Verhackert

Verhackert is an Austrian spread originating from the region of Styria. It is made with finely chopped speck that is combined with salt, minced garlic, and (not always) pumpkin seed oil, which is a true gem of Styria. This speck-filled spread can sometimes be bought in the form of sausages with a plastic casing, and more rarely in cans or jars. It is recommended to serve verhackert with thick slices of bread.
