Pudding and souse is a traditional dish found in Barbados through out every community. It's a dish made mainly on Saturday mornings. The souse is made from various parts of the pig, and the pudding is made with seasoned sweet potatoes. I've change this recipe up a little and made the souse with chicken instead of the traditional pork. Combine the two and you have a beautiful combination of Barbados pudding and souse. Try it once and you will fall in love.
