Pudding. No not that Jello poo poo. Real British pudding. To those of us in America pudding just means some hella sweet thing made by mixing a weird powder with milk and getting some goopy gelatinous thing or worse, just opening a weird molded plastic cup. According to Heston Blumenthal, pudding is anything that is starts out as primarily liquid that is cooked in a casing or a mold. It is also not necessarily sweet but can also be savo(u)ry.

Relatively recently I was recommended trying Sticky Toffee Pudding at a Gordon Ramsay restaurant and never actually got a chance to try it at the restaurant. Having missed out I was looking for an opportunity to try to make it myself and decided to make it for thanksgiving. It was phenomenal. I made it again for a christmas party this last saturday and it broke people’s tastebuds, I’ve been getting texts about it every day since then. So yeah, it has sparked my interest in other puddings! I know I love bread pudding, black pudding, and yorkshire puddings so so far puddings seem pretty awesome so let’s all make some pudding!



Some pudding examples:
Sticky Toffee Pudding
Haggis
Christmas Pudding
Yorkshire Pudding
Plum Pudding
Spotted Dick
Sponge Pudding
Jam Roly Poly
Black Pudding
Bread and Butter Pudding or Bread pudding for short

Well I guess I'm up first then:

Eve's Pudding

My mum used to make this when I was a kid and I recently nagged her to find the recipe since I remember loving it. It's basically a sponge pud but still fairly dense.

Peel/core/slice a load of cooking apples, mix with demerara sugar and grated lemon rind - layer in the bottom of a greased dish.
Cream together butter and caster sugar then beat until fluffy. Beat in some vanilla essence and a couple of beaten eggs gradually.
Fold in self-raising flour and enough milk to make it nice and smooth.
Spoon that over yer apple mix and smooth the top. Bake that puppy at a medium temp until it passes the skewer test.

Eat it with custard or forever get the stinkeye from people who know.

Then take poo poo pictures (one with a portion half-eaten) for proof.





Think of it as a really ghetto pineapple upside-down cake except with apples and little of the finesse.

I am not a pudding expert by anymeans, maybe a Briton could more adequately answer. I know I've seen "pudding cakes" for sale before.

I puddinged tonight of the Yorkshire variety with a Ducasse'd ribeye and a shaved beet salad with prickly pear balsamic vinaigrette and goat beemster.

I laminated a few more of the Grandmatriarch's recipes and came across this while sorting cards next to some apples:


Yeah, instant tapioca :dealwithit:


Subbed the last of a bag of demerera in the bar for some of the sugar and used white for the balance rather than dig fresh brown goodness from the pantry. And dropped in a snap of cinnamon while simmering the hot water rather than use powdered. Apples were two Granny Smith and one Mac.


And to further bend the rules, I didn't wait for all of it to cool and set. Rather, I spooned some still piping hot over vanilla ice cream. Some rum-ed whipped cream over it all would have been perfect.

Now to find a new, breadier pud to try.

Self saucing chocolate pudding. This will make you fat, mainly because it's so easy and the ingredients are usually available when the urge strikes.

You need a deep dish.

OVEN ON TO 180C/360F

BASE:

75g melted butter
1/2 cup milk

3/4 c caster sugar
1 tbs cocoa powder
1 cup white flour
3 tsp baking powder
pinch salt
handful of raisins and/or coconut

TOPPING:

1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup caster sugar
3 tbs cocoa powder

1.5 cup warm water

Mix butter and milk with first lot of dry ingredients, making a cake batter. Spread that in the dish.

Sprinkle the sugar/cocoa mix over the top. Gently pour the water over the top of that. Hopefully this comes about half way up the dish. Into the oven for 40 MINS.



When it's done you'll have an inch of chocolate cake with a crisp top floating on an inch of thick, hot, oozy chocolate sauce. Best with cold cream.

Hey so today we were chatting in IRC and Icehook mentioned eggnog pudding and I had the hilariously terrible idea for eggnog panna cotta! So I took a little of the nog I made last year from this recipe and added some gelatin and now I have a hilariously boozy dessert that harshes the back of your throat because I accidentally boiled the nog when I heated it. I bet it's pretty good when you don't gently caress up though!

Mrs. Reagan's Persimmon Pudding. My grandma used to make this every Christmas. Sadly, due to my starting it too late and my jury rigged steamer dripping condensation into the batter, I had to stick it in the oven to finish and the texture is pretty tough. But it still tastes good and works as the vehicle for cream and brandy sauce that it really is.

Queen Louise pudding

This is the best pudding in the world.


3 egg yolks
5 dl single cream
1 vanilla bean
.75 dl sweet sherry
1 dl sugar
5 sheets gelatine




Soak gelatine. Combine half cream and egg yolks in pot with scraped vanilla bean and heat under constant whisking until thickened and hot. Add sugar. Add gelatine. Whisk together and strain. Cool to room temperature. Whip remaining cream and combine evenly, pour into mould and chill until set. The heating of the eggs and cream enrichen and deepen the flavour, and render an unctuous consistency, while the whipped cream adds lightness and air. Lightly sweetened, with heady sherry aroma. Serve with a fresh, sweetened, warm berry sauce of some kind. Blackcurrant coulis is particularly good, as is raspberry.

Rice pudding trying brandied raisins and condensed milk. The condensed milk had my attention since coming across it on Pioneer Woman and was fine if no niftier than just sugar in a normal rice pud. Boozed raisins, however, are awesome in this. Wife vetoed a caramel pecan sauce and made a mixed fruit coulis for me to top with, instead.

The coulis didn't match very well, but it was a very good sauce in its own right. And its inclusion guaranteed domestic stability :v:

I made this for a choir party before Christmas. It went over well--there were maybe a few large spoonsful left at the end of the night, and the director had been spotted going around commenting at random on how good it was.
