What each ingredient does
- Suet
- Adds richness and a tender, moist crumb as it melts during the long boil.
The step that matters
Tie the pudding loosely. The pudding swells as it cooks, so a tight wrapping can restrict expansion and make the pudding dense or split. Leaving room lets it rise and cook evenly during the five-hour boil.
