The fricadelle (or fricandelle) is a sausage known to all in the North of the France, the Belgium and the Netherlands. Traditionally cooked in oil, this sausage from 18 cm is found in all chip shops or chip stalls.
The question of what is made a common response fricadelle is “everyone knows what there is inside but no one says”. Sellers often refuse to reveal the composition, which is “top secret”.
We therefore conducted a small survey to find out how are made and what are composed the famous burgers.
The manufacturing process
Mark Becker is part of leaders in manufacture of cakes to the Netherlands and boasts of being the origin of his invention there is almost 60 years now. Bernard Goethals, Director of the Group, says that “When it's going poorly economically, It will good for the fricandelle”.
Most of the cakes were once made by the butchers, now everything is industrialized.
With the opening of the doors of the factory we have our first response elements :
This is the raw…
The meat is kneaded…
Mix with spices…
The material is ready…
The cakes are cooled…
…and then frozen…
…and finally conditioned
The composition
As for any sausage or ground beef we well doubt that it is not the most beautiful pieces of meat that are used. Are used, without surprise, the remains and the carcasses of animals at the slaughterhouse waste. It is mainly the remains of meat and chicken skin but also pork and sometimes horse (2-5% about). The proportion is two-thirds of chicken for one third of pork to which are added bread crumbs, dehydrated onions and a mixture of spices (among others : nutmeg, pepper and chilli) to give this unique to the fricadelle taste.
Ingredients :
Chicken waste (40%), waste of pork (25%), breadcrumbs (wheat flour, water, yeast, Salt), pork fat, onions, waste of horse (2%), Salt, spices, dextrose, aroma (may contain mustard), flavour enhancer (E621), emulsifier (E450, E452), maltodextrin, antioxidant (E300, E330), vegetable oil and fat, Egg, milk derivatives, corn starch.
By referring to our article on food additives, certain additives present in fried potatoes are not recommended for health :
You should know that there is also no pork patties.
Here are two small patties in Belgium plants reporting

He ben , now i know why i never touched it !!
Thank you for opening our eyes to all the truths that are hidden from us !!
you took the words out of my mouth , the appearance has always repelled me, I have never tasted it but after that I am very happy !!!!
It's true ,it is not too pretty as components in the fricadelle ,but let's not forget what we are being fed either(to breathe) without our knowledge the radio activity (which stops at the borders among others) aircraft pollution ,it's nothing (they don't go through technical control)they are, so to speak, non-polluting ,but we with the cars we pay “we are the most polluting payers” there we are not missing. So Mr François ,” what to eat!! spinach !large leaf vegetables ,which harvests general pollution en masse ,and many others . Il… Read more "
You think that planes do not pass technical inspection ? it costs x more expensive than a car in terms of taxes !
I wonder if the other sausages are also made with slaughterhouse leftovers? chippo, toulouse etc …
and well know some pretty stuff XD , no one ever told me what was in this thing but it must be said that a lot of things are being hidden from us (the government) etc … but we, the population, have nothing to say XD well I think I'm not going to eat it anymore 😉 …
Wow , my my my my . It all looks appetizing (yuck) . I now understand why I don't eat it ^^. But do not be reassured , it has to be rubbish juice , therefore still edible . But as it was filmed they don't tell the whole story . I bet they even put scrotum, pork b ***, etc.. For sausage lovers of all kinds , you will enjoy yourself ^^.
hahahaha your too stupid my ass you are going to enjoy yourself allor I believe mouahahaha but know the truth he does not say everything but I think he is right he can say that certain thing too nn he risks bankruptcy
You make them disgusted, but in reality there is nothing bad about it. Of course we don't take the ham to make them, we take the lower pieces, but it's not bad for your health. In any case, sausages have always been made with low cuts and there too flour is often added.. Some sausages or pâtés are made by grinding whole animal carcasses. There are even low quality pâtés that are made with ground pork bones. + flour. It's not the best to the point of… Read more "
yes but it's so good !!!
its very true too good
You make me laugh by saying “I understand why I don't eat it” etc… no but frankly in this case you won't eat anything anymore… –‘
You say fricadelle but many other products are not “better”
for example a meat no matter what it is, you did not know the living conditions in which she “beast” lived, and in which she was shot (Go watch some video 😉 )
Anyway, for my part I eat it ( and it's very good ) and I'm not dead yet
Anyway, I'm going to stop there…
is there still horse ??? and dsl but I will never touch these horrors again
Eat nothing more in this case… McDonald's is maggots and pork fat in ice cream. White pudding is butcher's waste. All the chic products are made with pork fat. Chewing gum is made from tree sap. Poisons travel in our “waste” yes we are also in a vicious circle you take the pill then go to the toilet and end up in the ocean which ends up being swallowed by the poisons which make us eat our hormones again!!! Certain pill brings cancer!! The chipolata has already been reshaped by… Read more "
Well anyway, do you really know what you are consuming? ?
I agree with you, only the Ch’ti know what’s in a fricadelle, & the secret element was not said !
I'm a bitch, & all the Ch’tis know the secret ingredient . I can tell you that in this article, there is no secret ingredient that all good people know 😉 . It's the secret of the North, the Fricadelle, so only the northerners know it . I am also very happy that the ingredient was not revealed . ” Piou piou piou ! “
well answered !! I agree
it's just an onion-nutmeg-chili-onion mixture
nothing very secret
since my childhood, my mother cooked fricadelle. However it was not in the shape of a sausage ! sliced with a “veil”. I admit that this dish was delicious. Difficult to find in butchers… damage, I like it.
Bon appétit !

And do you believe that the merguez, chippo and other sausages are made from pure fillet?
And the pâtés for your sandwiches? Minced meat for Bolognese?
These industrial sites, they are checked for hygiene and their products are also inspected….so if you are influenced now with this article, you have to be careful what you are going to eat elsewhere soon, pizza, sandwicheries….
It's true , I am Dutch …. I have 60 years and I'm still alive !!
I agree with you !
The next secret remains to be discovered…
Yuck
