It took a lot for me to get out of bed today. And then you had to go and show me this.

There's a dish in Slavic cuisine called "kholodets", which is a filtered meat/bone stock that has been chilled to make a jelly with the meats inside. It's pretty good if you have been eating it since you were a kid, just got used to it you know. But this is some whole new level of creativity here, this cook is pushing the limits of trust.

Stop by Usinger's in Milwaukee and grab some head cheese. THAT'S pushing the limits of trust.

Delicious pork cheek? Yes. Disgusting pig brains? Also yes.

I'm intrigued, gonna order some online.

I just threw up in my mouth a little bit

Has anyone reading this ever tried one of these horrible jello creations? I see them posted all the time and I have a few old cookbooks that list recipes. But… they have to be absolutely vile right? Lol

My grandma used to make things like this when I was a kid. It tasted pretty much like you'd expect hot dogs in jello to taste like. Not necessarily bad, but definitely something that had no business being put together

[–] half_fiction@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What is the jello flavored like? Hot dog water?

[–] shotgun_ninja@midwest.social 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Usually it's unflavored gelatin, but technically you can add whatever fat-soluble flavor you want. Chicken, lemon, paprika, squirrel, whatever!

[–] mrbubblesort@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Squirrel sounds a bit nutty to me

[–] ThrowThrowThrewaway7@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Dear lord lol. The closest I’ve ever seen in person is one of these made with mandarin oranges and whip cream which wasn’t too bad… can’t imagine hot dogs though!

[–] atomicorange@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I’ve made chicken soup from bones that has an almost jello consistency when refrigerated. It’s delicious, but I never ate it cold!

[–] argentcorvid@midwest.social 3 points 1 year ago

If you can deal with the texture, they aren't terrible.

[–] saxysammyp@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Worst I’ve had was one made of hot dogs and spaghettios. My stomach turns just thinking about it.

It looks like someone emptied the garbage disposal into a casserole dish and froze it.

[–] Llewellyn@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

You nailed the receipt!

[–] beardsley@midwest.social 3 points 1 year ago

Technically this is an aspic, you heathen. ;-)

Welcome to germany.
Einmal das Bauernfrühstück bitte.

[–] SmellyNinja@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

This makes me physically upset.

[–] cloudy1999@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

So many flavors.. and textures

[–] Tigbitties@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I've seen this IRL but with peas, broccoli, chicken and gravy. I had the salad.
