Ha! I have a copy of Good Things in England, too. In it, there‘s a recipe for cooking HEDGEHOGS! Which is horrifying to me (they‘re so adorable!) yet fascinating.

My one Prime day purchase. I am not likely to cook any of these puddings, but I adore food history. It fascinates me. And this is just a gorgeous book.

In the Chamber of Secrets Aunt Petunia creates a pudding with red cherries and sugared violets. 😋
“Mrs. Cratchit entered—flushed, but smiling proudly—with the pudding, like a speckled cannon-ball, so hard and firm, blazing in half of half-a-quartern of ignited brandy, and bedight with Christmas holly stuck into the top.”
This is what I think of when I think of #puddings #marchmunchies @jenniferw88
#MarchMunchies #Puddings "...Pru inhaled deeply and spread her Waitrose goods out on the table--all the ingredients for Christmas pudding, that dense, intensely spiced, steamed cake she knew would cinch their family holiday." Pru, the 50-something MC of this cozy mystery series is an expert gardener & not bad at solving mysteries, but isn't much of a cook. Luckily she gets some help with the pudding in this book & with cooking lessons later on.
Did a young Newark socialite poison the #puddings she fed her little brother? Why did a healthy couple drop dead in their Brooklyn apartment? What‘s so bad about wood alcohol anyway? This macabre and disturbing but fascinating book explores such questions and more! Also, an administration that favors #politics over #science ... because surely that sort of thing doesn‘t happen these days. More in comments.
