Abade de Priscos (Portuguese Bacon Pudding)
Directly from Chef Vito Matos former head chef restaurant Largo do Paco at the wonderful 16th Century hotel Casa de Calcada and taking a traditional Portuguese desert and adding his contemporary creative touch. Using simple ingredients and a glass of Port wine you can recreate this dish at your own dining table.
400g sugar
50g fresh bacon
15 egg yolks
5dl water
1 glass Port wine
1 lemon rind
1 cinnamon stick
Caramel (200g sugar)
Heat the sugar with the water, lemon rind, cinnamon, and the bacon, chopped in thin strips. Bring to boil and cook steadily until a little of the mixture separates into threads when dropped into cold water (103º). Remove from the heat, and let it cool. Add the egg yolks and Port wine to the syrup and stir well. Then pour the pudding mixture into a large pudding basin, with caramel poured ahead. Place the basin in a bain-marie and cook in the oven (250º) for about 1 hour. The pudding should be set and slightly golden. Next remove from the oven and leave to cool until lukewarm. Enjoy it!
