lol bury market isnt all it's hyped up to be and not to mention the fact i hate BP anyway :p


It wasn't an attempt to hyperbole Bury Market as I will agree other then the fish market it isn't a place I often visit. However it is famous for it's black pudidng.
 
Black Pudding is lovely stuff, regularly have it on a BBQ. White pudding is also rather tasty, but not as good as black.
 
I eat it if its on the plate, I dont shop for it or specially go to a pub/cafe/restaurant just to get it. I do have it with breakfast at work. I Love Haggis, but like it microwaved crispy. Not tried white pudding - one lad at work was telling me about it, and his mouth started watering; it must be good.

How can something be both microwaved and crispy :p
 
I love black pudding.

sliced and fried until it is crispy on the outside but still soft in the middle.

I once ate two whole puddings for a bet...two days before I had a full medical (with 'samples')

they looked terrified when I handed them the little pot with a monster jet black beast in it.

Bacon and Black pudding Sandwich! lush.

Traditional black pudding is pigs blood, but now a days its usually just made from powder, fat and water. So it aint as bad as it sounds.

Actually, it is cooked along with a filler (oats or whatever) to a point where it congeals when it cools.

It is literally a big blood clot.

You will find most of the black pudding produced today is made from a powder that is mixed with water (the powder is dried powdered blood, or a blood substitute), then you add boiled bacon fat and boiled oats and stir until it thickens. Once thickened you then fill through a suasage machine into animal intestines (think it's pig's but can't quite recall) which are tied off and then immersed in hot (not boiling) water until cooked. Black pudding actually comes out brown unless you add soda crystals which turn the skins black.

An old guy who i used to work for at a butchers could recall riding to the abbatoir around the 1920's on his pedal bike, collecting two buckets of blood which he hung on his handle bars then cycled the 12 miles back to the shop to make the black pudding!
