Boil the pudding cloth for 20 minutes. Then carefully remove it from the pot and lay it out flat. Spread suet, lard or butter across it and rub in a liberal amount of flour.
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix. Then form into a ball and place in the middle of the pudding cloth. Gathering the cloth tightly around it, twist the cloth at the 'neck' then wrap it with a string several times and tie tightly around it.
Boil a large pot of water with an upside down plate on the bottom of the pot. Set the pudding in the boiling water and let boil for 3 ½ hours. Check often and add more boiling water when necessary.
Remove pudding from the water and allow to dry before unwrapping. This can be served right away or aged for several weeks/months.
