Black Pudding

Full product description

Rich, savoury and properly traditional, our black pudding brings a deep, peppery warmth and a soft, oaty crumb that fries up beautifully crisp on the outside. Slice, sizzle and serve with a full breakfast; cube for salads and scallops; or crumble into stuffings and potato cakes. It’s ready in minutes and transforms any plate with old-school comfort.

FAQs

What’s the difference vs white pudding?
Black pudding includes blood for depth and colour; white pudding doesn’t—milder and lighter.

Can I eat it cold?
If marked ready-to-eat, yes—though a quick fry for colour and crispness is best.

How thick should I slice it?
1–2 cm for a soft centre; go thinner for extra crunch.

Does it contain gluten?
Most do (oats/rusk/barley). Please check the label.
