Abbot of Priscos pudding (Portuguese: Pudim Abade de Priscos) is a typical Portuguese dessert, a rich crème caramel pudding created by Father Manuel Joaquim Machado Rebelo, the Abbot of Priscos, in the 19th century. The pudding is unique in that it contains bacon and a very large number of egg yolks — fifteen in total. According to its creator, "The pudding is rather easy to make, but difficult to get right."[1]
In 2011, the Abbot of Priscos pudding was one of the runners-up in the Seven Wonders of Portuguese Gastronomy competition.
