Treat your ingredients with care...
- Stornoway Black Pudding — Ensure the black pudding is cooked until crispy on the outside while still maintaining a moist interior. Be careful not to overcook it, as it may become dry.
- Whisky — Choose a good quality whisky that complements the flavors of the dish. The whisky should add depth and richness to the sauce without overpowering the other ingredients.
Tips & Tricks
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the whisky sauce.
- Serve the black pudding with a side of buttered toast or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
- If you prefer a sweeter sauce, you can add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup to the whisky sauce.
