Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 pound day-old sourdough bread, crusts removed, cut into 1-inch cubes
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
10 sprigs winter savory or thyme, leaves only, finely chopped
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
1 pound Fresh Pork Sausage
2 leeks, white parts only, halved lengthwise, washed, and sliced into 1/4-inch half-moons
1 pound small fresh chanterelle mushrooms, cleaned and dried
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large green apple, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
2 cups heavy cream
5 large eggs
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons Persillade
Black truffle, thinly sliced, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a bowl, toss the bread cubes with melted butter and chopped savory. Transfer to a baking sheet and toast until crispy and golden, about 30 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 375 degrees.
  • In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil. Break up sausage into silver-dollar-sized pieces and add to skillet; cook thoroughly about 10 minutes. Transfer sausage to a large bowl and let cool.
  • Add remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil to skillet. Add leeks and mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until all the liquid has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Stir in apple and transfer mixture to bowl with sausage; let cool.

  • In a large bowl, whisk together cream, eggs, vinegar, 3/4 cup cheese, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and the persillade; pour over bread mixture. Cover baking dish tightly with parchment paper-lined aluminum foil and transfer to oven. Bake until a paring knife inserted into the center of the pudding comes out clean, about 1 hour.
  • Uncover and sprinkle pudding with remaining 3/4 cup cheese. Preheat the broiler; broil pudding until golden, about 3 minutes. Cut into squares and serve garnished with truffles if desired.

Savory Bread Pudding With Kale and Mushrooms image

These dishes, known also as strata, can be rich, but they are just as satisfying when made with low-fat milk. The formula works well for any number of cooked vegetables tossed with stale bread and mixed with milk, eggs and cheese.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, side dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 bunch kale, any type, stemmed and washed thoroughly in 2 changes of water (more if necessary)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 pound mushrooms, sliced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, coarsely chopped
1 to 2 garlic cloves (optional)
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 pound stale bread, preferably whole-grain, sliced about 1 inch thick
2 ounces Gruyère cheese, grated (1/2 cup)
1 ounce Parmesan cheese, grated (1/4 cup)
Salt and freshly ground pepper
4 eggs
2 cups low-fat milk

Steps:

  • Bring a medium or large pot of water to a boil, salt generously and add the kale. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, until tender but still colorful. Transfer to a bowl of cold water, then drain and squeeze out excess water. Chop coarsely and set aside.
  • If using garlic, cut one of the garlic cloves in half and rub the slices of bread with the cut side. Then mince all of the garlic. Cut the bread into 1-inch squares.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a heavy, wide skillet and add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring often, until they begin to soften, and add the thyme, garlic and salt and pepper to taste. Continue to cook for another minute or two, until the mushrooms are tender and fragrant. Stir in the kale, toss together and remove from the heat.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Oil or butter a 2-quart baking dish, soufflé dish or gratin. In a large bowl, combine the bread cubes, the mushrooms and kale, and the two cheeses and toss together. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
  • Beat together the eggs and milk. Add salt to taste and a few twists of the pepper mill, and pour over the bread mixture. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes before baking so that the bread can absorb some of the liquid.
  • Place in the oven and bake 40 to 50 minutes, until puffed and browned. Remove from the oven and serve hot or warm.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of breads for a more complex flavor and texture. Stale bread is best for bread pudding, as it will absorb more of the custard.
  • If you don't have any stale bread, you can dry it out in the oven at a low temperature (200°F) for about 30 minutes.
  • Use high-quality ingredients, such as fresh sausage, mushrooms, and cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the bread pudding.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bread pudding tough.
  • 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 allow it to set and firm up.

Conclusion:

Savory bread pudding is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a great way to use up leftover bread and other ingredients. With its rich flavor and satisfying texture, savory bread pudding is sure to become a family favorite.
