Directions
Figgy Pudding, I have always wondered what they were talking about in that Christmas carol Well here it is; a recipe for Figgy Pudding I always pictured a traditional pudding like we know it, but the English mean something different It’s actually more bread or cake-like The taste may be a little strange to some, but to me it smells and tastes like Christmas The figgy pudding should always be served warm If you can’t serve it fresh out of the oven, it will taste just fine to warm it in the microwave for a few seconds , First time out the gate made a brilliant figgy pudding using this recipe I didn’t have 16 0z of dried figs, so I made up the balance with some stoned and chopped dates and cranberry raisins I made one mistake otherwise and I let the milk get too hot and it curdled Made no difference in the long run A lovely pudding, I’ll eat it tomorrow warmed up with Creme Anglais, otherwise known as Birds Custard
