Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 unsliced rectangular loaf of brioche or good-quality firm white bread such as Pullman (1 pound), crusts discarded
4 cups blueberries (1 pound)
5 cups raspberries (18 ounces)
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Equipment: a deep 2 1/2-quart bowl (preferably 8 inches in diameter across top and 3 inches across bottom); a platter with a lip
1 platter with a lip
Accompaniment: lemon verbena ice cream

Steps:

  • Cut bread into 14 (1/2-inch-thick) slices. Cut out a 3-inch round from 1 slice and put in bottom of bowl. Line side of bowl with 10 slices, overlapping them slightly.
  • Bring berries, sugar, and lemon juice to a boil in a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat, then simmer, stirring occasionally, until berries collapse and release their juices, about 8 minutes. Spoon fruit into a sieve set over a bowl and let drain 15 minutes. Spoon drained fruit into bread-lined bowl (reserve juices) and cover completely with remaining bread, cutting bread to fit.
  • Pour juices evenly over bread, making sure all bread is saturated. Cover pudding directly with a piece of wax paper and place a 7-inch plate, upside down, on top of paper. Put a 1- to 1 1/2-pound weight (such as a large can) on plate and chill at least 8 hours.
  • Remove weight, plate, and wax paper and invert platter over bowl, then invert bowl onto platter. Carefully unmold.

SUMMER PUDDING WITH BLACKBERRIES AND PEACHES



Summer Pudding With Blackberries and Peaches image

Constructed from layers of soft, spongy sliced bread and tons of juicy, just-cooked fruit, this British dessert gets an update with a layer of barely sweetened whipped cream. It is the best thing since, well, sliced bread. Think of it as somewhere between a layer cake (where you don't have to bake any cake) and a tiramisù (where the coffee and chocolate is replaced by burst berries and juicy peaches). While the assembly should be a relaxed, messy affair, just be sure to adequately soak the bread so it reads as custardy, not dry.

Time 1h

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds/900 grams peaches or nectarines (about 5), pitted and sliced 1-inch thick
2/3 cup/140 grams granulated sugar, plus more for serving
1 tablespoon finely grated ginger (optional)
1 1/2 pounds/680 grams blackberries or raspberries, plus an extra handful for garnish
2 cups/480 milliliters heavy cream
1/4 cup/35 grams confectioners' sugar
1 cup/240 grams labneh, mascarpone or full-fat Greek yogurt
1 loaf brioche, pain de mie or Pullman bread (about 1 1/4 pounds), crusts removed, bread sliced 1-inch thick
Pinch of kosher salt

Steps:

  • Combine peaches, 1/3 cup sugar and the ginger, if using, in a medium pot over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, swirling occasionally, until the peaches have started to release their juices (but are not falling apart into mush), 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a medium bowl; set aside to cool completely.
  • Without rinsing out the pot (there's no need), combine the berries and remaining 1/3 cup sugar. Bring to a simmer and cook, swirling occasionally, until the berries have started to release their juices (but are not falling apart into mush), 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a medium bowl, separate from the peaches; set aside to cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, using an electric mixer or a whisk, beat cream and confectioners' sugar until spreadable, pillowy, medium peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes. Whisk in labneh until well blended.
  • Line a 9-inch springform cake pan with plastic wrap so that there is ample overhang. (A regular cake pan will also work; just make sure it has high sides or you might need to make the pudding in two vessels.)
  • Place one layer of sliced bread on the bottom. Cut the bread to fit as needed to make sure there is an even layer with no obvious gaps (aesthetics don't matter here, as it'll be covered up).
  • Spoon 1/3 of the berry juices onto the bread to thoroughly soak, followed by half of the berries themselves. Spoon 1/3 of the peach juices onto the bread and berries, followed by half of the peaches themselves.
  • Spread 1/3 of the cream mixture onto the fruit and top with another layer of bread, making sure to fill any obvious gaps with bread that's cut to fit. Top bread with another 1/3 of the berry juices and all of the remaining berries, followed by 1/3 of the peach juices and all of the remaining peaches. Top with 1/3 of the cream mixture, setting the remaining cream mixture aside in the refrigerator.
  • Place another layer of bread on top, making sure to fill any obvious gaps, especially around the edges, with bread that's cut to fit. Spoon remaining 1/3 of the blackberry and peach juices on top, making sure to stain the entire surface. Place a piece of plastic wrap on top and then place a plate on top of the plastic. Rest a heavy can (or another medium-sized, relatively heavy, food-safe object) on top to lightly compress the whole shebang. Refrigerate for at least four hours.
  • When you're ready to serve, crush a handful of berries with a sprinkling of sugar; let sit for a few minutes. Remove springform sides and plastic wrap. (If using a regular cake pan, lift the pudding out by the excess plastic and transfer the entire pudding to a plate, platter or cake stand, removing plastic wrap.)
  • Take the remaining heavy cream mixture and top the pudding, swirling in the crushed berries to create streaks and swirls. Slice (or spoon) the pudding and serve. Pudding can be assembled three days ahead, stored tightly wrapped and refrigerated.

