Black pudding is a traditional meat product from Belgian and Dutch cuisine, also known as blood sausage.
It is made from pork blood, pork meat or bacon, and bread, rice, or flour, seasoned with spices such as pepper, nutmeg, and sometimes onion.

The use of blood gives black pudding its dark color and rich, full flavor. It is usually pan-fried until lightly crispy on the outside, while remaining soft and creamy on the inside.

Black pudding is often served with applesauce, mashed potatoes, or caramelized apples and is known as a hearty, warming dish typical of traditional cuisine.
