Observed on September 19, this food holiday celebrates a simple and tasty dessert made with milk and egg yolks combined with butter, cornstarch and brown sugar spiced with salt and vanilla extract.
Butterscotch is a British invention, dating back to the 18th century. Originally referring to a hard candy, it now commonly refers to any sauce or flavor made from butter and brown sugar.
This food holiday is observed primarily in the USA, where people celebrate the classic dessert by making, sharing, and enjoying butterscotch pudding at home, in gatherings, and sometimes in workplaces.
