The rind is scored into narrow strips before roasting so every slice comes with its own ribbon of crackling (svær) to bite through.

A crusty roll piled high with slices of roast pork, crispy pork crackling, pickled red cabbage, cucumber and a smear of mustard or remoulade — sold hot from stalls at Danish Christmas markets and street food halls.

Why it's made this way: It's built from flæskesteg, the roast pork with crackling that anchors the traditional Danish Christmas dinner, turned into a handheld sandwich for eating on the move.
