This generally is a nice steamed pudding but it's nothing beats a conventional Spotted Dick.
Accept Richard H (May 2015), that, even though this might actually be a tasty spotted dick, it's different spotted dick (also known as Currant pud), that Mother accustomed to make. The initial spotted dick had the components of suet, flour, currants and other things, cannot remember Mother using peel, but when the dough have been made and folded in suet, to around how big a little loaf. it had been then covered with muslin, tied at both sides, then put into a colander, which, was put into a pot of boiling water, and steamed for just two hrs. The smell was mouthwatering, and that i normally requested Mother six occasions approximately When will it ready Mother. Cannot remember ever getting custard onto it either, only a sprinkling of sugar. I am looking for somebody that could make one for me personally, that I'd certainly purchase. The recipe might be in a single of Mum's old prepare books, which we've around, however it was most likely handed lower anyway by my Nan! Alan P
Make certain you soak the currants in serious trouble until they're soft (approximately. 15 mins) it can make for any better pudding. This really is comfort food for any cold winters night
