Having found the recipe, I think I'd *much* rather eat the pudding than the soup.Roving Lemonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14356212647201456769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7739200530591634408.post-73566511278897485522010-03-16T15:26:52.834-04:002010-03-16T15:26:52.834-04:00Hahaha...I've just googled and realised there ...Hahaha...I've just googled and realised there was a bird's nest pudding made with apples in the Little House books!

(shudder)<br /><br />Better you than me, Nancy, I have memories of being force-fed that as a child. And that was <i>before</i> I watched the David Attenborough special on how the nests are made! :o<br /><br />But maybe you're talking about something else, and I'm being a bit dense? :)Celia @ Fig Jam and Lime Cordialhttp://www.figjamandlimecordial.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7739200530591634408.post-585285677542355942010-03-16T07:39:12.460-04:002010-03-16T07:39:12.460-04:00Celia, I've actually made meringue like that m...Celia, I've actually made meringue like that more than once! Nigella Lawson has a couple of great recipes for it. If I ever see my cookbooks again, will find and post one.<br /><br />Congrats on your upgraded Farmer Boy!
