Cómo preparar 7 Cup Steamed Christmas Pudding With Butterscotch Sauce
- **Prepare the Pudding:** In a large mixing bowl, combine 6 cups of mixed dried fruits (see ingredients for specifics), nuts (if using), mixed spice (1 tsp), ground cinnamon (1/2 tsp), ground nutmeg (1/4 tsp), and grated zest of 1 orange.
- Pour in 1 cup of milk and 2 large eggs. Stir until well combined.
- Pour the mixture into a 5-liter greased pudding bowl.
- Cover the bowl tightly with two layers of buttered aluminum foil, creating a pleat in the center to allow for expansion during steaming.
- Secure the foil with string. Place the bowl in a steamer or large pot with enough gently simmering water to reach halfway up the sides of the bowl.
- Steam for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, covered with a lid, checking and topping up the water level regularly.
- **Make Ahead (Optional):** If preparing in advance, remove the foil once cooled slightly. Wrap in plastic wrap, then a fresh layer of foil. Refrigerate for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight before serving.
- **Serve:** If serving immediately, carefully unwrap and invert the pudding onto a serving plate.
- **Prepare the Butterscotch Sauce:** In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of brown sugar, 1/2 cup of butter, 1/2 cup of heavy cream, and a pinch of salt.
- Bring to a slow boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves and the sauce turns into a light caramel color and thickens slightly (2-3 minutes).
- Remove from heat and pour over the warm pudding.
- Garnish with whole mixed nuts (optional) and serve with fresh cream or brandy custard.
