Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 Effie, I would like to know what it is too. My mom came from Germany. Her family immigrated when she was 6 months old. I haven't heard of this tradition, but would love to know more about it. Linda Red Barn Enterprises New Candles!!!!!!

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 Here is the basic recipe. You may want to add a little more of this or that to suit your taste. They are a very heavy pancake. 3 1/2 cups warm water 2 eggs beaten 2 cups white flour 2 cups rye graham pumpernickel flour (can get by using just rye graham) 3 1/2 tsp. anise seed 2 T blue label karo syrup 2 T sugar 2 T oil 2 tsp. salt black label bacon hard salami (not the packaged--usually a meat counter carries the hard) Combine all ingredients. Use pancake grill or frying pan at 400 degrees. (We use a soup ladle and make same size as a pancake.) Cut bacon in thirds, and salami in half. Put one piece of each on top of pancake right after pouring on grill. Cook as you would a pancake, flip, and there you have it. Add water if dough gets to thick. Hope you enjoy them as much as we do.
