GRAMMY BILLINGS STEAMED CHRISTMAS PUDDING WITH SHERRY SAUCE
This recipe goes back for many, many years. Grammy made this every Christmas and everyone loved it. It is easy to make as it doesn't have a lot of strange ingredients. It is served with a Sherry Sauce that is out of this world. It makes the pudding. FUNNY STORY---Our family does not drink anything with alcohol in it. My grammy was a stickler for this, but when it came to her hard sauce for the pudding, she reached for the bottle of sherry. When grammy needed a new bottle (which wasn't very often) she would go down to the "package store" (this what they called them then) and when she got near the store she would walk a little slower. After looking every way, to make sure that no one saw her, she would pop into the store to buy the sherry. Then she would do the same thing when she came out. She would rather have died than someone see her in a "package store". At any rate, everyone loved her Christmas Pudding and Sherry Sauce. She always made it with suet but I guess it could be made with any fat---butter, crisco, etc. I have hesitated to post this because of the fact that we don't drink, but we do like this and I wanted to save it with all my other recipes for my kids. I hope you will enjoy it, too.

Steps:
- Butter a 1.2-litre pudding basin, then press a disc of baking parchment into the base. Heat 4cm water in a heavy-based pan and add a trivet or upturned bowl or saucer to the base.
- Sieve the flour, baking powder and bicarb into a large bowl. Add the breadcrumbs, ginger, allspice, cinnamon and ½ tsp fine salt and stir everything together. Wrap the end of the frozen butter in foil and, holding it by the foil end, coarsely grate the butter into the dry ingredients. Unwrap and discard the foil to grate the last piece. Fold everything together so the butter is evenly distributed. Mix in the stem ginger, eggs, treacle, sugar and milk. Spoon into the pudding basin, leaving a small gap for the sponge to rise, and cover with a disc of parchment. Seal the pudding basin with a tight-fitting lid or a double layer of foil, sealed tightly around the basin and tied with cook's string. Set on top of the trivet, cover with a lid and steam for 3 hrs, topping up with water so it doesn't boil dry.
- Pour the syrup into a shallow frying pan, bring to the boil and cook until the syrup is turning a deep golden brown. Quickly whisk in the rum and butter, then whisk in the cream and bubble for 2 mins. Gently tip the sponge pudding out of its basin and onto a serving plate. Pour over the rum sauce and serve with thick cream or vanilla ice cream, if you like.

DANISH RICE PUDDING WITH DRIED CHERRY SAUCE
Steps:
- Cook the rice, milk, and sugar in a heavy-bottomed 2-quart saucepan over medium heat until the rice is tender and the milk is absorbed, 30-40 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the almond extract, almonds, and sherry. Using a rubber spatula, scrape the pudding into a bowl and chill for at least 1 hour. Whip the cream in an electric mixer on high speed (or by hand) until soft peaks form and then get a little firmer, and fold into the chilled pudding. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve. Top with warm or cold cherry sauce.
- Dried Cherry Sauce
- Place the cherries in a small saucepan with the wine, 1/2 cup water, and the sugar or jelly. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until the cherries are tender and the juice is syrupy (approximately 10 minutes).
GINGER CHERRY STEAMED PUDDING WITH SHERRY HARD SAUCE
Steps:
- For the pudding, butter a 2-quart souffle dish with a tightly fitting lid. Have ready a pot with a lid, large enough to hold the covered souffle dish and a rack that will fit in the bottom of the pot to allow water to circulate freely under the dish. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil.
- Meanwhile place the butter and the brown sugar in a mixing bowl and whisk until well blended. Whisk in the eggs. Gradually whisk in the molasses and the milk. Stir together the flour, ginger, soda and salt. Stir the dry ingredients into the liquid. Stir in the cherries and raisins. Scrape the batter into the buttered dish and smooth the top.
- Place the rack in the bottom of the pot. Cover the souffle dish and place it in the pot. Pour in enough of the boiling water to come halfway up the sides of the souffle dish. Cover the pot. Check occasionally to make sure there is enough water and that it is simmering; add boiling water to the pot if necessary. Steam the pudding until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Meanwhile to make the hard sauce, stir together the butter, sugar and salt until smooth. Slowly stir in the sherry. Chill, but do not allow to become too firm. Carefully remove the pudding from the pot and place on a rack. Uncover and let stand for 10 minutes. Use a small, sharp knife to loosen the pudding from the sides of the dish and unmold. Cut into wedges and serve warm with the hard sauce.

Tips:
- Use a quality ginger preserve. This will give your pudding the best flavor.
- Don't over-steam the pudding. Otherwise, it will become dry and crumbly.
- Let the pudding cool completely before serving. This will help it set and develop its full flavor.
- Serve the pudding with a dollop of sherry hard sauce. This is the perfect way to balance the sweetness of the pudding.
Conclusion:
Ginger cherry steamed pudding with sherry hard sauce is a delicious and festive dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
