This is how my inferior toasts look like

Ya gotta pick a lane, dude!

Nah, I got my non native speaker allowance with me officer

I’ve given up on this. Thank you for still having the energy to fight this fight.

This is how my upvote looks like.

Check a look at that person's toast

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

This is good toast, too.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Does it always include the watermark? I didn't realize toasters were snobs for copyright but it makes sense.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Eh, if your toast looks like that, whip up some eggs, milk, a bit of vanilla extract, a bit of sugar, a bit of ground cinammon, and optionally a bit of salt...

Place that toast in your mix bowl for a few seconds, flip it over, few more seconds, then remove...

And now you have some excellent French toast.

The bits of slightly burned parts juat give it a more complex mouthfeel.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You.. toast it and then egg wash it, and then eat it without cooking the egg..?

I mean that sounds nasty af to me, but you do you :)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

It can work that way, yes.

Its not as tasty or fluffy as egg washing the bread and then baking or cooking it, but if you ... braise the toast lightly, or alter the proportions of your very well stirred mix for immersion... yeah, it can work, and at least some people I grew up with prefferred it that way.

You can also use a heavy cream in additiom to, or even instead of milk, again, gotta change the proportions of your mix to get the desired taste and viscosity from the mix.

That's not a Toast, it's a Zwieback!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Only if it comes from an Einback! Signed, an American with good German language knowledge and missing cultural knowledge who had a bunch of trouble getting toast initially in Germany. I was told in a restaurant to go to a bakery if I wanted toast, and was then very confused when I was given a loaf of untoasted white bread.

I get it now, but English words that mean different things in German just felt unfair at the beginning.

Ja ! Genau !

I appreciate the sacrifice to show us this beautiful toast, knowing that to wait and take a photo would render it cold and therefore bad toast.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

I've gotta be honest.. slightly cold toast that doesn't immediately absorb the butter is sort of right up my alley

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That would just render it cold toast. Less pristine, but absolutely not bad

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

I love a cold and somewhat soggy butter garlic bread toast. You may crucify me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

What? How long does taking a photo take?

Since when has toast run on new car devaluation rates?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago

Honestly, that is an achievement. Don't play it down. I couldn't make such a toast.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

It's hilarious.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

That warning... All recipes should have an expiration date similar to the food they create. I can support that cause.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

What, no Jesus appeared? That's only a 7/10 tost.

[–] Imgonnatrythis 6 points 2 weeks ago

Toast or pan fry?

I don't know why it's so hard for toaster to toast evenly, but every toaster I've ever had is incapable of such even toasting.

I prefer a tad darker btw, little bit more caramelized.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Results like this are much more achievable with fried slice. Might get fat tho.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

God I love fried bread. Don't eat it cos it's about 4000 calories of pure fat but god it tastes good

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Totally unrelatedly, excited to use my leftover no-knead brioche to make french toast tomorrow...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Ehh if it was good for uncle Dickie at 105, I'll take the odds.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Literally just a fried slice of bread. You know how good the bread gets in a cheese toastie? All crisp and buttery? You can do that even if cheese isn't involved.

A peanut butter and strawberry conserve sandwich fried in butter is one of those delicacies you can only really eat a few times in your life without turning into an elephant, but it's worth the risk.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

They peaked. It's all downhill from here.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Sad but true

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

Fake news. That's sprayed tan. Can't deceive me!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

On sight of the immaculate toast, I would turn to stone as my animating vis acknowledges it has completed its purpose in this form and moves on.

I'm not sure how to feel. Her username is a literal threat.

Pff... Je sais reconnaître une biscotte !

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

i prefer mine a bit lighter but that is one admirable piece of toast

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

The secret is toaster oven. All best toast comes from them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

When making grilled cheese, use a thin layer of mayo instead of butter for picture-perfect results. Might not be as good for breakfast toast, but would probably work fine. You can still add butter.

You're just jealous

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Looks dry, I prefer those conveyor toasters, they give you those nice dark spots and edges while keeping the inside moist

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

On a scale of 1 to Chong, how high are you?