SUMMER PUDDING TERRINE



Summer Pudding Terrine image

Fresh berries, dense white bread, and light-brown sugar are the only ingredients in this delicious summer pudding.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Vegetarian Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pound each blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and strawberries, hulls and stems removed, plus more for serving
1 cup packed light-brown sugar
2 pullman bread loaves, crusts removed, or any fresh dense white bakery bread (about 2 pounds total)
Double cream, clotted cream, or whipped cream for serving

Steps:

  • Cut a piece of cardboard to fit snugly inside a pullman loaf pan. Set aside. Place a half pound each of blueberries and blackberries in a large skillet; sprinkle with 1/2 cup brown sugar. Add 1/2 cup water; place skillet over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sugar is dissolved and berries soften and release juices, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, and stir in the reserved half pound each of blueberries and blackberries. Transfer berries and their juice to a bowl, and set aside until cooled. Repeat this procedure with the raspberries and strawberries, using same skillet, or simultaneously with another skillet.
  • Line the inside of a 13-by-4-by-4-inch pullman loaf pan with plastic wrap, making sure it overhangs the edges by about 4 inches on each side. Cut the bread into 3/8-inch-thick slices. Line the bottom and sides of the pan with the bread slices, trimming if needed. Slices must be cut to fit snugly, with no gaps between them and no overlap.
  • Using a slotted spoon, place the blueberry mixture in the bottom of the prepared terrine in an even layer, leaving the juices in the bowl. Press down lightly to make a flat layer. With the slotted spoon, spoon in the raspberry mixture over the layer of blueberry mixture. Cover the terrine evenly with a layer of bread. Strain and combine the reserved juices through a fine sieve into a glass measuring cup. Discard the solids, and pour the juice evenly over the terrine, until it is almost full. Don't overfill, or juice will spill out when pressed down. Reserve any excess juice for unmolding. Press down gently with your hands to compress terrine; fold excess plastic wrap over to cover. Place reserved cardboard over terrine; weigh down with soup cans or jars of jam.
  • Chill overnight weighted, so the bread is pressed into the berries and their juice. Unmold onto a serving platter. Use reserved berry juices to brush over pale spots if needed. Cut crosswise into 3/4-inch slices; serve with more berries and cream.

SUMMER BERRY PUDDING



Summer Berry Pudding image

Provided by Chuck Hughes

Categories     dessert

Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 cups assorted summer fruit (like blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries) plus more for garnish, well-rinsed and drained, and fresh or frozen cranberries, thawed
1 cup sugar (add more sugar if using cranberries or red or black currants)
1 loaf homemade-style, sliced white bread, crusts removed
1 pint heavy cream, for garnish
2 tablespoons brown sugar, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, add the fruit (reserving a few berries for garnish). Add the sugar and cook until the fruit is starting to release some liquid, is tender and beginning to burst, but still holds its shape, about 5 minutes.
  • Line a large 6-cup pudding bowl with plastic wrap, allowing lots of overhang.
  • Remove the crusts from 10 to 12 slices of bread. Press the bread slices briefly in the juices at the top of the berries in the pot then lay them into the bowl, juice-side down, ensuring there are no spaces. Use smaller pieces to overlap or close gaps in spaces, as needed.
  • Remove the berries from the heat, and cool slightly. Using a slotted spoon, spoon the fruit into the bread-lined bowl, and top with a final layer of bread and spoon a bit more of the juices over the top to color the top layer of bread evenly. Reserve the remaining cooking juices for serving. Cover with the plastic wrap and place a plate over the top. Add a large heavy can or a 2-pound weight to the plate and let sit at least 8 hours, or overnight, refrigerated.
  • On serving, whip the cream until soft peaks just begin to form. Add the sugar and whip until almost stiff.
  • Gently invert the bowl onto a large serving dish, shaking it lightly to loosen. Peel the plastic wrap off, and spoon the reserved juice all over, to soak any bits of bread that still look white. Serve with a bowl of whipped cream on the side, or cut individual wedges, and add a dollop of cream and a berry or two for garnish.

