Hackepeter (Germany)


Called hackepeter or mett, this unusual German specialty consists of raw ground pork that should be eaten as is. Raw meat is typically flavored with salt and pepper, but can be enhanced with crushed cumin, marjoram, nutmeg, garlic or onion for added flavor.

When raw onions are added to the basic mett, the resulting mixture is called zwiebelmett, while the addition of onions and marjoram is called thüringer mett. In Germany, seasoned raw ground pork is typically sprinkled on bread rolls (mettbrötchen) or slices of bread, and raw onion rings are often sprinkled on top.

  Tian bu la are Taiwanese fish cakes made with soft white fish fillets, eggs, and a thick dough containing either potato or tapioca flour.

Although they can be eaten immediately after frying, Taiwanese traditionally boil them over low heat in a soy sauce-based broth, which softens the crunchy crust and infuses the cake with all the tangy broth flavors. Fried and boiled versions are often served in traditional Taiwanese restaurants alongside other deep-fried treats such as fish cakes or tofu. It is served in bowls and covered in a sticky brown sauce made from chili paste, soy sauce, miso soup, and sugar.
