What a wonderful last 20 minutes of my time on a Friday afternoon starring my two favourite (respectfully) beautiful American ladies Dara and Christa.😍 Personally I could eat all of those, and the coconut one was my favourite. These little vlogs every Friday make my heart happy, and honestly you should have many, many more subscribers, if only more people knew of your channel. Have a nice weekend, Dara, Ian & Christa!

Seven puddings? 😱 Childs play says Christa! I could probably do seven savoury puddings.. black pudding, suet pudding, etc. lovely Cotswolds. Do not talk about pudding club! Id have to tap out at the second pudding I think! Unless they alternated sweet and savoury. Sherry Triffle? Bread and Butter taken off the menu! Good mixture of hot and cold puds. Sticky Toffee Pudding brought in by style. Like the dishes. The summer pudding would get my vote I think. We do eat a lot of berries so that would be our favourite. Do love Rhubarb too, seems harder to come by nowadays. The rode mic doing a great job muting that background chatter.great drone footage Ian. Id definitely be having a sleep after all that sugar!

A Summer Pudding is quite large and will serve many people but you can easily make it for 2 or 4 people by putting the fruit filling between 2 slices of crustless white bread like a sandwich, wrap with clingfilm. Press it down with weights such as tins of beans. You need to hold it in a container the same shape and size of the bread slices so it can set in a nice shape. Cut it into triangles

@JacknVictor Ай бұрын

Great video and that pudding club looked like fun! In regards to chocolate mousse, I would say you were wrong about the chocolate mousse not being a traditional British dessert as it is very common here, it's been around forever, and I have my great grandmothers handwritten recipe book that had it's first recipes written in to it in 1879, and towards the back of it it has a few chocolate recipes including chocolate mousse, and although she didn't date her individual recipes, my great grandmother passed away in 1923 so it was written down between 1879 - 1923 sometime. Incidentally, there's a recipe for 'biscuits with broken chocolate pieces' in my great grandmothers recipe book, it's in the chocolate section, that are basically chocolate chip cookies as we would know them nowadays, which supposedly weren't invented until the 1930s, so either she had a time machine and came forward ten years or so after she died, or she -and possibly others- were making them a lot earlier than the stated invention time. But getting back to chocolate mousse, it's probably not made from scratch in most homes any more in the UK, more likely it will come from a ready made yogurt-type pot, or made from a packet like angel delight or instant whip. There is also an aerosol can similar to whipped cream that you can buy, but chocolate flavoured, and that is very much the same as the yogurt pot type mousse, aswell as frozen chocolate mousse. All of which are very different to the real thing, and the fact people don't really make stuff from scratch as much anymore means they are missing out! These pudding clubs are a good thing, they introduce people to new desserts that they might never have tried, plus the old favourites that a lot of people might remember from childhood etc. There isn't a pudding club as such bear me, but there are a lot of dessert only places, and also my family and friends will sometimes have our own, when we have a get-together, and everyone will make a different pudding to bring (pre arranged so nobody brings the same) and then we all just talk and eat all night until we are all full to the brim, and feel very sick, and overly full of carbs and sugar!

@MagentaOtterTravels Ай бұрын

I understand that overly full feeling, accompanied by a sugar headache! Lol Thank you so much for sharing the information about your grandmother's recipes. A fascinating personal story as well as some interesting culinary history! As Americans, we are led to believe that tollhouse cookies were the first chocolate chip cookies 😉. I always assumed chocolate mousse originated in France because the name sounds French to me. Whoever invented it, it's great stuff! Next Tuesday we are going to Belgium. The country that claims to have invented "French" fries! Lol😂

@JacknVictor Ай бұрын

@@MagentaOtterTravels I have the added compilation of type 2 diabetes to go with it lol, but most of the desserts we all make, we take this in to account as a few of us are diabetic or other dietary needs, and will use sugar alternatives, honey etc with very minimal sugar where possible, unless it's something like sticky toffee pudding where the sponge will be made with a sugar free sweetener but the toffee sauce will obviously contain sugar. With type 2 you don't have to fully cut out sugar, just reduce your intake to a minimum, having it occasionally. Also with my diabetes, my sugar levels are more often too low rather than too high, it's only ever been high twice in 4 years, and even then it wasn't really high, just slightly higher than normal, so when we have these pudding nights, it can help bring my sugar levels to a normal level. My body tells me if I've had enough and when to stop. Since becoming diabetic, overly sweet things don't appeal to me, I don't like the taste of anything too sweet anymore such as, things like milk chocolate especially cheaper brands. I like dark chocolate, the higher the cocoa content the better, and I only need one small square and that will tide me over for 3 or 4 days. I make all my own cakes, biscuits, donuts and other sweets treats at home with low carb and carb free flour, and use sweetener like canderel instead of sugar, adding dark chocolate or dried fruit, nuts etc, and that way if I fancy something sweet, I can have it without worrying about. But every few months we will have the pudding night and I'll eat the lot! Lol Yeah chocolate mousse could possibly be a french invention, but even if it was, it was probably adopted in Britain very quickly seeing as how chocolate bars were first invented and sold here making anything chocolate a very popular thing. Edit - I just checked on Google, it says that the famous french painter, Henri Toulouse-Lautrec, invented in the late 19th century (around the time my great gran started writing her recipe book!) and he calmed it 'mayonnaise de chocolat'. Also, with the chicken chips cookies, it would be silly to think that nobody had put broken pieces of chocolate in to a biscuit/cookie before a commercial company decided to sell them. At some point, most things have been tried by home cooks experimenting with what they have to hand. I know I do. One of the best ways to cook is throw whatever you have got in to the mix and see what comes out! Lol. I must say that I'm enjoying your videos, your hard work doesn't go unappreciated!

Is banoffee pie a pudding? And someone should tell The Pudding Club that there are two M's in summer pudding. :-)

When l glanced the title l did a double take l'm sure the comments will have explained. We went out for a meal a few weeks ago and the dessert or pudding was one of everything on the menu , just smaller portions. One l particularly enjoyed was rhubarb cooked in ginger syrup no other sugar. It had a crumble top and a blob of clotted cream. Why are my clothes shrinking l have no idea.

Disappointing they didn't give you fresh plates each time it's all about presentation treating you like royalty that's not right and you should except small portions you should have the choice how much you want to be honest on your experience I wouldn't go as I think it's about an experience and they sadly lack so much especially the plate issue what's that about but I feel they let you down massively with so much ..but lovely people northern people totally different

The portions are smaller because you are there to eat multiple puddings. When we went once all tables had a chance to try all seven, you could go up as many times as you like. My friend starves himself in preparation, as he only goes every few years, and will have more than a dozen helpings.
