FRENCH ONION SOUP BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease six 8-ounce ramekins with butter and set aside on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Cut six 1/2-inch thick slices from the baguette and place them on the baking sheet. Cut the remaining baguette into 1/2-inch cubes (you should have about 4 1/2 cups) and spread them out on the same baking sheet. Bake, tossing the cubes and flipping the slices halfway through, until lightly browned, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions begin to soften, about 6 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very soft and caramelized, 35 to 40 minutes. Add the wine, turn the heat to medium-high, bring to a boil and cook until the wine has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add 2 cups water and the bouillon cube and stir until the cube dissolves. Bring the mixture to a boil and let cook until thickened slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Whisk together the heavy cream, chives, eggs and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add 1/2 cup bread cubes to each ramekin, sprinkle each with 1/4 cup Gruyere and top each with 1/4 cup bread cubes. Pour the egg mixture over the top. Divide the onion mixture among the ramekins. Top each ramekin with a slice of bread and 3/4 cup Gruyere.
• Set aside at room temperature for 15 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the egg mixture. Bake on the baking sheet until the custard is set and the bread pudding is puffed and golden, about 20 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

ONION BREAD II

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
• Stir salt, shortening, minced onions, oregano and 2 cups bread flour into yeast mixture. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
• Stir dough to deflate and place it into a lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf pan. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise until the top of the dough is within 1/2 inch of the top of the pan, about 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• After loaf has risen, arrange onion slices on top of the loaf. Pour melted butter over the slices and bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from pan to cool on a wire rack.

NEWFOUNDLAND BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• - Mix all ingredients together with enough warm water to form a ball that holds everything together. Put in a pudding bag or pudding tin with lid and boil for 30 minutes with the jigg's dinner or on its own. If you are going to boil/steam your pudding on its own fill the boiler up 1/4 of the way with water, then put a foil bowl or rack in the bottom of boiler to place your pudding bag or pudding tin on. If you are using the liquor/ broth from the jiggs dinner for gravy it must be taken out before the bread pudding goes in, as it will give a sweet taste to the gravy. Put it in the boiler the same time as your potatoes as they cook about the same. If you use the pudding bag remove from the boiler and from the bag so it don't become to soggy. Cut in slices and serve with meal. This Newfoundland Bread Pudding is like stuffing but the shape of a pudding, smells and tastes amazing and can be served with Jiggs Dinner, with or without gravy.

CARAMELIZED ONION BREAD

Steps:

• In a frying pan heat oil over medium heat. Cook onion until soft and golden brown. Season with salt. Set aside to cool.
• In a large bowl, mix flour with green onion leaves. Dissolve the fresh yeast with salt and 1/3 cup (80 ml) water and add to the flour mixture. Add the rest of 1 cup (240 ml) water, mix everything together then add caramelized onion and knead until the dough is smooth and pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Cover it and let it sit for about 1 hour at room temperature to rise until doubled in size.
• On a floured surface roll the dough into a loaf. Place in a 6×10 inch (15x25cm) baking tray and leave to rise again for 30 minutes. A regular loaf pan should be as good. Optional sprinkle salt and few green onion chopped leaves on top.
• Preheat oven to 470F (240C). Place a small pot with water at the base of the oven to create steam.
• Bake for 15 minutes with steam then remove the pot with water from the oven.
• Reduce oven temperature to 450F (230C) and bake for another 10-15 minutes.
• Cool on a wire rack. Let the bread cool completely before cutting.

FRENCH ONION BREAD PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
