In short: Step back into the 19th century to explore a dessert that was a staple in Scottish cookbooks as far back as the 1700s.
This video demonstrates a historical recipe for 'maccaroni' pudding, using the period-accurate double-C spelling. The process involves steeping four ounces of pasta for one hour, then boiling it in a quart of milk until soft.
