Share your regional recipes!

[Camaero]

Hey folks,

I love trying regional foods whenever I travel to a new place. Subsim has people from all over the world hanging around, and I thought it might be cool if we shared some of our own recipes.

I don't want Food Network's recipes for Texas brisket or Louisiana jambalaya, I want it straight from one of you Texans and Louisianans.

No matter where you are from, show us how to make something your country/region is known for!

P.S. I am secretly hoping Neal will be able to tell us how to make the world's best brisket.

Region: my backyard

Recipe for juicy lean burger: 1 lb 93% lean ground beef. Add just enough milk to a 1/4 cup of panko bread and clove of minced garlic, mix it all well into a mash. Add bread, milk, garlic mixture to ground beef and mix those components together thoroughly, salt pepper to taste maybe a cap full of Stubbs liquid smoke.

form into 1/2 inch thick paddies making a small crater in the center of the paddy to keep it from puffing up as it cooks. set up for direct grilling get it sizzling hot and throw the burgers on, cook 5-7 minutes per side. DO NOT mash the burger down you will squeeze all the moisture out.

Personaly I prefer to top it off with just blue cheese. I also like sandwiching it in an english muffin I think they tend to hold up better than regular buns.

Mmmm good burger.

Local you said. Here's some from my birth area South Jutland

A dish that can be eaten every day.

This dish is called Sønderjydske meatballs or dialect Synnejyske
500 gr beef of top quality
500 gr pork of top quality
50 g onion (finely chopped)
1-2 dl breadcrumbs
2 eggs
about 1 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper (black or white, it does not matter)

"When you shape your meatballs (hamburger) meat must be feeling as soft hamburger. If minced meat is too dry add a little water. Is it too soft (hard to shape the meat, add the bread crumbs)"


Mix everything well together in a bowl and let rest for about 1 hour in refrigerator. Take the minced meat out from the refrigerator. Form about 10-11 (about 120 gr each) as big fat hamburger. Fry 6-7 minutes on each side.

Can be eaten as they are, together with either cucumber salad
or warm red cabbage

When we got this dish, it was with potatoes, brown sauce and red cabbage

The dish is one of the Danish national dish and its ingredients change from area to area.

Enjoy.

Brown beef, evaporate liquid. Brown garlic, add a bit of water. Add tomatoes, spices. Add water to cover, simmer 1 hour.

Optional: 1 can pinto beans.
Not optional: Argue whether or not real chili contains beans.
Also optional: Serve with shredded cheddar. And rice. Or cornbread. Or tortillas. Or any combination.

That's the recipe as I received it. I usually add a bit more tomato, an onion with the garlic, and replace at least some of the water with beer. (I use Shiner Bock.)
