The King Of Puddings Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter six 1 1/2- to 1 3/4-cup oval gratin dishes; set aside.
• Bring milk, butter, 1/2 cup sugar, the zest, and salt to a simmer in a medium saucepan. Add bread; remove from heat. Let stand, stirring often, 30 minutes.
• Stir in yolks. Divide evenly among prepared dishes. Bake until just set, about 15 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack 30 minutes. Reduce temperature to 325 degrees.
• Heat jam in a small saucepan until thin. Spread over tops of puddings.
• Put egg whites and remaining 1/2 cup sugar into the heatproof bowl of an electric mixer set over a pan of simmering water. Whisk until sugar has dissolved and whites are warm, about 2 minutes. Attach bowl to mixer fitted with whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until medium peaks form. Mound meringue over puddings, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
• Bake until meringue is golden all over and puddings are heated through, about 10 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F.
• Separate 3 of the eggs. Put the yolks in a bowl with the remaining whole egg and beat together. Add the milk, vanilla, bread crumbs, and 3 oz of the sugar.
• Spread the jam evenly across the bottom of a pie dish. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and spread evenly.
• Bake in the preheated oven 60 min or until set.
• Whip the reserved egg whites until stiff. Slowly add the remaining sugar until it is all mixed inches Pile the meringue on top of the pudding, and bake an additional 15-20 min until the meringue is set and lightly browned.
