How to Use the Beaufort Plastic Pudding Steamer Basin 1.1L

Preparation

• Gather all your pudding ingredients and follow your recipe.
• Grease the inside of the pudding steamer basin lightly with butter or oil to prevent sticking.

Filling the Basin

• Pour the prepared pudding mixture into the basin, leaving some space at the top for expansion.
• Cover the pudding with a layer of parchment paper or foil, securing it with string or an elastic band around the rim.

Steaming the Pudding

• Place a trivet or an upturned saucer in the bottom of a large pot to elevate the basin.
• Fill the pot with water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the basin.
• Bring the water to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
• Carefully place the basin on the trivet or saucer in the pot.
• Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid to maintain steam.
• Steam the pudding according to your recipe’s instructions, usually for 1-2 hours.
• Check occasionally to ensure the water level stays consistent, adding more boiling water as needed.

Removing and Serving the Pudding

• Once the pudding is cooked, carefully remove the basin from the pot using oven mitts.
• Let it cool slightly before removing the cover.
• Run a knife around the edge of the pudding to loosen it.
• Invert the basin onto a serving plate and gently tap to release the pudding.
• Serve the pudding warm with your choice of accompaniments.
