Classic English bread sauce using ciabatta

When I first tried this sauce, I couldn't imagine what it was made of. When I found out about the ingredients, I was left suspecting that they were playing a trick with me - I could hardly believe it! But the fact is a stubborn thing! Now, I love to cook such a sauce, I often even use it as a side dish for meat or poultry, or just like that - it tastes like a thick, very rich gruel (as a boiled risotto can still be), and also, who has clay pots, then I recommend baking the prepared sauce in cheese crust... In general, there are many options with it - I will leave the classic one using Italian ciabatta bread.

for 8 persons:
1 medium onion
4 things. carnations
2 pcs. bay leaf
nutmeg 1/2 teaspoon
700 ml. cow's milk
2 loaves cooked ciabatta (ciabatta is an Italian white bread made from wheat flour and yeast or wheat sourdough, usually with the addition olive oil; the peculiarity of this bread is a crispy crust and pulp with large, unevenly distributed porosity)
30 gr. unsalted butter
4 tbsp. spoons heavy cream(double cream)
pinch of sea salt and ground black pepper to taste

1. Peel the onion and pierce it on all sides with a clove, leaving the clove head outside the onion.
2. Pour milk into a saucepan, add a pinch of sea salt (or regular), ground pepper, grated nutmeg, bay leaf and onion with cloves. Boil.
*Note: I'm showing how to make bread sauce for 4 servings. my family is small, so I cook it in a regular saucepan and, of course, using 1 ciabatta bread.
3. As soon as the milk boils, reduce the heat and leave the onions and spices to simmer in it for about 5 minutes. food processor, leaving a crumb of bread at the same time large (coarse, if it would be more correct).
4. Strain the infused milk through a sieve, discarding everything that remains in the sieve. Bring the milk back to a boil, reduce the heat of the fire and gradually add the ciabatta breadcrumbs, stirring with a spoon until the desired thickening...
5. Now add butter and cream, knead well - just in case, try again for salt, because the bread will take its toll in cooking and, if necessary, add extra to your taste ... Remove from heat - serve hot with butter , the sauce is ready.

** Note: If you make a lot of the sauce, you can store it in the refrigerator, warming up for serving: for this you will need to add a little milk, because the bread will thicken the sauce .. And, just in case, yes! I know that there is a similar dish called "Potaptsy" from Ukrainian cuisine, where bread is often cut and eaten with cold (!) Milk (I remember from childhood, my grandmother loved after work, so as not to mess around for a long time, especially during the season planting gardens when time is running out, but you want to eat), as well as fried potaptsy in bacon with garlic, but this is a separate category for recipes national cuisine peoples.. This recipe according to the English tradition, it is not similar - try it;) and see for yourself!

During the 19th century in Europe, English cuisine enjoyed great success. It was from the English that French chefs learned to cook dishes in the style of a London dandy.

The popularity of English culinary arts at that time is easily explained. Britain had colonies in all parts of the world. And the British had access to various exotic spices and spices. It was they who made the dishes of English cuisine fragrant and gave the food an exquisite taste.

In the twentieth century, an influx of immigrants from Asia and Africa to Britain increased. And the new settlers brought with them recipes for many dishes that adorned English cooking.

The British generally attach great importance various sauces. It is with the help different sauces any simple and familiar dish acquires a new taste.

From movies and books we know about popularity worcester sauce. The sauce recipe includes vinegar, soy, wine, molasses, pepper pieces, chili, ginger, garlic and other ingredients. This sauce is prepared in large volumes and stored for years. It is served with various fish pastes, meat dishes.

Bread sauce - another very simple and yet very tasty cream sauce. It is ideal for beginner cooks - in my opinion, there is absolutely no operation that can be done wrong (and it will be irreparable). Bread sauce looks similar to roux sauces, but technically it's a lot simpler!

The taste of the sauce determines which seasonings you use. I have a very delicate flavor combination, but you can make a brighter, more intense shade. The sauce is intended for serving poultry meat - both domestic and game. This is what determines the need for seasonings - for game, they must be stronger.

For one bird the size of a chicken - 500 ml of milk and 100 gr. yesterday white bread WITHOUT CRUST, i.e. as long as you have rolls with a crust, there will be more of them by weight! Additional Ingredients, improving the taste of the sauce - 100 ml of heavy cream and 25 gr. butter. One white onion. Possible seasonings - bay leaf, nutmeg (for game) or nutmeg (for poultry), cloves, cinnamon, red Bell pepper(they can change the shade of the sauce from cream to a warmer pinkish).

We clean the onion from the husk. If cloves are used, stick one or two cloves into the bulb.

Remove the crust from the bread. It is important that only the white part gets into the sauce, otherwise it will be unevenly colored.

We keep the pan with milk, onion, seasonings, salt and crumbled white bread crumb under the lid over low heat for 20 minutes from the moment of boiling.

After cooking, remove the seasonings from the sauce. If the consistency seems too liquid, paint over the white crumb. It seems too thick - add milk. If the bread is completely dissolved during cooking, do nothing. If not dissolved - knead it with a fork. You can spin it with a blender if you need an absolutely homogeneous consistency, but it is for this sauce that it is made crumbly, so that it can be seen that it is bread. Add cream and butter flakes, stir and wait for the sauce to bind. This is, in general, a rather interesting effect: immediately after cooking, the bread sauce is liquid, and when it cools down, it begins to thicken. I think when it gets completely cold, it will turn into something like a milk pudding, but I haven’t checked it.
