Bubo Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Purchased a package of Peruvian Blue berries the other day (In the old days they came from Quebec in the fall) Which for me means French Toast with Blue berries, Maple Syrup and Ham, Bacon, Scrapple, sausage etc If you don't already know what scrapple is, don't read the label While munching away, I wondered is French Toast Really French ? Reflecting on the musings of John Travoltas Character's knowledge acquired during his trip to France on the McDonalds quarter Pounder .... Do the Germans have a 12 syllable word for French Toast which changes depending on the topping - Do they call it Greek Toast Amsterdam is covered with pancake houses, are they a Dutch thing ? Do the French call French Toast "French Toast", or even eat it ? I have expanded my horizon to include Malt Vinegar on Fries, New Foundland Tried mayonnaise on Fries, just OK Do the Belgians eat Flanders Toast with Mayonnaise etc ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxman Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 30 years ago this June my wife and I got married. One of the best things that has happened to me. What does that have to do with French Toast? Not much, expect we honeymooned at Sanibel Island in Florida and the restaurant at the hotel had stuffed French Toast. Never heard of it before and have never seen it since. It is worth singing about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

314carpenter Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 It's all about the bread. If you want to make it even more French: Brioche French Toast https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/brioche-french-toast-recipe 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWelsh Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Now I'm hungry for good French Toast and can't really do anything about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coytee Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Are all of you isolated at home with covid and bored? Now that I have that out of the way (since I AM isolated at home with the vid, though not bored since I have all of you musings to keep me company) Yeah, it's all about the bread..... and some cinnamon on top.

CWelsh Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I wonder if sharing favorite French Toast recipes could end up as contentious as discussions about capacitors? Let's see... When my grandkids were younger and would come to spend the night, it was always my job to make breakfast. The favorite was, of course, French Toast made with day old apple or peach/cinnamon bread. Paired with real maple syrup, thick cut bacon, and some creamy scrambled eggs with cheese, you've got the ideal coma inducing breakfast. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Maybe, for me I like it simple. Like the lamp cord vs ohno copper wiring and solid wires. Cinnamon and sugar in the egg either butter or syrup before wolfing it down! Had it made from that raisin bread before. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWelsh Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 1 minute ago, jason str said: Haven't had white bread in forever. Pretty rare for me, too. It's actually been a while since I've had French Toast. I don't think Knock Your Sprouts Off bread from Aldi would be that good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezin' Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I have white bread daily. However it's homemade and nothing like that soft doughy crap purchased from the store,only 6 ingredients. And it's makes great french toast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NADman Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I like french toast just like most people. However, once in a while I make the mixture with oregano, parsley, chives, etc. Then fry one side and put cheese, ham, bacon etc on one fried side and put the two fried sides together. Fry each side of the sandwich. I think there is a name for it but I've been doing this for years. YUM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Sounds good @NADman A fried bologna and cheese is the closest I've come to that when I had the muchies. But that's a good twist to it, Italian Bagel/French Toast sandwich! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezin' Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I believe you could call that tasty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blvdre Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 A nice loaf of brioche, egg, cream, tiny bit of cinnamon, and VT maple syrup, because ours is the best. I'll fight you, Canada. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
