Syllabub
Aug 23, 2011
Syllabubs fall into three categories: Everlasting, Whipt and From the Cow. The first is essentially a flavored cream pudding; the second is similar, but floated in a glass of sweetened wine. The last is the result of the curdling that occurs when warm milk is squirted directly from a cow into a bowl of cider.
