Indeed, you can overcook a plum pudding. It's critical to follow the suggested cooking times and temperatures in your recipe to guarantee that the pudding is clammy and tasty. Overcooking can result in a dry and thick surface, which may not be as charming. Watch out for the stove and utilise a toothpick or stick to test the doneness by embedding it into the focal point of the pudding—in the event that it confesses all or with a couple of clammy morsels, it's prepared.
