In 2026, Dutch chefs competed in Groningen for top honors in snert and stamppot, with Arthur Vos and Robin van Laan winning their respective categories.
The 2026 World Snert and Stamppot Championships in Groningen, Netherlands, drew chefs from across the country to compete in preparing traditional winter dishes—split-pea soup (snert) and mashed potato with vegetables (stamppot).
Now run by the Old Dutch Dishes Foundation since 1995, the event has evolved from a local contest into a major cultural celebration featuring on-site cooking, judging based on taste, texture, and originality, and even commemorative postage stamps.
Arthur Vos won the snert category, while Robin van Laan, last year’s stamppot champion, returned aiming to repeat his success with a secret ingredient.
The contest highlights the enduring significance of hearty, home-style Dutch cuisine in winter traditions.
