SYRUP SUET PUDDING

Categories     Cake     Fruit     Dessert     Steam

Yield 8 People

Number Of Ingredients 5

12oz of self-raising flour
pinch salt
6 oz shredded beef suet (you can grate a frozen block)
Jam/golden syrup for filling, or filling of choice
Butter to grease pudding dish

Steps:

  • Sift the self-raising flour and salt into a large mixing bowl Add shredded suet and half the flour's quantity and mix it into the flour using the blade of a knife. When it's evenly blended, add a few drops of cold water and start to mix with the knife. continue adding drops of water until it begins to get really sticky and dough like. Bring it all together with your hands until you have a nice smooth elastic dough, which leaves the bowl clean. Suet pastry always needs more water, so if it is still a bit dry just go on adding water a few drops at a time. On a lightly floured surface, cut away a 1/4 of it for the lid. Roll out the remaining with a floured rolling pin, until you have a fairly thick circle about 13 inches in diameter. As long as you roll backwards and forwards, not side to side, it will roll out into a round shape. Line a greased, 2 pint pudding basin with the pastry. You need to press the pastry into the bowl, pressing it well all around and reinforcing any thin areas, especially at the bottom. Add the filling of your choice then roll out the pastry lid, dampen its edges and put it in position on the pudding. Seal well (egg yolk if you wish), then cover with a double sheet of foil, pleated in the centre to allow room for expansion while cooking. Tie it with string to make a handle so that you can lift it out. in a large pan of boiling water going half way up the Basin. Steam for 5 hours over a low heat, top up water when needed.

Tips:

  • Choose the right suet: Fresh suet is best for making syrup suet pudding, but if you can't find it, you can use shredded suet from the supermarket. If using fresh suet, be sure to remove any skin or sinew before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the pudding tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Steam the pudding for at least 2 hours: Steaming is the best way to cook syrup suet pudding. It ensures that the pudding cooks evenly and doesn't dry out.
  • Serve the pudding hot or cold: Syrup suet pudding can be served hot or cold. If serving it hot, spoon some of the hot syrup over the pudding.

Conclusion:

Syrup suet pudding is a classic British dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its rich, sticky syrup and light, fluffy texture, it's the perfect comfort food for a cold winter day. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy dessert, give syrup suet pudding a try.
