which country does suet come from
I have a family recipe for Plum Pudding that goes back several generations and I have always substituted Crisco for the suet with no problems.
from the UK
England.
A rich boiled or steamed pudding made with flour, suet, raisins, currants, citron, and spices.
Yes it is really a type of pudding. It is a steamed suet pudding that has dried fruit giving it a spotted appearance and is a standard part of English meals.
it came from a remote village in Thailand
Not quite sure,but i think its either France or England
Recipes for Christmas pudding usually call for suet. "Regular" fat or oil melts pretty easily (at low temperature). Suet, the solid fat from beef or mutton, won't melt until up around 70 degrees or so. The suet, which is used as a binder for the other ingredients, won't liquify and run all over at steaming and serving time. Bon appétit!
No...especially if you are making pudding, butter or shortening melt at a low temp and you will have a heavy, greasy result
pudding was accidentaly invented in 1859
A Bedfordshire clanger is a dish originating in the English county of Bedfordshire, which consists of an elongated suet pudding with meat in one side and jam in the other.
