Føners

Føners are a type of traditional Danish bread that have been a staple in Danish cuisine for centuries. The term "føner" is derived from the Danish word "føn," which means "oven." These breads are typically baked in large, flat ovens called "fønner," which are a distinctive feature of Danish architecture and culture. Føners are known for their distinctive shape, which is often round or oval, and their crispy, golden-brown crust.

The dough for føners is made from a simple combination of flour, water, salt, and sometimes yeast or sourdough starter. The bread is typically baked at high temperatures, which gives it its characteristic crispiness. Føners are often served with various toppings, such as butter, jam, or cheese, and are a popular choice for breakfast or as a snack.

Føners have a long history in Denmark, dating back to the Middle Ages. They were traditionally baked in communal ovens, which were a central feature of many Danish villages. Today, føners are still a popular bread in Denmark and can be found in bakeries and supermarkets throughout the country. They are also gaining popularity in other parts of the world, where they are often enjoyed as a taste of Danish culture.
