Are you fond of crispy pork? Or pork rind cracklings? That oh so crunchy piece of pork skin that is dipped in vinegar that makes a crackling sound in every bite?

Well, we can make a healthier version of that! No pork! Same crispness, same crackle sound, same yumminess BUT less the cholesterol!

The stalk must be soaked in cold water longer, around 15 minutes. The reason is to soften it.
