It was also known as dead man's arm because it was often boiled in a shirt sleeve, which would be a cool way to serve it for Halloween too. 😁 You just need a cotton shirt from a thrift shop (boil it before you use it). Don't do what Emmy did though, hers was pretty gross when actually, it's a really tasty pudding. Lots of online tutorials around, l'm sure. 😊

Jam roly poly is very traditional here in Scotland, and it's something my granny used to make regularly. I've never known it be boiled though, that looked awful! It should be a dense pudding, but not wet like that! It should be steamed in the oven, not cooked directly in water. That way you get the rise and a slightly browned crispiness to the outside. Also, Bird's custard doesn't taste eggy because it's specifically made without egg - the inventor's wife was allergic to egg but she loved custard so he developed an egg-free one for her

Kiwi here.The one l grew up eating and used to make was a jam roly poly but, put in a dish with sugar and water which came about halfway up the pudding, then baked. The water and sugar reduced and thickened as the pudding cooked and that became the sauce and the pudding got a lovely crust on it as it cooked. Is that something like yours?

A lot of past societies had a high sense of humor when it came to their food's naming. What it looked like, how it tasted, or simply how it was prepared and presented often played part in the naming of a dish.

I'm just guessing, but since these desserts were often served for pudding at schools, I suspect that's where the acquired these names.

I have an alternative way for you try! We call it a baked jam roll or baked jam roly poly. Pre-heat your oven to moderately hot. Butter a rectangular baking dish. Make your pastry, spread your jam just as with your recipe. Don’t wrap it in cloth. Once rolled up, place your roly poly diagonally corner to corner in your baking dish. The next part is what makes this sooo very delicious! Dissolve one cup of white sugar and three tablespoons of butter in two cups of boiling water. Pour over the roly poly and bake for 30-45 minutes. The syrup will be like toffee at the edges. It’s DELICIOUS! I have been known to increase the syrup to one and a half cups of sugar 5 tablespoons of butter and three cups of boiling water to get more toffee syrup! The roly poly is golden, flaky and crispy and sometimes splits to reveal the jam. It is truly very yummy!! We always served it with pouring cream instead of custard.

I was not in the class but I did participate in said friend's short film, and he used a very similar (if not the same) recipe for some severed limbs in a scene. We got to eat them afterwards lol
It is also called "Dead Man's Arm" (which you suggested). and "Shirt Sleeve Pudding." I love jam roly-poly. I grew up in the UK and had it often as a child. Unfortunately, I can't eat it any more as I've developed a sensitivity to all berries.

That did look a little on the dense side, it's usually a bit more fluffy and risen. You can also replace the jam with bacon and fried onions to make a bacon clanger (I like it baked in the oven so it has a crispy shell and a soft centre)

Essentially these type of boiled puddings are dumplings with the combination of flour and suet at its core. Generally speaking most of the the old fashioned puddings like these are either steamed or baked now a days, though there seems to be a resurgent in classic boiled puddings, well at least with clooty dumplings from what I have seen on facebook (well worth a try if you want to try a traditional Scottish dumpling, though it is served with a scottish breakfast (lorne, tattie scone, bacon, eggs, mushrooms, maybe some link sausages (and devisive baked beans) and either tinned plum tomatoes or fried tomato (dinnae forget the broon sauce), it is very tasty.

I wouldn't say a clootie dumpling is the same as the fruit pudding you'd slice and fry for a Scottish breakfast. A clootie dumpling is round because it's tied up in a cloot, and it's a sweet pudding you'd have with custard. Fruit pudding is made in a sausage shape so you can slice it into rounds like black or white pudding to fry
Holy cow… I never laughed so hard at a cooking show IN MY LIFE!! This would be great for a Halloween party

"It's not very attractive..." made me laugh out loud. 😂 Such a wonderful understatement as you unwrap a grisly looking object you're expected to eat. I'm a fan of steamed puddings (I often just use a quick bread mix), but if that were my introduction to them, I'm not sure I could bring myself to try it. Way too aptly named! 😄 To me, Bird's Custard tastes like Jello instant vanilla pudding. I think you could use them pretty much interchangeably.

If any Americans watching this feel inclined to try making it (and why wouldn't you?! 😂) just note that Emmy was following a recipe published for the UK market. The recipe indicated self-raising flour, which contains more baking powder than US self-rising flour. If you use US self-rising flour, you should add an extra half teaspoon of baking powder for every cup of flour used - this should mean you end up with a fluffier texture than Emmy did (given her pudding lacks a quarter of the raising agent needed). Also, self-raising flour doesn't contain any salt, whereas US self rising flour contains a half teaspoon for every cup, so as Emmy advises in the video, don't add any extra.
Wow ive not eaten this since i was at school! Its really nice.

Great recipe for Halloween
This takes me back to school dinners (UK). Only the way our cooks made the Bird's custard gave it a weird aftertaste, almost bitter. It put me off custard for life! Also, our macaroni cheese was neon green. When I was eventually allowed to take a packed lunch to school instead, I was so happy! 😂

It's a lot better baked in my opinion. Back in the day people didn't have ovens in the same way we do now so steaming or boiling was easier. Baked, you get a fluffy middle and crispy top. You can make a quick and easy filling with pureed dried apricots instead of jam.
This would be great for a Halloween treat!
I think that would be great for a Halloween party. Add some additional jam on the end for clotted blood. Cool!
well done! you may want to investigate dead fly pie if you havent yet!
This is similar to a pudding/dessert we have here in Strathspey in the Scottish Highlands called a clootie dumpling. Clootie means cloth. Literally just down the road from me is the Speyside Centre where you can have a slice of their handmade clootie dumpling with custard or ice cream. The consistency is very much the same as your dead man's leg but a clootie dumpling is more or a ball-shaped thing of beauty.
Plum pudding my grandparents made it, and served with hard sauce. Delicious
I am definitely one of those people that covers the entire slice of bread with jam, jelly, butter, mayo or whatever I'm putting on the bread. LOL It does look grotesque and intriguing at the same time. ❤❤
You can put it in a pre heated oven, for 20/30 minutes to add a little colour and crisp it up it make all the difference
I was so waiting for the word “gnarly” to pop up. It’s a very vivid dessert. TBH, I wanna make one for flavor profile only.
Jam Roly poly is a traditional dish of the UK. The old way ( Victorian) was to boil in water, but over the years steaming has become more popular. And hence why the boiled version is a easy pudd for camping. Scout groups will often have their own version.
yeah, I'd have to be starving in the forest before I ate that! Great video
Definitely great for Halloween 😅
The Aubrey-Maturin novels are excellent. Two of them were knit together to form the basis of the 2003 film Master and Commander, but there's 20 of them all told.
It can also be made savory. You can use mushrooms, onion, and bacon. After boiling, slice and lightly fry in butter or lard.

The Townsends channel has done some of these types of puddings. They use a lot of flour on the damp towel before wrapping the pudding.
how fun!
Pudding is something in a casing, not just a dessert, but also sausages, haggis etc. of course some puddings have had the casing replaced by metal or plastic containers they can be boiled or steamed in.
That would be a great Halloween desert. I think I’d even dye the custard red and serve the “leg” pieces on top of it. 😂
