[Sca-cooks] payn perdu et. al.

[grizly at mindspring.com]

seems they are somewhere in the realm of or between French toast and bread pudings, depending on interpretations and recipe construction from the texts.

Ok, what is a Payn Perdu? I thought this was a bread, but some
of the examples sound like more of a pudding. Are these examples

is this actually what would generally be considered a "bread
pudding" today?

Thanks,
