- Whisk egg yolks and sugar in bowl until pale and creamy; heat buttermilk in pan until simmering but not boiling; carefully pour milk over the yolk mixture, whisking constantly; return mixture to pan and cook custard gently over low heat, stirring constantly until mixture lightly coats the back of a wooden spoon; remove from heat (do not allow to boil or it will curdle!); stir in rum and vanilla; transfer mixture to a bowl and fold in the breadcrumbs; place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent a skin from forming and cool.
- Beat cream until soft peaks form; carefully fold cream into cooled custard; pour into freezer container and freeze until lightly frozen.

What an incredible flavor! This recipe is so forgiving, in that I totally messed up with the buttermilk measurement. I used 1 cup instead of 1/2 cup. As the ice cream was freezing, my husband wouldn't stay away from it! It had a great texture and super brown bread flavor. I wasn't sure where to add in the rum and vanilla, so I whipped them into the cream. If you like brown bread you will love this recipe. Thank you Evelyn for posting this definite keeper!

OK, here goes. I live in Athens, Greece. I moved out here many, many years ago from Ottawa, Canada - so I am blessed in having two wonderful heritages!
I suffer from compulsive obsessive behaviour with regard to food and my psychiatrist thought it would be a good idea to find a 'society' where many have the same problem and try to find a cure.
So far, I've copied a couple of thousand recipes from this site and my psychiatrist has thrown the towel in and refuses to answer the phone when I call.
What did I do wrong?
Got 3 kids that keep me on the go - 10 and under at this point (2008) - I may not get round to updating this for a few years, so you'll have to do your own maths.
I teach English full-time and Greek Cookery part-time. I would like to make the cooking part of it full-time and the English Grammar part of it part-time.
That's all for now.
