29/12/20 - Stornoway Black Pudding

We head to Stornoway to hear the backstory of the now trendy Black Pudding and learn how it has been modernised for the ever-increasing demand.

Black pudding has enjoyed a resurgence in recent years, thanks largely to the endorsement of celebrity chefs who have purloined the blood sausage from its traditional place in the breakfast fry-up and paired it with seafood or used in salads, stuffings and stews.

The Western Isles town of Stornoway has emerged as the go-to destination for this product, and island butchers have geared up production to capitalise on the ever-increasing demand.

But what's the history of black pudding, how is it made - and where does all the blood come from?
