Preparation of sanguinaccio dolce

Sanguinaccio dolce (Italian for 'sweet blood pudding') is an Italian sweet cream based on bitter dark chocolate and pig blood, recognised as a prodotto agroalimentare tradizionale (PAT) in several Italian regions.[1] 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.[2] In Naples, it is traditionally prepared for Carnival.[3] However, public sale of pig blood was banned for health reasons in 1992.[4][5][6][7]

The dessert appears in the TV series Hannibal as a favourite of Hannibal Lecter.[8]
