How does the magazine recipy differ?

Ingredient wise, the Woman's Own book one is:

4oz breadcrumbs
2lb cooking apples
2oz brown sugar
butter (doesn't say how much)
juice and rind of one lemon
2 tbs syrup
t tbs water

The ingredients from the Cooking Explained (1969) are:

1lb cooking apples
3oz breadcrunbs
1oz brown sugar
2 tbs golden syrup
1 tbs water
rind and juice of half a lemon

The Woman's Own one says serves 4-6, the other one says serves 4.

Thanks again

I don't remember any syrup - but it will be fun trying the recipies out.

There's only me here though, I'll have to try them one at a time!

cheers

Hi, im hoping someone can help me to identify a pudding i used to have at school, i have no idea what it was called and all i can remember is that it was sort of oaty with a drizzle of icing on top and it was served with custard (and very yummy!!) i know its a long shot but does anyone have any idea what it is??!! lol

wiggleywoo

1 1/2 oz Cornflour
7oz granulated sugar
1/2 pt water
Vanilla essence

7oz Marg

Method:-
Place Cornflour, sugar & water into a pan, mix well - heat over a low heat stirring all the time - do this until it resembles thick custard. Leave to go cold.
Cream marg with an electric whisk. Gradually whisk in the cold Cornflour mix adding vanilla essence at the end to taste......you will have to whisk for about 10 min's. The cream thickens up when piped onto dessert and left in fridge.

It has taken me several days, but I got to the end of this thread.

My recipe folder is now overflowing and I have a chocolate crunch cake cooling too. The banana cake I stopped reading to make was scrummy as well.

I am off to the shops to top up on raspberry flavouring now!

Thank you all for a great read.

If you manage to find some can you let me know what make it is - I've been looking for months but haven't found any yet.
