MITITEI

Almost every country has a sausage or two. These skinless Romanian ones are among the easiest, essentially well-seasoned hamburgers that were undoubtedly created in a pinch and are known as "the little sausages without skin" and remain popular today. Note that these contain caraway seeds, one of the distinctive flavorings of Eastern Europe-the Italian variation uses fennel instead. Other cuts of meat you can use here: Ground beef, veal, or a combination.

Steps:

  • Place all the ingredients in a large bowl. Wet your hands and knead the mixture for about 5 minutes, rewetting your hands if the mixture begins to stick. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 and up to 24 hours.
  • When you're ready to cook, start a charcoal or gas grill or preheat the broiler; the fire should be medium-hot and the rack no more than 4 inches from the heat source. Meanwhile, shape the meat mixture into little sausages, about 3 inches long and 1 inch in diameter. Grill or broil the sausages, turning occasionally with a spatula or tongs, until nicely browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes.

1 1/2 pounds well-ground pork
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon water
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes or hot paprika
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
Salt and black pepper to taste

MITITEI (SMALL GROUND BEEF SAUSAGES)

Author Nicolae Klepper says that mititei were invented one evening at an inn called La Iordachi in Bucharest, known for its sausages, when the kitchen ran out of casings. Originally published in Saveur in 1998. Cooking time includes five hours chilling time.

  • Place the meat with all of the ingredients in a large bowl, including the garlic, and mix thoroughly. (If you have a stand mixer, this will work too. )
