| 1. Preheat oven to 350 deg F. | 2. You need a large ovenproof pudding dish, or 2 pie plates. Grease or spray with nonstick spray. | 3. Put the chopped dates in a bowl. Add the baking soda, and pour over the boiling water. | 4. Stir to mix and leave to cool. | 5. Cream together the butter and sugar until creamy (I use caster sugar, which, being fine, creams more easily). Add the beaten eggs and mix well. | 6. Sieve together the flour, baking powder and salt, then fold it into the creamed mixture. | 7. Stir in the date mixture, and then the nuts. Fold in thoroughly. | 8. Ladle into your prepared dish or pie plates, and put into oven. The baking time is approximately 50 minutes, but will depend on the dishes used. Test with a skewer, but a few crumbs will often adhere to the stick even when the pudding is done. | 9. While it's baking, make the syrup. | 10. Heat the sugar, butter and water together, stirring, until sugar has melted almost completely. Do not boil. | 11. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla, salt and brandy. | 12. When the pudding or pies come out of the oven, pour over the hot syrup. It will sink in slowly. | 13. Serve hot or cold with ice cream, whipped cream or custard. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
