What is figgy pudding? You may have heard it in the popular Christmas song, “We Wish You a Merry Christmas”, but have you ever had it? Well, I’m telling you it’s a delightful traditional pudding that can complete your Christmas dinner. Figgy pudding is also commonly known as Christmas pudding.
“The pudding is composed of many dried fruits held together by egg and suet, sometimes moistened by treacle or molasses and flavored with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, and other spices. The pudding can be aged for a month, months, or even a year; the high alcohol content of the pudding prevents it from spoiling during this time.” [wikipedia]
