Unique Christmas Pudding
The Christmas pudding can also trace its origins to a soupy gruel of the 14th century called 'frumenty'. This was usually made of beef and mutton with raisins, currants, prunes, wines and spices added as well. This was more of a meal consumed during the fasting in the run-up to the Christmas festivities.
Christmas pudding is also known as 'Plum Pudding' and is traditionally eaten in Britain and Ireland as a desert on Christmas day. Recipes vary from family to family and often are guarded as they handed down their prized recipes through the generations.
