Homemade blood sausage (blood sausage) - recipes. My Ukrainian blood sausage (Krov'yanka) What can be prepared from ready-made blood sausage


The blood of domestic animals is a very tasty and nutritious product that can be consumed raw, boiled, fried and baked. The peoples of northern latitudes are great experts in using blood for food. In order to obtain high palatability of blood, they use methods such as calming the animal before slaughter, as well as proper bleeding. The blood is released from a slight cut in the artery and is drunk immediately. Quite often, such blood is mixed with fresh milk in various proportions and is a delicious dish. This custom existed among the Scythians, Pechenegs, Polovtsians and was in use among the Tatars. Since the time of the Tatar-Mongol yoke in Rus', the expression “blood with milk” has been preserved, which means nothing more than “healthy food”, since a person who consumed blood with milk was always healthy, strong and had an attractive appearance.

Finnish blood sausage

0.5 l of pork blood, 0.5 l of milk or kvass, 6 tbsp. tablespoons chopped lard and pork liver, 1/2 teaspoon ground white and allspice, 2 tbsp. spoons of salt, 2 teaspoons of marjoram, 500-600 g of rye flour, 250-300 g of barley flour, 2 onions, intestines, fat.

Chop the onion and lightly fry in a frying pan with fat. Cut lard, meat and liver into small pieces and mix with milk or kvass, spices and fried onions. Add pre-mixed two types of flour, pour in the blood and mix thoroughly. At the same time, it is necessary to add flour and add liquid not all at once, but very carefully, making sure that the mass does not lose a certain degree of steepness: it should ultimately be such that if you press hard on it with a whorl during grinding, the mass would spread steeply curls of a characteristic shape. Only in this case can we assume that it is prepared correctly.

Separate a small piece from the prepared mixture and fry it for testing in a frying pan to check to what extent it is saturated with fat and how evenly the fat permeates the entire mass. If the piece browns evenly without burning or drying out excessively, then the mixture is prepared correctly. If there is too much or too little fat in the piece, then the mixture should be rubbed for a few more minutes.

Stuff the prepared mixture into the intestines so that they are not too tight and, tightly tying them at intervals, form sausages. Boil them in salted boiling water for about an hour, and then fry them in the oven (on a sheet of foil) or scorch them with straw.

Serve blood sausages hot with lingonberry sour jelly or pickled lingonberries.

Readiness can be checked as follows: after 20 minutes from the start of cooking, take out one granny, cut it and if it is dark brown in the very middle, then the dish is ready. Remove all the palten from the broth, place in a colander, and allow the liquid to drain.

Serve hot on a heated platter with pickled lingonberries, lingonberry broth or garlic seasonings (garlic sauce) as a hot lunch dish.

Palten were always eaten only hot, piping hot, since dishes that contain blood do not tolerate heating well, and when cooled, as a rule, they are tasteless. But if the palten still remains in the refrigerator the next day, then, as experience shows, they should only be heated in boiling milk to restore the original taste.

Most types of sausages are made primarily from meat. Of course, it requires various additives (at least the same spices), but the main component is still pork (beef, horse meat, chicken, etc.). Another thing is blood sausage. It, of course, also includes minced meat, but the main ingredient in it is still blood. There are various recipes for blood sausages in almost all countries. Somewhere the “liquid component” should be bovine, somewhere sheep, somewhere pork, but it is everywhere. And if previously homemade blood sausage was available only to those who kept livestock on the farm, now all the ingredients can be purchased and cooked with your own hands.

Fighting prejudices

Some people are very hesitant about this dish. They say that since there is blood in it, then those who eat it are almost vampires. However, the long history of the existence of such sausage and the variety of recipes make such a point of view simply ridiculous. In addition to the amazing taste of these products, they are also very useful for humans. Blood is a life-giving substance, and sausage made from it helps improve blood formation due to the incredible amount of vitamins and iron it contains. It is not for nothing that doctors strongly recommend that pregnant women (and those women who are planning to conceive a child) and people who have undergone chemotherapy eat it. So it's wise to put aside any preconceptions you might have about blood sausage.

Who will have to give up blood

She has practically no contraindications, except perhaps being overweight. Yet black pudding is very nutritious, and can further increase this excess. The only thing you need to be extremely careful about is: if you are planning blood sausage for dinner (you want to make it yourself at home), then the animals whose body parts will be used in preparing the product must be absolutely healthy. So it’s better to buy everything you need in trusted places controlled by the sanitary service, and not in spontaneous markets.

