Black pudding anyone ?

[Kirstie]

YUM! Love it (but I'm from Bury, the home of black puddings)

Stornoway BP??

I shall be importing a few whole ones when I'm next up there at the end of the month.

One time I was up on Lewis with work and came back with about 20 in a box (not all for us). I had flown up for the day so the only thing I checked in was the box of Blackpuddings (of course I have packed this myself..). Anyhow somehow this box ended up on the Glasgow flight not the Edinburgh flight and I did not get it back till the next morning.. they were all still fine (it was winter) but I could not believe it.

I've voted yes on the understanding that it would be the genuine Marag Dubh by Charley Barley.

Love the stuff, a fill english is nothing without a nice black pudding.

Mmmmmm.
Black pudding, bacon, sausage. Roast with crackling and apple sauce.
The pig undeniably the most tasty animal.

A few of the British type bars (pubs) out here include it in the all day breakfasts and I have them quite often at the weekends!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Stornaway Black Pudding is suposed to be REALLY good!

Me?? I'll eat it anywhere, and get this, apparently Pigs can't get CJD*, so we are all safe!!

Wouldn't eat a bovine version though.

* - Neither can dogs (and horses), so all those loving doggy licks wont get at you.
Cats can get CJD though and had some sort of problem with in the early '90s when pets were fed infected meat.

Eating black pudding...= eating blood. It's gotta be wrong.

Read my post above.

Black pud and egg yolk, made for each other.

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

I have just given a scientific breakthrough (sort of) in post 38 and you are only interested in the runny yolk of an egg??!!

Why do I even bother?!

 

[snapper_37]

Lovely! I prefer the sort without the big lumps of fat though.

That will be the 'Scottish' type. Less fat and more spice.

I don't mind the odd bit but mass production of the stuff does look like something out of your worst horror nightmare.

'Orrible stuff. The *only* thing it's good for is for chopping up a small amount *very small* and placing in a beef stew to disintigrate other than to add a richness to the stock. To eat as a thing on its own: Bleeccch.

We had Bury Black Pudding with bacon, egg and Derbyshire Oatcakes on Sunday

Its gorgeous! Especially when thickly sliced and fried until very crispy.

crispy fried black pudding with an egg fried quickly in very hot fat so that the white goes bubbly and crispy while the yolk is runny ... I could eat that combination for breakfast, lunch and dinner!
