A little easy preparation, plus time, yields a gorgeous old-fashioned English dessert that showcases summer berries in the most glorious way. The bread retains a bit of its texture and absorbs all the natural juices exuded by the berries for a cool, smooth intensity.

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.

[email protected]The summer pudding was delicious, although the texture of the pudding was a little denser than I prefer. I didn't have ripe enough berries, which may have contributed to the denser texture. The flavors were great, though, and my guests loved it.

[email protected]I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my summer pudding turned out a bit dry. The berries were still juicy, but the pudding itself was just a bit too firm. I think I'll try again with a different recipe.

[email protected]This summer pudding was a bit of a disappointment. The berries were tart and the pudding was bland. I think I'll stick to my usual summer pudding recipe.
