Steps:
- Dissolve the baking soda in the hot water. Stir in 1 tablespoon of sugar and molasses, then mix in the cranberries and flour. Pour into a greased 6 cup steamer mold.
- Cover the mold, and place into a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover the steaming pot. Cook over medium heat for one hour before checking, but it will take about 1 1/2 hours total. A toothpick inserted into the pudding should come out clean. Loosen the edges, and cool on a wire rack in the mold.
- Make the hard sauce just before serving: Heat the unsalted butter, cream, 1 cup sugar and vanilla in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook stirring constantly until heated through and smooth.

Steps:
- Steam your pudding in a deep pot with a tight-fitting lid, so that the steam has room to circulate.
- Keep a kettle of hot water on hand to refill the pot if necessary.
- Do not allow the pudding to cool much longer than fifteen minutes, or you may have trouble removing it from the mold.
- Generously butter a 7 1/2-cup steam-pudding mold, and set aside.
- In a large saucepan, combine cranberries, sugar, 1/4 cup kirsch, and cinnamon stick.
- Set over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to medium, and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes, or until cranberries break down and mixture thickens.
- Remove from heat, discard cinnamon stick, and cool.
- Evenly spread 1/2 cup of the cooled cranberry mixture onto the bottom of the pudding mold, and set aside.
- Meanwhile, prepare the hot-water bath: Fill a large, 11-by-5 1/4-inch pot one-third full with water.
- Set over high heat, and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and keep at a simmer until pudding is ready to cook.
- In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar until light and creamy, about four minutes.
- Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla, mixing until completely blended.
- In three additions, alternate adding the dry ingredients and milk to the egg mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients and blending well after each addition.
- Add dried cranberries and the remaining cranberry mixture to the batter, and mix until well blended.
- Pour batter into pudding mold to within 1/2 an inch of the top, and cover mold tightly with its lid (if the mold doesn't have a lid, cover with a round of parchment paper and then aluminum foil, and secure with a rubber band).
- Submerge a folded dish towel or a round sack onto the bottom of the large water-bath pot.
- Place the pudding mold into the water bath, resting on the towel, so that the water comes halfway up the sides of the mold.
- Cover the water bath, and gently simmer the pudding for about 2 hours and 20 minutes, or until pudding has set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove pudding mold from the water bath and cool 15 minutes on a wire rack.
- Meanwhile, pour cream into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons kirsch and sifted confectioners sugar.
- Whip on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 45 seconds to 1 minute.
- Unmold pudding onto a serving platter.

Steps:
- To make caramel: Combine sugar and water in a small, heavy saucepan; set over medium heat. Cover, and cook until sugar has melted. Remove cover, and continue cooking, swirling pan occasionally, until sugar turns a deep amber. Carefully pour caramel into pudding mold; tip so caramel coats mold evenly. Set mold aside.
- To make applesauce: Peel and core apples and cut into chunks. Place in a small saucepan along with water, sugar, and spices. Cook, covered, over low heat until apples fall apart, 10 to 12 minutes. Uncover, and cook 5 minutes more, stirring often. Set the applesauce aside.
- To make apple topping: Peel and core apples and cut into 1-inch chunks. Melt butter in a small saute pan and add apples and sugar. Cook over medium-high heat until apples turn brown on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes. Place apples in the bottom of the caramel-lined mold, distributing evenly so they reach up the sides.
- Choose a pot large enough to hold the pudding mold with a 2-inch space all around. Place a wire rack or a folded kitchen towel in the bottom of pot; fill with enough water to reach halfway up sides of mold. Cover pot, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer.
- To make pudding: In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together butter and brown sugar. Add the eggs and molasses; mix well. Add the reserve applesauce, and mix well.
- In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt; stir in breadcrumbs. Add to the applesauce mixture. Stir batter until just combined.
- Fill pudding mold with batter; clamp on lid. Place mold in a pot of simmering water. Cover pot, and cook until a toothpick inserted into middle of pudding comes out clean, about 1 hour 40 minutes. Check water often, keeping it at a steady, low simmer. Transfer mold to a wire rack to cool, 15 minutes.
- When ready to serve, invert the pudding onto a serving plate. If any of the apple chunks stick to the mold, remove them, and rearrange them on the top; slice.
STEAMED CRANBERRY PUDDING
Steps:
- Butter a 2-quart steamed pudding mold and line it with wax paper and then butter and flour the paper. In a food processor coarsely chop cranberries. Transfer to a bowl and add almonds, sugar, flour, orange zest, ginger, cinnamon and allspice and combine. In another bowl mix bread crumbs, melted butter, milk, eggs, baking powder, sugar and salt. Combine the bread crumb mixture with the cranberry mixture.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared mold, a little at a time, tapping the mold as it is filled to eliminate any air bubbles. Cover the mold tightly with a lid and tie with a towel wrung out in cold water and floured. Tie a knot at the top of the towel to facilitate removal of the mold from the kettle.
- Set a rack in the bottom of a kettle and add enough simmering water to reach 3 inches up the sides of the mold. Transfer the mold to the kettle. Keep the water at a brisk but not a rolling boil on the stove top. Cover the kettle with a lid.
- Steam the pudding for 2 hours, checking occasionally to make certain the water remains at a boil, adding more water throughout the cooking process as necessary.
- To test for doneness, insert a skewer in the center of the pudding. It should come out with crumbs adhering to it. Return the lid to the mold and transfer it to a rack. The pudding will stay warm in the mold, covered, for several hours.
- To make the glaze combine cranberry juice, sugar and salt in a saucepan. Simmer the juice, stirring, until the sugar has dissolved. Bring the mixture to a boil and swirl gently until a candy thermometer reads 250 degrees. Add whole cranberries and remove the pan from the heat.
- Let the glaze cool and then chill it, covered, until ready to serve. To serve, unmold the pudding onto a serving plate and pour the cranberry glaze over it.

