Popular Post dughlas Posted August 21 Popular Post Share Posted August 21 12 hours ago, Mancunian said: To be more accurate, the main ingredient is pigs blood, if you fancy trying to make it here's the recipe;- Recipe information Yield Makes about 3 pounds Ingredients 4 cups fresh pig's blood 2 1/2 teaspoons salt 1 1/2 cups steel-cut (pinhead) oatmeal 2 cups finely diced pork fat (or beef suet), finely chopped 1 large yellow onion, finely chopped 1 cup milk 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper 1 teaspoon ground allspice Preparation Step 1 1 Preheat the oven to 325°F and grease 2 glass loaf pans. (If you don't have glass loaf pans, line metal loaf pans with parchment to keep the blood sausage from reacting with the metal and creating an off-flavor.) Stir 1 teaspoon of salt into the blood. Step 2 2 Bring 2 1/2 cups water to a boil and stir in the oats. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes, until just tender, not mushy. Step 3 3 Pour the blood through a fine sieve into a large bowl to remove any lumps. Stir in the fat, onion, milk, pepper, allspice and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Add the oatmeal and mix to combine. Divide the mixture between the loaf pans, cover with foil, and bake for 1 hour, until firm. Cool completely. Seal in plastic wrap and wither freeze for extended use or store in the refrigerator for up to a week. Step 4 4 To serve, either cut a slice about 1/2-inch thick off the loaf. Fry in butter or oil until the edges are slightly crisped and browned. Or if you prefer, cut a slice and eat it straight from the fridge, there is no need to cook it. Uhm, thanks, I guess. Mum talks about butchering a pig each autumn but blood pudding was not something they made. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
