We eat it in Czechia as well, we call it Tatarák, usually you add some onion, raw egg yolk, soy sauce, washyoursister sauce and then eat it with garlic bread.

First time I’ve heard of washyoursister sauce and yet I knew exactly what you were talking about 😅.

u/Grumpy-Billa 4h ago

I believe it’s a concentrate of bathwater?

u/Hungry_Wendigo_ 4h ago

Exactly that

u/Dabox720 3h ago

That is an actual brand name for worcestershire sauce

u/frogminute 2h ago

You just described the recipe how my grandparents prepared Mett in Saxony.

Minus the washyoursister sauce though. Although my grandpa once joked about me and my cousin getting closer.

u/OneInternational3383 3h ago

Sicher das du aus Sachsen kommst und nicht dem Saarland?

1

u/BaronOfTheVoid 3h ago

Ach, ich glaube auch in Sachsen gibt es nur sehr wenige Familien, die nicht irgendwo einen Kreis im Stammbaum haben.

Is it berf or pork?

u/Hungry_Wendigo_ 4h ago

Beef, beef tenderloin is the best

u/Chillon420 3h ago

Beef is tartar, pork is mett

u/einredditname 1h ago

Then it's not the same, at all. Let alone with the egg yolk, soy sauce and sister sauce. Different animal and a ton more of extras on top.

1

u/bitch-ass-broski 4h ago

In Germany it's pork

2

u/StrictAd7754 3h ago

you can make it from any meat, i had it made from fish and also snails, it is very good

1

u/forwheniampresident 2h ago

Turkey Mett is also very good

u/helmli 3h ago

We have beef, too, it's called "Tatar" or "Steak Tartare". Quite different from Mett though.

u/paperboii-here 3h ago

There’s an episode where Mr bean orders steak tartare to save some cash. He didn’t receive a steak though

u/Biedrona_ 5h ago

And in Poland too. But we call it Tatar.

3

u/CoolCat1337One 4h ago

Tatar is a German thing too.
Tatar is beef, Mett is pork.

u/musicmonk1 4h ago

that's not pork

1

u/Jhud6669 3h ago

The thing described is closer to metka

u/Equivalent_Rope_8824 4h ago

In Belgium too. But no garlic bread and it's always beef, never pork.

Richtig Bock drauf!

u/Biblioklept73 4h ago

Aaand it’s delicious, especially on garlic rubbed topinky 😁

1

u/Pilum2211 4h ago

There's a big difference between raw pork hygiene and raw beef hygiene to my knowledge.

It's not really the same.

1

u/Undoreal 3h ago

But isn’t it made of beef?

1

u/sharkov2003 2h ago

What you are talking about is beef tartar, which is absolutely delicious in the Czech (and also Slovak) cuisine.

We Germans also eat pork „tartar“ (Mett) and it is also quite delicious. Has to be absolutely fresh though. Otherwise you’ll be sick. A colleague recently made his whole department stay at home for two days behause he brought Mett from a shady place.

u/Charizardd6 2h ago

Tatarák is beef.

1

u/Periador 1h ago

tatarak is a diffrent dish made out of diffrent meat

1

u/The_Sleazy1 1h ago

That sounds more like steak tartar at that point, which is beef. German mett is pork though.

1

u/Corgiso 1h ago

Well that's Tatar then, that's completely different and also eaten around the world . And it's mostly beef

1

u/srekar-trebor 42m ago

Beef ≠ Pork

1

u/Academic-Proof3700 39m ago

Isn't it beef? Thats the diff imho- beef is usually safe because of its structure. Pork? Ughhh I'd say you gotta double check it for parasites and bacteria.

But lets go down the rabbit hole - RAW CHICKEN- checked for salmonella by trustmebro experts. Edible or not? Ughhh and the structure! How it rips apart by your teeth. Savage!

u/h1ruki 2h ago

Wustersheer - is how to pronounce it properly - wuster works too if you’re in the UK.

Source: I’m from the UK.

Edit: I love your pronounciation of it though I will definitely be using it to troll other Brits in my day-to-day!

u/ElKaWeh 4h ago

Y'all are making this way too complicated.

2

u/Hungry_Wendigo_ 4h ago

Nah, you have to taste it to understand.

1

u/Loose-Story-962 2h ago

Not even a particularly long recipe

1

u/ElKaWeh 2h ago

It was just a friendly diss man. Obviously this sounds great. But compare it to minced meat, onion, salt & pepper, it’s a pretty damn long recipe.

u/Fernseherr 3h ago

This is different, it's also called Tatar in Germany and is from beef.
