About Blodpelse
Andreas’s homemade Danish blodpølse is a cased blood sausage with rye flour and barley groats. Pig blood and diced pork fat form its base, with raisins and brown sugar included in the filling.
Cinnamon and cardamom give the sausage its sweet spice character, balanced by salt. Apple sauce, cinnamon and sugar accompany the sliced serving.
The mixture is enclosed in a natural casing and served as pan-fried slices. Grains and raisins remain part of the substantial filling, with the apple sauce providing a soft accompaniment.
