[Sca-cooks] a boiled pudding question

Tue Dec 29 17:37:40 PST 2009

I did a "Scottish luncheon" awhile back, in honor of our landed Nobles, one of the main attractions was a steamed sausage.  I used cheese cloth and it worked beautifully.  The cloth imprinted the sausages but if that is not a concern, I recommend it!

A votre service,

I have used fine cheese cloth, linin and a?potato ricer for this. Potato ricers are used to grind down potatos for lefse. Works nicely getting out the?extra liquid.

Subject: [Sca-cooks] a boiled pudding question

So I am working on the Ryce Pudding recipe from John Murrell's A new booke of Cookerie and I have a boiled pudding question:

A Ryce Pudding.

STeep it in faire water all night:
then boyle it in new Milke, and
draine out the Milke through a Cullinder:
mince beefe Suit handsomely, but
not too small, and put it into the Rice,
and parboyld Currins, yolkes of new
layd Egges, Nutmeg, Sinamon, Sugar,
and Barberryes: mingle all together:
wash your scoured guttes, and
stuffe them with the aforesaid pulp:
parboyle them, and let them coole.

I don't at the moment have sausage casings. Can I substitute a cloth or a mold instead?

Many thanks!

Margaret FitzWilliam

Been giving this some thought but I am away from my computer.

I'll send some notes when I get home. I think it really might be a fun  
feast.

I wanted to mention that now would be the time to acquire/grab/shop for
all those seasonal 12 days of christmas molds and pans while they are  
available
and possibly on sale.  I got one last year that makes shortbreads or  
chocolates.
12 by 9 pan makes the 12 days.... each about 1.5 inches by 1.5 inches.

Also they sometimes sell aprons, ornaments, glasses, plates, etc.

for lutefisk!!!

It's in the stores. Anyone who would like to sample this culinary delicacy 
and hasn't been able to do so due to the lack of proximity to MN, WI, the 
Dakotas, or any Scandinavian country, let me know and we can arrange 
something that involves FedEx. ;-)

Last time I looked, Ikea stores carried it in the freezer section.  God 
help us all.
