Plum Pudding Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Directions
  • The pudding mixture:
  • Toss the bread crumbs in a large mixing bowl with the raisins, sugar and spices. Then toss with the melted butter, and finally with the rest of the ingredients, except, of course, the holly and Zabaione Sauce. Taste carefully for seasoning, adding more spices if needed.
  • To steam a Plum Pudding:
  • Use a steamer made for this purpose. You must have a container with a very tight lid on it which will stay sealed throughout the cooking. Steaming--about 6 hours: Pack the pudding mixture into the container; cover with a round of wax paper and the lid. Set the container on the steaming contraption in the kettle, and add enough water to come a third of the way up the sides of the container. cover the kettle tightly; bring to the simmer, and let steam about 6 hours. Warning: check the kettle now and then to be sure the water hasn't boiled off!
  • Zabaione Sauce:
  • Whisk all the ingredients together for 1 minute in a saucepan. Then whisk over moderately low heat for 4 to 5 minutes, until the sauce becomes thick and warm to your finger-do not bring it to the simmer and scramble the eggs, but you must heat it enough for it to thicken. Serve warm or cold.
