For the Filling

For the Suet Pastry

Before starting the recipe, ensure you have the following equipment:

III. Step-by-Step Instructions

A. Making the CBD-Infused Filling

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the dried fruits, candied peel, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger. Mix well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
  2. If desired, add 1-2 full spectrum CBD oil drops to the filling mixture. The CBD oil can provide potential wellness benefits, but ensure you follow the dosage instructions provided with your CBD oil and consult with a healthcare professional if needed.
  3. Optional: Pour the rum or brandy over the filling mixture and stir to coat the fruits. This will add a delicious depth of flavor to the filling.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the filling mixture marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight in the refrigerator. This allows the flavors to meld together and the dried fruits to absorb the liquid.

B. Preparing the Suet Pastry

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the self-rising flour and a pinch of salt.
  2. Add the shredded beef suet to the flour mixture. Use a fork or your fingers to incorporate the suet into the flour until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  3. Gradually add cold water, a tablespoon at a time, while mixing with a fork. Continue adding water until the mixture comes together to form a soft, pliable dough.
  4. Once the dough has formed, lightly flour a clean surface and knead the dough gently for a few minutes until smooth and elastic.

C. Assembling and Steaming the Pudding

  1. Grease a pudding basin or heatproof bowl with butter or cooking spray.
  2. Cut a piece of parchment paper to fit the bottom of the greased pudding basin, then press it firmly into the base to prevent the pudding from sticking.
  3. Take about two-thirds of the suet pastry dough and roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a circle large enough to line the pudding basin. The circle should be approximately 1/4 inch thick.
  4. Carefully transfer the rolled-out pastry to the pudding basin, gently pressing it against the sides and ensuring there are no air pockets.
  5. Spoon the CBD-infused filling mixture into the pastry-lined pudding basin, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
  6. Roll out the remaining one-third of the suet pastry dough into a circle slightly larger than the top of the pudding basin. This will be the lid of the pudding.
  7. Place the pastry lid over the filling and press the edges firmly to seal. Trim off any excess pastry using a sharp knife.
  8. Cut a square piece of aluminum foil and parchment paper larger than the pudding basin. Lay the aluminum foil on top of the parchment paper, then fold a pleat in the center to allow room for the pudding to expand while steaming.
  9. Place the aluminum foil and parchment paper on top of the pudding basin, ensuring it covers the entire top and sides. Secure it tightly by tying kitchen twine around the rim of the basin.
  10. Prepare a steamer or a large pot with a steaming rack. Fill the pot with enough water to reach the bottom of the steaming rack, but not touching the pudding basin.
  11. Place the covered pudding basin on the steaming rack, cover the pot with a lid, and bring the water to a gentle boil.
  12. Steam the suet pudding for about 2 to 2.5 hours, ensuring that the water level is maintained throughout the steaming process. Add more boiling water if necessary.
  13. After the steaming time has elapsed, carefully remove the pudding from the pot and let it cool slightly in the basin.
  14. Once cooled, remove the aluminum foil and parchment paper from the top of the pudding basin.
  15. To serve, run a knife around the edge of the pudding to loosen it. Place a serving plate on top of the pudding basin, then invert the basin and plate together to release the pudding onto the plate.
  16. Serve the CBD-infused suet pudding warm with a drizzle of custard, cream, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The flavors and potential wellness benefits of CBD will complement the rich and comforting taste of the pudding.
