Atora Shredded Beef Suet 200g - Pack of 2

I live in Arkansas, a state in which you can literally get rendered hog lard just by turning a tap in every kitchen. Anything from a live feral hog to a soused pig's head can be purchased virtually anywhere from a liquor store to a bodega. But suet? I might as well ask for a piece of the True Cross! How to make a proper plum pudding without the glorious unguent that is suet? Amazon to the rescue, and Christmas is saved.

I used this for making traditional English Christmas Puddings.

Never used before ( I grew up in UK where suet puddings came in a can and boiled in a pan. When cooked, open the can and invert like a can of cranberry jelly). I anticipated a block of fat like crisco, and was pleasantly surprised to find it comes in pellet form, which makes measuring easy (refrigerate first and measure when cold; the pellets start to melt together even from the warmth of your hand).Decided to make Spotted Dick from scratch, bought a cheap steamed pudding mold, and followed a recipe using Atora. Better even than I remember! A huge hit with family. Also used to make Yorkshire puddings and two Toad-in-the-holes until my twin pack ran out. I'll be ordering more!

Super easy way to make traditional foods that require suet (like old-fashioned Plum Pudding). Suet gives a special richness to these dishes that is different from other fats.

Suet is not available from nearby markets except at Christmas. So what to do if you want a hot steamed pudding with custard during the cold months? Get Atora! I have used it for puddings for more than 40 years. It keeps well in the fridge even after you open a packet, so you can make several small puddings for your family to enjoy a freshly prepared sweet each time.

My 100 year old recipe for plum pudding calls for grated suet. I have not been able to find it here in eastern PA for several years. Found it on Amazon, made my plum pudding and it was so good. Thank you!

Bought these for making British puddings. Arrived faster than expected but one of the packages had some damages and grease stain on the paper box.

I couldn’t get suet when I needed it to make mincemeat. This was a great source. Gave the mincemeat a silky flavor. Had no beef taste.
