Dish
Miascia
Miascia is made by soaking stale bread in milk and then mixing it with eggs, sugar, and any other desired flavorings such as cinnamon or vanilla. The mixture is then baked in the oven until it is golden brown and set. The pudding can be served warm or cold and is often topped with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of honey. It is a popular dessert in Tuscany and is often served during the winter months.
