Birthday Pud

May 29th - My mum has been on Islay for the past week partaking of a variety of whiskies at the whisky festival, which happily coincides with her birthday.  Naturally I made a bit of a birthday tea.....and she likes a bit of a pudding so I decided to try out something new. One of my favourite recipe books is The Freerange Cook by Annabel Langbein, which I got for Christams one year from my brother in New Zealand.  I use her recipes a lot, but sadly not in this blog since the whole deal is trying out new recipes! Shame.  However I had never tried the Honey Lemon Cream Puddings which looked a bit like lemon posset which I love but have never made...and my mum is a bit of a honey fiend. 600ml of cream, 8 tablespoons of honey, 50g of sugar were put in a pan over a medium heat and brought to the boil until the sugar dissolved.  Then the mixture was simmered for 3 minutes.  Once off the heat, 100ml of lemon juice was added and the lemon cream strained through a sieve into glasses. They need about 4 hours to set.  I really wish I had some of the lovely old fashioned tea cups to serve it in! It was divine! Do try it.
