After the nutmeg and ginger have been added for the receipt (recipe) A Boiled Plumb-Pudding a Pound of Currants and a Pound of Raisins are added but not one dried plum (prune).  The name plum pudding originated from the use of dried plums in England during the medieval times.  The pudding itself originated in England in the 15th century and was like a porridge and containing meat. The name plum pudding continued as the receipt evolved with currants, raisins and other dried fruits but not one plum.
