Iberian Black Pudding, known as "morcilla ibérica," is a traditional Spanish sausage made with pork blood, rice or onions, and a blend of spices. This hearty delicacy is popular in Iberian cuisine, reflecting centuries of culinary heritage from Spain and Portugal. Often seasoned with paprika, garlic, and oregano, it delivers a deep, rich flavor that pairs well with savory dishes or tapas. Nutritionally, Iberian Black Pudding is high in protein and iron due to the inclusion of blood, making it beneficial for individuals needing to boost their iron levels. However, it’s also rich in saturated fats and sodium, which may not be ideal for those monitoring heart health or blood pressure. Moderation is key when enjoying this flavorful sausage. Whether grilled, fried, or as part of stews, Iberian Black Pudding stands out as a unique and indulgent component of Mediterranean gastronomy.
