ASnyone any ideas what I can do with a large Black pudding (Scottish one)?
I foolishly sliced some of it and froze the rest ( I live in England now).
Now I realise that I am not allowed to defrost then refreeze, so what can I do it would take a diamond cutter to slice it now!
I have about a foot of it and dont want to waste it so any ideas appreciated for example can I cook it off the refreeze?

You can cook it and then freeze it. But, of course, you can't then defrost and freeze a second time - so make sure you put layers of something between slices or wrap them separately or in serving sized bunches.Hi, I'm a Board Guide on the Old Style and the Consumer Rights boards which means I'm a volunteer to help the boards run smoothly and can move and merge posts there.

As black pudding is already a cooked product I'm not sure it would be wise to cook it further then re-freeze it if you plan to re-heat it again to eat
You don't have to eat it just for breakfast though as it also goes very well with pork, lamb and fish dishes and fruits such as rhubarb, apple, plums etc. I have a recipe book somewhere called Black Pudding and Rhubarb and it has some yummy recipes in. Will see if I can dig it out later. I've added it to casseroles, stir-fried it with pork and apple and also made a spanish type sausage casserole using black pudding and chorizo. Will see if I can find the recipes for you later
Edit: forgot to add that it will keep for a week or so in the fridge defrosted, assuming it was fresh when you froze it, so you don't have to eat it all in one go"An Ye Harm None, Do What Ye Will"

Mashed Potato with Black Pudding mashed into it is really nice! Just cook the BP as usual and then mash it up with your potatoes/milk/butter...0

I always fry it. That's why I never thought of it as pre-cooked.Hi, I'm a Board Guide on the Old Style and the Consumer Rights boards which means I'm a volunteer to help the boards run smoothly and can move and merge posts there.
