The Philosophy of Puddings

Everyone has their favourite pudding (who can’t resist jam roly-poly, Christmas pudding and brandy butter, or Yorkshire pudding with onion gravy?) but what is a pudding? Writer, chef, and food historian Neil Buttery traces the long history of the pudding from its humble beginnings as a savoury meal boiled in a cloth or animal intestine, to its importance in British language and culture. In this fascinating story of a culinary staple, Buttery shares his extensive knowledge while testing centuries old recipes in his “Pud Club”.
