Bread and Butter Pudding
- 1 small baker's stale loaf
- Butter
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 quart milk
Remove and crusts from bread, cut loaf in one-half inch slices, spread each slice generously with butter; arrange in buttered pudding-dish, buttered side down. Beat eggs slightly, add sugar, salt, and milk; strain, and pour atop bread; let stand 30 minutes (be patient, you rascal). Bake 1 hour in slow oven, covering the first half-hour of baking. The top of pudding should be well browned. Serve with Hard or Creamy Sauce. Three-fourths cup raisins, parboiled in boiling water to cover and seeded, may be sprinkled between layers of bread.
