Lore
Yan’s pudding belongs to the same steamed-school-pudding challenge as Steven’s, but its identity is unmistakably tropical: mango is the fruit-hat flourish that gives a familiar steamed sponge a sunny silhouette. The name captures the charm of the bake—a comforting pudding dressed with a playful crown of fruit.
