Directions

1

2489—ENGLISH BREAD PUDDING

2

Butter some thin slices of crumb of bread and distribute over them some currants and sultanas, swelled in tepid water and well drained. Set these slices in a pie-dish; cover with preparation No. 2638, and poach in front of the oven.

3

2490—FRENCH BREAD PUDDING

4

Soak two-thirds of a lb. of white bread-crumb in one and three-quarter pints of boiled milk, flavoured with vanilla and containing eight oz. of sugar. Rub through a sieve and add: four whole eggs, six egg-yolks, and four egg-whites, beaten to a stiff froth.

5

Pour this preparation into a deep, buttered border-mould, dusted with bread-crumbs; and poach in _bain-marie_.

6

As an accompaniment, serve either an English custard, a vanilla-flavoured sabayon, or a fruit sauce.

7

2491—GERMAN BREAD PUDDING

8

Soak two-thirds of a lb. of brown bread-crumb in one and three quarter pints of Rhine wine, Moselle or beer, containing half a lb. of moist sugar and a little cinnamon. Rub through a sieve and add four eggs, six egg-yolks, five oz. of melted butter, and the whites of four eggs beaten to a froth. Poach in a _bain-marie_ as in the preceding case. The adjunct to this pudding is invariably a fruit syrup.

9

2492—SCOTCH BREAD PUDDING

10

Proceed exactly as for No. 2490, but add five oz. of sliced seasonable fruit. Mould and poach in the same way, and serve a red-currant sauce flavoured with raspberries, as an accompaniment.
