Thread: Sunday breakfast again.

I come to you all once again, hat in hand to ask for ideas. I am thinking of making my own scrapple but am not sure what to serve it with.

Any and all ideas will be considered and scrapple recipes will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

I used to be quite good at scrapple. The secret is to know big words, and take advantage of triple word score squares at every opportunity

(Sorry Mark, I have no idea what scrapple is.... scrambled apples?)

Here you go James:

Scrapple - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oh, well then perhaps something appley to go with it would not be too weird after all!

Actually, I will leave this one to the experts.

How about a frittata? I usually make mine with potato, onion(green?), mushrooms and cheese. Use plenty of eggs to jumble the bunch in.

I'm gonna try huevos rancheros soon.

We usually just call those "egg lumps"

Now you have a fancy name to use too.

James,

You mean Scrabble, not scrapple.

Scrapple, from what I understand, is a Pennsylvania breakfast delicacy. A bit like sausage, it is made from chopped or ground pork and cornmeal mush, cooked and shaped in a loaf pan, cooled, then sliced and browned in butter to serve. According to the internet blogs, it is a true American specialty of the Pennsylvania Dutch (who called it ponhaws or pawnhaus). It was originally made from ‘scraps' of pork.

BTW...I prefer sausage.

JMS,

At any rate, here is a link to a recipe for a "modern" version of scrapple:

And here is a link to the more traditional recipe:

Old-Fashioned Scrapple Recipe

Serve with eggs and enjoy...

BTW...Have you considered something simple, like shrimp and cheese grits? It's a real Southern delicacy and in imho tastes a lot better than scrapple.

Well, I've got the biga ( a yeast sponge using more flour than the typical poolish or American style sponge) going for the morning bread. I will poke around in the markets later tonight after I get more suggestions

Hey guys, I know its short notice but any suggestions will help
