This shall be the original recipe from Mama Leone, which is also present in the cartoon Lady and the Tramp alleged. Some adjustments I have made anyway: The sour cream is hard to get here, I’ve replaced it with creme frâiche. The eternally long cooking with the cream was too risky for me, I have therefore only added the cream at the end. Also, the boiling down of the wine (like the meat broth) I have replaced with a much smaller...

It's basically just a type of spaghetti with tomato sauce. But in the US, they don't just make spaghetti Napoli; no, with the addition of dried oregano, it becomes a marinara. Instead of black pepper, chilies give the sauce a mild kick. Ingredients:
5 garlic cloves, chopped
2 tbsp olive oil
25 g finely diced onions
400 g peeled canned tomatoes
salt
2 jalapenos, sliced into rings
a pinch of sugar (optional)
100 ml white wine
1/2...

Are Hamburger from Hamburg? Probably Frikadellen are from Germany. And probably in earlier times the baker and the not the butcher wins (=more bread than meat). That might have been the main food of German emigrants to America. Lots of bread mass and rather less minced meat. This of course has nothing to do with hamburgers, which are usually made of pure ground beef. However, so could have come Hamburg to America.
Let’s talk about...

Steak bites have one advantage over whole-cooked steaks, and that's their larger surface area. Seared very briefly and very hot on all sides, they stay pink inside and are nicely seared all over. I then kept them warm in the oven at 50°C/122°F while I made the gravy.
I stuck to a classic gravy without any strong aromatic spices so as not to overpower the beef flavor. I added just 1 teaspoon of dried tarragon to enhance the mild...

Spareribs are a wonderful nibble, which unfortunately too often even ends up in Germany in the sauerkraut or even in the waste. In this case it’s actually a real treat when they are marinated, grilled and coated with a smoky BBQ sauce.
Thus, they get really soft and almost falling off the bone, there are two methods: Boil it before and grill it very briefly or BBQ indirectly for several hours at low heat. That was my way.
Normally,...

Piccata are flat slices of meat, in Italy mostly made from veal, which are fried in flour and then cooked in a sauce made from wine and lemon juice.
This dish found its way to the USA with Italian emigrants, where it was modified as needed. The most well-known piccata there is now chicken piccata.
The piccata milanese also found its way back to its old homeland of Italy via the USA. This is now veal cutlets with a coating of egg and...

Hot dogs are, even if you make them at home, really fast food. You roast a bun, warm a sausage, grab it together and decorate with mayonnaise and mustard. Ketchup probably came later as a third sauce.
Hot dog was invented in 1847 in Frankfurt am Main and served from the Hanoverian migrant Charles Feltman 1867 in Coney Iceland for the first time in its present form.
The hot dog is now spread around the world, especially the...

My chili beans are somewhat similar to the baked beans. Baked beans, in their simplest form, are white beans in tomato sauce. On the other hand, if you take a look at the recipe for Boston Baked Beans with cured pork, savory and maple syrup, that's a different story. My chili beans are meant to serve as an accompaniment to a steak or chop, so the meat has been reduced to some bacon.
What of course ends up in abundance in the recipe...

A real men's meal (also suitable for butcher's shop assistants 😎) is the beef hammer. The piece is cut from the boned shank, i.e. the place where the leg slices come from. Only a ring of meat weighing around 1 kg/2 lb is left, the rest is separated and is still ideal for e.g. goulash.
Of course, you can't throw something like that on the grill like a steak. In the US, such chunks are placed in the smoker at a low temperature for...

For the first time I have met this salad at KFC. The sweet and salty taste surprised me. Since then, I was looking for the recipe for this salad. In an early issue of the ‚Hidden recipes‘, as the recipes were still freely available, I finally found it. Since then I modified the recipe several times and omitted some unnecessary ingredients like the sweet cream, sour cream and mayonnaise are enough for the dressing.
Usually the...
