Black Pudding Breakfast Recipe
Black Pudding Breakfast Recipe
Even though most of the best black pudding dishes are from Scotland, this easy black pudding recipe is more authentically Mexican than you might think. Offal and blood sausage are widely eaten in Mexico. Their version of a black pudding recipe is called Moronga. So when we were challenged to come up with some recipe ideas using under-appreciated cuts of meat, we made a special request for a black pudding recipe. We knew it’d make a great Mexican breakfast!
If you've never tried it, a black pudding breakfast is a great way to start the day—especially when it’s crispy and served with toasted fresh bread and perfectly runny eggs! The only thing that can make it better is a little bit of our recipe for chipotle mayo, prepared with our pantry staple Gran Luchito Chipotle Paste. Now you’re talking!
For this black pudding breakfast recipe, we have layered the toasted bread with the homemade Chipotle Mayo, followed by black pudding, and finally topped with a perfectly cooked egg. Very similar to our Avocado Toast breakfast recipe, instead of replacing the avocado with black pudding! It's also super quick, so can easily be whipped up for a weekday brunch.
Did you know?
Black pudding is made of pork blood, a bit of fat, and oats or barley. It's a great source of protein, low in carbohydrates, and high in zinc and iron. Because of these nutritional qualities, it's been described as a "superfood." You can enjoy it cold, as it comes, boiled, fried, grilled, heated in the oven, alone, with eggs, or with scallops.
