Bread Pudding Description from Wikipedia:
Bread pudding is a bread-based dessert popular in many countries' cuisine, including that of Great Britain, France, Belgium, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Malta, Argentina, Louisiana Creole, and the southern United States. In other languages, its name is a translation of "bread pudding" or even just "pudding"; in Spanish, another name is "migas" (crumbs), or "budín" (a modified translation of "pudding"), and they also have a similar dish, capirotada.
It is made using stale (usually left-over) bread, suet, egg, sugar or golden syrup, spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, mace or vanilla, and dried fruit.
The bread is soaked (often overnight), squeezed dry, and mixed with the other ingredients. The mixture is transferred into a dish and baked.
It may be served with a sweet sauce of some sort, such as whiskey sauce, rum sauce, or caramel sauce, but is typically sprinkled with sugar and eaten cold in squares or slices. In Canada it is often made with maple syrup. In Malaysia, bread pudding is eaten with custard sauce. In Hong Kong, bread pudding is usually served with vanilla cream dressing.
Custard Description from Wikipedia:
Custard is a variety of culinary preparations based on a cooked mixture of milk or cream and egg yolk. Depending on how much egg or thickener is used, custard may vary in consistency from a thin pouring sauce (crème anglaise), to a thick pastry cream used to fill éclairs. The most common custards are used as desserts or dessert sauces and typically include sugar and vanilla. Custard bases may also be used for quiches and other savoury foods. Sometimes flour, corn starch, or gelatin is added as in pastry cream or creme patissiere. Custard is usually cooked in a double boiler (bain-marie), or heated very gently in a saucepan on a stove, though custard can also be steamed, baked in the oven with or without a hot water bath, or even cooked in a pressure cooker.
So there you have it!
Here are the Ingredients -
500g bread, 500g mixed dried fruit, 100g mixed peel, 1tsp mixed spice, 900ml milk, 1 tbsp caster sugar, 4 eggs, 2 beaten, 2 yolk only, 140g muscovado sugar, zest 1/2 lemon, 100g butter, 2 tbsp demerara sugar, 1 vanilla pod.

did your eggs curdle? you added the milk way too fast. try adding it gradually to temper the eggs

[myvirginkitchen]

@thasnap Got away with it - but you're right should give it a little longer cooling time just in case

[thasnap]

@myvirginkitchen Lol yea it an old culinary secret its the same with creme brule and holandaise sauce and the likes, If you add hot liquid to eggs you need to do it gradually whilst keep whisking to gradualy raise the tempeture of the eggs so they dont curdle. Its called 'Tempering the eggs'. All in all a good piece of pudding. Where did you get the recipe from?
