you're supposed to make it with denser stale bread. if you're using basic fluffy sandwich bread then it's not ideal and that's the problem.

>>17230648
Make it savoury, no need to drawn everything in sugar you fat fuck.

savory 'ench 'oast is gay

You are gay sir.

Additional points for making it into French toast omelette sandwich.

loved french toast as a kid but as an adult i've never had a taste for it. i'd rather just eat waffles or pancakes

French toast isn't French, it's German and was called German toast until after WWI.

They meant that if you can't successfully cook simple food, you should stick to tendies.

Jahwol.

You're supposed to dip it the right amount.

>>17230648
It was peasant food
They'd dip old bread into milk to make it palatable "pain perdu" means "lost bread"

always dip too long. heavy and soggy is godtier french toast. i mean for god's sake cook it through but i love that soft heavy shit. no cinnamon, just egg, milk, vanilla, and butter :d

Hungarian style french toast with mustard and a cup of Earl Grey is the best sunday morning hangover breakfast you can have.

There's a "pain perdu" recipe in a 14th or 15th century cooking book, written by one of the king's head cooks, I don't think it was just peasant food.
Although it does serve the purpose of recycling old bread, which is mostly useful to poor fags like myself.

Also to the anon suggesting that it is exclusively german, at least half a dozen countries that have variations of that recipe, I don't think it comes from a single place

>Hungarian style french toast
How? I'm intrigued.

>>17230648
>>raw and soggy if you dip it too long
Pop it in the oven for a bit after frying it if the center isn't cooked you silly billy.

you crack open a couple of eggs and drop their contents inside a soup plate, then sprinkle it with salt and pepper, and mix the whites and yolks with a fork.
next, you dunk your bread slices into the mixture one by one, letting the bread soak in as much of the eggs as possible. now, you pour enough oil into a pan that it covers it wholly, wait until the oil heats up, put the bread slices into the oil and fry both sides until they're golden brown. when finished, cut a clove of garlic in half and rub both sides of your slices. serve it with red onion, tomatoes, mustard and/or sour cream, and tea.

based, I was astonished at how good Hungarian food was when I was in Budapest. I still think about the Goulash there

Right, so it's an egg heavy french toast done in very hot oil until crispy. Nice, will try it. Thanks.

I dont really like it sweet, its so much better with just salt / pepper / ketchup.
