Step by Step to Perfect British Puddings

Britain and Ireland are renowned for their delicious puddings. Follow these step by step instructions for making perfect puddings.
Spotted Dick Pudding
The name of this classic English pudding usually will raise a smile or look of abject horror which is why some prefer the less-well-known title of “Spotted Dog”. The spotted part refers to the raisins and currants in the dough and the word dick' is a colloquial word for pudding.
Treacle Tart
The perfect dessert for the sweet-toothed. Making the pastry for this tart is easy, but if you are in a hurry then use ready rolled but make sure it is sweet pastry.
