Bedfordshire clanger
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Bedfordshire Clanger is a traditional dish from the county of the same name.
It is an elongated suet crust dumpling still available at some bakers and served at some hotels and local places of interest, such as the Chiltern Gateway Centre on Dunstable Downs.
It had meat filling at one end and a jam filling at the other, comprising main course and dessert in one item.
Traditionally, it was made by women for their menfolk to take to their agricultural work as a midday meal.
