Weighing Suet

There are many different receipts (recipes) for preparing a pudding in a bag.  One category of those puddings are those containing suet.  I have my suet  (of which the best is the fat around the beef kidney) on the board and am in the process of weighing three-quarter of a pound on my balance scales.  This suet will be cut into small pieces with a rocker knife in a large wood cutting trough as the first ingredient in the pudding.  More steps to follow!
