    Just a tip, my mum did then regular, the cloth was thicker, and the suet, was thicker, so I think that's the key, just do what it doing ,but thicker, then they will hold better, I am starving now wowxxx

    Hi, just for info. My mum used to make Rag Pudding when I was a kid in 70s&80s.
    She also used mince and onion, and tied the cheesecloth with string at both ends and somehow made a handle in the middle so she could get then out.
    She steamed it in the pressure cooker I think for an hour or so. What was actually nice (for me anyway) was that the pastry was quite damp.. but it's what I was used to so I still like them like that

    Keith we'd use bowl for mold wrapping pastry up and over.tie a knot using dowel and it would hand in pot over steaming water.bowl wasn't used as it was only for molding.

    Fantastic Keith! Definitely look superior to a Hollands steak and kidney pudding. My husband is from Rochdale and he remembers his mum making rag puddings. She would wrap them in a hankie chief. He said his mum used mince and onion in hers. After all she had to cook for 4 blokes 3 sons and an husband so using steak would have been too expensive back then in the 70s/80s.

    I live in the middle of rural Thailand and had a go at this. No suet so I used frozen shortening, grated into the flour. No pudding basin so I used a plant pot. (not an orange one) It came out very, very good. I steamed the bugger for 3 long hours and ate it all by myself. My wife is Thai and won't eat "our" food.

    I'm probably as near to a rag pudding expert as you're going to get Keef, I'm born and bred in Oldham where the rag pudding was invented. Firstly in a traditional rag pud, you wouldn't find the herbs you added, ie thyme and bay leaves etc. You would add oxo to the mix though, with salt & pepper, also if doing it with mince, a good variation is doing a holy trinity of celery, carrot and onions with the meat. As a kid in Oldham my mum used to put carrots in. If doing it with whole meat as opposed to mince, diced skirt is a very popular option.
    When I was a lad, many chippies in Oldham did home made rag puddings, alas they are now a dying breed, however there's a company in Rochdale doing a huge trade in traditional style rag puds, google jacksons rag puddings,
    Finally, your suet dough was a bit too wet, flour your cloth to stop sticking and you do tie it with string, like a parcel, making a cross, one across the width and one across the length, you do that to make a firm parcel, this also results in what are known in Oldham as 'organ stops' amongst other names, these are the chunky, thick corners that the parcelling produces.

      @@Keefcooks You don't hear much about them outside Oldham, but amongst the people of a certain age there's still competition about who can and can't make them and who's are best lol. There are still people who keep pudding rags in a kitchen drawer, sometimes cut up pillowcases but men's proper 100% cotton hankies are king. The Jackson's company I mentioned are well worth a try, for a produced rag pudding they are pretty good. It's a bit if a niche dish which is a shame really as they are so bloody good, my mother actually weaned me on rag puddings chopped up from an old chip shop in Glodwick in Oldham owned by a guy called Leo who was a bit of a chippy legend in Oldham. The chip shop wholesalers are now stocking the Jackson's ones so they are spreading a bit. Have a look at this. www.lancashirelife.co.uk/food-drink/milnrow-rag-to-riches-story-1-1640755

    Great video as always Keef!
    I've got a suggestion/request: the infamous Ulster Fry! It has a few variations here in Northern Ireland (feel free to do some research) but my personal favourite is the following:
    -Deep-fried potato bread (1)
    -Deep-fried soda bread (1)
    -Fried back bacon (2)
    -Fried pork sausages (2)
    -Fried black pudding (1 medallion or 2 slices from pudding sausage)
    -Fried egg, sunnyside up (2)
    -Fried cherry tomatoes (or just a salad tomato cut in half; grilled is also acceptable)
    -Fried mushrooms
    Some people add baked beans, but I dislike them & prefer a generous dollop of brown sauce (HP all the way!).
    Would love to see you attempt this one; you shan't regret it! 😊

    My mum had a variation; she did not line her cooking "pots" with suet. I can't remember all the details but eventually she served up a sort of ramakin with a suet top. Easier to make & maybe a little healthier but the taste was to die for. Keef can I suggest you try it.

    • @Keefcooks
      @Keefcooks  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @Peter Owens You can suggest it but I won't do it because the very best bit about a pudding like this is the flavour of the filling is absorbed into the bottom and sides - tastes fantastic but doesn't make it too soggy.

    My way of making the filling (quicker and easier and less faff): fry onions and garlic, add cubed steak, fry to seal edges, add kidney, fry till no pinkness, make some Bisto gravy, pour in, add herbs and pepper (no salt cos already in), if mixture is too thin add a teaspoon of cornflour mixed into small amount of cold water, bring to boil for short time. That's it, no need for pressure cooker. Allow to cool to RT before filling into pastry cases. But...it might be better to use pressure cooker for the steaming stage - should give tastier results.

    I agree Keef, steak and kidney pudding is better when you pre cook the meat and gravy. You can get the best kidney gravy doing that (However, a darker colour is preferable for me). I also like the 'traditional' method that the purists say, but not as much. As for the rag pudding, noooooooo. You just made the same pudding 2 different shapes. I live very close to Oldham and Rag puddings don't tend to have any kidney in at all. They usually have mince, steak (or joined up meat as you put it) and a bit of gravy. Also, the suet pastry tends to be thinner than with the basin type, making it a much more melt in the mouth experience. Give it another go Keef, but you must try harder.

