Me, its yummy and great with English mustard, slurp.

because it doesn't look like that by the time you eat it. Having passed time in a sausage factory, anything pre-cooked and goopy is enough to put you off it - but black pudding (whilst maybe an acquired taste) is lovely stuff, and enhances so many other dishes - particularly breakfast, and scallops.

I love the stuff

[Hatchetfacehelga]

Have any of you made it? It seems pretty simple.

I absolutely love black pudding with my fry up :)

[Hatchetfacehelga]

Is white pudding the same but using mainly fat instead of blood?

[merciasounds]

no, it's pork meat, oats onions barley seasonings,

[Hatchetfacehelga]

It looks like an Artery clogger!

[merciasounds]

Well, it wouldn't do to eat it everyday!!

[Seusse]

Ive never tried white pudding but the fruit pudding is great also, im assuming its like the white only with sultanas in it

I think we're on different wavelengths here seusse, that isn't fruit in the picture, it's pigs blood

[Hatchetfacehelga]

And black pudding here.

Also know as blood sausage I think.

[Seusse]

c'mon helga - where is your sense of adventure? Fried with a full English - it is delicious. Now if you want to talk about vomit-inducing there is always jellied eels..........

[woofgang]

the original why was simple.....animals must be bled otherwise the meat becomes inedible and waste not want not.

[Hatchetfacehelga]

Thanks 2shortplanks I've never even heard of red sausage till you mentioned it!
