Dock Pudding Competition Mytholmroyd

Event Details

Dock Pudding is a local delicacy little-known outside the Calder Valley area of Yorkshire and the Competition was founded in 1971 to help preserve it. The Pudding is made from the leaves of Polygonum Bistorta (which is not the same as Common Dock ,though they look alike) mixed with nettles, oatmeal, onions and seasoning, and served with bacon and eggs.

Competitors cook a whole cooked breakfast including the Dock Pudding and the winner receives a cup; the judging takes place behind closed doors so that the competitors are unknown to the judges, while the audience can watch the cooking on stage in the hall. Expect traditional Yorkshire brass band accompaniment.

Date: 28th April
Time: 1pm
Venue: Mytholmroyd Community Centre
