Islander58 Posted January 22, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Hi, I just realized that we have an old HAL cookbook - with the original Bread Pudding recipe! I was thrilled and thought other sailors might be too! They have changed the recipe- but this is the original! 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cbr663 Posted January 22, 2023 #3 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I hope this is correct. Classic Bread and Butter Pudding 1 ½ pounds good quality day-old sliced white bread, crusts trimmed and slices cut into cubes 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 1 quart whole milk 6 eggs, beaten 3 egg yolks, beaten ¾ cup sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract ¾ cup raisins Confectioner’s sugar for sprinkling Preheat oven to 325 F. Butter 8 ramekins with 12 ounce capacity or a 9 inch x 13 inch baking dish. Have on hand a roasting pan large enough to hold the ramekins or baking dish, and line it with a folded kitchen towel. Place bread cubes in a bowl and drizzle and toss with the melted butter. Spread out on a baking dish and toast in the oven, stirring once, until lightly golden, about 8 - 10 mins. In a saucepan bring milk to a simmer over medium heat. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk whole eggs, egg yolks and sugar until blended. Gradually whisk in hot milk. Stir in vanilla. Divide half the bread cubes among your ramekins or layer in baking dish. Top with half the raisins. Cover with remaining bread cubes and raisins. Ladle custard evenly over bread cubes and raisins. Let stand until some of the custard is absorbed, about 20 mins. Bring a large kettle of water to a boil. Place ramekins or baking dish in large roasting pan and transfer to the oven. Add enough boiling water to the roasting pan to reach half-way up the ramekins or baking dish. Bake puddings in the middle of the oven for 45 minutes, or until puffed and just set. Carefully remove roasting pan from oven and remove dishes. Let cool slightly and serve while warm , sprinkled with confectioner’s sugar. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taste and ad sugar or flavoring when needed, strain. Keep warm and serve with the bread pudding. When you make a cold vanilla sauce replace cornstarch with egg yolks Uh oh... how much milk!? 🙂 Thanks! (and for all of the recipes above!) We haven't had bread pudding in ages.

Bread pudding is available at the Lido Market at either the ice cream counter or at the Bread Station (Rotterdam). You have to ask for it.

I like to refrigerate for at least 8 hours before baking. I also vary the type of bread. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare FlaMariner Posted January 23, 2023 #11 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Her Majesty says THANK YOU for the recipe. It is always so good. I've eaten certainly a full "Zaandam boat load" of it over the years and always enjoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbob22 Posted January 23, 2023 #12 Share Posted January 23, 2023 fwiw, based on eating some of it, the bread used looked like a brioche-type bread, actually looked very much like challah--a braided bread, typically kind of eggy. Challah also makes excellent French toast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickalily, Wilts Posted January 23, 2023 #13 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I can see that you bread pudding fans are very happy with the recipe, but as a Brit there seems to be something vital that's missing.🙂 You may think that's heresy, but bear with me while I throw another ingredient into the mix.......... These days I prefer savoury to sweet food, but that wasn't always the case. My grandma used to make a mean bread pudding and hers contained a few teaspoons of ground mixed spice (typically cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, caraway and one or two others). The aroma in the kitchen was heavenly and the result didn't last very long once the family descended upon it. Just a thought. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fairly close so some French Quarter bread pudding concoctions. If you ever have left over brioche or challah, try using that as the bread.

SusieKIslandGirl Posted January 24, 2023 #22 Share Posted January 24, 2023 And besides the vanilla sauce, the addition of a rum caramel sauce tops it off very well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pet72Vet Posted January 29, 2023 #23 Share Posted January 29, 2023 I love Bread Pudding and will try the aforementioned Holland America recipes. As for my favorite "go to" recipe in the past, I've always used the renowned Biltmore Bread Pudding recipe. This pdf magazine excerpt was from a 2007 publication which included the Biltmore Bread Pudding Recipe. Enjoy...it really is a classic!

gdy0354 Posted January 30, 2023 #24 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Was on Niew Statendam a few weeks back. Interesting that the first few days of a back-to-back cruise, there were no raisins in the bread pudding. After that there were raisins in all batches.
