About Black Pudding
Guyana Outpost's black pudding fills cleaned casings with seasoned rice and cow's blood. Grated coconut and salt meat cook with the rice before the mixture is cooled and combined with chopped herbs and cinnamon.
Eschallot, celery, broad- and fine-leaf thyme, and the herb called married man pork provide the savoury seasoning. The strained blood is mixed through until it coats the rice evenly.
The filled casings are gently boiled, then allowed to cool and darken. A brushing of oil finishes the outside, and the pudding is served with sour.
