BACK TO PUDDINGS  
     

Syllabub (also sillabub,sillibub) is a traditional English dessert, popular from the sixteenth to the nineteenth century. It is usually made from rich milk or cream seasoned with sugar and lightly curdled with wine or cider. Traditionally a bowl containing 'Sille,' a wine that used to be made in Sillery, in France's Champagne region was placed under a cow's udder and milked directly into it. 'Bub' was Elizabethan slang for a bubbling drink.

The general ingredients are whipped cream, whipped egg white (absent since
