as it seems, in the ex GDR, they use to eat potatoes with skin
Ah, potatoes are a serious business in Germany.
*Hippkesmess* is probably my favourite.
Schälerchen reicht mir ganz aus
Is there going to be a test?
And all of them are designed terribly. You want the one with the spinny blade with slits. The pictured one wastes so much food.
we are all hamburger on this day
Never heard any of them in my while life
Brandenburg. I just say Messer xd
Sounds about right my mother was born in cologne and she calls it Klößchen
Berlin: never heard “Knief” in my life. Everyone I know just calls it “Kartoffelmesser”
I’ve only ever known it as “Kneipchen”. TIL most people call it something else…
Jesus NRW get it together
Meestje and kniefje sound more like Dutch words
We call it Knäipchen in Luxembourg, just like on the other side of the border. I hate using those things.
My mother always used them but I just peel off too much of the actual food.
How do you say ‘potato peeler’ in Frisian and Sorbian?
Those Dutch names up near the border are sus
Ok, so when visiting Germany, it’s probably better to ask for a potato peeler than a knife.
