Marie's Speck Perogun

[Eric E Stahl]

Marie was a World War 2 war refugee who came to live with my family when I was a baby. She had a son in a Russian concentration camp who died there and a son who came with her named Siggfried.

Another food that Marie made for us which I really liked was called speck perogun. I don't know the correct spelling.

Marie would fry ham and bacon and then chop it up into very small pieces.

She would mix the the ham and bacon bits in a chewy bread dough and bake it.

A man could make a meal on Marie's speck perogun!

The memory makes my mouth water.

Let me know if you try it and like it.

I will have to test that one out on the family Eric.....sounds tasty

An older friend of mine used to do a similar recipe....not sure what she called it though
She would use bacon, finely sliced caramelised onion and black olives mixed into the bread dough and top it with a layer of grated cheese half way through baking.
This was delicious especially with soup
