🇮🇪 Ireland recipe
Black Pudding
Black pudding is one of the oldest foods in Irish cuisine, a blood sausage that stretches back to the days when nothing from a slaughtered animal was wasted. Clonakilty in County Cork is particularly famous for its black pudding. Made with pork blood, oatmeal, onions, and a careful blend of spices, it is pressed into sausage casings and slowly poached. When sliced and pan-fried, it develops a magnificent crispy exterior with a rich, creamy center that is unlike anything else.
