Irish Thought for February 4....

Irish Food

Drisheen - A type of black pudding, drisheen is made from a blend milk, salt, fat, herbs, breadcrumbs, and some other ingredients.  This mix is stuffed into a type of mold to give it the shape of a horseshoe.  The exact recipe varies from region to region, but the food is considered a delicacy.  As many of you might have discovered in your travels, Ireland and England and other countries in Europe have pudding that is not what we consider pudding (nope, not like Jell-O) in America.  Their pudding is more of a food that is eaten as a meal.  It looks like sausage to me.


Here is it made all fancy for a party!
