@goldentouch5838

The vinegar reacts with the baking soda and makes is airey, this you have learnt in school projects at the age of 3 to 6 to demonstrate an active volcano 😂😂😅 Happy baking ❤❤❤

@deda118

Does the vinegar not curdle the milk? I wish these things would be touched upon.

@pamelaogorman4462

Your appsoloutly brilliant love your channel and recipe 😊❤

@hannahkroon5233

Btw, this can be baked in the microwave too (for a much quicker dessert)… But I would suggest putting it under the grill for some colour.

Thank you dearest Gemma! This pudding is a superhit with my family ❤

@shellyannpurcell1760

Can i double this recipe?

@JermaineGertse

Malva pudding with ice cream and some Amarula drizzled over is sooo delicious. A naughty treat😂

@AR-yv3dj

You have used too little butter in the batter, hence the light colour of the pudding. Also the pouring sauce should be a little more thick and not so runny. Vinegar may be to aid in the leavening with the baking soda and also maybe balance the sweetness. I always omit the vinegar for fear of the vinegary odour and still my pudding comes out perfect.

@liviabajdaun4157

Hi Gemma, I love your videos. You explain everything smoothly and also show the recipe instructions right on the video. Got the recipe and will be making this pudding. Thank you 😊

@bronwynhendrikse2756

As a South African I highly recommend

It reminds me of an old fashioned poke cake is that a southern thing? From Texas here

@Sebastopolmark

This is a GREAT dessert in Winter well Summer, Spring or Fall. I was drooling so much I had to wipe my keyboard! !! !!!

@Revelation18-4

It reminds me of the Tres Leches cake.

Picturing a typical Irish autumn Sunday afternoon with this and stewed apples or plums.❤

@DeeSperling

That recipe looks so simple and easy! I'm going to try it using freshly milled wheat berries!

@SheilaStrauss

Malva is from Malvasia not marsmallow

@laniesnyman2305

South African baker here, the vinegar helps to tenderise the Malva. Traditionally, we use vinegar instead of other acids because it was always more affordable.

@HomeCookingJourney

It honestly looks so good! Such an inspiration! I'd love to make Malva Pudding 😊

@karooblue7634

🇿🇦… Thank you Jemma for sharing this popular South African baked pudding with your international audience. Did you know that this bakes very well in ramekins? It also freezes well for up to 3 months… and the modern twist is to combine the Malva Puddig batter and bake it with a cheesecake!!! 🎉

@ayeshajacobs4374

Yip, couldn't scroll by without having a looksy at how you make it. 😅 🇿🇦👍

@brideofchrist8295

I'm from South Africa, was thinking of baking it today, I'll do your recipe😊❤

@bradw3800

Thanks for sharing, Gemma. As you say, Malva means "marshmallow" in Afrikaans (a Dutch dialect widely spoken in Southern Africa). It is given that name because of the sponginess of the pudding once the sauce is added and settled. The vinegar balances the flavours, and the acid helps aliven the bicarb. It's traditionally served with custard, depending on the region of South Africa where it is served. Custard is the standard because the pudding is extremely sweet as is. It is also served in some parts of the country with whipped cream, or ice-cream, as you've done it. As a tip, when making the sauce, replace some of the milk with Amarula Cream (a South African liqueur available all over the world now, with a distinct taste of the Marula fruit, or use Bailey's Irish Cream if you don't have Amarula). It's a game changer!!!! Alternately, add some brandy, whiskey, rum or Amarula into some whipped cream or custard to be served alongside the Malva Pudding. You can also add vanilla extract to the pudding mix. I have also known some restaurants to add lemon or orange zest to the pudding mix. The pudding is incredibly versatile, but, for me, plain is best, as you've showcased it.

Hi Gemma, kindly do the Kenyan favourite- mandazi

@evelynfernandes4794

Would the vinegar not curdle the milk ?

@ArcMan-l3q

I make it alot,I use rum in the sauce that I throw over the malva when baked. South Africa

@adelmuller4412

The vinegar takes away the raising agent taste.when you make scons or anything that has a lot of raising agent- baking powder- you put in a teaspoon vinegar or 🍋 n juice. Baking powder leaves a bitter taste.so my Grandma thought me to always put it in

In my family when we do the sauce we do half and half white to brown sugar, gives a better balance of caramel without being too caramel but much tastier than just full white sugar. Love this recipe so much tho🥰

@elizabethvallely4044

WOW That looks beautiful and delicious! Thank you for Sharing Gemma! Liz 💚❤🇨🇦

@lesleyannjacobs1383

Hello Gemma, South African here. Malva Pudding is real Afrikaans traditional pudding but eaten with gusto by all cultures in SA. The vinegar is to pair with the bicarb for rising. South Africans traditionally use white or grape vinegar. Apple cider vinegar is now gaining more popularity but unusual for baking.
You can also research and present a Cape Brandy Pudding. Lovely!

@KarenScheepers

If you substitute some of the Milk with Amarula, it gives it a different flavour😊. So glad to know you're enjoying our traditional pudding.

@filomenacavallaro408

Hi Gemma. Here in South africa we love our malva pudding, especially with warm custard! And we like to add vanilla essence to our sauce. Yum😊
