“Bring us some Figgy Pudding!”

Inspired by the traditional Christmas carol, Andy Bates (co-host of The Coffee Hour) joins Sarah (also a co-host of The Coffee Hour) and Erin in the Lounge for a festive, fig-filled crossover episode all about the legendary dish everyone’s heard of (but few have ever actually tasted): Figgy Pudding, also known as Christmas Pudding.

What is it made from? Is it secretly its own food group? Will Erin try it again?

From its origins as a savory dish, through the faux liturgical feast day of “Stir Up Sunday,” and ending with Andy sharing his first go at making this dish at home, this episode invites you to celebrate the holiday season with the hosts of The Coffee Hour and The Lutheran Ladies’ Lounge Podcast.
