Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 quart Fresh pig's blood
  • 8 7/8 ounce Bread cut into cubes
  • 1 1/4 quart Skim lowfat milk
  • 1 lb Cooked barley
  • 1 lb Fresh beef suet
  • 8 ounce Fine oatmeal
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 2 tsp Grnd black pepper
  • 2 tsp Dry and crumbled mint

Method

  • Put the bread cubes to soak in the lowfat milk in a hot oven.
  • Don't heat the lowfat milk beyond blood temperature!
  • Have the blood ready in a large bowl, and pour the hot lowfat milk and bread into it.
  • Stir in the cooked barley.
  • Grate the beef suet into the mix and stir it up with the oatmeal.
  • Season with the salt, pepper and mint.
  • Have ready 2 or possibly three large roasting pans.
  • Divide the mix between them - they shouldn't be more than 3/4 full.
  • Bake in a moderate oven - 350 F - for about an hour or possibly till the pudding is well cooked through.
  • This makes a beautifully light pudding that will keep well in a cool larder.
  • Cut into squared and fry until heated through and the outside is crisp, in bacon fat or possibly butter.
  • Delicious for breakfast, or possibly for supper with fried apples and mashed potato.
