This recipe also figures prominently in Jack Aubrey's seafaring diet.
I'll bet the heart doctors love this one.
Ingredients per Serving:
- 1 ounce of flour
- 1 ounce of raisins
- 1 ounce of finely chopped suet
(or oil, butter, lard or other shortening)
- 1 ounce (2 Tbsp) of water
- If you live in the 21st
Century, add 1 tsp sugar and some cinnamon
Steps for Preparation:
- Mix all ingredients together
in large bowl. Dough should be softish, but not runny
- Put dough on center of clean
cloth, big enough to wrap the dough.
- Wrap or tie the cloth around
the dough
- Steam the dough on a trivet in
a covered pan containing some water, or a pudding basin, for 2-3 hours
- Cut into wedges, and serve
warm, with hot custard (AKA thin vanilla pudding), cream, sugar, or in the
old days pour some rum over it.
