By the way, in Sweden it's traditional to eat a porridge made out of rice for christmas. A native english speaking friend of mine calls this "rice pudding" (which is what it says it's called in the dictionary) and I find that translation to be very strange. Porridge and pudding are two very different things entirely.

| In the US, pudding covers a lot of territory: - Any of various soft thick unsweetened baked dishes severed hot (corn pudding, Indian pudding, Yorkshire pudding)
- Any of various soft sweet desserts thickened with flour or breadcrumbs and baked or boiled or steamed and served hot (Christmas plum pudding, carrot pudding, cottage pudding)
- Any of various soft sweet thick milk based desserts usually served cold thickened with cornstarch, tapioca, or rice (chocolate pudding, tapioca pudding, rice pudding)
- Bread pudding (kind of gets its own category) (stale bread soaked in a sweet egg and milk mixture usually with raisins or pineapple) baked and served warm or cold.
Hmmm.. The only common thread I see here is "soft". Why aren't mashed potatoes a pudding, I wonder?

| You know, if you say the word "pudding" enough, it seems kind of strange.

Heh, this is kind of the same discussion as to why you call apple sauce 'apple sauce', when it's in fact no sauce at all but a kind of jam (not jelly).
In short: you americans are just weird poeple.

The version of cooked apples that is cooked thick like jam is called apple butter. How's that for confusion?

'Bulle' means bun, so basically something small and round. Quote:

| Thanks a lot.  But still, methinks small and round can be anything. Why, you call also marbles some kind of bullar...? | |
