I went on a supply run to the neighborhood grocery store yesterday, I needed some missing items to make a jambalaya recipe I've been messing with trying to un-gummify the rice <-- that story for another thread.
On a lark I decided to go by the pork sausage section and lo there was the very Frick's Braunschweiger I was talking about earlier. I think it was $2.89 for a 1lb tube. So I grabbed it and went to the bread isle to see if there might be a pumpernickel loaf on sale, I remember eating the stuff on black rye in Deutschland...
I settled on a Brooklyn Rye, I figured that would be close enough in a flavor profile, so I tried it out this morning with a fresh but gnarly looking tomato from the garden.
First I conducted an animal food trial to make sure it was safe for human consumption, and I have this new puppy that hasn't figured out how to consistently pee and poop outside, so I figured if it killed him, no big deal:
It was puppy approved!
After I tried it I was a bit upset that I wasted it on the puppy. My memory may be suspect, but this stuff was delicious. As far as I can tell it tasted like the German stuff I had for breakfast fairly often. I do recall the German version I had being a bit darker and less pink.
I am recommending Frick's; damn good. Package says to consume within 5 days of opening, I don't think I will have a problem accomplishing that.
