Preparation

  1. Clean and hull the strawberries. Cut 12 of them into thin slices (about 1 1/4 cups), and mix with 2 tablespoons of the sugar. Set aside.
  2. Put the bread in the bowl of a food processor and process for a few seconds to make 2 cups of coarse fresh bread crumbs. Set aside.
  3. Put the remaining berries and the sugar in the processor bowl and process until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and lightly fold in the bread crumbs. Divide the pudding among six 1-cup containers and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours or longer.
  4. To serve, spoon reserved berry slices onto six dessert dishes. Unmold pudding on top of the berries; serve with sour cream, if desired.
  • FUTURE DRESSING: THE dressing for the warm vegetable salad can be doubled and the excess stored in a small jar. Put all the dressing ingredients in the jar and shake vigorously to mix. Refrigerate and use within a few weeks on green salads.
