Original North German recipe

Separate the eggs, beat the egg whites until stiff, and cream the butter until fluffy. Add the sugar and egg yolks, then gradually add the flour. Add the milk and baking powder, raisins, and finally fold in the beaten egg whites. Pour into a sealable pudding pot; it can also be a large Bundt pan, tied with a cloth; the important thing is that it stays closed. Cook in a water bath for 1 1/2 hours, then let cool slightly and turn out. Lightly sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve. This goes best with a cherry compote with cinnamon or plum compote with rum and cinnamon, and whipped cream sweetened with real vanilla and a little sugar.
