Pølsesalat, or Danish sausage salad, is a typical mayonnaise based lunch salad served on rye bread in Denmark. I remember standing at the butcher shop's deli section with my mom or dad, and the sausage salad would be my pick, if I had a say. And sometimes I was allowed to get it. I do believe that I was the only one in the family who liked it. As an adult, I still bought it now and again, for a trip down memory lane. Most deli's would have pieces of cold boiled potatoes in their sausage salad, but I left them out here.
Serves 4.
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon ravigotte sauce, or a sweet mustard
- 4 german franks, boiled, cooled, sliced
- chives, for sprinkle
Directions:
Put the german franks in a Bowl and pour over boiling water, let stand for about 5 minutes. Remove the franks and put them into a bowl with ice-water, set aside to cool.
Mix the mayonnaise and ravigote sauce together in a bowl. Slice up the franks, and mix them into the dressing.
Serve the sausage salad on a slice of Danish rye bread, as an open-faced sandwich. Sprinkle some chopped chives on top.
Enjoy!
