Want to try something different for Christmas this year – then how about a traditional English figgy pudding which has its origins way back in the 16th century?
Figgy pudding is a dish that’s somewhat fallen out of favor on both sides of the pond in recent times. Mainly because it’s a very heavy pudding, has lots of ingredients, and is an acquired taste.
However, maybe this is the year you should try it for yourself, and this How To video will tell you all you need to know to prepare and bake a traditional figgy pudding for Christmas.
If I’m honest I avoid all puddings at Christmas. I enjoy the traditional roast too much to have room in my belly for something so filling. Even so, I am tempted, especially with the lashings of brandy involved.
