Pass the custard! Looks good, isn’t the word ‘pudding’ great too you expect something substantial. Love to hear about old cook books too, thanks for sharing.

Sounds like a fun event to go to. Can’t believe they used to use MORE sugar!
The pudding looks gorgeous!

I like the first part of your sharing on recipes have come a long way from where all that started. I too have learned to reduce sugar in my desserts and yes, we like it that way. Wonderful pudding and I love the pics with the fruit, that contrast of colors are breathtaking.

I wouldn't have guessed that they used so much sugar back then. I wonder if it was so unrefined that it just wasn't as sweet as it is now.

I'm curious too as to how the cookbook deals with cooking times since not many of the people would have had clocks. The three-hour water bath gives a good clue of that though, huh. :)

Thanks for sharing this amazing cookbook and that wonderful pudding with us. I can't wait for more.

This looks gorgeous! I always love finding out about ancient recipes – some things were so different, and some never change 🙂 I’d love to give this a try, the blackberries are a wonderful contrast to the light pudding, too. 🙂
