    Nothing like a black pudding and fried egg buttie with side of bacon and sausage

    I wonder how many people don't like Black Pudding because they know what it is?

    I love it and was never told how it was made when I was a kid and so by the time I found out, it was too late to care as it is so yummy.

    Had white pudding in Ireland and wasn't a huge fan. Not sure how that is made.

    it's a bit like haggis, though. Well made is awesome, poorly made is dreadful. Kinda like sausages ... cheap'n'nasty are a world away from proper butcher sausages... i fyou've only had one kind.

    Note I didn't take the opportunity to joke with 'once you've had black...'

    I've always liked Haggis. And I actually quite like cheap simple sausages with not too much going on - onion, white bread and t sauce. Good times.

    Don't try and make em all fancy and serve them to me as a dinner, they're just snacks at kids footie

    I didn't grow up with BP, and my folks never said it was good when we'd see it in the butcher window. But once I tasted it, I was hooked

    That is a kind of un-joke. Claytons even.

    Very good.

    Made some plum and lime jam the other night, tastes fantastic, but didnt quite set as well as it usually does.

    Pure speculation - I was wondering as the tree didnt have as much fruit as usual, if the sugar content in the plums wasnt as high, thus not setting proper.

    Gonna try a plum and chilli chutney with what is left of the plums and the chillis I just picked.

    @taniwharugby Pectin is the setting agent which is a sugar itself, normally in the skin I think and cell walls of the fruit, so you are probably correct. You can buy it, a jam setting additive, it should be just pectin so should be a natural product (not some glue).

    Berry jams usually. Raspberries and suchlike don't have enough on their own.

    New plant or second/third season?

    My Rocotos are onto their 6th year! Last year was the biggest harvest. This year looks good but not as plentiful as last year.

    I was supposed to, yeah. I can do again once I have an abundance again. They will thrive up north due to no frosts
