SAVORY BREAD PUDDING



Savory Bread Pudding image

I love bread pudding, but in New Orleans they do savory ones to accompany meat-centric dishes. Not the lightest of fare, but the mushroom duxelles makes the day.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened, plus more for greasing the pan
4 large eggs

3 ounces cognac
Sea salt and cracked black pepper
1 sourdough batard, such as Acme bakery loaf, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
12 ounces fresh king trumpet mushrooms
3 shallots, peeled and halved
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 spring onion, peeled and sliced thinly

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 3-quart casserole dish with butter.
  • Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, cognac and some salt and pepper in a large bowl. Place the bread slices into the egg-cream mixture and let sit for 5 minutes.
  • Cut the mushrooms into large dice and add to food processor along with the shallots and process until finely, finely chopped. Put a large cast-iron pan over medium-high heat and add 4 tablespoons of the butter. Once the pan is heated, add the mushroom/shallot mixture and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Turn the heat under a medium cast-iron pan to medium-high and add the oil. Once heated, add the sliced spring onion and sear until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes total.
  • To assemble, first put a third of the bread in the prepared casserole dish, then half of the mushroom duxelles, half of the seared onion and another third of the bread. Press down and top with the remaining mushroom duxelles and onions. Top with the remaining bread and dot with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Put into the oven and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

MEAT LOVERS SANDWICH ROLL RECIPE BY TASTY



Meat Lovers Sandwich Roll Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: sandwich bread, large egg, mayonnaise, provolone cheese, mortadella, ham, capicola, pepperoni, salami, peperoncini, unsalted butter, garlic powder, italian seasoning

Provided by Claire Nolan

Categories     Lunch

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 slices sandwich bread
1 large egg, beaten
¼ cup mayonnaise
9 slices provolone cheese
5 slices mortadella
8 slices ham
12 slices capicola
14 slices pepperoni
16 slices salami
1 cup peperoncini
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon italian seasoning

Steps:

  • Place a slice of bread on top of a piece of plastic wrap on large cutting board. Brush the right edge of the bread with egg wash and place the left edge of another slice of bread over the brushed edge, pressing together firmly. Repeat with the rest of the bread so you have a rectangle of 4 slices across and 3 slices down.
  • Using a rolling pin, roll out the bread so all of the pieces of bread are sealed together.
  • Spread mayonnaise over the bread, then arrange the sliced provolone across, starting about ¼ of the way up the bread. Layer on the mortadella, ham, capicola, pepperoni, salami, and peperoncini.
  • Starting at the bottom, roll the sandwich tightly, then cover snugly with plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl, melt the butter in the microwave for 1 minute, stirring every 15 seconds, or until fully melted. Mix in the garlic powder and Italian seasoning.
  • Transfer the sandwich roll to the baking sheet. Brush the outside with the garlic butter and bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Let the roll sit for 5 minutes before cutting into thick slices.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients, especially the bread and the meat.
  • Don't overmix the bread pudding batter. Overmixing will make the pudding dense and tough.
  • If you're using ground meat, cook it thoroughly before adding it to the bread pudding batter.
  • Bake the bread pudding until it is set in the center. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  • Let the bread pudding cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.

Meat lovers bread pudding is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a crowd. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its combination of savory and sweet flavors, meat lovers bread pudding is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
