McCalls cookbook

[Penny]

Have been asked for a recipe from McCalls cook book. Plum pudding. Anybody got this book or know the recipe. cheers Penny.

[Rowan]

Sorry, I've not - have only got a well worn copy of the Lofty Peak one.

[Penny]

Thanks Rowan. I feel that McCalls is a magazine not a cook book, but one that has the odd recipe in. Did wonder if the person meant a Christmas Pudding but have no word yet. Will just have to keep searching.Thanks anyway. cheers Penny.

Is that R.S. McColl the sweetie shop? Does it still exist?

Or Robert McCall, "The Equalizer"?

*resists temptation*

Have just found McCalls cooking school. There are so many plum puddings but none with the title 'McCalls plum pudding'. Will have to delve further. cheers Penny.
