  1. 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 ❤❤❤

  2. 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.

  3. 🇿🇦… 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!!! 🎉

  4. 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.

  5. 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

  6. 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🥰

  7. 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!
