Instructions
Prepare the Cracklings
If the pork cracklings are not already ground, pass them through a meat grinder on a medium setting. Alternatively, you can finely chop them with a sharp knife or pulse them in a food processor until they have a coarse, spreadable consistency.
Combine the Ingredients
In a medium bowl, combine the ground pork cracklings, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped hard-boiled eggs, and chopped pickled cucumbers.
Mix the Spread
Add the full-fat mustard and Dijon mustard to the bowl. Mix everything together thoroughly until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Season and Rest
Season the spread with salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking. For the best flavor, cover the bowl and let the spread rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve
Serve the pork crackling and garlic spread generously slathered on thick slices of fresh, crusty bread. It can be garnished with extra chopped onion or chives if desired.
