Savorybreadpudding Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a bowl, toss the bread cubes with melted butter and chopped savory. Transfer to a baking sheet and toast until crispy and golden, about 30 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 375 degrees.
• In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil. Break up sausage into silver-dollar-sized pieces and add to skillet; cook thoroughly about 10 minutes. Transfer sausage to a large bowl and let cool.
• Add remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil to skillet. Add leeks and mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until all the liquid has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Stir in apple and transfer mixture to bowl with sausage; let cool.
• Brush a 9-inch square baking dish with olive oil. Add bread cubes to bowl with sausage and leek mixture; toss to combine and transfer to baking dish.
• In a large bowl, whisk together cream, eggs, vinegar, 3/4 cup cheese, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and the persillade; pour over bread mixture. Cover baking dish tightly with parchment paper-lined aluminum foil and transfer to oven. Bake until a paring knife inserted into the center of the pudding comes out clean, about 1 hour.
• Uncover and sprinkle pudding with remaining 3/4 cup cheese. Preheat the broiler; broil pudding until golden, about 3 minutes. Cut into squares and serve garnished with truffles if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 3-quart casserole dish with butter.
• Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, cognac and some salt and pepper in a large bowl. Place the bread slices into the egg-cream mixture and let sit for 5 minutes.
• Cut the mushrooms into large dice and add to food processor along with the shallots and process until finely, finely chopped. Put a large cast-iron pan over medium-high heat and add 4 tablespoons of the butter. Once the pan is heated, add the mushroom/shallot mixture and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
• Turn the heat under a medium cast-iron pan to medium-high and add the oil. Once heated, add the sliced spring onion and sear until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes total.
• To assemble, first put a third of the bread in the prepared casserole dish, then half of the mushroom duxelles, half of the seared onion and another third of the bread. Press down and top with the remaining mushroom duxelles and onions. Top with the remaining bread and dot with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Put into the oven and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400ºF (205ºC). Lightly grease a 10-inch (25 cm) square baking dish.
• Preheat a 6-quart (5.7 L) pot over medium heat. Sauté the onion and celery in the olive oil with a pinch of salt until onion is lightly browned, about 7 minutes. Stir in the onion powder, sage, thyme, rosemary, 1 teaspoon salt, and several dashes of pepper and turn off the heat.
• Put the bread cubes in a large mixing bowl. Add the cooked vegetable mixture and toss to thoroughly coat. Pour in the vegetable broth, ½ cup (120 ml) at a time, mixing well after each addition. The bread should be moist but not soggy, so you may not need to add all the broth.
• Transfer the stuffing mixture to the prepared casserole dish. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool a bit before serving.

Steps:

• Saute onion in butter until slightly cooked. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
• In large bowl, whisk the eggs.
• Add the milk, wine or broth, and whisk again.
• Tear the buns into medium to large pieces and add into the milk mixture.
• Soak for 5 minutes.
• Add the onion mixture, cheeses, dijon, paprika, cayenne and salt/pepper.
• Grease a casserole dish or deep pie plate.
• Bake at 325 degrees for 35 minutes or so.

Steps:

• Place bread cubes in a greased 9x9 inch baking dish.
• Combine remaining ingredients.
• Pour over bread cubes.
• Place in oven and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until knife comes out clean.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 190C (170C Fan).
• Using a serrated knife, slice the very top of the garlic bulb off. Rub with the olive oil and wrap tightly in foil. Roast for 40-45 minutes until the cloves are soft and lightly caramelised.
• Once the garlic is cooled squeeze the contents of each clove into a bowl and mash with a fork. Blend in the softened butter & thyme leaves.
• Spread the butter mixture over both sides of each slice of brioche.
• Grease a 30cm x 20cm roasting dish with butter. Arrange the brioche slices in one overlapping layer so they all fit in snugly.
• In a large jug whisk together the eggs, milk & double cream. Pour this mixture evenly over the brioche.
• Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes until the egg mixture is set and the top is a crusty golden brown.

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.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Heat olive oil in a cast iron pan, and cook onion and rosemary in oil until onion is soft.
• Toss bread cubes with olive oil and onions. Exact measurement of bread is not necessary. Place in a well oiled, deep sided, 9 inch square pan. Toss with 1/2 cheese, and sprinkle remaining cheese over the top.
• Beat together milk, cream, and eggs. Pour over bread in pan. It is fine that the bread sticks out of the custard.
• Bake for 1 hour, or until browned and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean (except for melted cheese).
