About me: I've embarked on a mission to cook something new from every cookery book I own - currently 260 - and am planning to use my account here to keep track (thanks to rfb from Librarything for tipping me off to the existence of this site).

Pease PuddingFrom: The Bean Book (reviewed 22nd October 2012)I like pease pudding (usually cold with ham in a stotty cake when I'm working up in Newcastle) so I don't know why I've never made it before.
