Black Pudding. The cornerstone of any nutritious, Irish breakfast. So what is it? If you guessed sausage I’d say you’re right if you’re about to eat it. Then after you downed a piece I’d tell you what it really is. Ready? Congealed cattle or pig blood. It was first introduced in 1868. And FYI…BP goes great with baked beans, square sausage, mushrooms, and fried bread. Beer is optional.

Blimey....I've eaten this shit before.....LONG BEFORE I KNEW WHAT IT WAS. (It's a common food in a Portuguese household.)
ReplyDeleteHmmmm. Not a big eater of....well....anything that isn't pasta (my thighs can testify) but maybe just maybe I'd try that meal.
ReplyDeleteIt's supposedly good but eating blood has never appealed to me.

"The idea is very simple - every time you go to the blood donor place to donate blood, get them to keep a bit aside which you can take home and freeze. When you have a few pints of blood in your freezer, thaw it out and mix as directed with black pepper, cayenne pepper, mace, herbs, coriander and oatmeal."
I'm a veggie and i say HELL NO to black pudding and then black pudding made outta my own blood!
