Actually in my language it’s more the word crust. I had no idea how to translate

skepp · June 5, 2021, 7:20pm

We call it svål which is a word for pig skin.

We, Romanians, call it Şorici.
And during the winter we like to eat it like this

skepp · June 5, 2021, 7:40pm

Is it just dryed?

Eloi · June 5, 2021, 7:43pm

Slightly burned on open flame.

never eaten much cracklin, but I love me some pork rinds

Some of the better restaurants around here have started offereing fresh pork rinds as free appetizers instead of bread. Mmm… now I’m hungry.

@thicthock the crust on that pork looks amazing.

My Grandmother (German/Hungarian) used to make these little rolls with crackling mixed into the dough. Really good stuff.
