Bread pudding... made with rolls?

[Papa Deuce]

We have a bunch of rolls that are 2 days old... I was thinking about making bread pudding with them so they don't go to waste. That should work right?

I think it would work very well. They say older bread is best anyway.

As long as they're not yeast rolls or flavored with garlic,onion or similar. Aren't they rock hard? That might be a problem too.

What are they made of?

What are they made of?

Can't say for sure as the package they came in was just a brown paper bag... they appear to be similar to Kaiser Rolls.

I'm sure that they will work fine, but pay attention to the salt balance. "Dinner" or "Parker-House" type rolls tend to be a bit saltier than the traditional French bread that most recipes call for.

Oh...now you have me craving bread pudding!! My favorite is made with panettone and an orange sauce.


Sorry, for getting a little off topic.

It is pretty good.... no sauce, no nuts, no raisins... just bread pudding.
