Ann loved the video but I think you would manage the treacle better if you dipped the spoon in boiling water first.
Absolutely love Clootie Dumpling. Traditionally I think Sixpences were added. One of my childhood friends Karen – her mother used to steam the dumpling in an old cotton pillow case. We never had it with custard we just had it warm with a spot of milk. Absolutely Yummy.
