Questions about White pudding
How do you fry white pudding without it falling apart?
Cut it into slices about 1 cm thick and fry in a lightly oiled pan over medium heat for 3–4 minutes on each side, turning once the first side has browned. Avoid crowding the pan, and handle the slices gently.
Can you cook white pudding in the oven?
Yes. Put slices in a lightly oiled roasting tin and bake at 180 °C for about 15–20 minutes, turning halfway through, until browned and piping hot throughout.
What do you eat with white pudding?
It is a familiar part of an Irish or Scottish cooked breakfast, alongside eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms and toast. You can also serve it with mashed potato and onion gravy, or add fried slices to a sandwich.
How should you store white pudding?
Keep it refrigerated and follow the use-by date on the pack. Once opened, wrap it well and use it within the time stated on the packaging; freeze it before that date if you will not use it in time.
What can you use instead of white pudding?
For a similar savoury breakfast sausage, use pork sausage, though it has a different texture and seasoning. Black pudding is a closer match in shape and cooking method, but its blood-based flavour is much stronger.
Is white pudding already cooked, or does it need cooking?
Many versions are sold ready-cooked but still need reheating; others may require cooking through. Check the pack instructions, and heat it until piping hot throughout.
