๐Ÿง› Itโ€™s all Team Edward over here this week as we launch one of our fav seasonal weens of the year - BLOOD SAUSAGE!

๐Ÿซ A brief history lesson:

๐‘จ ๐’˜๐’†๐’†๐’ ๐’๐’‡ ๐‘จ๐’๐’„๐’Š๐’†๐’๐’• ๐’“๐’๐’๐’•๐’”: Blood sausages are among the oldest prepared foods. The Greeks and Romans made them, and Homerโ€™s Odyssey mentions a stomach stuffed with fat and blood. The practice spread across Iberia, and by the Middle Ages morcilla was a staple across Spain. It appears often in Golden Age literature.

๐‘ป๐’‰๐’† ๐’Ž๐’‚๐’•๐’‚๐’๐’›๐’‚ ๐’•๐’“๐’‚๐’…๐’Š๐’•๐’Š๐’๐’: In the Burgos countryside, each family slaughtered a pig in late autumn or winter. Nothing was wasted, so the blood was mixed with fat and local ingredients and stuffed into casings to last through the cold months. Each region developed its own version. Burgos became known for rice, the sweet local horcal onion, lard and spices such as paprika and pepper. Rice made the sausage more filling and cheaper to make, and that suited a farming diet.

๐Ÿง›โ€โ™‚๏ธ Chris has created our own version of this traditional sausage with: Pork, pork blood, brown rice, garlic, chipotle, oregano, cumin and black pepper.

โค๏ธ Donโ€™t knock it till you try it. Itโ€™s hella delicious and incredibly nutritious as itโ€™s high in protein (obvs), iron, B12 and zinc.

Avail till it runs out! ๐Ÿฆ‡
