Comforting, savoury and softly spiced, our white pudding is a traditional sliceable pudding made with pork, oatmeal and gentle aromatics. Think buttery, peppery flavour with a tender crumb that crisps beautifully on the outside when fried or grilled. Perfect in a full Irish/Scottish breakfast, tucked into baps, or crumbled through stuffings and potato cakes. Ready in minutes; proper nostalgic goodness.

FAQs
What’s the difference between white and black pudding? White pudding contains no blood—it’s pork, oats and spices; black pudding includes blood for a deeper flavour.
Can I eat it cold? If marked ready-to-eat, yes—though a quick fry makes it far tastier.
How thick should I slice it? 1–2 cm gives a crisp outside and soft centre; thinner for extra crunch.
Does it contain gluten? Most do (oats/rusk/barley). Please check the label if you need specifics.
