The dish probably comes from Germany or Denmark though the latter is unlikely because of a big difference in ingredients. Danish version consists of blood, pork, raisins, sugar, groats and flour.[1]
Kaszanka may be eaten cold, but traditionally it is either grilled or fried with some onions and then served with potato and sauerkraut.
