My 1st try of parkin turned out like a brick you use on a window, your recipe young lady seems more up my alley. Gonna try this in November like when my granny made in the 50s 👍 75+🍁 hunter Yorkshire expat. Thank you 🐻
Thank you so much for this nostalgic recipe from my homeland! I love the steel cut oat crunchiness and all the spices. Other recips don't have that crunch and with just ginger added, they are so bland.
I live in the States so cups have become a standard measurement:) I have had the same request from some of my other UK and European viewers (as well as family and friends!) who use the metric system. I am looking at adding that information in the future but in the meantime, there are many reliable conversion tables online. Here is one that I have used many times: www.thecalculatorsite.com/cooking/cooking-calculator.php Hope this helps😊
Very good recipe. I just finished eating a batch I made using your recipe. It definitely benefits from and needs to sit for AT LEAST 3 days for the flavors and texture to meld. I have a bit more of a sweet tooth, so I am going to double the amount of sugar in the next batch, although I can see where the amount of sweetness in this recipe might be perfect for someone who doesn't like things as sweet. I live in a small town, so getting some of the more "exotic" ingredients, such as steel cut oats, just aren't available locally, so I just used regular Quaker oats, and it came out great. I also can't get the treacle here in rural Oregon, so I used Molasses, as suggested. For the edge pieces that got a little more done, I enjoyed placing a square of Parkin in a bowl, heating it in the microwave for 10 seconds and having some scoops of vanilla ice cream over it. Thanks for making this video. This dessert is going on the permanent rotation!
Hello Gumy, so glad you are enjoying the recipes. You may substitute with rolled oats although the texture will be less gritty. I would suggest that you blitz the oats in a food processor for a couple of seconds before adding. Hope this helps😊
To answer your question, you can store the cake at room temperature. I store mine in my pantry where the temperature is steady and doesn't fluctuate (like the kitchen). Hope this helps! Thank you for watching😍
Great video. I made Parkin this morning - my Grandma made the best Parkin - I think that's why I love it so much. How long have you lived in the states? You've not lost your English accent 😀. I bought some corn syrup from Walmart the last time we went on holiday in the states and my suitcase was searched at the airport 🤦♀️....I never thought about it looking 'sinister'....! Your Parkin looks delicious x
Glad to hear you enjoy making Parkin at home. I always wish it was easier to get ingredients like golden syrup here in the States…I have to improvise much of the time. I’ve been in North America for over 10 years now and my old accent isn’t going anywhere…I watch too many British tv shows to lose it😂 Thanks for watching
@@SususCookbook 😀. Aw, I hope it becomes easier for you to buy golden syrup 🤞. I'm glad that you're able to improvise for now. How lovely - I'm glad that you're not losing your accent - watching tv shows is a great way to stay connected to the UK. I have old school friends who moved to the states or to Canada and it's been over 25 years and they haven't lost their English accent. I'll check out more of your videos soon. Kind regards x
You can use any oats mate or porridge oats or I even took raisins out of muesli and uses that and I didn't have a blender so I just put them as they were and it's a tiny bit crunchy qnd chewy which is really nice and a bit different adds character. Can you tell me a traditional Colombian desert I can make? Peace out 1 love Colombia
@@ANiMALFRiENDS_GOLDMAN I also use muesli but I don't take anything out of it, indeed I also add an extra handful of sultanas and a tablespoon of cocoa. Lovely! Edit: add a couple more tbls of milk to compensate.

@@SususCookbookBut you sound English and should know that most of the rest of the world uses metric weights and measures. You are putting text on screen, give the conversions there, and give your channel wider appeal.
Why? Why? Why? are you using American measurements. There is no such thing as a standard cup. I’ve got 5 and they all weigh out differently. Surely a fantastic recipe like this should be in imperial or metric measurements.
thank you for putting weighted measurements in the description bar because I don't use cup measurements

Hi Rachel, so glad you enjoyed this recipe video! It's a perfect cake for the winter months. Thanks for watching😊

So glad you enjoyed the recipe, and you made it work with the ingredients that were available to you. Thanks for taking the time out to comment😊
I love Parkin I think it’s the best cake in this world ❤
There's recipes now to make golden syrup thank goodness...
Hello greetings from COLOMBIA, I love your recipes. I have a question for you, can I use oats instead of steel cut oats? Thanks a lot.

Yes you can. I can't get steel cut oats in my small rural tow, so I just used Quaker oats, and it came out great!
Great video! Do we store it in fridge for 3-4 days until it matures and becomes sticky or in room temperature?

Thank you. I love spicy sweet desserts. My family just likes chocolate. I’m sick of chocolate
Thanks for watching😊

Sorry me again, I haven’t see here in Colombia the steel cut oats.
They are known as Irish oats or coarse oatmeal in some parts of the world if that helps.

Why put the recipe in American units??
I live in the States, so cups are a standard measurement here. There are many sites that provide conversion tables. This is one I use quite often. You may find this helpful too:
