Xmas Plum Pudding, 1

From Cookery for every household, 1914

Serves 24

Before serving the pudding, pour a wine-glassful of brandy round the base, and set a light to it just before putting it on the table. The dish must be hot and perfectly dry, or the brandy will not burn well. A little grated orange rind and juice may be added to the above mixture. Remains of cold plum pudding are very good cut in slices and fried.
