English Black Pudding Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 quart goose blood
- 16 oz milk
- salt and pepper
- 1 lb. shredded suet
- 2 large onions, minced
- 1 oz oatmeal, toasted
- a length of sausage skin to stuff
How to make it:

Pour the blood into a deep bowl
Add 1 tsp salt, stirring constantly
Strain with a seive
Add milk, mix well
Add suet, minced onions, toasted oatmeal, 1 tsp salt and 2 tsp black pepper and mix well
Fill skins using a sausage stuffing machine or a funnel with a large opening, making the sausages the length you require. Do not overstuff or the sausages will burst when cooked
Cut each sausage leaving a length of skin on each end in order to tie them off
Put the finished sausages in the water for a few minutes
Prick each sausage with a cooking fork and turn them in the water
Cook gently for about 2 hours
Remove from pot and hang to let cool
When cool, slice and fry
