Sanguinaccio dolce
Italian dessert made from pig blood From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sanguinaccio dolce ('sweet blood pudding' in English) is an Italian sweet cream based on bitter dark chocolate and pig blood, recognized as a prodotto agroalimentare tradizionale (PAT) in several Italian regions.[1][2][3][4] There are local variations in the degree to which it is served warm and runny for dipping or allowed to set and formed into a pudding or cake.[5] In Naples, it is traditionally prepared for Carnival.[6] However, public sale of pig blood was banned for health reasons in 1992.[7]
The dessert appears in the TV series Hannibal as a favourite of Hannibal Lecter.[8]
