[Sca-cooks] plum pudding

[Mary Morman]

gentle friends,
i am cooking a 12th night feast with an Elizabethan theme and intend to 
serve a flaming plum pudding to high table.  i realize that this is not 
precisely in period, and will be sure to tell people that, but i'm going 
to do it anyway.  can someone help me with EXACTLY how out of period it 
will be?  i'm remembering Laura Mason's talk at the Leeds Conference on 
Food two years ago, and thinking that I'm "prevericating" by probably 
less than a hundred years.
