These Belgian cookies have been in the family forever. They last forever and mellow like fine wine. You must have a special waffle iron (called a krumkake iron) to bake them over a gas burner. It has two hinged plates and usually has a pretty pattern that is pressed into the cookies as they bake one by one. Have plenty of people to help with the cooking.

German Hamburgers (Frikadellen)

German Hamburgers (Frikadellen)

Frikadellen, the original hamburger, are served like a flattened meatball with string beans and salad. I also like to use this recipe to make Swedish meatballs (but omit the paprika). My aunt in Hamburg, Germany, taught me this recipe, and I've been making it ever since. Serve with steamed string beans and tossed salad. Or serve on a kaiser roll with lettuce, tomato, pickled cucumbers, finely sliced deep-fried onions, and curry ketchup.
