@@wetry It's supposed to be a sausage… in a skin… Did no one tell you how to serve it? Generally, it's sliced and pan fried ’til the outside's crispy, then served with the other components of a 'full English' breakfast. It's Britain's equivalent of the Spanish (and latin American) morcilla, French boudin noir, Polish kaszanka, and German blutwurst, amongst other blood sausages found in most meat eating cultures' cuisines.

It is black pudding just without the sausage case. Oatmeal and pig/cow blood
@gillianrimmer773317 күн бұрын
@@FlatMolar, black pudding is made with fine oatmeal - not the coarse stuff. Also, it's put into sausage skins so that it can be boiled to cook. This results in a sausage that is firm, but sliceable and the consistency is smooth - it's more like a salami in texture, not crumbly and coarse like here. It's able to be eaten without cooking, if you want, because it has already been cooked, but is usually sliced and fried in bacon fat as a part of breakfast.

You picked a load of items you don't eat on their own lol. Haggis is served with neaps and tatties. Clotted cream goes on a scone. Beans go on buttered toast. Black pudding as part of a full English. Flake can be eaten on its own but most commonly in ice-cream

Good idea trying the HP sauce with the haggis, although as a Scotsman I would only ever eat haggis with mashed turnip and mashed potatoes with lots of finely ground white pepper. Totally wasted the Flake tho' . Clotted cream is normally eaten with buttered scones and strawberry jam(jelly to you I suppose). As someone else mentioned, that really did NOT look like black pudding. A good b/pudding would have small chunks of pork fat visible when the pudding was sliced. To be honest, only haggis made in Scotland and black pudding made in the north of England are considered to be genuine examples of those foods. If you ever get to the UK, hit me up and I'll give you the addresses of where to either buy or find great menu options for all the UK favourites, specifically a traditional English breakfast or a Sunday roast dinner; plus of course where to go to taste the very best Scotch Whiskey.

Come to the UK and try PROPER English food not full of additives, loads of sugar or E numbers ,you will find a total differance in taste and texture. Most of our food is cooked fresh for you in restaurants or our Pubs. Give us a try you wont be disappointed. Loved the review, keep up the good work.👍

This made me chuckle. A very interesting black pudding recipe (normally the oats would be ground) but whoever somehow made it look great; yes, like a brownie or something. It's not really a very popular thing to eat here but maybe this is a new twist. Also, the cream on chocolate was pretty funny for me. It's just a culture clash but usually the cream's for the scones you mentioned.

Where is the "here" you say that b/pudding isn't a popular dish, it certainly can't be the UK. I have lived in Scotland, England and Wales and you can buy black pudding in almost every supermarket and in every butcher's shop I have ever visited. If it wasn't reasonably popular, the shops wouldn't carry them.

Real haggis is banned in the U.S because of some of the ingredients. There are companies that make something similar. Ours is cooked in a sheep stomach. That is not a black pudding as we know it in the uk either.
