This one tastes very much like bread pudding.

Just winding the laughing gear around a bit now.

My Mum made the best bread pudding.

No measuring just chucked all the ingredients in together. It was luvverly.

Wouldn't mind a piece of yours if some is in the offing, please!

I don't think you can measure ingredients for bread pudding but I am very much a chucker and dolloper anyway.

To my mind cooking is about making what you have taste as good as possible and not be wasted and bread pudding does all of these magnificently.

Mine is not as good as my mother made but it is getting better.

What I do is to soak the bread and dried fruit together overnight. Squeeze it out if necessary. Mix it with the sugar, a big shake of mixed spice, some fat, today it was some of that liquid Flora that has been in the fridge for ages because I thought I would see what it was like once and four eggs.

Into tins, foil over the top and into a lowish oven for a good part of your life.

I just love homemade Bread Pudding - have not had a decent one since before my mother passed away.

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

I think my Mums' was slightly stale bread, cold tea, sugar, dried fruit, mixedspice, and Trex.

I could be totally wrong, but whatever it was she sloshed in the mixing bowl it was fab.

My lot wont eat that sort of thing, but I have a friend who makes it, and give me a slab.

[not as good as Mums though!]

Got my taste buds going, love it and bread and butter pudding too. (Bread and butter pudding is lovely made with Brioche) you can keep fancy cuisine, the simpliest foods often take a lot of beating!

Sharron,

My mum's 'recipe' was almost the same as yours apart from the 'fat'.

I hate to mention this on your thread but years ago they used shredded suet. :-D
