mostaza tienen mucha intensidad por sí solos.

¿Cuál es la diferencia entre Gouda y Edam?▾

El gouda se elabora con leche entera, lo que le da un cuerpo más rico y cremoso que desarrolla notas de caramelo y caramelo con crujientes cristales de tirosina a medida que envejece. Edam utiliza leche parcialmente desnatada, por lo que es más firme, con menos grasa y más suave, tradicionalmente con forma de bolas enceradas de color rojo. Ambos llevan el nombre de las ciudades cuyos mercados los vendían, y ambos varían desde jóvenes hasta mayores (overjarig).

¿Qué plato holandés debería cocinar primero un principiante?▾

Stamppot boerenkool: hervir las patatas con col rizada picada, triturarlas con mantequilla, leche y un chorrito de vinagre o mostaza, y servir con una salchicha ahumada calentada en la sartén y un chorrito de salsa. Es un bote y treinta minutos. Erwtensoep (guisantes partidos cocidos a fuego lento con carne de cerdo, puerro, apio y grajo) es el segundo proyecto natural.

¿Qué es un rijsttafel?▾

Rijsttafel ("mesa de arroz") es un formato de la era colonial holandesa para servir comida indonesia: arroz rodeado por una docena o más de platos pequeños (rendang de res, satay, gado-gado, sambal goreng, pepinillos acar) que cubren el espectro de suave a picante. Fue elaborado por los holandeses en la Indonesia colonial en lugar de ser una tradición nativa, y hoy sobrevive principalmente en los restaurantes holandeses de Indonesia.
