Salisbury Steak

Cultural Context

Salisbury Steak originated in the United States in the late 19th century, named after Dr. James H. Salisbury, who advocated for a meat-heavy diet. This dish became a popular comfort food, especially during the Great Depression, as it was affordable and filling. Today, Salisbury Steak remains a staple in American cuisine, often served with mashed potatoes and gravy, and has inspired variations in many households.
