Frikandel

By Macca

My god they sell Frikandel (or Frikadellen) in Lidl. I love that shop. Frikandel is the dirtiest Dutch sausage. Dirty.

I was interested to see this (from wikipedia):

“In the Netherlands, the frikandel mainly consists of a mixture of pork, beef, chicken and horse meat. Germans prefer the Dutch snack to be 100% chicken. Because of its vague recipe, there was a common belief among Dutch people that most of the frikandel was derived from any leftover meat, like brains or testicles. Kids (and to some degree, adults as well) occasionally tell each other horror stories about this.“

Still tastes amazing though.

    Although I was unaware of the potential horse content – testicals i don’t mind, better not to waste anything…especially when the results are this good.
