A finger-thick warm slab of baked Leberkäse in a Semmel, mustard chosen by region. The cross-border form of the southern German hot snack, with the spelling itself carrying the geography.
Leberkäse mit Spiegelei crowns the warm baked slab, often crisped again in a pan, with a sunny-side fried egg whose runny yolk floods the meat as sauce: a snack turned knife-and-fork plate.
Run a knife down a Leberkäse loaf and you hit a crust, because this is the one German emulsion baked rather than boiled. The warm slice and a stripe of sweet mustard are what that bake gives you.
