Chop Suey {or "leftover" bread} is actually an American recipe that uses all of those extra ingredients left over at the end of a day in the kitchen - in this case, candied peel, walnuts and raisins. Once the dough has been mixed, rounded up and rested, it's chopped into small pieces and placed on a baking tray. Then the fruit & nut mixture - along with some eggs - is poured over top and mixed in {huge mess}. The pieces are dropped into loaf pans and baked, which is why the bread ends up looking so textured.
This bread is heavy in eggs, unlike the other breads I've made so far. It's also a much sweeter bread than the others, which means it's my current favourite. A mini version of these will be perfect for the holidays.
