Christmas Pudding, also known as plum pudding, has been a traditional British dessert for centuries. Its origins can be traced back to medieval England, where it was originally a porridge-like dish made with beef and mutton, along with raisins, currants, prunes, wines, and spices. Over time, it evolved into the rich, fruity dessert we know today.Significance during Christmas: Christmas Pudding is a quintessential part of the British Christmas celebration. It is often made weeks in advance and allowed to mature, which enhances its flavors. The tradition of making the pudding on "Stir-up Sunday," the last Sunday before Advent, involves each family member taking a turn to stir the mixture and make a wish.
