How to Make Cabinet Pudding — The Victorian Way English Heritage 2024-04-25 | Buy your copy of our 'Victorian Way' cookery book: http://bit.ly/2RPyrvQVisit Audley End House and Gardens for yourself: bit.ly/31K6expMrs Crocombe is back in the kitchen, today preparing a steamed pudding which makes use of stale sponge cake by freshening it up with preserved fruit. This dish is ideal for the "hungry months" between March and May when, in the Victorian period, there was little fresh produce available for many people. English Heritage is a charity that cares for over 400 historic buildings, monuments and sites. Find out how you can support our work here: http://bit.ly/38Cv9lAINGREDIENTSFor this recipe, you will need...• Dried of glacé cherries • Candied angelica • Candied peel and stem ginger • A 115g / 4oz sponge cake, which may be stale • 115g / 4oz amaretti biscuits or macaroons • 450ml / 16oz full fat milk or single cream • 85g / 3oz sugar • 5 small egg yolks and 2 whites • 55ml / 2oz brandy METHODYou will need a plain mould for this, to hold 1-2 UK pints. A pudding basin is ideal, but a charlotte mould also works. 1. Prepare your decoration by slicing the ginger into rounds (or stamping into shapes), cutting the angelica to fit your mould and cutting the peel, if using, as suits. 2. Slice your sponge cake to fit the mould as well. 3. Next, prepare a custard by heating the milk in a pan with the sugar and flavourings and pouring it onto the lightly beaten eggs. Put this back into the pan and cook over a low heat until it thickens slightly. Do not scramble the eggs! Alternatively, if you are an unconfident custard maker, put all of the custard ingredients into a pan along with the cornflour, and heat, whisking or stirring with a spatula, until it thickens. 4. Add the brandy and set aside to cool (if it is a warm day, stand the pan in some cold water to speed things along)5. Grease your mould very well. Now decorate with your prepared candied items, sticking everything firmly into the butter but ensuring that your decoration only comes ¾ of the way up the sides. 6. Carefully place a layer of sponge cake in the bottom of the mould, on top of the decoration, pressing firmly. Now add a layer of biscuits, then cake, then biscuits, and repeat until the mould is ¾ full. Press well. 7. Carefully pour in the hopefully fairly cool custard and allow it to seep to the bottom of the mould, adding more gradually until the mould is full. Put a greased piece of paper on top, then tie on a pudding cloth to keep in in place (you can also use a saucer). 8. Lower the basin into a pan of boiling water, which should come about 2/3 way up the mould. Put a lid on the pan and steam for around an hour, keeping the water at a gentle simmer rather than a rolling boil. 9. Remove from the water when done and turn out. Serve with wine sauce, if wanted – though the pudding should be moist enough on its own.SUBSCRIBE TO OUR CHANNEL: goo.gl/c5lVBJFIND A PLACE TO VISIT: goo.gl/86w2F6FOLLOW US ON TIKTOK: bit.ly/3LPAF96LIKE US ON FACEBOOK: bit.ly/3MevLDNFOLLOW US ON TWITTER: bit.ly/3pvFv3yFOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM: bit.ly/3Balkei

How to Make Furmenty - The Victorian Way English Heritage 2024-03-27 | Buy your copy of our 'Victorian Way' cookery book: http://bit.ly/2RPyrvQVisit Audley End House and Gardens for yourself: bit.ly/31K6expMrs Crocombe is back in the kitchen, preparing a warming spiced dish for Easter. Furmenty – sometimes called frumenty — is similar in some ways to porridge, comprising grain, milk or cream, currants and spices. It’s thought to date back to Medieval times and was eaten byrich and poor alike.English Heritage is a charity that cares for over 400 historic buildings, monuments and sites. Find out how you can support our work here: http://bit.ly/38Cv9lAINGREDIENTSFor this recipe, you will need...● 500g / 1lb wheat grain● 1.2L / 2 pints full fat milk or cream● 2 tsp mixed spices, cinnamon or sweet spices● 1 tsp ground nutmeg or mace● 100-150g / 4-6oz currants or raisings, plumped in hot water or wine/spirits● 2 eggs● Sugar, to serveMETHOD● Prepare the wheat grain according to the packet – this may well involve overnight soaking. Cook it in water until very soft (generally 45-60mn, or 15-20mn if using a pressure cooker, unless it is quick-cook). You can set it aside, covered, in a fridge, at this stage and do the rest up to three days later.● When you are ready to cook the frumenty proper, put the grain and milk in a pan and heat them until the wheat is hot through. Whether you use double (heavy) cream or milk depends on how liquid you want the result to be.● Add the spice, fruit, ensure it is heated through.● Briefly beat the eggs and add in – off the heat if you like a just-cooked result, or on it if you prefer your eggs scrambled.● Serve with sugar to sprinkle on top.Note: In the UK chickens are treated against salmonella. If you are in a country where this is not the case, it is best to heat your eggs until cooked to be on the safe side.SUBSCRIBE TO OUR CHANNEL: goo.gl/c5lVBJFIND A PLACE TO VISIT: goo.gl/86w2F6FOLLOW US ON TIKTOK: bit.ly/3LPAF96LIKE US ON FACEBOOK: bit.ly/3MevLDNFOLLOW US ON TWITTER: bit.ly/3pvFv3yFOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM: bit.ly/3Balkei
