I never had Bread Pudding growing up and the concept seemed so strange to me. Our mom used to make milk toast for us when we were sick, so I thought it would taste like that - bland and slightly sweet. Since it's one of my husband's favorite desserts, I wanted to make it for him. Well, I was completely wrong - it's not at all like milk toast, but full of rich custard scented with Bourbon, vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon.

Oh, I love bread pudding...and like you, I know Dorie's versions are fabulous! YUM!
ReplyDeleteThis looks gorgeous! I might have to get Dorie's baking book and go deeper into my cookbook addiction. I grew up eating bread puddings and while I lived in New Orleans I got to see how sophisticated and delicious it could really be.
ReplyDeleteAdriana - How funny! That's where my husband grew up - it must be a southern thing. I know what you mean about having a cookbook addiction! I told my husband that at least he benefits from it, too.
