Subject: chia seed meatballs
Hi: I hope you can help. My boyfriend has become interested in eating things
utilizing chia seeds. He is wanting me to make chia seed meatballs baked if
possible. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance. This is new to me too.
regards, Liz
Hello Liz,
These sites have recipes:

Food Storage Cookbook
I found this comment on a message board:
“Me, I use a couple tbsp of ground flaxseed or ground chia seed,
blended with about a third cup of water, to help retain moisture
in my meatball recipes. Works great as that bread crumb sub, and
the rest if the recipe is the same (except I never floured the
outside of my meatballs). Also, minimal handling and pressing of
the meat as well. I blend all my other ingredients together then
toss gently with the ground meats (I use beef and pork half and
half, sometimes some italian sausage).”

My family comes from Yugoslavia and Germany, my grandmother used
to make something called "pooty keep full', of course the spelling
is probably way off but that's how she pronounced it.
Thanks,
Mike
Hello Mike,
Well, since you didn’t respond to my request for more information,
there’s not much way for me to pursue this. I’m speculating that the
“keep full” part is actually “kipfel”, but I have no idea what the
“pooty” part is.
“Kipfels” are Austrian, German, Hungarian, or Jewish rolls or cookies.
I did not find a Yugoslavian connection. The same name is used to refer
to both a type of roll in a crescent shape, and to a crescent-shaped cookie.
These appear to also be called “butterhorns”. “Rugelachs” may be similar
or just another name for them. I have several recipes on the site already:
05/13/11
01/20/03
12/21/08
1/08/07
12/22/04
If you mean the crescent-shaped rolls, you may want to look at “butter horns”
recipes as well:

Subject: Korbs Bakery Frosting
I loved Korbs Bakery frosting. Once someone told me that it was published
in the Providence Journal but that was a long long long time ago.
Hope you can help. Thanks
Denise
Hello Denise,
Korb’s main store was on Pawtucket Avenue, Pawtucket. The company's other two stores, one in Warwick and a second in Pawtucket, were joined by a small store located in the Outlet Company, Downtown Providence.
The business was founded in 1906 by Philip Korb, a Latvian immigrant. It became a thriving business passed on through three generations until Richard Korb, the third generation recipient sold the baking business to Ed Fiel, a Cumberland businessman who proposed to use the bakery in conjunction with cafes he planned to open. Richard Korb retained ownership of the building on Pawtucket Avenue. It was Field who finally closed the bakery after 93 years of operation.
I had no success with any recipes at all from Korb’s. There are lots of requests on the Internet for Korb’s recipes, but no one appears to have had any success. There is a page about Korb’s on this blog:
Korb's Bakery
I did not find any mention that the frosting recipe was ever published in the Providence Journal.
