Framed Print of Making a Christmas Pudding in China, 1873. Creator: Unknown
Making a Christmas Pudding in China, 1873. It was my fate to spend Christmas last year in China, and the house I chanced to be living in contained a number of young gentlemen belonging to one of the large mercantile firms. In their arrangements for the Christmas dinner, it was found that none of the Chinese servants knew how to make a plum-pudding...What useless fellows we all found ourselves, when the question went round if anyone could make a plum-pudding!...The next evening some friends came in, and...one of the gentlemen present offered his services. Had a superior being from a brighter sphere come down to assist us, the joy could not have been greater. His coat was pulled off, and there was a rush to the kitchen, where, the materials being all ready, the process was gone through, with an earnest and inquiring crowd of pigtails round the table. The Chinese "boys"..watched the whole proceeding...the pudding we got was no makeshift; it was as good an article of the kind as ever appeared on the table. The behaviour of our useful hero was in keeping with Tennyson's description. He was a stalwart knight in more senses than one. His big beard made a fine contrast to the hairless chins of the Turanian spectators who watched his every movement'. From "Illustrated London News", 1873.
