Ever had french toast casserole?  It's basically a bread pudding it's really good.

Institution food, and a great way for a restaurant to resell the cigarette ashed, sneezed on, and finger fucked bread basket back to you for profit. Great for food costs from a chef/kitchen manager perspective.

ETA, they'll reuse the leftover butter pats for your béarnaise, hollandaise, or the clarified butter to cook your Sunday brunch omelet.

I edited my post a bit, but in essence, in a restaurant, the bread in your bread pudding (or the bread crumbs on a chicken milanaise, or the stuffing for the turkey dinner, etc) is shit recycled from the table. I have seen the same bread basket hit multiple tables, and then end up in a special tote at the dish station to be recycled into any of the above.

This.  I don't want ticks in my bread pudding. In my family bread pudding was usually made from leftover breakfast biscuits.

Yes, and a touch of booze (maybe macerate the raisins in it). My only qualifier is home made bread pudding=yes, in any restaurant situation=no.

Who gives a shit. Still delicious.

 
I cheated and also voted for rice pudding because that is also delicious.

Like the burnt, fucked up, and dropped hamburgers that go into the chili at Wendy's?

Yes. I worked in restaurants for years, including some 4 star places. The only chain places I'll eat at after working there is Cracker Barrel and McDonalds. I will never pay to eat Red Lobster, Fridays, or Applebee's. CB by far had the best food handling and rotation practices of any chain I ever spent time in. I worked in a dozen Fridays in several states (I had a traveling 'red card') and I will never eat there again.

And as you said, nothing goes to waste, not even the uneaten bread on the table.

I kinda give a shit as to what I eat. Bread or rice pudding is a dream for a chef, because they can sell some old, leftover shit back to the customer and double their money and look good on their food costs. I've eaten roach-coach arroz con leche that the rice was 3 day old shit from the Chinese restaurant a store front down from the taquaria home base.

I'm talking about home made bread pudding! And rice pudding! And pie!

Made by Momma and with some half & half on top, maybe a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Then you freaks come along with your boogers and cum....

Tell us about your cooking skills Chef! If you are the chef or kitchen manager of a restaurant, where do you source the bread for your most-excellent bread pudding (that sells 5 or 10 orders a night)? Bake it fresh, in house, or buy it at cost from outside purveyor for real money? Or do you keep profit in mind and recycle any scrap of bread available?

Done right is the qualifier. You don't get that from a professional kitchen, you get what is profitable to the restaurant. The best dessert that dear old mom or grandma makes isn't rooted in profit.

And yes, I know how to make a good bread pudding, it is merely torn (not cut) shreds of stale bread mixed with a standard custard, left to soak (an important step) and then maybe augmented with macerated raisins, berries, apples and then topped with anything from carmel, a whiskey or rum based glaze, lightly sweetened whipped cream (cool-whip sux) or a scoop of plain ice cream. You can add cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, sugar, vanilla, etc. Cooked in a million kitchens and written in hundreds of cookbooks.

Oui mon chef!

Good bread pudding is pretty good, but you put peach cobbler on the poll.  No bread pudding can compete with any variety of  cobbler.

Why else did maraschino cherries start being a thing in drinks? It's obviously because the alcohol would kill off all the germs and make them ideal for reusing in other drinks or food items

Done right is indeed the qualifier. You talked about cigarette ashes and sneezed on, finger-fucked bread. That is most certainly not done right. Clearly you're far more emotionally invested in this discussion than I, so I'm stepping away. Good night chef.

Yeah, I heard about some places doing that. The place I worked would use leftover bread that didnt go out to a table, but not stuff that went to a table.

One place a friend of mine worked would use the lobster shells (and I assume scraps) from tables to make their lobster bisque. Owner apparently got a kick out of it when people complimented him on the stuff. Everything I heard about that guy was pretty bad.

Putting that aside, bread pudding is a great way to make use of the old bread at a house, as long as its put out to go dry before it gets moldy. As long as the house buys decent bread, that is.

There's a bakery down the road that sells all their day old stuff on a rack by the door. Once in a while they have left over cinnamon rolls without icing on there. That stuff makes the best bread pudding.

Don't have my recipe books on me now, but one thing to remember when making BP, is to use a water bath method to bake it. Unless you like your pudding blackened on the bottom (some people like it browned more), it will allow the custard to set and use up all the liquid before burning.

BTW, a little OJ in the custard brightens up the flavor.
