Jan im Sack (also Jan in a shirt or Jannensack ) is the name of a traditional North German-Westphalian dish made from rice or pearl barley and dried fruit , which was previously prepared as a napkin dumpling . The word “sack” refers to the cloth used for it. Erich Urban describes it in his 1929 kitchen alphabet as a dish from Oldenburg .
Preparation: “The half-cooked rice wrapped in a serviette is boiled in boiling water for another hour [...]. When the dish is ready, you remove the napkin and pour melted browned butter, sugar and cinnamon over the firm dumpling . "
