Sneem Black Pudding ( Irish: Putóg Dhubh na Snadhma) is a variety of black pudding produced in Sneem, County Kerry, Ireland. [1] [2] [3]
Produced by local butchers Peter O'Sullivan and Kieran Burns, [4] it is described as "traditional blood pudding, uncased and tray-baked. It has a deep red-brown colour and is free from artificial colours, flavours, bulking agents and preservatives." [5] It is sold in squares rather than rings, and the ingredients are beef suet, onions, oat flakes, spices and blood (from pigs, cattle and lambs of South Kerry). [6] [7]
It is claimed that home blood pudding production in the region dates back to the early 19th century, traditionally produced by women; the current recipe dates to the 1950s. [8] [9] [10] In 2019, Sneem Black Pudding received Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) status. [11] [12] [13] [14]
