Love the idea of homemade Christmas pudding, but lost on what dish is the best to use. All you need are pudding bowls as they are perfect for steaming all of your delicious puddings. The best part- you can choose from different sizes and materials options according to your liking. So, get ready to explore the world of delicious puddings with your new best friend, the pudding basin!
Choosing the Right Pudding Bowls
Pudding bowls might seem like simple basins, but choosing the right one can make all the difference to your steamed delights. Here’s how to make the right choice:
1. Cooking Up Options
While the classic saucepan method exists, steaming puddings can be done in pressure cookers, microwaves, or even the oven with a water bath. Make sure your chosen basin can handle your preferred cooking style.
2. Portion Perfection
Pudding basins come in all sizes, from single-serve to family-feasting options. Consider the size of puddings you typically make to avoid overflowing messes or tiny, lonely portions.
3. Handy Features
Do you crave handles for easy transport? Is a lid a must-have to keep moisture in? Think about the features that will make your pudding-making experience a breeze.
4. Double Duty
Can the basin moonlight as a mixing bowl or be used for reheating in the microwave? Versatility in bowls means you get better products at affordable prices!

Perfectly Sealing Pudding Bowls to Get the Best Results
1. Cut some paper rounds
Imagine the rim and bottom of your basin. Trace those shapes onto baking paper and cut them out.
2. Layer the paper
Place the smaller circle in the bottom of the basin, then put the larger circle on top of your pudding mixture. This keeps the aluminium foil from touching the pudding directly.
3. Wrap the foil
Take a big piece of aluminium foil, double the thickness, and cover the entire basin. It should reach halfway down the sides.
4. Make a “tent” for steam
Pinch the foil in the centre to create a little hill (about 1 cm tall, 2 cm for large basins). This allows room for steam to build without the foil bursting.
5. Tie it tight
Wrap some string around the basin, under the rim, to secure the foil. Tie it snugly so it won’t slip off while cooking.
6. Make a handle (optional)
Want an easy way to lift the basin? Cut another piece of string, loop it across the top, and tie the ends to the string you already wrapped around the basin. Repeat this in another direction to create a criss-cross handle.
