About

This salad is a good hearty meal full of protein. Black pudding may not be to everyone’s taste but, if you like it, you’ll love this way of serving it. The black pudding we use at The Providores restaurant comes from Stornaway on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland. It’s very large – about 7cm in diameter – dry-textured and quite delicious. There are many other black puddings in the UK – Lancashire and Yorkshire are both well known for them – and they are a wonderfully tasty addition to you diet!