Subtleties of cooking

First of all, the most important thing is the ingredients. Purchased intestines may be cleaned; even if this is the case, they must be washed thoroughly and then soaked in salt water for a couple of hours. But sometimes you come across uncleaned offal. In this case, you will have to carefully turn them out and remove the inner film with a non-sharp object. The second important component is blood. If you managed to purchase fresh meat, immediately after slaughter, salt it so that it does not curdle. Before stuffing, the blood must be filtered, and the clots are rubbed through a colander or turned through a meat grinder.

Now about the technology of “pushing” minced meat into the intestines. Many meat grinders have special attachments for sausages. If you don’t have such a device, build yourself a watering can from a plastic bottle: cut off the neck with half the volume of the bottle and attach one end of the intestine to it. You can push the minced meat with the handle of a fork or a pusher. You should not stuff it too tightly - during heat treatment, too-tight sausages may burst.

And lastly: at the end of cooking, the blood sausage is either fried or boiled. In any case, it must be pierced with a needle in several places to allow steam to escape.

Bloody milk without porridge

This is the easiest recipe. Unsalted pork lard (one and a half kilos) is taken, the skin is cut off, and it is finely chopped or ground. 5 cloves of garlic are crushed, mixed with lard, three liters of blood and a shot of cognac (high-quality vermouth, sherry or Madeira are also suitable). The filling is flavored with salt and spices (any pepper, nutmeg, cumin, cloves - whatever you want). One end of the intestine is tightly tied with a thread, through the other the blood sausage is filled with minced meat. A large container (basin, pan, bucket) is placed on the fire, warm water is poured into it - and onto the fire. After boiling, your homemade blood sausage will cook for half an hour. The finished product is carefully removed and cooled. You can eat!

Blood sausage with barley

Most often, blood milk is prepared with some kind of cereal. In our area, pearl barley and buckwheat are the most popular, with rice in second place. If you choose pearl barley, then 1 kilogram of it should be washed and boiled in salted water until soft, but still crumbly. About half a kilo of smoked lard is chopped, about 6 onions are chopped, everything is mixed with porridge and seasoned with spices. This blood sausage recipe is especially successful if it is supplemented with marjoram or oregano in addition to the usual seasonings. When the porridge has cooled, one and a half liters of blood are poured into it, and everything is mixed. The intestines are stuffed with minced meat, and the tied sausages are boiled for 10 minutes in salted water. Before serving, they should be fried in the oven or in a frying pan.

Filling with buckwheat

The preparation offered by this blood sausage recipe differs significantly from the previous version. A glass of cereal is poured with boiling water for a quarter of an hour. At this time, 300 g of meat (most often pork) and 200 g of fresh lard are cut into small pieces, salted, peppered and browned. A liter of blood is carefully poured into the prepared base, the strained cereal is poured in, and the filling is kneaded until the blood thickens. At the end, an incomplete glass of milk is added - and again the contents of the pan are mixed. When the minced meat has cooled, the intestines are stuffed with it and tied securely. Blood sausage with buckwheat is not cooked: it is placed in a frying pan and fried on both sides.

Well, in fact, the emergence of this topic is due to the fact that some of the products after hunting are rarely used for food. Well, in conditions of survival it is necessary to use all opportunities. Next there will be blood dishes, people with weak stomachs should read at their own peril and risk.

The basis for its production is meat and fresh blood. All other ingredients may vary depending on the recipe.

Composition and energy value of the product

Blood sausage, the benefits and harms of which are due to the high content of vitamins and microelements, is a good source of complete protein and vital amino acids. It contains quite a lot of valine, tryptophan, lysine and histidine.

It is also rich in vitamins D, PP and B. Blood sausage contains large amounts of sodium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, manganese and iron. The calorie content of 100 grams of this product is 379 kcal.

Blood sausage: benefits

Both the harm and the valuable properties of the product are due to its unique composition. It helps the body recover faster after undergoing chemotherapy. Therefore, it is recommended to regularly use it for cancer patients.

Blood sausage is rich in vitamins and minerals that support a healthy nervous system. And the increased content of amino acids and protein makes this product an indispensable component of the diet of professional athletes and people engaged in heavy physical labor.

Recipe No. 1. Blood sausage with cream

Blood sausage is made with the addition of liver (liver, lung, kidneys, heart), various cereals (buckwheat, pearl barley, millet, rice, semolina), onions, eggs and even apples. In our step-by-step recipe, we suggest trying bloodwort with cream; its taste is very juicy and delicate.

TIME: 2 hours 30 minutes.

Difficult

Servings: 8

Ingredients

  • Fresh blood - 2 liters;
  • Cream with a fat content of at least 33% - 0.5 liters;
  • Lard - 300 g;
  • Garlic (peeled cloves) - 0.5 cups;
  • Salt - 1 tbsp. with a slide;
  • Ground pepper - 1 tsp;
  • Cleaned thin intestines - 3 m.

