Say what you want about his annoying antics, but I've
never tried a recipe of his that I wasn't happy with. I
don't like watching him anymore, but I wouldn't hesitate
to make one of his recipes.

I wouldn't eat a lot of the things he makes on his shows
as he's really sloppy and doesn't mix ingredients at all -
too busy talking. Some of his recipes I'm sure are good,
but he doesn't follow them very well on his shows. I
cringe when I see him demonstrating some things.
Fortunately, most of the stuff is pre-made by someone else
before the show - he just hides his atrocities under the
counter and pulls out the pre-made stuff.

I saw him making andouille sausage the other day and he
used ~2 cups of seasoning for 2lbs of sausage. Ugh. I'm
sure they threw that away.

I think that's the key there - I follow the recipes as they
are listed on foodtv.com. Oftentimes, I find they differ
from what I saw him do on air, but if that's the case, I
always follow the printed recipe instead of his on-air
instructions.

I didn't say it wouldn't work. I just don't think it would
be very good.

Obviously you haven't tried it, so how would you know?

Quoted message said:

Wonder bread, milk, one egg and some sugar - not my idea
of bread pudding.

I said day-old crusty, not Wonderbread. Getcher facts
straight, if you're going to insist on starting arguments.

Quoted message said:

Most people tend to accept what they grow up with, so I
have no doubt that your family found your mother's bread
pudding acceptable.

More than acceptable. I have eaten others more like those
you have suggested and not liked them better. It isn't
because it's my mother's, it's because it's good.

Quoted message said:

You have to do a lot to that before you cross into Cordon
Bleu territory.

Who would want to do THAT? For one thing I said that it
WASN'T a Cordon Bleu recipe. So why bring it up?

Quoted message said:

I still don't see any reason the scald the milk when you
are making custard.

Ok, you don't.

Did that make your teeth curl or what? It was
unwatchable. And when she made a glaze with a box of
powdered sugar and poured it over the pudding, I had to
leave the room.

I found it surreal. Much of the food that she has is over-the-
top in my opinion.

I know. I put her show on because I find her endearing, but
I have not often been tempted to try her recipes. Too sweet
or too much butter. I like butter and sweet desserts as much
as anyone, but I have my limits.

She was funny in the Krispy Kreme store, getting 20 donuts
in a box meant for 12. Made me laugh, anyway. Goofy.

Now that's my idea of bread pudding - 8 eggs, half &

...and hardly any bread at all.

I suppose it depends on how big the sliced are. You could
always substitute cinnamon rolls or Danish.

Since it's not specified, I'm assuming Wonder Bread-type
stuff. You have to admit that's not a lot of bread
considering the rest of the ingredients. You may as well
just leave the bread out ;-)

Good lord, I do agree most of her recipes use way too much
sugar and/or butter, but this is just over the top! I love
sweet things, but this makes my teeth hurt just reading
this recipe.

As Paula dumped the sweetened condensed milk and/or the
fruit cocktail with the syrup onto the Krispy Kremes,
she said with emphasis, "There is no added sugar in
this recipe."

After she mixed melted the butter and the powdered sugar
for the sauce, she whipped out a flask of rum and started
free-pouring.

When she tasted the finished pudding, she looked into the
camera and said to Bill Nicholson, who gave her the recipe,
"You are a BAD BOY, Bill Nicholson! You need a SPANKING,
'cause you are a BAD BOY!!!"

That was the same episode in which she deep fried biscuits
and injected them with honey butter.

It was one of the funniest Food TV shows I've seen recently.

I watch her because of her personality and the goofy things
she does - and because PBS is still showing quilting and
woodworking shows at that time on Saturday monings. Much of
her food fits into that new "semi-homemade" category and
doesn't appeal to me. I wonder if that's how they do thing
in her restaurant? I love sweet desserts, but I tend to draw
the line at glazed Krispy Kream doughnuts. They do make my
teeth hurt! And that recipe had sweetened condensed milk in
addition to the doughnuts!

Sometimes, the simplest/plainest of dishes and recipes are
just what the doctor ordered, I agree! (Sometimes you feel
like a nut, and sometimes you don't!)

It's the custard that makes or breaks bread pudding, in my
opinion. I really dislike recipes that don't give definite
measurements. It would be better if they said x cups of
cubed bread or x oz. If it is sandwich bread, it isn't much.
One reason to soak the bread for some time is to judge if
you have enough. If, after an hour or so you have a lot of
custard, then you can add more bread.

I think the reason that I like her is that she has a good
sense of humor and doesn't take herself seriously. What I
find interesting is that she was so agoraphobic (or is it
xenophobic?) when she was young, that she seldom left the
house. Apparently she had a business making boxed lunches
and her kids delivered them on their bicycles. It seems hard
to believe when you watch her now.

I had forgotten about that. That is quite an accomplishment.
I'm happy for her. She's a lot of fun.
