Bread Pudding

Bread pudding is a classic dessert that has its origins in medieval Europe. It is a simple yet delicious concoction, typically made by combining stale bread, milk, eggs, sugar, and various spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or vanilla. This mixture is then baked until it reaches a custard-like consistency, often with a golden-brown crust on top, making it an ideal dish to utilize leftover bread while still satisfying one's sweet tooth. Often served warm or at room temperature, bread pudding can be customized with an array of additional ingredients, such as dried fruits, nuts, chocolate chips, or even a caramel or whiskey sauce drizzled on top. The home cook seeking an easy-to-make, versatile dessert will find that bread pudding fits the bill and offers a comforting, indulgent treat to enjoy.

Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Bread Pudding expire?
Bread pudding is typically safe to eat if consumed within 4 days while properly stored in the refrigerator, but should be eaten immediately if left at room temperature for more than 2 hours. While you can freeze bread pudding, it might slightly alter the texture once thawed. If you do choose to freeze it, make sure it is fully cooled first, covered tightly in an air tight container, and consume it within 2 to 3 months for the best quality.
How do you tell if Bread Pudding is bad?
Spoiled bread pudding may grow mould, have a sour or off-putting smell, or adopt a slimy or excessively moist texture on the surface. Checking visually and using your sense of smell will give clear signals that your pudding has gone past its prime. And remember, when there’s any doubt about the freshness of any food, the best course of action is to throw it out.
Tips for storing Bread Pudding to extend shelf life
• Cool the bread pudding thoroughly before storing. Hot foods can raise the temperature of your fridge and impact other stored items. • Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent any outside influences from getting in. • Consume immediately once reheated from frozen to enjoy the best texture. • Slice the pudding into single-serving pieces before freezing, for ease of defrosting and quick enjoyment.
