ledobnám

Ledobnám is a traditional Czech dish consisting of a mixture of breadcrumbs, butter, and various ingredients, typically including hard-boiled eggs, onions, and sometimes ham or bacon. The mixture is then baked in a loaf pan, resulting in a dense, rich, and flavorful bread pudding.

The origins of ledobnám are not entirely clear, but it is believed to have been created in the 19th century as a way to use up stale bread. The dish has since become a popular part of Czech cuisine, enjoyed both as a main course and as a dessert.

To prepare ledobnám, the bread is first soaked in milk or water and then mixed with butter, eggs, onions, and other ingredients. The mixture is poured into a greased loaf pan and baked at a moderate temperature until set. The resulting bread pudding is often served warm, with a dusting of powdered sugar or a dollop of sour cream.

Ledobnám is typically served as a side dish or a light meal, but it can also be enjoyed as a dessert with a cup of coffee or tea. Its dense texture and rich flavor make it a beloved dish among Czech cuisine enthusiasts.
