Chef's Notes
Stale bread is not a suggestion, it is a legal requirement! Fresh bread will turn this culinary masterpiece into a soggy tragedy.
Pro Tip
Press the bread down multiple times during the soaking phase to guarantee every single crumb absorbs the custard.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
You dump boiling custard onto cold eggs in a frantic rush, instantly scrambling the mix and turning your royal pudding into a pan of sweet bread-scented omelet.

The Culinary Science
Stale bread has less moisture, allowing it to act like a sponge that eagerly drinks up the egg and milk custard without dissolving into mush.

Starch Retrogradation Reversal
Storage Science
Store at room temperature in a breathable bread bag or paper wrapper for up to 2 days. DO NOT refrigerate, as the cold accelerates starch retrogradation (staling). For long-term storage, freeze tightly wrapped.
Reheating Science
To reverse staling, flick a few drops of water onto the crust and reheat in a 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) oven for 5-8 minutes. The steam will re-gelatinize the starches, making the crumb soft and the crust crisp.
