How to prepare blood sausage
In Austrian cuisine, blood sausage is one of the absolute delicacies! Made from headcheese, diced bacon, cooked pork rinds, white bread and a little milk, it has an unmistakable aroma.
Of course, there is one thing that must not be missing, which is also the reason why it must always be made fresh. We are talking about blood, of course. The finest spices, including marjoram, pepper, garlic, allspice and thyme, give it an extra piquancy and make it unique.
Mixed to a homogeneous mass, the blood sausage, typically called Blunzn in Viennese, is filled and cooked. During this process, the protein transforms, giving the sausage its typical reddish-brown colour
. The subsequent smoking process gives the sausage an extra aromatic kick!
What does black pudding taste like?
Blunzn is a real speciality and has a very intense flavour. It tastes best with hearty side dishes such as sauerkraut or potato pancakes. But it is also a hit as an addition to Gröstl.
Fun facts about blood sausage
It is considered a delicacy in Austria, but blood sausage is also a real hit internationally. Few people know that almost every country has its own version of blunzn.
The French enjoy it as "boudin", the Spanish call it "morcialla", in Finland there is "mustamakkara" and even in the Caribbean and the Seychelles you can enjoy blood sausage
.
Quantity per person
We recommend one pack of black pudding for two people.
Herkunft und Haltung
Fitmeat prioritises the highest quality and species-appropriate animal husbandry. That's why 100% of the animals come from farms in the lake region of the Salzkammergut (Upper Austria).
As we distance ourselves from long transport routes and factory farming, we have the animals respectfully slaughtered individually by our partner butchers in the immediate vicinity of the farms (max. 15 minutes transport time) or directly on the farm.
We also have close and personal contact with the farmers and work exclusively with butchers who know both the farmer and the animal personally. Our master butchers cut each animal into its prime cuts and allow them to mature in a targeted manner. This applies not only to our steaks, but also to our ham, sausage and bacon!
These are carefully prepared and refined by hand by our master butchers according to the original recipe. The result? Sausage, bacon and ham for a tasty snack between meals.
