monkfish's pudding emporium

[mf]

ok listen up because im only gonna post this once. this is your a-z of puddings, if youre getting lost in all the pudding chat then just bookmark this document and use it as a reference. im not gonna cover the esoteric stuff but the goal is to get you up to speed on the essentials. lets get cracking

name	tasting notes	collateral materials
black/blood	coagulated pigs blood. sounds gross, tastes great. dont knock it til youve tried it
sticky toffee	does what it says on the name of the pudding. just look at this shit. this is the shit right here.
yorkshire	on the face of it, just some kind of puffy flour thing. however! a vital ingredient of a proper roast dinner. dont be put off by the name, you dont have to be a philistine to enjoy this pudding
bread and butter	ok yes this doesnt show british cuisine in the best light. its bread and butter with ... ?? egg and nutmeg and raisins i think. not sure. if you get involved in a bread and butter pudding conversation just look it up on wikipedia im not gonna be much help
christmas	known also as "the devils pudding". nothing good comes of this pudding. avoid
rice	really scraping the bottom of the barrel now. christ. and you thought 'bread' was a bland base for a dessert (yes its a dessert)

this concludes my comprehensive guide to puddings. contributions and corrections welcome

gonna fight the humble rice pudding's corner and say that yes, it's kinda bland on its own but sometimes a dish needs a bit of makeup to look pretty

Both bread and butter pudding and rice pudding are great lol they’re two of my fave desserts

Monkfish I just noticed u forgot the superior sasusage-shaped pudding: white pudding.

For pure bliss, simply shallow fry in salted butter (you can’t use too much—I normally use 1/4–1/3 of a 250g brick) with some Irish* pork sausages and bacon to let it absorb the salty flavour of the pork and serve boxty (also fried in butter), baked beans, and whatever other fry-up food you fancy

*Irish sausages are the best in the world when shallow fried don’t @ me

Tapioca pudding: Looks like water-logged packing material but that would probably tastes better. Absolutely fucked.

Bread pudding: Had some in the UK and like everything in that country it tasted like I just kissed a royal's soggy ass. The Argentinean variation "Boudin de Pan" however is amazing. As always Latin America's only good cultural contributions to the world are food.

Figgy pudding: Never actually had it but I've always wanted to burn my house down trying to flambe something A tier.

Creme caramel: Japanese call it pudding so I'm counting it. Good taste but has the consistency of fucking cyst. Just eat its components. B tier.

 

[mf]

not a tier list but thank you for your valued contributions, figgy pudding in particular was a glaring omission given its prominence at certain times of year

ill allow the japanese pudding and also proffer the chocolate ,,american'' pudding that pre keeps relentlessly pestering me to add
