Next do scrapple.
- panzagl 3y agoProbably best if we don't...
- jfengel 3y agoI think of scrapple as more Pennsylvania than Maryland, though it definitely bleeds over the border a bit. We get a lot of "Amish markets", even though they're usually Mennonite rather than Amish. They bring scrapple with them. Scrapple really is a local food, though it's not that different from other kinds of head cheese. The thing that makes it "scrapple" is the addition of cornmeal (maize), which helps it crisp up nicely when fried. Americans get weird about off-cuts and organ meats. But if we called it "terrine de porc à la semoule de maïs" and served it with microgreens they'd sell it for $28 as an appetizer.
