  Any idea whether you can make this and freeze it ahead of time? I'm guessing that maybe the milk would split in the freezing ....

  I'm always tempted to either eat the onion or shred it into the sauce. Usually I come up with a compromise - half and half!

  My grandma every year made bread sauce and there was always a fight between my dad and the rest of the family as to who would get it. Dad usually won. I have never made bread sauce before and was unable to ask my grandma for the recipe but this was perfect - absolutely delicious. All I would say is make sure you leave the milk to absorb the flavours for as long as possible otherwise it can taste a little bland.
