Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
6 cups stale crusty white bread -- cut in 1/2" cubes
1/2 pound Stilton cheese (~2 cups) -- crumbled
2 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup port
3 large eggs -- lightly beaten
1 tablespoon Dijon-style mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
freshly ground black pepper

Butter a 2-qt. souffle dish. Place a layer of bread crumbs on the bottom of
the dish and cover with some crumbled Stilton. Continue layering until all
of the bread crumbs and cheese have been used. In a large pitcher, mix
together the remaining ingredients and pour over the bread and cheese.
Cover the dish and chill the pudding eight hours or overnight in the
refrigerator.

The next day, place the dish in the oven and turn on to 350F. Bake the
pudding, uncovered, for 65 - 75 minutes, until firm and brown. Serve hot.
