So last night Jon Abad and I tackled White Challa Bread Pudding.
Just to give you an understanding of how good this is, I’m going to give you some short information about the ingredients to this masterpiece.
3 Cups Heavy Cream -> 400% of your daily sat fat.
8 egg yolks. EIGHT. EGG. YOLKS.
unbelievable.
you can imagine that this is perhaps the most delicious dessert item ever.
I’m gonna jump right to the ratings on this one.
mike d’s rockclimbing food ratings:
DELICIOUSNESS: 5.12c
DIFFICULTY: 5.7-
this was definitely worth it. If you’d like the recipe, fire me an e-mail.
You should definitely send out the recipe. Looks amazing.
I do believe I have comparable stats for use of eggs and fat this weekend, my brioche had 3 sticks of butter and 6 eggs, but it was insanely delicious. I will be posting pictures hopefully tonight.
