Bread and Butter Pud

cuddlymarm

Hi

I've got a glut of bread that needs to be used so I'm thinking of making a big bread and butter pudding but can anyone tell me whether its OK to warm up later (theres only 2 of us so there might be leftovers and i hate waste of any kind)

:rotfl: :rotfl:

Hi there, I love b and b pudding and I personally think it tastes better warmed up second time around - not sure why. The only problem I could think of is the eggs in it so if you weren't planning to eat within a few days I would freeze it first.......HTH

it'll heat up fine, I often make a big batch & it lasts us 2 or 3 days, keep it in the fridge between times though

it's also delicious cold, in fact it often never lasts long enough to get re-heated in our house because we're always cutting off a slice & scoffing it in the passing

There's only 2 of us too and as long as its kept in the fridge it'll be fine for a good few days - if you're worried though cut it up into portions and freeze it. Having said that I usually make a bread pud (as opposed to b & b pud) which is a bit more 'cakey'.

Delish warmed up with custard....:D

in France bakeries make a thing called 'boudin' (sp?)

it's made like bread pudding but has all yesterday's left over cakes & bread in it, it's often flavoured with chocolate & glazed with water icing, then sold in slices from the huge tray it's baked in

it's different every day, because you never know what's going to be in it, but it's always delicious

That's interesting, I've not heard of sweet boudin.

I know of the black and white sausage versions, like our black pudding - careful what you ask for then, could be in for a nasty surprise. Mind you you're not likely to be served the wrong thing if you're in a boulangerie I suppose!

lol at the thought of a mix up

the word for it sounded like a cross between boudin & putain!

I had to google that!

:eek: oooo-er!

We could go on and on with the double entendres (while we're on a french streak) with sausages and putains .... but that's a whole different thread.
