      Steamed and boiled puddings have formed the basic diet of country people in northern Europe for centuries.

      Steamed puddings, a favourite for winter, are both easy to make and delicious. Served with one of the sweet sauces (recipes 497 to 506) they make a filling and satisfying end to a meal.
