Dear Listers http://www.elizabethan-era.org.uk/black-pudding-old-recipe.htm Here is a clue!! Olde English but probably basically the same.  I can't really bring myself to type it out.  It is sausage - like and then cut into slices.  You can also get white pudding, and haggis can also be sliced and fried. Merry Christmas to every one and may we have a more peaceful New Year of 2011 Diana ________________________________ From: Joan Whitney <[email protected]> To: Diana Henry <[email protected]> Sent: Wed, December 15, 2010 6:06:27 PM Subject: Re: [WIG LIST] RE TATTIE SCONS please, for those of us who don't have a clue, what IS black pudding?  My grandfather was born in Strenraer in 1888 and died in Oregon, USA when I was 8 years old.  Nothing much Scottish trickled down- although we did have pasty three or four times a month and is still one of my favorites altho grandmother made it with ----ground beef.  Thanks.
