Enough for a 9-inch pie or 2 cups of pudding. Microwave on full power about 6 minutes or until thickened and clear, stirring every 2 minutes. Stir contents of package into water in medium-size microwave-safe bowl. Microwave directions - for pie glaze, pudding or fruit sauce. Serve sauce warm or chilled over cake, ice cream, bread pudding or rice pudding. For more flavor, add 1 lemon slice or 1/2 stick cinnamon while cooking. Serve plain or top with cream or whipped topping.įruit sauce - follow directions for pie glaze except use 2 1/2 cups cold water. Or layer pudding and whipped topping or fruit to make parfaits. Tangy Danish pudding - follow directions for pie glaze except use 2 cups cold water. Pie filling - after boiling 1 minute, immediately pour into 9-inch baked pie crust. Fruit juice may be used instead of the water when preparing Danish dessert. Well-drained canned or frozen fruit, coconut and nuts can also be folded into Danish dessert. Fold in 4 cups sliced fresh strawberries or other fresh fruit. The survey also suggests that canny marketing, of the sort which has saved Yorkshire pudding from going the way of bread and dripping, could also revive the old foods, particularly in the hands of celebrity TV chefs.Pie glaze - stir contents of package into 1 3/4 cups cold water in medium-size saucepan. The best hope for the ancient recipes lies in increasing concern about sustainability, and the hidden costs of transferring food across the world. Nearly a quarter of young people recognised the name but just under 70% said they would neither cook nor eat it. The Welsh have gone off rook pie and are even showing signs of rejecting the former national dish of laver bread - seaweed pureed with fine oatmeal into small cakes. Scots are close to forgetting crappit heids (boiled haddock heads stuffed with suet) and whim wham, a fruit and bread trifle which meant nothing to 94% of under-25s. The regional factor was emphasised by survey results in Scotland and Wales. "Pig's cheeks and squirrel casserole are clearly not to everyone's tastes, but they are a powerful link to a bygone culinary era." "A huge generation gap in culinary knowledge seems to be opening, that could soon result in some dishes being lost forever," said Paul Moreton, the head of UKTV Food which questioned 2,000 people for the survey. The survey was commissioned to mark UKTV's Local Food Hero campaign which aims to highlight regional recipes by honouring chefs and food producers who keep traditional dishes on the country's menus. Lardy cakes and even spotted dick, the stuff of school meal jokes for much of the early and mid-20th century, are also in the top 10 list of sweets too bothersome to make and no longer familiar to the young. Some venerable puddings also face extinction, with the time-honoured standby of junket - sweetened milk set with rennet and sprinkled with chocolate flakes - sadly on the way out. It was immortalised in Hannah Glasse's 18th-century book The Art of Cookery which starts its jugging recipe in early editions with the sage advice: "First catch your hare." But only 1.6% of young people had heard of it and 70% of young people said they would refuse to eat either the hare or the chaps.Īt the other end of the age scale, 30% of over-65s knew and had eaten jugged hare, a figure rising to 40% for Bath chaps. Similarly, jugged hare - boiled and served with hare blood and port - was once part of the staple diet. Only 1% of under-25s knew about the dish. Back then, cooled pigs' cheeks, plus half the jawbone and tongue, in breadcrumbs were key to the national diet. People brought up on rationing, which only ended for some imported ingredients in the early 1950s, have embraced "new foods" as eagerly as everyone else.Īt the top of the endangered list is Bath chaps, details of which appeared in the first English recipe book in 1769, written by Elizabeth Raffald, a housekeeper at a stately home in Salford. The survey finds a distinct generation gap, with the over-60s well aware of all the dishes - although not much bothered about the prospect of them dying out.
