Goetta Sizzling in Pan with Sesame Seeds

A perfectly pan-seared Cincinnati goetta loaf glistens in a cast iron skillet, its golden-brown exterior studded with toasted sesame seeds and coarse sea salt, with charred edges and steaming liquid pooling beneath. This iconic German-American meat and grain loaf evokes warmth, tradition, and the savory comfort of regional Cincinnati cuisine.
