The Old Ship Black Pudding

I have never seen black pudding before and this was not what I was expecting. Black pudding is blood sausage, and so it should just be called blood sausage but as I had it at an English Pub in Fullerton California I can't fault them for being traditional.

In any case, The Old Ship's Black Pudding was flavorful and soft for sausage with a strong herbal tone and a texture that reminds me of well cooked barley.
