Balkenbrij — Netherlands

Balkenbrij (also called 'karboet', 'tuet', or 'pannas') is a traditional Dutch food that shares some of the characteristics of American scrapple. Traditionally, its preparation and consumption were an important economizing custom, especially for the rural poor. Particularly, it allowed farmers to use various less-desirable parts of pork, which were made more palatable by being added to a seasoned porridge of groats or flour. The closely related 'Panhas', 'Pannas' or 'Möppkenbrot' are widely known in the whole northwest of Germany; the last variety is a speciality of middle Westphalia and Rhineland. --- Entry compiled automatically from [Wikidata](https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q572275) and Wikipedia.