Steps:
- Brush two 1 1/2-quart ovenproof bowls with butter, and sprinkle with vanilla sugar; tap out excess. Bring Armagnac, dried fruit, and prunes to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until fruit has softened and absorbed the liquid, about 10 minutes. Coarsely chop fruit.
- Bring cream, half and half, vanilla sugar, cinnamon, vanilla beans and seeds, and zest to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
- Lightly beat egg yolks in a medium bowl. Whisking constantly, gradually ladle half the hot-cream mixture into the yolks. Pour yolk mixture into saucepan with remaining cream mixture. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly and scraping sides of pan, until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Pass custard through a fine sieve into a large bowl; discard solids.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In another large bowl, combine brioche cubes and chopped fruit, reserving 1/2 cup fruit. Pour in custard; toss to combine. Divide bread mixture between prepared bowls. Top each with half the reserved fruit. Sprinkle with vanilla sugar. Place a parchment round in water to dampen and transfer to top of pudding bowl to cover. Use a rubber band to secure, and tie with kitchen twine. Repeat process with second bowl. Let stand until bread has soaked up liquid, about 20 minutes.
- Set bowls in deep roasting pan. Transfer pan to oven; add enough boiling water to come 3 inches up sides of bowls. Bake 1 hour. Uncover; bake until set, about 30 minutes more. Serve warm or at room temperature, with sour lemon sauce. Puddings can be refrigerated up to 3 days; let cool completely before covering with plastic wrap. If desired, reheat in a 350-degree oven, just until warm.
STEAMED PERSIMMON PUDDING
Two kinds of persimmons are recruited for steamed pudding; soft, ripe hachiyas are used in the batter, and oven-dried slices of fuyu -- resembling orange flowers -- form a ring around the dessert. The pudding is full of golden raisins, pecans, and candied ginger and warmed by brandy's sweet heat.

Steps:
- Butter a 7 1/2 cup steamed pudding mold and set aside. In a medium saucepan combine the cranberries, sugar, orange juice and cinnamon. Set over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, or until cranberries break down and mixture thickens. Remove from heat and cool completely.
- Evenly spread 1/2 cup of the cooled cranberry mixture onto the bottom of the pudding mold, and set aside. Reserve remaining cooked cranberry mixture for batter. Meanwhile, prepare the hot-water bath: Fill a large, 11-by-5 1/4-inch pot one-third full with water. Set over high heat, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and keep at a simmer until pudding is ready to cook.
- In a large bowl beat together the butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer until creamy and smooth, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat well. Add the remaining cooked cranberry mixture and beat well. Stir together the flour, baking powder and salt. Alternate adding the flour mixture and the milk to the batter, beating well after each addition. By hand stir in the dried cranberries, dried cherries and pecans.
- Place a folded towel in the bottom of the water bath pot. Pour batter into prepared pudding mold to within a 1/2 inch of the top. Put cover on mold or if there is no cover, cover with a round of parchment paper and then aluminum foil, and secure with a rubber band. Carefully place mold in water bath on towel. Water should come about half way up the sides of the mold. Cover the water bath and keep water at a simmer for 2 hours 20 minutes or until a cake tester inserted into pudding comes out clean. Watch water levels and add more hot water to water bath as needed to keep water level half way up the sides of the mold.
- Remove mold from water and cool on a wire rack. Run a knife around edge of pudding in mold to loosen. Invert onto a platter and serve warm. Alternately, pudding may be unmolded, covered with plastic and chilled overnight. Serve cold or reheat cut slices lightly in microwave before serving.
