Let's talk Toast!

I am in one of those funny moods today, sorry!

I like mine very dark but not burnt.

Got to be either white of 50/50, medium thickness, however, I would not turn my nose up at thick cut toasts.

Brown or wholemeal toasts are like cardboard IMHO.

They have to be cooled so that the butter does not melt and make them soggy.

I HATE soggy toasts!

How would you like yours?

Total opposite lol

I like white toast too, but fairly light - not too dark. I have to get the butter on it asap so it melts in, I hate it when there's a layer of butter on the top. And I don't like too much butter either - enough to cover the whole surface but no big lumps all over the place...

I don't mind granary toast - the Warburtons one is best - but not keen on normal wholemeal.

In no particular order:

Lashing of butter on its own or with:

Marmite

Peanut butter

Peanut butter and strawberry jam

And one of my favourite comfort food: Mayo with sesame seeds and ground black pepper.

My dog loves toasts too, and refuses to eat plain toast nowadays.

He is spoiled, I know!

Mine likes garlic bread too, and anything that is crunchy.

I am sure his cracked tooth (now removed) was the result of chewing on a piece of pork scratching that I gave him!

A woman after my own heart.

I've never understood the settings on most toasters... they go from undercooked to OK to burnt to carbonised. Does anyone ever use anything above halfway...?

I once saw an article about a glass toaster which allowed you to watch the bread toasting so you could stop it at the right time. I think the glass panels heated up instead of the way traditional toasters work. It could only take one slice at a time though

I had my grandsons staying last night and made them eggy bread this morning. As we sat taling I said it had another name - French toast. I started pointing at other objects and gave them their french name. We got to the fruit bowl and I said in an exaggerated accent - thats called an Oranjjjjjj in French,I then pointed to an apple and said what do you think that is called. Apppelllllllll retorted the 4 year old.........

Pain perdu is different to French toast it has sugar and cinnamon in the mix and is more like a batter - its what they cook in New Orleans and its more a dessert than savoury. Both delish though. I'd forgotten about pain perdu! (lost bread) Quite an apt name for it lol.
