Leave the greaseproof paper in position,but when the pudding is cool,cover with a fresh piece of foil or cloth before storing.

Member # 772 posted                       Limey, Can I ask a couple of questions..??? If someone were to go to make this pudding, where would they go to get the suet?? A. Grocery store? B. Can they substitute anything instead of the suet if they couldn't find suet in their area?? Just curious.. Also, What are Saltana's Weezie bbbbbbbbb Weezie Don't forget to be kind to strangers.

Member # 772 posted                       Limey, To be honest, I was thinking the type of suet, like my mom fed the bird's in the winter time. Thought a lard or something could be substituted! I didn't know!!! And you got it, meat!!!! The raisin's sound ok!! What would happen if you left the suet out?? Consistancey not the same?? Or does it solidify up with that stuff?? Just curious!!
