Renaissance Pudding Recipes

Renaissance Pudding Recipes Make Delicious Puddings For Any Medieval Banquet


Sponsored Links



Renaissance pudding recipes include puddings that are either boiled or baked. The earliest Medieval and Elizabethan puddings were boiled in sausage casings or stomach linings.

However, by the mid seventeenth century, many custard-based and cake-like puddings sweetened with sugar and fruit were being boiled in special pudding cloths or baked in deep, buttered dishes like the pudding recipes featured on this page. These puddings are not unlike our modern-day puddings.

Enjoy trying these authentic Renaissance pudding recipes. The puddings are easy to make and delicious. They would be perfect for serving at a Renaissance dinner or theme party.

If you have difficulty reading the Early-Modern-English style of writing, or you need to shed light on any outdated ingredient names and cooking terms, please refer to The Renaissance Dessert Recipes Glossary.
