Barnet,
My old Mum used to cook something she called--Bacon and Onion Roll. It was a suet base rolled out into a square and then lined with bacon and onions and rolled, then more bacon and onions so eventully it resembles a large swiss roll. This was then tied into a cloth a boiled until cooked, like a meat pudding. Served with mash and winter veg it tasted wonderful. This was a staple winter food for our houshold during the cold winters of the 60's

Well, you say that, but I don't think you've ever given me a Sticky Toffee Pudding....

What's Leek Pudding, vernon?

My mate at work got given one of those cookbooks you write all your own recipes into. The other day he said he'd discovered that his Mum had written his Auntie Margaret's Savoury Pudding in it. He hates Auntie Margaret's Savory Pudding....

(It's apparently eggs and breadcrumbs in a pastry case, baked....)

There's many variations of this north eastern delicacy but it's essentail a savoury suet pudding with leeks (and sometimes bacon) in it. Some variants are steamed and some are baked. My granny's was baked and served with a gravy made with onions and the juices from the roast. it had just the right degree of moistness under the oven baked crust and it was the highlight of the Sunday dinner for me. I keep intending to research the recipe(s) and try to recreate the pinnacle of north eastern cuisine.

Growing up in the NE, leek pudding was a staple. I hated it then and I've no desire to try it now.

A good steak & kidney pudding, on the other hand, with lashings of gravy, was a delicious treat.

Vegetarian suet has been around for years. As someone above posted, Atora do one, and it is in most supermarkets. The problem is, IIRC, as I haven't got a packet in the store cupboard to check, is that it is stuffed full of hydrogenated fat, which is distinctly not good for you. Indeed hydrogenated fat is seriously bad for your health.

I do, however, make the world's finest pease pudding, finest homecooked ham, and my own stottiecake.

They do rag puddings round here. They do them in the chippy but I've not had one yet.

We were talking about this at the weekend and suet was very, very rarely used in our house if at all.

Interesting recipe for chitterlings and hogs maws from the liver pudding link earlier. Pigs intestines, apparently available in 10lb buckets. Yum!
