Number Of Ingredients 9

6 eggs
1 cup milk

Pinch cayenne pepper
Kosher salt

Nonstick cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs to a homogeneous mixture. Whisk in the milk, cream, gruyere and cayenne. Sprinkle the mixture with salt. Toss in the herbs and bread and let sit for 1 hour.

GARLIC AND HERB BREAD



Garlic and Herb Bread image

This is wonderful with spaghetti, lasagna, or another Italian dish, but my family likes it with almost anything. It's very good if made the day before you need it, then split down the middle, buttered, and reheated at mealtime. I use a bread machine, but it can be made without. I like to use the dough cycle, then bake it in a French loaf pan.

SCARBOROUGH FAIR - SAVOURY BACON, ONION AND HERB BREAD PUDDING



Scarborough Fair - Savoury Bacon, Onion and Herb Bread Pudding image

I named this dish after my home town, Scarborough, in the North of England - and yes, they really do have a "Scarborough Fayre" every year! And, this recipe does contain "parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme"! This is a very old recipe for savoury bread pudding - often served before the meal, just as Yorkshire Pudding used to be, to take the edge of your appetite & stop you eating too much meat! I added the bacon, but normally it is just made with pounded stale bread mixed with herbs, chives or onions, eggs and any dripping that was available. A delicious savoury dish - serve it with lashings of onion gravy as a light supper, brunch or lunch dish, or as an appetiser, also with gravy. This makes a wonderful accompaniment to roast pork and roast chicken. I have also been known to eat slices of this cold & it's ideal for picnics. Don't throw your crusts away, but process them in a food mixer and freeze them in zip-lock bags.....voila, ready made bread crumbs!

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

400 g whole meal bread, crusts removed
300 ml hot vegetable stock or 300 ml ham stock
4 large onions, peeled and finely chopped
200 g smoked lardons or 200 g smoked bacon, cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon chopped fresh sage
1/4 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
3 large eggs, beaten
3 ounces shredded vegetable suet or 3 ounces melted butter
salt
black pepper

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 190C/375F/gas mark 5.
  • Grease a large baking dish or tray about 12" by 8" in size.
  • Tear the bread into small pieces and pour the hot stock over the bread - mix well and allow to soak for about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, cook the bacon over a medium to high heat; as soon as the fat starts to run, add the chopped onions. Stirring the bacon and onions constantly, cook them together for about 15-20 minutes, or until the onions are soft and the bacon is crisp.
  • Add the bacon and onion mixture to the soaked bread and mix well.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients - continue to mix them together thoroughly.
  • Pour the bread pudding into the greased dish or tray, level the mixture out with a spoon and bake for 40 to 50 minutes until well risen, firm to the touch and golden brown.
  • Take out of the oven and allow to "rest" for 5 minutes before cutting into squares.
  • Serves 4 people as a light supper or lunch dish with gravy and 6 people as an appetiser, also with gravy if you wish.
  • Also great for picnics, brunch or breakfast.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of herbs and spices to add flavor to your bread pudding. Some good options include garlic, thyme, rosemary, sage, and nutmeg.
  • If you don't have any stale bread, you can toast fresh bread in the oven until it's dry and crispy.
  • Be sure to use a baking dish that is large enough to accommodate the bread pudding. A 9x13 inch baking dish is a good size.
  • Cover the bread pudding with foil during baking to prevent the top from getting too brown.
  • Let the bread pudding cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Garlic and herb bread pudding is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its savory flavor and moist texture, this bread pudding is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give garlic and herb bread pudding a try.
