Re: Black Pudding on Burnley open market
Unbelievable value for a world class local product.
You can buy them for pence on Burnley market and eat them with vinegar or you can find them for £20+ served with scallops in a trendy restaurant.
Both are nice but one wins hands-down on value for money.
Burnley should make a lot more fuss about it's black puddings. Bury market can take a hike.

Not wrong! I can get slices of Bury Black Pudding here from Iceland, but it just isn't the same.Rowls wrote:Unbelievable value for a world class local product.

I used to buy them up in wintertime and take them home after a matchday.Funkydrummer wrote:They don't travel well.
I'd have to keep them in the boot of the car whilst the match was on, hence wintertime, but when they were back home they froze perfectly well and kept for months.

Re: Black Pudding on Burnley open market
I remember as a child walking round the open market outside the old market hall: my mum would buy us a black pudding each, which we ate with plenty of vinegar. They cost threpence each (an old threpenny bit), which I reckon is roughly one and a quarter pence in today's money. Once we had eaten them, we wiped our hands on a dirty, well used cloth, which hung on a nail on the stall. No health and safety in those days. Happy memories.

Re: Black Pudding on Burnley open market
I developed a deep nostalgic yearning for a Burnley Market black pud. The problem being that I live in the USA. So I decided to make my own. The problem then being that my butcher said it's illegal to sell animal blood for human consumption. But he said if you ask me to sell you some chum for shark fishing, I'm allowed to sell you that. So I said can you sell me some shark chum? And he sold me a 5 gallon bucket of blood for $10. They turned out fantastic, exactly as I remembered.

Re: Black Pudding on Burnley open market
If you are sqeamish about blood you wouldn't have wanted to be in Watterfooit on a cold night in the 1980's when the blood vat at the black pudding factory developed a leak and the blood seeped out through the factory doors and down the road before freezing in to a bloody ice rink! They had to call the fire brigade to swill it away. True story!
I think that round here there are only two black pudding makers going now, RS Ireland and the Bury Black Pudding Company. There used to be a guy in Walsden who sold them on Tod market, but he's long since disappeared. He won a national championship and was telling me they got up to all sorts of tricks to try to win, including Brylcreaming the puddings to give them a special shine!

A little research reveals that there are more producers still on the go than I thought. I'd missed Chadwicks of Bury, the Real Lancashire Black Pudding Company in Rossendale and a recent newcomer Porcus of Todmorden! So there you go.

Re: Black Pudding on Burnley open market
CHadwicks in Bury actually used to supply ( probsby /possibly still do ) most of the black pudding stalls in the area inc Burnley /Blackburn /Accy/Preston etc .
It’s the food of the gods either par boiled or fried , though anything but English mustard would be poor form , as for vinegar wtf would anyone destroy the flavour of it with that ! Jesus wept ! Vinegar was for tripe

Most would expect them served in a tray complete with fork and condiments for about a £1! which is the reason we’ll never see black pud on the turf ( imo )ClaretTony wrote:Given the choice of food at the Turf is considerably less than it was over 40 years ago, I don't seem them bringing in black pudding.

Re: Black Pudding on Burnley open market
Already mentioned by at least a couple of posters but - a cherished childhood memory of mine is eating black pudding from a stall on the open market outside the old market hall.
My mam, dad, me and sister used to go into town shopping Saturday early, when most of the shopping was done my ma & sis used to do some "girlie shopping" whilst me and dad went and had a black pud. There were at least a couple of stalls I think (additional to a couple of tripe/offal stalls).
There were two big steamy vats and you could get fatty or lean puds (the lean ones were pretty fatty) you got them (cut through) on a little plate/ saucer. Vinegar, salt, mustard were the available condiments, you ate them with your fingers and, yes, that towel that you could wipe your fingers on was undoubtedly a health hazard. I also have a recollection of the pudding skins being deposited under the skirt of the stall.
Great bonding and culinary experience.
I can almost taste the puddings having written that.
