Scrapple.....

[Behshad]

All you ever wanted to know about Scraple (but were too affraid to ask )




Scrapple (Pennsylvania Dutch) is traditionally a mush of pork scraps and trimmings combined with cornmeal and flour, often buckwheat flour and spices. It is similar to pon haus, which uses only the broth from cooked meat. The mush is formed into a semi-solid congealed loaf, and slices of the scrapple are then panfried before serving. Scraps of meat left over from butchering, not used or sold elsewhere, were made into scrapple to avoid waste. Scrapple is best known as a regional American food of the Mid-Atlantic States (Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland). Scrapple and Pon haus are commonly considered an ethnic food of the Pennsylvania Dutch, including the Mennonite and Amish. Scrapple is found in supermarkets throughout the region in both fresh and frozen refrigerated cases, and it can sometimes be found in frozen form in cities as far away as Los Angeles.

Sounds like SPAM...yuk!!

LOL! Was just about to post the same thing. Sounds like spam, but in the pic it almost looks like multigrain toast.

It's actually not like spam at all. You cook it until it's crunchy on the outside. It sort of flakes apart on the inside unlike spam. Closer to sausage in taste but the texture is totally different.

I guess with the cornmeal and flour (with the pork parts ), probably not far off when I posted "toast." More of a bread consistancy?

bread with a little bit spicy ground pork would be pretty accurate.

Scrapple sounds and looks infinitely better than head cheese. That stuff's nasty but not nearly as gross as blood sausage.

When I was growing up, my mom and grandparents would eat czarnina a polish soup made with duck's blood, vinegar and prunes, raisins. & apples. Us kids wouldn't eat it. Once, my mom fed the leftovers to the dog and he broke out in hives!
