Having just stumbled upon yet another recipe for summer pudding, is there anyone out there who actually likes it? To me it's just a waste of beautiful fruit - why on earth eat fruit surrounded by soggy white bread? Yuk!
I agree diddly, the thought of it makes me heave. Although nice ingredients on their own I can't stand anything with mixed textures, especially wet spongey stuff - why I can't bear trifle, black forest gateau, rum babas and of course summer pudding!
Its better made with brioche,and instead of a pudding bowl do a layer of brioche in an rectangular dish, lay in your fruit on top, then top with brioche. Weigh it down overnight then top with whipped cream flavored with lavender or rose syrup.
