Next time I might try making the sauce with maple syrup instead of corn syrup for a maple-bourbon glaze, but I wanted to use up some corn syrup anyways, and it was good as is.<br /><br />I found it helpful to squish the bread down into the custard with a spatula after letting it soak, since a lot of the chunks might be left high and dry. I also switched on the broiler for a few minutes at the end to brown the top without overcooking the custard.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11399800315532144796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-66218163013015267032014-11-21T16:05:25.496-05:002014-11-21T16:05:25.496-05:00Almost 5 years late.

Served it up to a crowd who swore they were too full to eat another bite. Yeah right. 6 people polished it off in no time and my wife was upset since this is one of her favorite desserts. So..I'm making more today just for her. I followed the recipe exactly, maybe a few more raisins. i can't say enough about your recipes and videos. Best thing since my mom gave me her Good House Keeping pictorial cookbook 35 years ago when I left the nest.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12921502923823551017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-85234423329293304982014-01-22T12:29:28.636-05:002014-01-22T12:29:28.636-05:00I too am 3 years late!

We had a sizable snowstorm here yesterday and since Mr. Sun hasn't melted the white stuff off my car yet, I wasn't going to the store. I halved the recipe, didn't add the whiskey. I used 5 Tastykake Pecan Swirls (which no one would eat and I didn't want to throw out), and since it seemed like I needed more bread, 4 slices of store bought regular sandwich bread, 1/2 of a Kaiser roll and an egg knot roll all torn up (like I said, I used what I had!). I heated the milk (I don't know why) and added the (regular) raisins and dry ingredients (and a pinch of salt) to that, then let it cool slightly. Beat the eggs with the heavy cream, then added the milk mixture. I sprinkled chopped pecans all over the top and let it sit for 30 minutes in a glass casserole. Baked at 325 for 50 minutes. I didn't make the whiskey sauce, but might make a vanilla sauce. Right out of the oven... it is delicious! I love your videos and recipes - thanks for this bread pudding recipe!Anne Hastingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05670050142285326841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-83488959157310593212013-10-19T19:11:46.816-04:002013-10-19T19:11:46.816-04:00I know I'm 3 years late, but I'm just find...I know I'm 3 years late, but I'm just finding this recipe.

I respect you as a chef and I don't mean any ill will.. so please don't take it that way :) <br /><br />I tried your recipe on Friday/Saturday. I made a few mistakes but that was my own fault. Instead of whisking the eggs with the sugar before adding the liquids, I dumped everything in a bowl and mixed that together. It just took a little longer to combine everything. I also didn't have any allspice on hand so I used nutmeg instead. <br /><br />The bread pudding itself turned out wonderful however the I didn't like how the sauce came out. I made the sauce as directed but it must've been the corn syrup that gave it a not so pleasant after taste. I actually ended up using one of my friend's recipes which I've included below. <br /><br />Bourbon sauce<br />2 oz bourbon<br />1 cup half and half<br />3/4 cup brown sugar<br />1 egg, beaten<br />3 tbsp butter<br /><br />Put everything but the bourbon in a pan. Heat on low, stirring constantly until thickened. Add bourbon. Strain sauce to get rid of egg lumps. <br /><br />Sorry for the long comment.. but I hope this helps you out :)JadedOnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10914739051719987254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-50464483345625690712010-03-29T05:27:35.306-04:002010-03-29T05:27:35.306-04:00This is an alltime favourite with my kids.

Another thing ( did not try with this) my grandmother-in-law used to make raisin cookies. They were gone in flash. The key I think was she would soak the raisins and dates in brandy. I decided after she was gone to take the liquid she discarded from the soak and added brown sugar then bring to a simmer with some vanilla. Let it reduce to a syrup. Added that to the bread soak and a vanilla sauce. Outstanding. Give it a try.JustGoodDagwoodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17754354951223787589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-48763296976804136012010-03-26T15:17:45.758-04:002010-03-26T15:17:45.758-04:00@ the person who said he/she likes boozy raisins.....@ the person who said he/she likes boozy raisins....
