Is This Date Loaf The Origin Of Sticky Toffee Pudding? Maybe? Maybe not? Glen is on the hunt for earlier recipes that use dates and a sauce... and this Date Versatile Recipe (or date loaf, date bread, date cake) from 1938 seems like a great candidate.
Ingredients:
1 lb dates cut fine
1 tsp soda
1 cup hot water
2 heaping Tbsp butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs, separated
1½ cups flour
1 cup nuts, cut (optional)
1 tsp vanilla
¼ tsp salt
1 tsp B. powder
Method:
Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Mix soda with chopped pitted dates and pour hot water overtop.
Leave to soak while you prepare the rest.
Cream sugar and butter.
Beat in egg yolks, and then the vanilla.
Beat egg whites to stiff peaks.
Stir baking powder into flour.
Alternate between mixing flour, and date water into the butter sugar mixture.
Mix in the dates, and nuts if using.
Fold in the egg whites.
Bake in a greased loaf pan for 1 hour.
The recipe indicates that you can eat this with butter, or cream cheese and served with tea. Or with whipping cream and a hard sauce.

I'm Australian, I found it really interesting that you say a hard sauce is the same thing as toffee sauce. I know hard sauce as a sweet compound butter. Julie mentioning the date sandwich prompted me to remember that Mum (born 1947) has talked about how they used to take date sandwiches to school. Love these old recipes.

My mother made what she called date-nut loaf. She baked them in left over cans after we'd eaten the corn or peas. To get them out of the cans you got the can opener out and cut off the bottom and push the round loaf out the top. This was back in the 60sand 70s so if the cans had a coating inside at all it doesn't kill quickly since my sisters and I are still kicking.

I like the older recipes that you are doing! I think you should throw together your favorite recipes and put out a cookbook modernizing it!

I absolutely love that you're going through older recipes, recounting what are oddities to us these days, and all the informative things you've learned through the process of reverse engineering these recipes. Your content is amazing and unique.

The thermometer on my wood burning cookstove from that era ranges from warm to very hot, as opposed to using numbers. Some recipe books I have make references to such things as a "slow fire", which is great. I will say that once you get used to cooking on a stove like this, it's great fun.

Good point about the date cake with a "hard sauce". My Canadian grandmother made a delicious carrot steamed pudding with a hard sauce, I remember, and my mother made several different cakes topped with warm pudding sauce.

OMG. I love the sound of the loaf when it is being sliced at the beginning of the video. I to love the end/corner piece of cake. Unfortunately there is too much sugar in these recipes. (I’m doing keto but I love watching your channel, I don’t even use much alternative sweetness) Love your 3 spout measuring jug. How do you both not put on weight.

@chriscaughey1103 2 года назад

My mother use to bake date nut bread in those baking powder cans too! We'd come in from school in the 50s and smell the kitchen and it was wonderful as was the taste after they had cooled. (and I'm from Muskegon, Michigan!)

I love the story of the sticky toffee pudding. (Though I'm not sure it's the 'quintessential' English pudding: I'd say that was apple pie, spotted dick or Bakewell tart.) It's fascinating to see how recipes develop and evolve, too: I found a recipe for 'date bread' in a 1923 cookbook published by Be-Ro, a UK flour company, so the story goes even further back...

@martinsanchez4827 Год назад

To be honest it should be a quintessential English pudding as it's so delicious. Even if it had Canadian influence, its still a English desert as the recipe was invented and popularized in England. Also the use of treacle and steaming of it, is quite different compared to what he is doing. Like you pointed out, the history of STP most likely goes further back than the recipes he is cooking. Also date cakes are also a very British thing, that predates the recipes he is proposing. Even though it's English, it still has an interesting history behind it.

Honestly...throw in some nuts (hickory or black walnut, preferably) and this Iowa Girl wouldn't be able to tell this from her Grandma's Date-Nut Bread. ❤

You can’t fool us. You used a spoon so there would be more batter left in the bowl to lick later.

@ephemerabluetit335 Год назад

I'm surprised reading the comments that none are reporting results. Mine is mixed and going into the oven. Unfortunately, I would have chosen to cut the sugar by half. Although the date flavor is rich, the batter is much too sweet.

@carolgivati7372 2 года назад

Your recipe indicates baking time as 1 hour. However in the video you said 1hour 15 minutes. Which is it? I did 1 hour and the bottom edges were slightly overdone.

@GlenAndFriendsCooking 2 года назад

Cooking times are at best a guesstimate - depends on your oven, the shape of your pan, the material of your pan, etc, etc. So it could be done in an hour, but could take an hour and fifteen minutes. Some ovens may take longer.

@andrewduncan4908 3 года назад

Do you understand the purpose of soaking the dates baking soda. It shouldn't assist raising as soda activates with water and so it will be exhausted by the time it goes into the batter. Does it soften the dates, or is it one of those oddities of cooking that we keep doing even though we don't know why?

@GlenAndFriendsCooking 3 года назад

Actually Andrew baking soda doesn't activate with water - it activates with acid. Baking Powder activates with water: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nek_YVvvFoo.html
