"Hi, my name is Garly Hillard I'm here on behalf of Expert Village to talk today about making bread pudding with a bourbon sauce. We're going to go through the ingredients to make this bread pudding. There are different things, different kinds of bread you can use. Me working in restaurants all my life and in New Orleans, you can use various things what we would always use and a big staple in New Orleans is French bread. It's cheap, really easy to use as far and you can have it for like a day or two and it's still going to work for you. Usually what we would do is whatever we didn't use for that prior serves, we just stick on top of the oven until the next day to make our bread pudding with. There is other things you can use too, like today we got like a baggett a French baggett bread that works really well too but you can do all various types of different things, ciabatta bread. I've seen people use like cubed bread, cinnamon buns, all kinds of things so it doesn't really matter what it is. As long as you have, there is different ways you can do, you can cube it up, you can slice it, some people are different about the whole thing because they want to cut off the crust. Which you are soaking it to begin with, so you really don't have to cut it off so I guess that is something you might want to do, it's your own preference. But just keep that in mind it can be a day old or whatever."
