Dyrlægens natmad

Dyrlægens natmad, which translates to veterinarian's midnight snack, is a popular variety of the Danish smørrebrød. The sandwich is assembled with rye bread that is spread with butter and used as a base to hold the various toppings which include sliced salted beef, sky (Danish meat aspic), and leverpostej (liver pâté). Traditionally, the sandwich is finished off with sliced red onions, sprouts, and a sprinkle of parsley or dill. Due to the number of ingredients, it is suggested to consume dyrlægens natmad with a knife and fork.
