Irish White Pudding Sausage

I fell in love with white pudding living in New York and eating numerous Sunday breakfasts at our local Irish pub, Fiona’s. Highly seasoned with ginger and other strong spices and buffed out with steel cut oats it’s sits perfectly beside eggs but I love it in soup too. It really is one of my favourite cooked sausages.
