How Do You Make A Scrapple Sandwich?
The scrapple sandwich is a quintessential breakfast food of rural, mid-Atlantic communities. Scrapple is a breakfast meat sold in 1 lbs. or 2 lbs. blocks. RAPA and Hughes are excellent brands of scrapple and come in spicy, bacon, and original. • To begin cooking, HEAT a cast iron frying pan to medium heat and LAY on your strips of bacon. • Take a fist of flour and SPRINKLE it on a paper plate. ADD salt and pepper to the flour as well as a pinch of chili powder. STIR this mixture and set it aside. • REMOVE the scrapple from the packaging. PLACE your block of scrapple on a cutting board and CUT it lengthwise into ½” slices. For one person, 2 or 3 slices should suffice. The remainder of the block can be stored in saran-wrap in the refrigerator until the next time. • PLACE the slices into the flour mixture you made in Step 2 and lightly COAT both sides. Make sure there are no clumps of flour clinging to the scrapple: these will burn when the scrapple is fried. Set the floured slices aside.
