Black pudding,otherwise known as blood sausage,is a dark sausage stuffed with animal blood seasoned and cooked with fillers such as bits of meat,suet,oats,or barley and congealed until solid. Although this dish is normally made with cow or pig blood,it can also be made with the blood of ducks,geese and lambs.The fillers,seasonings,and type of animal blood used vary according to regional tastes and local availability.

黑布丁,也叫黑香肠,是一种用动物血做佐料,并与肉、板油、燕麦、大麦等混合物填充入内的黑色香肠。尽管这道菜一般用牛血或猪血做原料,但是鸭血、鹅血和羊血也是可以的。根据地方的口味和食材来源的不同,用于制作黑布丁的填充物和佐料就有所不同。

Black pudding is extremely popular in England and Ireland. In northern England,it even has a festival dedicated in its honor:the World Black Pudding Throwing Championships,wherein participants sling black puddings in an effort to knock Yorkshire puddings off a stack.British black pudding is generally made with pig's blood mixed with pork fat and oatmeal or barley.It is traditionally served as part of a full breakfast,but it has become popular as a fried item in fish-and-chip shops.
