Best 9 Easy Bread Sauce Recipes

BEAUTIFUL BREAD SAUCE

Steps:

• Peel the onion, leaving it whole, then spike it with the cloves.
• Put the spiked onion into a medium saucepan with the bay leaves, milk and a few pinches of sea salt and black pepper. Finely grate in a few scrapings of nutmeg.
• Place the pan on a high heat and bring to the boil - keep a close eye on it as milk comes to the boil very suddenly. Reduce to a low heat and simmer very gently for 5 minutes to let the flavours infuse. Remove from the heat and leave to stand for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut the crusts off of the ciabatta loaves. Tear 1½ loaves into chunks and pulse them in a food processor until you have coarse breadcrumbs.
• Strain the milk through a sieve into a jug, discarding everything left behind in the sieve.
• Return the milk to the pan and bring back to the boil over a high heat. Reduce to a medium heat and simmer, gradually stirring in the breadcrumbs until you've used them all up.
• Add the butter and cream to the pan, stir well, then have a taste and season with a little more salt and pepper, if needed.
• Have a look at the sauce - you want it to be the perfect consistency for you. If it's too runny, blitz the remaining ciabatta and add some more breadcrumbs, if it's a little thick, add more milk. Transfer to a jug or bowl and serve.
• If you're making this for another day, you want the consistency to be a little looser than you'd like as it will thicken as it sits, so add a bit more milk. When you're happy with the consistency, spoon into a bowl and leave to cool. Once cool, cover the bowl with cling film and place in the fridge until Christmas Day.

• Remove the onion from the pan and keep to one side (read below why you would want to keep the onion.)
• Add the breadcrumbs, to the pan, stir with a wooden spoon until the mixture thickens and becomes smoother (you do not want the sauce to be completely smooth, it should still have the texture of the bread.)

• Enjoy.
