[binturong1000]

@expervillage Could you go on my profile and send me a message so I could get that all settled up?

It looks nice and very unusual! But I didn't understand some parts. What's shortening? It looks like some kind of more fat to me. If so, do you really need it with all that butter used? And I didn't understand what kind of machine was used for the walnuts and the figs.

@magmalin Shortening is basically fake lard. It's made from hydrogenated vegetable oil. The most well-known brand is Crisco. The nuts and figs were chopped up in a food processor. It is basically blender like machine that chops food. Google "cuisinart food processor" and you should get a picture of a pretty common one.

Last year when I made my Christmas Pudding, I made an animation of it. Traditionally a pudding is made the year before you eat it to allow all the flavours to mature. The whole meaning of the Pudding is also lost if it's made by machine, part of it is to spread good luck for the coming year and everyone in the house should stir the pudding and make a wish. It is a steamed pudding too! I'm sure your pudding is good but this is nothing to do with a Traditional English Christmas Pudding.

Wow, a whole video from expert village... Usually, they chop it up into four or five parts.

Cuisinart is a company, they make many things, it's bugging me, I just want him to say food processor, haha.

[ljmarkum]

hello ... if he wasn't talking you'd not know what he was doing with what. i agree, little cumbersome to listen too ... however, if you're THAT bothered by such things ... you have larger problems than just this guy's vocals.

[turnipgreen17]

Come on. A little more enthusiasm!

[jandlynn]

I think he did a great job however... the measurements would have been nice... also the custard sauce recipe would have been good too...

[aimjasmine]

Is there a receipe anywhere? It looked really good especially with the custard sauce. For those of you who are bothered by him talking....you have a volume control on your computor I hope.

[BooJaeJoongie]

this video would be a lot better if he didnt talk... probably wouldve gone by faster too