      Then there's the odd ones out like Treacle pudding - which is just this suet pastry steamed with treacle on the *outside* !
      Yep, it's all very confusing :)

      No this is all wrong, what we see here IS a real pudding, as is Yorkshire pudding, black pudding, and haggis, the sickly sweet shit yanks eat and call pudding, is god knows what, I think the closest is custard, which is not normally so sweet as that in the US..

    Oh dear you appear to be making a filling for a pie and not a pudding, steak,kidney, onion and water/stock plus seasoning to taste are put into a suet pastry and steamed for 4 hours until cooked, That's a proper Steak and kidney pudding.

      I did mention that alternative possibility. It's not the way I like my steak & kidney puddings, and I don't think it's the definitive way to do it. If there is such a thing. 😀

    Please, for those who devour your recipes containing kidney, and I have mentioned this before, cut the kidney in half from the top down and remove the pieces inside. Then place the kidney into ice-cold water for 30 minutes, changing at least once during that time. The function of the kidney is to filter and extract waste from the blood, balance body fluids, and form urine. The urine and residual tastes must be removed before cooking and/or eating. You can also make a roux which can be carefully mixed into the liquid, as you are aware or alternatively, make a slurry with baking powder and water which makes a glossy thick gravy. However, I know you will not do so as you would rather mock my attempts to educate you in some of the simple culinary skills you lack or are not familiar with, including the use of the back edge of the knife blade instead of the knife's cutting edge, for removing excess pastry when making pies and, tarts, and puddings, etc. It's called knocking-back. Then people, your "followers", tread you as the cook par excellent, sorry cannot use chef because you are not, especially as you seemingly get most of your recipes from the internet. You do serve a function though, trying to provide others with simple, nutritious, and easy to prepare, usually, recipes. Incidentally, in the old days, which I well remember, cheesecloth/muslin was not used for either pudding but old sheet linen, and that is where the term "rag pudding" came from. Steak and kidney pudding had a cloth spread over the top of the pudding which was then tied down before the cooking vessel was 1/2-3/4 submerged in water in the cooking pot and cooked for up to 4 hours. Don't forget, in Japan, it takes up to10 years to become a qualified Sushi/Sashimi chef.

      Look, I don't ask for your advice, but I don't always ignore it. You claim to be a clinical psychologist as well as a chef, in which case you should understand why I am lukewarm about your contributions. It stems from the way you first introduced yourself to my comments section, and your subsequent treatment of my pal Adam G. I have a good memory, and maybe I hold a grudge, and maybe that's a bad thing. Nevertheless, it's real. All I'm doing on this channel is preparing tasty food, and the recipes I use come from all over. A lot of people enjoy my work and for the life of me I can't see how that could be a bad thing. My suggestion to you, if you're so keen to share your knowledge, is to start your own TH-cam channel - I'll watch with interest.

      @@Keefcooks Yesterday was the Sabbath and so I could not reply. From sunset today, Sunday is the start of the Holy Days of the Feast of Tabernacles, which will be completed at sunset 21st October, so this is the only time I have to reply. After that I am making my last sojourn to work in Thailand then I will finally retire as I am to undergo a gallbladder operation as soon as I return to Canada in March. During the intervening months, I will have very limited access to a computer as I will be near Chiang Rai, northern Thailand and there is restricted internet available.
      At one point in time, I provided you with my full name. If you doubt the veracity of my claims, while I am away are at liberty and have my full permission to contact the governing bodies with which I am registered and investigate my credentials, they include the City and Guilds in London, England, the College of Psychologists of Ontario, the Canadian Association of Psychologists, and the Thai Psychological Association.
      Further, my youngest sister, who resides in Parbold, Lancashire, has my original Bachelor and Master Degrees, both issued by the University of Windsor, Ontario, Canada, but, for some unknown reason, she never received my Doctoral Degree which was issued by another university. Also, I have a Diploma in Micro-Computer Business Applications from Humber Community College, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, which was in my personal belongings that a friend was keeping for me. I was unaware she had died while I was out of Canada and my possessions were disposed of.
      No, you do not ask for my advice and yes, at 78 years of age I am sometimes aggressive and assertive when dealing with persons who make so many errors, some of which are downright dangerous when they deal with food. I have even admonished GR and JO, amongst others concerning errors they have made. What is aggravating is the number of people who use the internet to “show off their skills”, which often copy others (as an example look to see how many people make fried chicken - which incidentally travelled from Scotland to North America) and many are abysmal. I am not, and never have said that about your forays into the culinary arts just that you do make many errors, and those I point out and why. It is called constructive criticism.
      I am not seeking, nor want sympathy for my situation but I gave up being an active chef due to having undergone surgical procedures which limit me to what type of culinary consulting, teaching, and research I can do as I use an electric-motored personal mobility device to get around, especially outdoors. Therefore, you will be aware that my mobility is limited and as such, I no longer produce videos for public presentations. However, the operations gave me the opportunity to change my career and so I went into the field of psychology.
