What is Christmas Pudding?
Christmas pudding is a type of pudding traditionally served as part of the Christmas dinner in the UK, Ireland and in other countries where it has been brought by British emigrants. It has its origins in medieval England, and is sometimes known as plum pudding or just “pud”,though this can also refer to other kinds of boiled pudding involving dried fruit. Despite the name “plum pudding,” the pudding contains no actual plums due to the pre-Victorian use of the word “plums” as a term for raisins.The pudding is composed of many dried fruits held together by egg and suet, sometimes moistened by treacle or molasses and flavoured with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, and other spices. The pudding is usually aged for a month or more,or even a year; the high alcohol content of the pudding prevents it from spoiling during this time.

How to Light Christmas Pudding (Video)
Place pudding over a heat safe plate. Take a small sauce pan, add some alcohol in it. I used rum. You can use vodka for longer burning, since vodka has higher alcohol content. Once the liquor gets hot. Light fire over it using a lighter. Pour the alcohol over the pudding slowly. Enjoy the magical moment.
Pin The tradiational way of making christmas pudding is. the mixture is placed in several layers of pudding cloth and boiled in lots of water. A huge amount of alcohol is added which prevents it from getting spoiled. The pudding will be made weeks before and then it is re-steamed to make it soft. Then when the time of serving, the pudding is placed in a heat safe pan and rum or any alcohol is poured over it and is flamed. Then it is served with rum butter or icecream or cream.
