My First attempt at making figgy duff, a boiled pudding, from Newfoudland, based on Spotted dick, British raisin pudding, Clootie dumpling, Scottish Traditional Pudding, and the Western version, Poutchine au sac, Métis bag pudding from Western Canada. Also: figgy pudding,christmas pudding...
Traditionally served with a jiggs dinner, ( boiled dinner or cooked dinner, is a traditional meal commonly prepared and eaten on Sundays in many regions around the Atlantic provinces)
I made a traditional rum butter sauce, for Christmas this year. It was amazing, and soooo good. I didnt have a pudding bag, so i used cheesecloth. U can use cans with foil cover, or any cottony cloth, old sheets, pillowcases, would work.
I looked at a few different recipes, and this is the winning one:
