The traditional white pudding basin from
Mason Cash has become a "classic" recognised all over the
world. As old as the Mixing
Bowl and traditionally its partner - once the recipe
was complete any mixture which required steaming would be
placed in the basin and covered with greaseproof paper and/or
muslin. String would be tied round the basin and looped
to form a handle (hence the stepped rim) and the finished
item placed in a pan of boiling water to cook. It is sometimes
said that Pudding Basins are only used for Christmas Puddings
- if fact, nothing could be further from the truth - the
bowls are perfect for all sorts of steamed dishes. From
such firm favourites as Suet Crust Steak and Kidney Puddings
and Spotted Dick to Summer Pudding, Treacle Sponge or modern
vegetarian dishes, the Pudding Basin is in demand all the
year round. In these days of "disposables" Mason Cash is
the only company making traditional Pudding Basins from
traditional materials in the traditional way. Unlike some
inferior copies you may see around, these are the originals.
As a result, these bowls are likely to become well used
and loved family heirlooms which will still be going
strong in 50 years time. They are also, incidentally,
the bowls chosen by the Royal Household to package Christmas
& Plum Puddings, that are tradionally given as gifts
to members of staff.

Still made in England using Traditional
materials and methods, our pudding basins are useful all
the year round - not just for Christmas! And not just
for cooking. Our bowls are the original multi-purpose
kitchen accessories: used for cooking, mixing (especially
for liquids - they're ideal for beating eggs), storage
and display.
The large size is highly recommended, since you will have
not only all the volume you need, but also a very attractive
object in your kitchen. However, more units of the medium
size are sold than any other size. The smaller size mixing
bowl combines adequate functionality for most uses with
a very affordable price. You may also consider buying
all three sizes, as a set not only has a higher collectable
value, the bowls can be stacked one inside another for
easy storage!

The origins of Mason Cash go back to
a pottery which was already operating on the current site
at Church Gresley in Derbyshire around 1800. The pottery
was run by a succession of Master Potters of whom the most
colourful was "Bossy" Mason in the late 19th Century. When
Tom Cash acquired the pottery in 1901 he changed the name
to Mason Cash & Co - a name retained when the company was
incorporated by his son in 1941. The business has remained
family owned and run throughout its history, and Mason Cash
continues to make traditional products, using traditional,
local materials wherever possible. |
