I found it when I googled lard, but this lood sausage article surprised me since I’ve revisited blood sausage recently after not having it since I was a child. .I’ve added you to my blog list on my site. We both live in Edmonton.I’m planning to order some pork fat and render my own lard soon. Glad I found you.

Mel – Like many things, it’s not nearly as nasty as you might think. That said, I’ll go on record that it’s also not my favorite sausage – but it was a heck of a lot of fun to make!!
AJC – If one is truly concerned about using the entirety of an animal, whether for moral ethics or survival, I totally ‘get’ blood sausage. From a culinary hedonism perspective, I don’t get it. But this is a guy who will pass on foie gras and white truffle too…

I can’t grow enough beans to get me through a winter, not on my clay soil, and I do have pasture grass in plenty that sheep happily convert into delicious meat.

That said … I dunno if I’m quiiiiiiiite ready for blood sausage yet.

I’m curious to see this video; maybe I will be able to overcome my revulsion…
