Information about the Danish Pølsevogn
Pølsevogn a Danish word literally means “sausage wagon. These hot dog stands can be found in most municipalities in Denmark, and even in parks. They basically pulled a hand truck with room for one person in making hot dogs. Sausage-wagon food is popular with tourists and Danes alike. The wonderful thing about them is that they showcase the Danish range of food seasonings, such as Denmark, the most notable sauce, pickles, and in some places they are offering local specialties.
Immigration and the gradual integration of immigrants, have also influenced this Danish tradition and led to the Halal Pølsevogn opened in Nørrebro, Copenhagen.
Sausage and hot dog stands are popular almost everywhere, but I do not think anywhere accepts the concept of sausage and bread as seriously as the Danes. Danish stand called hot pølsevogn can be found on almost any major street in Denmark. Much larger and more complex than the typical North American basket of hot, pølsevogn more like a mobile kitchen, outdoors along the lines in Germany.
The first hot dog was officially sold on the street in 1910 and quickly became popular. There were over 400 pølsevogn in Copenhagen 1950. Rødpølser one of the first types of hot dogs sold, it’s a long skinny Wiener, who was initially dipped in red paint to hide the fact that they can be a day old and look fresher. They are still traditionally painted in this color today and more than 100 million eaten each year in Denmark. Impressive in the country of 5.5 million!
Pølservogn pretty standard menu with pictures and posted on the side stand. Whatever you choose sausage comes on a plate with a stream of mustard and ketchup hot dog and the bun on the side.
Hot dog buns ristet come inside and topped with pickled cucumber, crispy onions, mustard, ketchup, pickles and (sweet pickle mayonnaise and herb sauce). Perhaps the most popular item sold fransk dog that hollowed out baguette filled with a special spicy mayonnaise and hot filling inside.
Pølsevogn, as a rule, motorized and can be managed from one place to another. In the morning, these slow-moving vehicles can cause congestion, but it seems, except as part of the city.
Pølsemanden are a special breed in Denmark, and can always rely on for interesting conversation. Young and old can be seen eating a hot dog day and night in Copenhagen. You must visit if you pølsevogn ever visit to Denmark.
