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

Oh, It doesn’t look appetizing, that’s for sure., but good, McDonald's nuggets aren't much better as a preparation and we eat millions of them every day !
It’s really good and I’m Breton ! You know what they put in black or white pudding and in liver pâté ???? Non ??? So don't be disgusted, you're missing something. !
Pity, the spelling…It stings the eyes!
You know Jacques, the spelling in France is of the same composition as the waste prepared for fricadelle or other crap of the same kind. I think the fault should not be placed on the students., they only reproduce what the EN has formatted for them… with the blessing of statesmen so that our blond heads know as little as possible in order to better control them. The system is not new… We are therefore going to see the reappearance of public writers and for the dime, will write our official letters, our relational missives and our declaration of love notes. We… Read more "
“You wouldn't put dimethylpolysiloxane, a silicone defoamer, in your chicken dishes? How about tertiary butylhydroquinone (BHQT), a chemical preservative so deadly that even five grams could kill you? These are just two of the ingredients in a McDonald's Chicken McNugget. Only 50 percent of a McCroquettes is actually real chicken. The other half includes corn derivatives, sugars, fully synthetic puffing agents and ingredients. There is no doubt that processed food such as in McDonald’s is not part of a healthy diet., and I’m grateful that I don’t… Read more "
Especially that you don't have to be out of Centrale Sup to make nuggets at home : Chicken breast cut into pieces dipped in beaten egg and then in breadcrumbs, and fried in a pan (in olive oil) !
You really have to have a great hair in your hand not to make them yourself !
Frankly it's shameful to make us eat all its reconstituted and flavored waste, taste enhancers , I tasted it and I almost threw up it was so disgusting . now that I know the composition it's not even worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
Haha, there is nothing unhealthy in what is shown.. the stories of “hide things” Okay, but it would be valid for absolutely everything. What there is to know is that : -The product is not dangerous (i can testify) -He has good taste. (I can still testify but it will be much more relative) In this video if the term “waste” shocked you, it is however obvious that they speak of all the meat which is not sold because not “presentable” (= what remains when we have cut a beautiful fillet for example) .. The other ingredients mentioned… Read more "
Well hello my big. So I'm off because this pure northern product is extremely tasty and appreciated by us. Its finesse is sought after by the gourmets that we are. A great chef cooks them in a star restaurant. The secret can be revealed now because it is now known by many gourmets. So l’ rotten egg of several months is the mysterious ingredient. It does not falsify without worrying because it does not harm health. My wife tells me that in a variant’ the bones crushed in the blender can pleasantly flavor this dish. This is… Read more "
