Black pudding is a traditional dish in Ireland, made from pork blood, fat, oats and seasonings. It is usually formed into sausage-like shape, then sliced and pan-fried. It is often served as part of an Irish breakfast along with other ingredients like white pudding (a similar dish made with pork fat instead of blood), eggs, bacon, and baked beans. Black pudding has a rich, slightly gamey flavor and a soft, slightly chewy texture, and is considered a staple of Irish cuisine. It is also a popular ingredient in many traditional dishes, such as the Ulster Fry, a full Irish breakfast, and Irish stews.
