About Beef blood

Beef blood is blood collected from cattle for use as a food ingredient. It is sold or handled in forms that may be fresh, chilled, frozen, or processed, but this entry does not identify a specific form.

When used in cooking, it can thicken or bind mixtures and contributes a deep, savory character. Its appearance and texture vary with freshness and handling, from fluid when fresh to set or coagulated after treatment. Culinary practices differ, and the record does not specify a particular preparation.
