If you soak the dried fruits (raisins, currents, sultanas or golden raisins and homemade candied peel) in the rum in a tight sealed jar, for example a le parfait spring loaded rubber sealed jar, about a month before you are ready to cook the pudding, the fruit is beautifully plump and the moisture in the cake is even better.

Slow Cooker! Why didn’t I think of that. I have been making plum duff for years using my dear mother’s recipe. It’s a bit different but I am using methods from the 1920’s and use a gas burner and a big boiler. Mum used to use the wood copper!! Next one I will try the slow cooker, thanks.

Rachel June 20th 2020. I make a fruit teabread which is quite similar and the night before I soak all the fruit in cold tea. You don’t taste the tea but makes the fruit really plump.
