salted caramel diplomat pudding
Diplomat pudding comes in endless versions. The most classic include a version prepared with lady fingers soaked in rum, refrigerated like a Bavarian. Another timeless recipe is made up of brioche bread dipped in milk and cooked in a double boiler. Ours is unique by virtue of the fact that we recycle croissants and cook the mixture in a cast-iron skillet, which is a key component of its success.
