We just got back from having Christmas dinner with an English woman who fixed us English food. Talk about bland. Never again. I also found out that Yorkshire pudding is not a pudding.
I've been eating Christmas Pudding from the local British Emporium: it's very rich, completely unexpected considering it was invented by the bloody British.

Pudding in TX is chocolate, vanilla, tapioca, banana; and that's about it.

My Uncle Willard in Chicago married an English woman, so I know what Yorkshire pudding is for sure. He was in the Army during WW II and met her there. He was supposed to be in the D-Day invasion, but was sick and could not go. He married her and brought her over here. They had four kids, two of whom are in Florida, and two still in Chicago.

My original Christmas pudding is based on a traditional recipe that includes 13 core ingredients, which represent Jesus and his 12 apostles.
I travel the globe to select the very finest spirits, vine fruits and seasonal spices, from a stout that is brewed right here in The Peak District to succulent sultanas and currants from Turkey and Greece.
The result is a beautifully moist and fruity Christmas pudding that truly captures the traditional taste of the festive season.
