Step 1
Slice the apple into thin wedges. Toss with vinegar, mustard, and caraway seeds in a small bowl.
Step 2
Score the landjäger skin lightly with a knife. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, no oil needed.
Step 3
Sear the sausage 2–3 minutes per side until the skin crisps and the center is warm. Shake the pan occasionally.
Step 4
Toast the rye bread in the same skillet (or toaster) until edges are golden.
Step 5
Plate the sausage and toast. Spoon pickled apples and mustard over the top, then sprinkle with fresh dill.
