They mixed rye flour with the blood so that the mixture was suitably thick. To this they added fat and syrup, if they could spare it. All this was stuffed into intestines and cooked. Thicker blood dough was made for blood cakes. Sometimes they scratched the sausages and boiled them in milk. They thought it was delicious.<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>From Om sj\u00f8samene by Anders Larsen (1950)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"M\u00e1rfun - black pudding making\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Yn_2GDP7So8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Blood mixture for sausages<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>2 litres of blood<br>2 tsp salt (approximately)<br>Sugar or syrup<br>Cloves and allspice<br>Coarse baking flour<br>Kidney algae in sliced pieces<br>Raisins (we dredge them in flour first so they don't fall into the bottom of the sausage)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>See how Ruth Larsen makes black pudding in the film above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure>\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"401\" class=\"gb-media-72850f79\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/nordligefolk.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/sistersblodpolseG.jpg\" title=\"Finished black pudding.