PEACH AND BERRY SUMMER PUDDING

Categories     dessert

Time 8h35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pint fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 half-pints fresh raspberries, divided
2 half-pints fresh blueberries
1 pound peaches, peeled and 1/2-inch diced
2 tablespoons framboise (raspberry brandy)
1 loaf brioche or egg bread (1 to 1 1/2 pounds)
Whipped Cream, for serving (recipe follows)
1 cup cold heavy cream
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Combine the strawberries, sugar, and 1/4 cup of water in a large saucepan and cook uncovered over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Add 2 half-pints of the raspberries and all of the blueberries and peaches and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches a simmer. Simmer for 1 minute. Off the heat, stir in the remaining raspberries and the framboise.
  • Slice the bread into 1/2-inch-thick slices and remove the crusts. In the bottom of a 7 1/2-inch round by 3-inch high soufflé or baking dish, ladle about 1/2 cup of the cooked fruit mixture. Arrange slices of bread on top in a pattern (this will become the top when the pudding is unmolded) and then add more fruit mixture to saturate. Continue adding bread, cutting it to fit the mold, and fruit. Finish with bread and cooked fruit, using all of the fruit and syrup.
  • Place a sheet of plastic wrap loosely over the pudding. Find a plate approximately the same diameter as the inside of the mold and place it on top. Weight the mold with a heavy can and refrigerate overnight.
  • Just before serving, run a knife around the outside of the pudding and unmold it upside down onto a serving plate. Serve in wedges with whipped cream.
  • Whip the cream in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. When it starts to thicken, add the sugar and vanilla. Continue to whip until it forms stiff peaks. Serve cold.

Here's what you need: raspberry, blackberry, blueberry, sugar, white breads, whipped cream, fresh mint

Provided by Rie McClenny

Categories     Snacks

Time 6h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups raspberry, plus more for garnish
2 cups blackberry, plus more for garnish
2 cups blueberry, plus more for garnish
1 cup sugar
20 white breads
2 cups whipped cream, lightly sweetened
fresh mint, for garnish

Steps:

  • Add the raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, and sugar to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries have softened but are still mostly intact and the sugar just dissolves. Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Strain the berries through a fine-mesh sieve set over a liquid measuring cup. Add water as needed so you have 1½ cups (360 ml) of liquid total. Pour the liquid into a shallow dish. Reserve the fruit and the liquid.
  • Trim the crusts off the bread. Cut the bread in half down the middle.
  • Line a 2-quart bowl with enough plastic wrap to hang over the edges at least 4 inches (10 cm) all around.
  • Dip a half slice of bread at a time in the reserved berry juice, then line the sides of the wrapped bowl, overlapping slightly. Some slices can hang over the side of the bowl. Line the center of the bowl once the sides are covered.
  • Spoon the reserved berries into the center of the lined bowl. Fold the bread over the berries, then dip the remaining bread in the berry juice and cover the center, overlapping slightly. Pour any remaining juice over the pudding.
  • Cover the pudding with the plastic wrap. Place a small plate on top and weigh down with a can. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, up to overnight.
  • When ready to serve, remove the plate and the can and peel back the plastic. Place a serving platter over the bowl and quickly flip both the bowl and platter over to invert the pudding. Remove the bowl and plastic wrap.
  • Top the pudding with the whipped cream, more berries, and fresh mint leaves. Slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!
