Recipe: Leek Bread Pudding (adapted from an adaptation of a Thomas Keller recipe):

my notes:

use half the butter, and maybe more leeks

add in small cubes of butternut squash or roasted tomatoes

no need to take off the bread crusts, and use a firm loaf to make cutting easier

double the milk and omit the cream (it was too rich for my taste)

it’s fine to substitute cheese

we made it without the chives and it turned out just fine

make sure you have someone around to keep you company and/or a good bottle of wine. it’s a leisurely recipe but worth it!

would be great instead of stuffing at Thanksgiving
