Falscher Hase

On our recent visit to Fairfax, Tom made us a really delicious meat loaf. Inside it were hard-boiled eggs, giving each slice a very pretty cross-section. (I regret having taken no photos.) I am a meat-loaf lover -- I often order it in retro restaurants and diners -- so I really enjoyed it.<br /><br />Tom told us that his mother often made this dish, and that it's called "Falscher Hase," or "Fake Rabbit." However, he had no idea why it had this name -- and it's not an Easter-dish, just one that his mother made from time to time.<br /><br />Franz and Rosi, Tom's parents, subsequently sent this explanation of the dish:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj88BSSbzTuoAjrhbrKJ5q_BkJIeUfpgB9JIPTEl0b3LleZA84Kj_QLC-ZipF-Gs0zM6I_-blhFaVearij28hRoYDaThhZK9wl0dwfEpGFA8vekuRUA_TMXhqRa_VolFnjcD4aaCfEpPAWa/s1600/-1.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591315038688016594" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj88BSSbzTuoAjrhbrKJ5q_BkJIeUfpgB9JIPTEl0b3LleZA84Kj_QLC-ZipF-Gs0zM6I_-blhFaVearij28hRoYDaThhZK9wl0dwfEpGFA8vekuRUA_TMXhqRa_VolFnjcD4aaCfEpPAWa/s400/-1.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 282px; height: 400px;" /></a>Fortunately, our friend Peter made us this translation:<br /><blockquote>"Did you know? In days gone by, many a Sunday dinner had for its main course a so-called false hare. That's a meat loaf put in a form that shaped it like a rabbit which usually had an egg filling and had strips of bacon on top. Very tasty --but basically a hard times dish. Since only a very few families could afford an expensive rack of rabbit roast, along came an inventive lady of the house who came up with the idea to prepare reasonably priced ground beef, shaping it so that it looked like a fine rack of rabbit. And so it came about that the plain meat loaf became a dish that looked proper for the affluent folk."</blockquote>I write with gratitude to Tom for cooking us this great dish, Rosi for being its original author, Franz for the explanation, and Peter for the translation. Thanks, everyone!

The Royal Wedding

Somehow I started reading about Royal Wedding food themes. The <span style="font-style: italic;">L.A.

Their <a href="http://www.latimes.com/features/food/la-fo-royal-wedding-canapes-pictures,0,1350341.photogallery">recipes</a> are amazing -- flavors from many, many cultures. Probably better than the real thing.

E-yah, an insatiably hungry spirit, appears as a tiny head on enormous wooden bowls like the two in the photos we took. These bowls were filled to the brim with food and offered up at feasts held by "an elite group of spiritual leaders of the Yankton Sioux nation in South Dakota." Ability to eat enormous quantities of food indicated a sign of spiritual power, according to the documentation (which you can see by clicking on the image).<br /><br />I searched for more legends of this god and found a tale about a man on a journey who returned "looking like a specter. ... The poor fellow, delirious with hunger, fancied himself engaged in mortal combat with Eyah, the god of famine, who has a mouth extending from ear to ear. Wherever he goes there is famine, for he swallows all that he sees, even whole nations! The legend has it that Eyah fears nothing but the jingling of metal." From <a href="http://www.freefictionbooks.org/books/o/20466-old-indian-days-by-charles-alexander-eastman?start=30">Old Indian Days</a> by Charles Alexander Eastman.<br /><br />A god of gluttony or famine who presides over feasts and swallows whole nations? Fascinating. Obviously the product of a very different set of experiences than that of us modern feast-or-diet humans.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFxeTBSBwUpI20_upnAib1OlDyytWlhcazs9AH8S2bBz-h9E5MnS1VdOSCfzJjpyKCjmS5QauYJhgsLe2x6LrUonuf3iyrfntkdZaFAIeeyRK-aPM6OoXBTj87Ya8snoc7_ktvUBfx391M/s1600/e-yah1.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588904682222403938" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFxeTBSBwUpI20_upnAib1OlDyytWlhcazs9AH8S2bBz-h9E5MnS1VdOSCfzJjpyKCjmS5QauYJhgsLe2x6LrUonuf3iyrfntkdZaFAIeeyRK-aPM6OoXBTj87Ya8snoc7_ktvUBfx391M/s400/e-yah1.jpg" style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 263px;" /></a>

Then back for the famous portraits of George Washington, Lincoln, many other presidents, Chuck Close's portrait of Bill Clinton, portraits of famous civil rights leaders, and many more.
