About Blood Pudding

The Best Recipe For’s homemade Swedish blodpudding combines pork blood, rye flour and beer in a baked loaf. Its selected version uses butter and Swedish light syrup, with red onion among the ingredients.

Ginger, marjoram, white pepper and cloves give the pudding its spice character. Syrup adds sweetness to the savoury base, while bacon and lingonberry preserves provide the chosen accompaniments.

The loaf sets before appearing as butter-fried slices. Crisp bacon contrasts with the pudding, and the lingonberry preserves add a separate fruit element to the serving.
