SAVORY BREAD PUDDING WITH ARTICHOKES, CHEDDAR AND SCALLIONS



Savory Bread Pudding With Artichokes, Cheddar and Scallions image

Tangy marinated artichokes star in this cheesy, golden-topped casserole, which is layered with scallions, Cheddar and baguette cubes that get crisp at the edges. Look for the best-quality marinated artichoke hearts, then taste them before using. If they seem very acidic, give them a rinse and pat them dry before proceeding.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     breakfast, brunch, casseroles, main course

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Unsalted butter, for greasing the pan and foil
2 1/4 cups milk
6 large eggs
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large baguette (10 to 12 ounces), cut into 1-inch cubes
12 ounces marinated artichoke hearts, drained (2 cups) and rinsed, if needed to decrease acidity
6 scallions, trimmed and cut into 2-inch lengths
3/4 packed cup parsley leaves, plus more for serving
1 large garlic clove, finely grated or minced
1 teaspoon Tabasco or other hot sauce, plus more for serving
8 ounces grated Cheddar (2 cups)
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Generously butter a 2-quart shallow casserole or gratin dish. Butter one side of a piece of foil large enough to cover the dish during baking.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together milk, eggs and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Gently toss in baguette cubes, and let the mixture sit while you prepare the remaining ingredients, stirring it occasionally.
  • In a food processor, pulse together the artichokes, scallions, parsley, garlic, hot sauce and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt until finely chopped. (Alternatively, you can chop everything finely by hand.)
  • Scoop half the soaked bread into the casserole dish and arrange in an even layer. Top with half the artichoke mixture and half the cheese. Repeat layers of bread, artichokes and cheese. Cover with aluminum foil, buttered-side down.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, then remove foil. Continue to bake until golden at the edges and springy in the middle, about 15 minutes. (If you'd like, broil on low for 1 to 2 minutes for a more browned top.) Let cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Squeeze a lemon wedge over the top and sprinkle with parsley. Serve with more hot sauce on the side.

SAVORY BREAD PUDDING WITH CORN, CHEDDAR AND THYME



SAVORY BREAD PUDDING WITH CORN, CHEDDAR AND THYME image

Categories     Casserole/Gratin

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the pan
8 cups (1 lb) good quality dense white bread, such as Italian or French bread, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 medium yellow onion finely chopped (about 1 1⁄2 cups)
Kosher salt and fresh black pepper
3 cups (16 oz) frozen sweet white corn kernels, preferably organic
1/2 cup chopped green onions, including green parts (about 4 green onions)
1 clove garlic, minced 1 tablespoon sweet paprika
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
2 cups whole milk
3⁄4 cup cream
4 large eggs
1 1/2 cups shredded white cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Generously butter a 3-quart or 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Spread the bread cubes on a large rimmed baking sheet. Toast in the oven, stirring occasionally, until the bread is lightly golden, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees. In a sauté pan over medium heat, melt the 2 tablespoons butter. Add the yellow onion and a pinch of salt and sauté until translucent and just starting to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the corn, green onions, garlic, paprika, thyme and a big pinch of salt and sauté until the vegetables are warmed through and fragrant, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, cream, eggs, half the cheese, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and some freshly ground black pepper. Scrape the corn mixture into the milk mixture and stir to combine. Add the toasted bread cubes, and toss to combine. Scrape the mixture into the prepared baking dish, distributing the ingredients evenly, and set aside for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally and pressing down on the bread cubes to evenly distribute the liquid.

Yield 4

3 slices bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 small onion, chopped
¼ cup softened butter
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
9 slices white bread, crusts removed
2 eggs
1 cup milk
