Recipe Introduction


The name of this Pennsylvania Dutch dish comes from the
chopped "scraps" of cooked pork that are mixed with ground cornmeal, broth and seasonings. The squares of scrapple are fried and traditionally served hot for breakfast or brunch.



List of Ingredients




1 # boneless cooked pork loin, chopped
1 C cornmeal
1 14-1/2 oz can chicken broth
1/4 t  dried thyme
1/4 t  salt
1/2 C all-purpose flour
1/4 t  pepper
2 T vegetable oil, or as needed



Recipe



In a large saucepan combine pork, cornmeal, chicken broth, thyme and salt. Bring to a boil, stirring often. Reduce heat and simmer about 2 minutes or until mixture is very thick, stirring constantly.
Line an 8x8x2-inch baking pan or a 9x5x3-inch loaf pan with waxed paper, letting paper extend 3-4 inches above top of pan. Spoon pork mixture into pan. Cover and chill in the refrigerator 4 hours or overnight.
Unmold; cut scrapple into squares. Combine flour and pepper; dust squares with flour mixture. In large skillet brown scrapple on both sides in a small amount of hot oil. Serves 12.
