    Thank you for watching! We’ve anticipated some of your questions about this recipe and have included the answers below. Have another question? Reply to this comment and we’ll aim to answer the most upvoted comments.
    HOW DO I MAKE SUET CRUST?
    As Mrs Crocombe says, suet crust is really easy. Just gradually combine the following ingredients in a bowl until you have a smooth, elastic dough:
    225g flour
    85g suet
    A generous pinch of salt
    Cold water
    WHAT IS SUET?
    Suet is the hard fat around the kidneys of most animals. It is easily available online, and we would recommend using the real stuff. The leading brand in the UK is Atora, but there are others available . You can get vegetarian suet online as well. If you really can't get it, you could try wrapping your apples in bread dough and see if that works - let us know!
    WHAT APPLE VARIETY SHOULD I USE?
    Any eating apple should work for this recipe, but we'd advise older varieties such as Cox or Pippin. A Braeburn or Golden Delicious will work. A Bramley or a Granny Smith (or other cooking varieties) won't work as they tend to turn to mush when cooked for this long.
    I DON’T HAVE A KNITTED DISHCLOTH, WHAT ELSE CAN I USE?
    The cloth gives the dumplings their distinctive pattern, so while you can use a standard (cotton) pudding cloth or tea towel, it won't be quite the same. You can buy them quite easily, or you can knit (or crochet) your own, in which case make sure you use 100% cotton wool. (Usually sold specifically as dishcloth wool).
    WOULD MRS CROCOMBE REALLY HAVE TO KNIT HER OWN DISHCLOTHS?
    Probably not, no, for you could buy anything! But Kathy Hipperson’s interpretation of Avis Crocombe is that she likes to train her maids in all aspects of the job, as well as preparing them for life beyond the kitchen. Most girls would have learnt to knit from their mothers, as it was a basic life skill at the time. Working as a domestic servant often meant keeping a close eye on the household budget, and that might lead to knitting your own cloths. Many people also enjoyed knitting for pleasure. And yes, Kathy really can knit, and very well too. She really did make most of her own dishcloths for this video.
    WHY DOES MRS CROCOMBE SEEM TO BOIL A LOT OF HER DISHES?
    Boiling was the most energy efficient way to cook. A vessel full of boiling water could be used to cook many things simultaneously, and frequently the poor in the UK (and elsewhere) would cook their food in bags in a cauldron over the same fire which provided heat for their home. Further up the social scale, cooking over direct heat, either by roasting (in the old sense of cooking in front of a fire), or grilling (in the current American English use, which was also the UK English use of the word until the late 19th century), was also used, but was not efficient at all. Kitchens often used the heat from the roasting fire to heat a cauldron for boiling as well. Baking was only open to those rich enough to afford an oven (unless they took food to the local bakers to be baked). Ovens were neither as controllable or usable as modern ovens -cooking over fire or in a range was both. However, when historic books refer to boiling they use it as a catch all term, and this can be misleading, for they often mean poaching, which is rather gentler.
    CAN I BAKE THE DUMPLINGS INSTEAD OF BOILING THEM?
    We cannot guarantee the results if you bake them without boiling first, but if you try this approach please report back. We'd advise boiling them for 45 minutes then removing them from the cloth and baking for 10-15m at 180c / 350f.
    WHAT DID THEY TASTE LIKE?
    Fashionable Apple Dumplings were a second course dish, not dessert, so possibly a bit more savoury than we would imagine a sweet to be today, when we are used to very sweet, rather simple flavours and textures.

      Knitting Help here on UA-cam has very straightforward, informative videos. Mrs. Crocombe knits in the English style (as opposed to Continental or the rarer Portuguese style), meaning she carries her working yarn in the right hand. Continental style carries the working yarn in the left, and Portuguese style tensions it around the neck and uses either hand. If you were to search knitting help English style, you’d learn exactly the way she does it. I personally prefer Continental style. It’s not related to dominant-handedness, simply what comes most naturally to you. If you find English style too fiddly, switch hands!

    Well I never.

      I guess some marmalade recipes had cinnamon. Also in their own comment the channel said that it wasn't a dessert but a course in between two courses so it wasn't expected to be sweet, hence no sugar.
