Mom's Christmas Carrot Pudding image

This is a tradition in my family and everyone looks forward to it. It's almost like a carrot cake and the sauce may sound a little odd but I never have it without it.

Steps:

  • Fill the pot with water halfway up the side of the molds.
  • Cover with lid and steam for 2 to 3 hours.
  • Check to make sure the pot doesn't run dry.
  • The pudding is done when it has a cake-like look to it.
  • You may have to steam for a longer period of time.
  • It is best to make this a few days ahead of time and cool it in a pantry or fridge so that the flavors may blend.
  • Sauce: Combine sugar, cornstarch, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, and allspice.
  • Add water.
  • Cook until thickens and clear looking.
  • Add vinegar and stir.
  • Make this the day you are going to serve.

MOM'S THANKSGIVING CARROT MOLD



Mom's Thanksgiving Carrot Mold image

This recipe was given to my Mother in 1961 in Omaha, Nebraska. My Dad was in the Air Force there (my parents were new to the midwest). My Mom got a whole new menu for Thanksgiving from her neighbors and those recipes are what we still have today for Thanksgiving! * You can make ahead and freeze this before baking and then thaw in the refrigerator 1 day prior to baking! Helps a lot with all the Thanksgiving cooking to get it out of the way in advance.
