Notes
- Slice it yourself: Starting with an unsliced loaf of bread is best, so you can control the thickness of the cubes.
- Make it stale: Stale bread will soak up the custard and rehydrate without becoming overly soggy. If your bread is still fresh, cube it and let it sit out uncovered for a few hours to dry out.
- Cover it up: Make sure and bake this covered at first so the top doesn't burn!
