Anyone wanting to measure out a small sweet portion
You want to decide for yourself how much anise topping to use at a separate mealtime. Albert Heijn lists a 6 g serving for De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes 270 g.
Who is this topping for?
Anyone organising a stamppot evening
You want to decide in advance whether the sweet anise topping works at a separate bread or dessert course, rather than automatically mixing it into the savoury stamppot.
Anyone who needs to avoid wheat or gluten
Check the label before buying. Jumbo lists wheat starch among the ingredients of De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes; the product information also lists wheat and gluten-containing cereals as allergens.

Common mistakes when choosing and serving
-
Assuming a stated serving size means a mini pack
Albert Heijn lists a 6 g serving and 45 servings per pack for Gestampte Muisjes 270 g. This describes the amount per serving, not how the product is packaged.
If you need individual portions to hand out or take with you, check the pack format carefully. Otherwise, you can weigh out the amount yourself at home.
-
Treating a sweet topping like a savoury stamppot seasoning
Gestampte Muisjes is a sweet anise topping. Suggested uses such as bread, crispbread and yoghurt are quite different from using it in a savoury main course.
If you still want to combine the flavour with stamppot, try a small amount on a separate portion first, rather than mixing it into the whole pan.
-
Skipping the ingredients because of the product name
Jumbo lists wheat starch in De Ruijter Gestampte Muisjes. This matters if you need to avoid wheat or gluten.
Check the allergen information on the current pack before use.
-
Assuming a small serving means little sugar
A serving size alone tells you nothing about the nutritional value. Jumbo lists sugar as the first ingredient in Gestampte Muisjes.
Read the nutritional information per 100 g and per serving, and compare it with the amount you actually plan to use.
