My thoughts:
Growing up, my Grandpop lived inwards a basement story inwards our house. He had his ain kitchen as well as made his ain meals, exclusively coming upstairs for holidays! He made a lot of nutrient I immature adult woman quite a fleck including his odd version of fried chicken (one twenty-four hours I volition recreate it but it makes me lamentable to mean value nearly eating it without him), ever changing beef stew, ground beef gravy, home fries as well as what he called meat cakes. I've talked earlier nearly Baltimore's German linguistic communication heritage as well as then I shouldn't bring been surprised when, afterward making meat cakes a piece dorsum inwards a jibe of nostalgia, I googled meat cakes to run into if they were a Baltimore thing or simply a Grandpop thing as well as constitute that they were in, fact, a German linguistic communication thing. Grandpop e'er made them amongst guide soil beef but I had approximately "meatloaf" mix on mitt (ground beef, pork as well as veal packet together) when I recreated them as well as then I used that as well as liked it quite a bit. After doing approximately sleuthing into frikadellen, which apparently, are what I've been calling meat cakes all along, I constitute they are oft made amongst a mixture of meats, often, the beef, veal as well as pork mixture I unknowingly used. Perhaps frikadellen are inwards my blood. I had e'er idea of them every bit a thrifty selection amongst their utilisation of staff of life to stretch out the meat, a perfect selection for immigrants as well as railroad workers inwards Pigtown hither inwards Baltimore, but if they bring German linguistic communication roots maybe that was exclusively role of it, perchance they were to a greater extent than of a precursor to the hamburger. Who knows? At whatever rate, meat cakes are tasty as well as uncomplicated as well as when I'm feeling nostalgic I add together them to the menu, no thing what they are called.
