PIRATE'S PLUM PUDDING

Pirate's Plum Pudding image

This recipe has been in my family since as long as I can remember. We have it every year for Christmas Dinner. The original recipe comes from the Welsh side of my family. It's a very black plum pudding in the oldest tradition. It has everything but the kitchen sink in it, as well as a lot of rum. It's rumoured there are pirates in the Welsh side of my ancestry, which might explain the rum. Start the puddings about 2 weeks before Christmas as it needs to age and mellow. Some people say you should start your pudding 3 months before, but I think that's a bit extreme. It makes two puddings, one for Christmas and one for New Years' Day. -- Yo, ho, ho, and a Merry Christmas!

Ingredients

2 cups mixed candied fruit
1 cup chopped mixed nuts (walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts)
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup currants
1 cup chopped dried fruit (dates, figs, dried cherries)
1 cup rum
1 teaspoon lemon peel
1 teaspoon orange peel
1 medium chopped peeled apple
1 carrot, peeled and shredded finely
1/2 lb suet
1 cup flour
2 cups fine breadcrumbs
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground mace
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 teaspoon ground allspice
3 eggs
1/4 cup fruit juice (orange is best)
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

The night before stirring up the pudding, combine the candied fruit, nuts, raisins, currants, dates, dates/dried fruits, lemon peel and orange peel.
Pour 1/2 cup rum over the top of the mixture. Cover and let it soak overnight.
Add apple, carrot, beef suet, flour, bread crumbs, brown sugar, soda, cinnamon, mace, cardamom, and allspice.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly.
Whisk together the eggs, fruit juice and 1/4 cup rum in a small bowl. Pour over the fruit/flour mixture, and mix lightly until all ingredients are moistened.
Spoon into two buttered pudding molds. Cover top of each pudding with buttered foil.
Cover top of each pudding mold with a cloth dish towel. Tie the cloth tightly to the top using a loop of kitchen twine.
Place puddings in steamers and steam for 6 hours.
Remove from steamers and store in a cool place until Christmas Day or New Years' Day.
Return the pudding to the steamer and steam for 2 hours more.
To make hard sauce, combined butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons rum to make a thick paste. Chill 1 hour.
Form the hard sauce into a two balls (one for each pudding) and wrap in waxed paper and store in refrigerator until ready to serve the pudding.
To serve the pudding, place the hard sauce ball on the pudding, and stick the holly sprig through it to anchor it to the top of the pudding.
Pour warm 2 tbsp rum over the pudding, and touch the surface with a lighted match to flame the pudding. Carry it flaming to the table while everyone cheers.

Tips:

Use ripe plums for the best flavor. If your plums are not ripe, you can roast them in the oven before using them in the pudding.
To make sure the pudding is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the pudding is done.
Serve the pudding warm or at room temperature. You can also chill it for a few hours before serving.
For a more decadent dessert, top the pudding with whipped cream or ice cream.
