Blood sausage
Blood sausage, often known as blood pudding, is a type of sausage made by mixing animal blood, usually from pigs or cows, with fat, grains, and spices. This mixture is then poured into casings and cooked. It’s a traditional dish in various cultures around the world, particularly in Europe, where it’s enjoyed for its rich flavor and nutritional value. While the idea of using blood may seem unusual, it has historically been a way to utilize all parts of the animal and reduce waste. Blood sausage can be served cooked or fried, often with accompaniments like onions or potatoes.
