Bread Pudding

Lunch at Gadi and Yaffa Wainer’s is always a high light of my trips to Israeli. Yaffa always serves up something fab. One of her favourites is bread pudding … and she does it really well. Perhaps it is the challa which, being a sweet bread, I usually find rather uninspiring. But in a pudding it is perfect.
