COMFORT FOOD
Ireland’s bangers and black pudding
WHAT IT IS
Pork sausages alongside a blend of onions, meat and pigs’ blood molded into a sausage form
HISTORY
Since Ireland was a peasant society for centuries, food had to be cheap and provide fuel for manual labor. These days, bangers and black pudding are two components of an Irish breakfast that also includes white pudding (blood-free sausage that contains oatmeal), rashers (think Canadian bacon), tomatoes, fried eggs and toast.
