We’ve had a good day again. We got to know some Dutch eating habits. We started the day with cooking and ended it with baking. With the help of the dutch students we cooked a typical Dutch dish, called Erwtensoep. It is not difficult to make but it takes a long time. It is somewhere between a soup and a „főzelék” (a typical Hungarian vegetable dish).
We were divided into small groups so in the eng we had a lot of Erwtensoep.
In the meanwhile we learnt that they hardly use any oil and we also got acquainted with a few girls. Before lunch was ready we played a game together. Our first task was to choose from a lot of words the ones that are characteristic of Hungary and of Holland. It wasn’t difficult, however we thought cold belonged to Holland. Then we tried a Dutch game and we laughed a lot. We even had a competition and I got the second place.
Then we had lunch. I must admit it exceeded my expectations because at Sinterklass we tried this soup and I didn’t like it that much, but this time it was delicious. After lunch we had a competition again. Later we made papernoten with the help of the Dutch students. We had some difficulties but the result was delicious.
While one half of the group was preparing the paprenoten, the other half was preparing Dutch specialities: different kinds of cheese, herring and sauces. It was good that we could talk to Dutch students during making all these things.
