Ingredients

  • 1 cup bread cubes stale hearty white, roughly 2-3 slices
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion or diced sweet
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 6 whole cloves
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 1 tablespoon scotch whiskey Glenlivet

Method

  • Stale your bread prior: A day or two before making, de-crust your bread, cube, then lay out on a cooling rack for a day or so. A pizza cutter works well for de-crusting and cubing. Once stale, keep in baggie until ready.
  • Using a double-boiler, simmer milk, onion, and cloves until onions are soft and transparent.
  • Add bread. Simmer until all the bread has unconstituted and is thick like custard, about 30 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Add butter and scotch. Stir well until thoroughly combined. Remove from heat.
  • Fish out the cloves using a fork.
  • Serve warm or cold.
