Tell me more. Not familiar with Danish food.
Well in Denmark we leave the skin on to get a crackling on the roast. Rub with lots af salt.
We use it as is , with black gravy, potatoes pickled 🥒.
Or in a sandwich
That's called pururuca in Brazil
Danes LOVE pork belly / pork with skin / pork. It's wild. It's also amazing. Flæskesteg is what its called, normally you eat it with potatoes and brunsovs (literally just brown sauce, it's boring), or there is also koteletter I fad which is... creamy tomato sauce? (also amazing) usually over rice, or you can have with bernaise + rice + soy. Flæskesvær is their version of chicharrones.
Sadly can no longer indulge in it anymore but it's fucking amazing. Danes throw down when it comes to pork.
In Australia and the UK we like the skin as well when roasted. We call it crackling.
In the US it's called chitlins? pork rinds / chicharrones depending on where you're at. Tbh I prefer the fat on flæskesvær version because the fat has a really satisfying texture imo.
Everyone loves pork belly/pork with skin, not just the Danes
Obviously, but the specific context of the conversation was regarding danish food, hence the response.
Let's not forget stegtflæsk med persillesovs
I believe I had that once, but koteletter i fad was hands down my favourite. Esp with some soy over it. Might have to make it without the pork and see how I feel about it.
