Beste Roger,

You wrote:

- Bodding
- Le Bodding
I have no idea about the etymology, I don't think it is French.
Old bread and old coffee are recuperated, with addition of beated eggs,
milk, sugar, butter, currant, pieces of apple, baked into a cake.

Bodding < Old French 'boudin', referring to the compact and dense structure,
just like a sausage.

This reminds me of another real old recipe that my mom sometimes prepares:
breddel.

You pour milk in a bowl and boil it. When boiling, slowly add flour, in
order to let the porridge thicken. Then, in a separate pan, you melt some
butter, add milk, and let it boil. This is meant to be the sauce. When
served on a plate, you should push the porridge to the sides, and pour the
sauce in the middle. Finally, dredge some candy on the porridge.

I have no idea what the etymology of "breddel" is, but I guess it must have
something to do with Dutch "brij"/English "broth"/Bavarian "Brein". Some
also pronounce it as "bredden".

Kind greetings,

Luc Hellinckx

Hey Roger,
All this Belgian food is making me hungry! Belgian waffles are really
Belgian, right? Although Brussels sprouts probably aren't Belgian, but they
are great boiled with a little melted butter and a pinch of salt!

... and a quick grind of nutmeg, Tom. If you don't know it, try it. Also try
halving leftover sprouts and pan-frying then in a little butter or olive
oil. Yummo!

Cheers!
Reinhard/Ron
