Bread And Butter Pudding With Strawberries Food

STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter the bottom and sides of an 8 inch square baking dish with the melted butter.
• Toss bread with the chopped strawberries, and place into the prepared pan. Beat the eggs, milk, cream, strawberry preserves, sugar, and vanilla in a medium bowl until frothy. Pour over the bread and lightly press down with a spatula until the bread has absorbed the milk mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top springs back when lightly tapped.

BUTTERSCOTCH BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• In a large bowl, combine bread, milk, sugar, butter, eggs, vanilla and butterscotch chips; mixture should be the consistency of oatmeal. Pour into prepared pan.
• Bake in preheated oven 1 hour, until nearly set. (It should have a "thigh wiggle" or wiggle as much as a well endowed thigh.) Serve warm or cold.

BREAD-AND-BUTTER PUDDING WITH STRAWBERRIES

Steps:

• Whisk together eggs, milk, heavy cream, 3 tablespoons sugar, and rum. Set aside.
• Spread top of each slice of bread with generous amount of butter. Cut slices in half diagonally. In a 9-inch-round baking dish or cake pan, fan overlapping slices in one layer. It is also fine for bread to overlap randomly. Pour egg mixture over bread, and let stand 1 hour.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Sprinkle pudding with 2 tablespoons sugar. Bake until puffed and golden brown, and pudding has set, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine strawberries with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Let stand while pudding bakes. Serve strawberries with baked pudding.

BREAD AND BUTTER PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• In a saucepan over low heat, add the cream, the scraped vanilla bean and the seeds (or extract) and 1/2 cup of sugar. Whisk to combine. Bring the cream to a boil. While the cream is coming to a boil, whisk the yolks and 1/2 cup sugar together until they are a homogeneous mixture. When the cream comes to a boil, remove it from the heat and whisk in 1/3 of the egg yolk mixture, then immediately whisk in the remaining egg mixture. This is called tempering, it allows you to combine hot cream and eggs without making scrambled eggs. It's kinda fun! Reserve this mixture until you are ready to assemble the pudding.
• To assemble the pudding:
• Butter 1 side of the slices of bread and cut them into triangles. Butter an 8 by 8-inch square baking dish and put a layer of bread points, overlapping, in the bottom of the dish. Strain the raisins reserving the whiskey. Sprinkle half of the whiskey soaked raisins on top of the bread layer. Pour half of the cream/egg mixture over the bread and raisins. Repeat this process with the bread and raisins and finally finish with bread. Pour the remaining cream/egg mixture into the dish. Press down gently on the whole thing to compress and really compact the pudding. If all of the cream mixture doesn't fit into the pan, wait 10 to 15 minutes and then try again. The bread may need a little while to absorb all the cream. MMMMM& don't skimp on this step.
• Set the bread pudding dish inside a 9 by 13-inch baking dish or roasting pan and add hot water until it reaches 1/2 to 2/3 of the way up the sides of the pudding dish. Cover the whole thing with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven until the custard has set, about 1 hour.
• Remove the pudding from the water bath and let it cool for 10 minutes. Sprinkle the top of the custard with the remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a thin even layer. Put the pudding under the broiler or use a blow torch (This is REALLY fun!) to crystallize the sugar on the top of the pudding. A little bit crusty and burnt and sweeeeeeet! YuuuuuummmY! Serve with the whiskey tea sauce.
• To make the sauce:
• While the pudding is baking, combine all the ingredients and the reserved Irish whiskey in a small saucepan and let steep for 15 minutes. Discard the tea bags and the lemon half. Bring the sauce to a boil and then lower the heat and simmer until the liquid has reduced by half. Taste, the sauce should be very pungent, sweet and spicy (cinnamon and clove--not spicy hot) and a perfect accompaniment to the creamy sweet pudding.
• MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM&MMMMMM&.MMM!

STOLLEN BREAD AND BUTTER PUDDING

Steps:

• Slice the Stollen thinly and spread one side with butter.
• Stack in slightly angled layers in a large lightly buttered oven proof dish.
• Scatter cherries in between layers, if desired.
• TO PREPARE THE CUSTARD:.
• Beat the eggs and the yolks with the cream, milk, superfine sugar and the almond extract.
• Slowly pour over the Stollen slices, pressing them down into the liquid so they are well soaked.
• Refrigerate for one to two hours or until custard mixture is absorbed.
• TO BAKE THE PUDDING:.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the dish in a roasting pan and when ready to bake, pour boiling water in the roasting pan to come halfway up the baking dish sides.
• Carefully place in the oven and bake for about 40 minutes or until the top is light golden brown and crisp.
• Cool for 10-15 minutes.
• Sift powdered sugar over the top. Serve with warm custard.
