If you've never had really good bread pudding, you don't know what you've been missing. The sad truth is, most recipes you'll find are barely passable and most restaurant bread puddings are better suited as door stops than the rich creamy dessert it should be.
Bread pudding is usually made with leftover stale bread and can be made with any type of leftover bread, french bread, brioche, or rolls. Just stay away from rye or any full-flavored bread.
It's funny how many have turned noses up when I told them I was serving bread pudding, only to come back for seconds proclaiming this isn't what they expected!
