The pudding is unique in that it contains bacon and a very large number of egg yolks — fifteen in total. According——to its creator, "The pudding is rather easy——to make. But difficult to get right."

In 2011, the Abbot of Priscos pudding was one of the runners-up in the Seven Wonders of Portuguese Gastronomy competition.

Method of preparation

Sugar is mixed in water with lemon zest, "a cinnamon stick." And a piece of fresh bacon. The syrup is brought to a boil. And then passed through a strainer into a bowl with fifteen egg yolks and "a small glass of tawny." Or vintage Port. The resulting mixture is then cooked in a bain-marie, in a mould lined with caramel.