Preparation

Fresh hot blood is slightly salted and vigorously mixed with a wooden spoon, collecting fibrin, which enhances blood clotting.
Next, the blood is boiled in water at a low boil for 40-60 minutes, stirring regularly, then placed on a sieve (to allow the water to drain).
Grind lard, boiled blood and peeled garlic in a meat grinder.
Add cream, salt, pepper to the mixture and mix everything well.


Cut the intestines into pieces of the required length (no more than 1 meter).
The intestines are thoroughly washed, then they are turned inside out and carefully (so as not to tear) rubbed with salt.
After 6-7 hours, the intestines are washed from mucus, soaked for a day in a vinegar solution and washed again. If the smell remains, repeat the procedure.
Check the intestines for integrity by taking a little water into them and moving it along the entire length.
Tie the lower end of the intestine with a strong thread.
Fill the intestine with minced meat using a meat grinder (removing the knife and grid) with a special attachment, or manually, putting the end of the intestine on the cut off neck of a plastic bottle. The intestines should not be filled tightly - they may burst during cooking.
Having filled the intestine, tie it up and distribute the minced meat evenly along the entire length.


The prepared sausages are pierced 10-15 cm along the entire length with a toothpick to let the air out, carefully lower several rings into a pan of boiling water and cook over low heat for 20 minutes (if the boiling is strong, the intestines may burst).
Then the rings are carefully removed from the pan, cooled (preferably with cold water) and allowed to dry a little.


Boiled sausages are poured with lard and baked in the oven for about 30 minutes at medium temperature.
The readiness of the product is determined by piercing the shell with a toothpick or fork. If the juice that flows out is clear (without blood), then the sausage is ready.
A crispy, beautiful, appetizing crust should form on the sausage.

Ingredients:

  • Fresh blood - 3 l;
  • Semolina - 2 cups;
  • Lard (without skin) - 1.5 kg;
  • Salt, pepper, garlic - to taste;

Home cooking:

The lard is boiled and ground in a meat grinder, at the same time as the blood.
Add semolina, salt, pepper, garlic to the mixture and leave to swell (about an hour).
The intestines are filled with the mixture, both ends are tied, several punctures are made in the shell and boiled in boiling water over low heat for about 20 minutes. Then the sausages are fried in a frying pan or baked in the oven.

Recipe No. 3. Homemade blood sausage in Ukrainian

A real Ukrainian blood sausage is the one prepared with liver and buckwheat!

Ingredients:

  • Pork blood - 1 l;
  • Milk - 1 glass;
  • Buckwheat (already boiled, crumbly) - 2 cups;
  • Liver (liver, lung, kidneys, heart) - 500 g;
  • Lard (without skin) - 250 g;
  • Onion - 1 piece;
  • Seasonings and salt - to taste;
  • Guts (already cleaned and prepared).


Preparation of Ukrainian blood milk:
The lard is twisted in a meat grinder with a large wire rack and fried in a frying pan for 10-15 minutes.
The onion is also chopped in a meat grinder, added to the lard and fried for 5 minutes. Cool everything to room temperature.
The liver is cut into small cubes or passed through a meat grinder.
Beat the blood with a blender until smooth.
Mix liver, lard with onions, blood, buckwheat, milk, salt and seasonings.
The intestines are filled with minced meat, the sausages are tied into a ring and boiled, and then fried or baked.

Home testing of blood suitability for consumption:

  1. It is shaken well and filtered through a sieve;
  2. Then pour a little blood onto the palm;
  3. Make small movements with your palm;
  4. If the blood spreads easily and evenly stains the palm, it is suitable for use.
  • It is better to use bovine blood - pork and veal blood do not harden well during cooking.
  • Fresh blood with a little salt added (closed tightly) can be stored in the refrigerator for 3 days.
  • You can use frozen blood to make homemade bloodletting. It is stored in a glass jar for a year in the freezer. To defrost, the blood is left at room temperature or placed in a pan of warm water.
  • To prepare homemade blood sausage, dried pork blood (food albumin) is also used, which is diluted simply with water in a ratio of 1:2.5 immediately before adding to the minced meat. It can be stored for 2 years in a dry place at room temperature.
  • The intestines, sprinkled with salt, are stored in a glass jar in the freezer for a whole year, then they lose their elasticity.
  • The finished semi-finished product (boiled sausages) is taken out of the pan, thoroughly greased with vegetable oil on all sides (so that the casing does not dry out and as protection against bacteria) - in this form the sausage is stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
  • For longer storage, the sausage is cut in several places (to be broken off as needed) and stored in the freezer. Defrost the sausages slowly (overnight in the refrigerator) or in the microwave in defrost mode.
  • It is recommended to serve sausages with bread and garlic sauce; Ukrainians like to eat them with grated white horseradish.
